Same problem since I upgraded to Catalina (on an external SSD) The "export to Print (for print) instead of the Print (X-4)" tip from Mike Demana did not work for me, but the "convert typefaces to Curves" worked fine, thanks Radim108 (see screen capture of the dialog, in French 😉) Patrick

Thank you Ulysses for this quick answer But I can't find any option to deactivate the dithering: this could help to decrease file size even more (with some local color changes of course), because of big surfaces with one color. In my workflow, I'll have to use Designer to layout my figure, then export to png-24 or psd, open with PhotoShop and export to png-8 with non-dithering ("Sans tramage") settings Regards, Patrick

Hi First, may you pardon me for my approximative english, it is not my native language ;-) I am a happy user of Affinity Designer/Publisher/Photo since a couple of years. I have switched from Adobe, and I have been earlier a heavy user of PhotoShop/Illustrator/InDesign (20 years) until the monthly fee. My question is about the presets of png/gif export on an image in Designer : in my webdesign workflow, I use a vector program to create tables or charts and I export them in jpg/png/gif ; I need to keep little weights. I have noticed that such images generated from Designer are often heavier than from PhotoShop ... My question: is it possible to access fine parameters like in PhotoShop? In PhotoShop it is possible to choose a color reduction method (perception, selective, adaptative, ...), and the dithering method (without, diffusion, pattern, ...). In Designer, the only choice for png is png-24 or png-8 (with diffusion)... and the expert window don't have these parameters I join screen captures of PS : under the "1." the export parameters of PS ; under the "2.", you can see that when exporting an image with and without dithering, there is a significant difference : in my example, setting the dithering to "none" gets an image from 310,1K to 165,4K (all other settings are unchanged). I would like to know if it is possible to do that with the Affinity Suite? Or maybe make this suggestion to the development team ;-) Best regards, Patrick
