[Affinity Publisher Crashes]

Hello everyone,

I need help here. I do not understand why Affinity Publisher V2 crashes on a simple book cover I created. I was going to make a correction, I wanted the text on the back cover instead of the front...that's all...  but it keeps on crashing as I open it. Platform Mac Catalina 10.15.7 (MacBook Retina)

Now I wanted to add that Publisher has crashed quite a few times over other documents I created - notice - I do not think I am asking too much of the software.

The cover is a simple picture with a title on the front and some text on the back cover... I didn't even put a title on the spine yet 🙂!

Solution?

Thank you for your response. I already went the avenue of section manager. I end up with the same result so far... I may not understand it all since I am fairly new to Publisher...

[pages numbering]

Hi,

I have an issue here. I have tried a few "number" of things but I do not seem to get through to what I need to do. I have set up my document -a small pamphlet- with about 24 pages. I divided it in three parts. I have made a number of master pages to  set up text boxes for titles for the three parts. I need page numbers at the top for the three parts eg: 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc then 2-1. 2-2, etc then 3-3 and so on. The way I set up these top numbers is by typing 1- or 2- or 3- and then entering the page number through fields. This works great. (although it may not be "right"...)

But I also want continual page numbers at the bottom of the pages. I have made a separate master pages for these. This is when the issue happens. Whenever the bottom page number changes to greater 1-24 the top number keeps on counting the same way. I wish though that the top number would just stop counting when the first part is done and then restart at 1 for the second part (or segment) and so on.

I also observed that one method follows the other; I mean when I use the section panel to restart numbering to another section the bottom number follows that one too. So instead of having the number 24 at the end of the document I have 6 or 8 depending how long the last segment was.

Any way around this?
Sincerely asking, 😕
