I'm working in magazine edition and I always need some different Text frames. Ex : 2 cols, 3 cols with a differents gutters, with or without baseline grid, differents vertical positions, etc... Any chance to save Text Frame presets (like Style for character or paragraph) ? Thanks for feedback...

Hi Guys, I have just updated Affinity Publisher in Version 2.6 and the first thing I see is : No more trouble with embeded PDF visualisation ! Thank you so much for this solved issue ! 🙂 You rocks !

Hi @Lee D. Thank you very much for your consideration of this issue. 🙂

Thank you very much for your follow-up

Yes ! it looks like when PDF are integrated (not linked) this issue is solved. But I would like to keep PDF linked (for the final size of my APub file stay light). Any chance ?

This is not so easy to do : This issue is with all PDFs imported in all my documents (that page was only an example) All PDFs are not done by the same person (differents agencies, differents kind of PDF imported) It happen even with my own PDF But I did the experience : Open that PDF in publisher and save it as a PDF 1.7 and re-imported it in my document. Still the same issue on display... Sorry

Hi @Hangman OK here it is ! Just the page 19... + image (the PDF) + font p19-affinity-forum.zip

Hi @Hangman Thanks for that fast answer Actually, yes Zoom in and out fix that display... unfortunatly not each time. And turning off the hardware acceleration did nothing at all. BTW I have tried a lot of differents parameter there before posting a topic - Did i mentioned that only occured with PDF (not JPG i.e.)

Hello everyone, I have been working on a magazine regularly with Affinity for over 2 years now. I've always had this display bug, but maybe one of you has a solution? The advertisements imported into the documents are mostly PDFs. When I save my document and reopen it the next day for example, the PDFs are never fully displayed (see screenshot joined). I have to select the frame and move it (one arrow up, one arrow down) to be able to see it in full again. IF one of you had a solution to make it display normally upon opening, that would be really great 🙂 Thank you and have a good day.

Hi @Shelly I'm usually using this tool to vectorize picture : https://www.vectorizer.io/ Then I get My SVG on which I'm working on Publisher. Here's what your picture give in SVG with that tool : IMG_9699.png.b0f72ab8b43e46fa722366903a8ad993.svg

Just to support thomaso 's topic, I would also like to add that I'm generating magazine from publisher to PDF. They have a lot of photos in (You can see an example here : https://issuu.com/paoproduction/docs/cnc-bilan-2020-issu ). What I did : Ask my printer for PDF version and colour profile (actually PDF 1.5 (Acrobat 6) - Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004) ) Generate the PDF Check it with PACKZVIEW (with this app, you can check colour by layers CMYB and see if everythings fit with your need (example, Texts in Black only) Send the PDF to the printer I never had an issu using this way...

For your information : 1 years later, I still meet this problem on version 2.3.1 of Affinity Publisher - Mac OS. https://share.cleanshot.com/Qr6kkWmZ @Catshill tip works, but I'm not sure this is THE solution - It should simply not happens, don't you think so ?

Hi Affinity teams and users... I began my job before computer (yes I know, that makes me a dinosaur ) At that time, I had an editing technique (photogravure and offset editing) that I really liked. I lost it with the arrival of computers in our profession to have this kind of epileptic gesticulation instead. Added today Apple announces the arrival of the Apple Vision Pro and I see there the possibility of finding a gesture more interesting than this shaking of the mouse. In short, all this to ask if you ever considered lending your software to this new working tool? I know it's probably a big chunk, but just to know if it would be possible, even in the distant future? Thanks in advance for considering this old dinausor paper who plan to work for a few more years, so...

Hi Guys ! This issue is still here and it is really not easy to work with that! Could please consider that bloc text can be selected ONLY when cliking on the bloc text and not on the line height of the text ? This would be really great !

Hi Alfred, thanks a lot for your fast feedback :-) You rock's!

Hi guy's from Serif. Sorry to ask this here, but what is the font you use on this image (https://affinity.serif.com/fr/publisher/#top) Thanks by advance for the info

@Mariusz_F I agree with point 1 : Using tab to modify value in crop tool is weird. This issue is also in other apps of the suite, but sorry i had this issue this morning and can remember in which app for which window.

What about merging documents with Numbers (Apple) files ? Is that not you that say "Ultimate compatibility. Want to work with other file formats?" in your ads ?

I get a regular key @IndigoMoon! Do not ask me how : I just don't know And I can tell ya : A good alternative to Adobe Acrobat, at least for what I need : checking the colors layers before sending to the printer.

Hi @IndigoMoon, thanks for the tip. I have just tried for a key too. Waiting for the answer

Thank you so much for this tip @Pedrober, i was so much looking for a solution! Actually I don't understand why it is not the Font Manager which handle this. Any idea ?

Hi @Chris B, thank you very much. I will wait for your feedback with devs then.

Hi, I'm using the "Export" dialog from Photo a lot. FOr my Web jobs. But the "Export" dialog box has a strange behaviour that is very annoying... When I "Save" or "Save as" a picture, there's no issue : I can catch and move my dialog box, i can resize it and "Finder-click" from "Default folder" is working very well (cool, because this is a very helpful tool). But as soon as I'm using the "Export" dialog box, all of this feature are not working anymore. You can have a look at my sceencast, it is probably more specific https://www.dropbox.com/s/sfoav2kosxtuzpo/affinitphoto-dialog-box.mp4?dl=0

Hi Boris thanks for suggestion, Do you know if you can check colors layers with this (CMYK) ? I had a look at the link but did not find any info about this point. It's a shame it is not Mac OS compatible
