Since I posted it so late in the night, I coment in the post to put it up in the activity list. does it happened to anyone else? do you know if I´m using wrong the feature or is. bug? Thanks in advance!!

Hello! I have encounted a bug with PDF and Affinity designer. Multiple instences of a same PDF linked (each instace showing a different page of the PDF) to a Designer document shows the same page when saving and then reopening the document. When i link a PDF to a document, duplicate it multiple times (so i can see multiple pages of the PDF), an then reopen the document, the views of the linked PDF shows the same page instead of a diferent page in each instance of the pdf as i set up in the first place. Olso when changing one of the dulicated views fron pasthrugh to interpretate, an then save the document, Designer crashes (The issue does not happend when enbeding the PDF to the Designer document) I made a video of the issue here: I will link the pdf document i use for the example (but i have tried with multiple ones and same result) Affinity designer 2.4.1 - Windows 11 - 23H2 - AMD ryzen 5 , rtx 3060 12gb, 64gb of RAM Grabación 2024-04-01 000848.mp4 Publisher Manual Sep 18 2023.pdf

Thank you so much, that was it! But doesn´t make more sense to limit te color gamut of vector elements by the color profile you are using? that way the entirety of your artwork reacts the same when switching color spaces, independently of using the color whee, sliders... so you can use the more confutable one to you and each one is operating in the same gamut as your document Is there any option to implement that in future releases affinity team?

The issue is that when I create a CMYK document in this case color profile FOGRA 39 (I´m in Europe), and then I want to convert it to sRGB the colours changes a lot. It´s like if it is not doing any conversion. I´m using perceptual conversion of colours in the settings, and when using the same in adobe apps the colours don't change. Olso doing it in Affinity Photo via convert format/ICC profile selecting manually sRGB and perceptual makes the same results, huge color changes. Here is an example of the problem: when converting a this blue color from CMYK to sRGB the saturation of it goes up by a lot changing the color compleactly. Happends on all apps, 2.4 version, Mac OS, apple silicon M1 MBP 2020 8gb ram Here is the video: Grabación de pantalla 2024-03-14 a las 11.03.38.mov

Hello! I need more info, whitch program are you using?, can you share an example document? If i have to guess it may happend because you are using a settings layer on top of your vectors. When exporting it forces rasterization in order to show the adjustments you have applied. Hope it helps, have a nice day!

Hi, there is nothing wrong whith the pdf ether with the document. The effect is caussed because how printers work: Printers lays little dots of color on a page, for shading them (making darker or lighter the color) it separates or joins the dots together. Problem: your shadow color is composed of more than black and it creates this unwanted effect Solution: Create the shadow with color pure black: 0 C 0 M 0 Y 100K (this might reduce at maximun the unwanted effect)

It might be that Designer export the canvas taking in account the pixel grid. In order to avoid this issue: 1) make your logos biger, it might be so small and the cropping issue is to evident when export. 2) Align all items to pixel grid. 3) Try to export as an artboard, dont use the export persona, sometimes the export persona (at least for me) presents this issues. Have a try, best regards!!

Hello!, Might be the color settings. Enter in edit > settings > Color . Then make sure you have this settings: Olso make sure that in the document settings you have set the document to RGB/8 and color profile is SRGB IEC61966... . If you have that like it it should work fine.

Hi, can you provide an example file of the issue to further investigate?, I had this issue before, but was hidden text in the text frame that was detected if i remember.

That will be amazing to have. Sometimes when you have similar colors it becomes a little bit tricky to know who is the one you need without the Hex value.

does anyone have the same error, or know why this happend?

When using layer FX on windows, moving the objets become very slow and chopy, as seen on the video. It´s like the rendering take to much. Olso the CPU ussage goes up to 100% Instantly at the same time that the GPU is at arround 20-30%. I´v tried this on 2 diferent computers and same results, apliying FX layers result on poor performance. Meanwile on MAC OS, its the oposite, very smooth the whole time. I dont know why there is so much diference in performance, since the PC should be more capable (at least in spects) than the MAC, and if it´s posible to improve the windows version of the programs in order to improve performance.

Affinity Publisher and Designer version 2.2.1 very poor performance when moving objetcs arround a document. The error ocurrs when you have missing fonts in the text frame that you are moving.

Thank you so much! it was that, i dont even knew the menu exist and i dont understand how i change the ignor alignment with base grid setting

Problem: Text do not align with base line grid in Affinity Publisher. Previously created text boxes function properly with base grid alignment. New text boxes ignore the base grid no matter what. I tried with no text styles applied and with text styles that had align with base grid enabled, and it style not align with the base grid. I have to say that it seems like a document related issue, I tried to replicate on a new document and it works fine. The issue is present on Mac and windows, Affinity publisher 2.2.0. - on Mac im using an MBP base model m1 2020 PC: ryzen 5 + 16gb ram + RTX 3060 12GB I leave the document here and also a video showing the error. I have been able to replicate it as long as I use this document. [NOTE ] When coping a new text frame who has the error from the document I posted here to another document, the error persist on the new document where the text frame is pasted.
