Well… great hunch! I moved out all assets folders and was able to open the original file. I then moved back and replaced every asset file and could save a new version file, which went down from 1.93 Go to 10.1 Mo… So that was the perfect solution, thank you very much for your efforts and advice!

So first of all: thanks! I can now open it, but only with the beta version of Publisher – I figured that's what you exported it with. I could work with that, but is there any way I could export it again to open it with the standard version of Publisher? Just in case I wouldn't want to be stuck with the beta on this file.

Thanks, that's… good news? Would you consider save it as a new file and send it back to me? My guess is it would be much lighter and I would probably have more chances to open it.

Uploaded, thanks!

Hi, I've been trying to open a file that crashes Publisher every time. I was able to work as expected on this file some months ago, but didn't have to open it until lately. It's a very large file: 1.93 Go… I honestly can't remember if it was this heavy when I could open it back in April and/or why it got so large (you can check its last exported PDF attached). I get no error message, Publisher just hang on for a while before crashing. I'm currently on MacOS 10.15.7 with a MacBook Pro (can't remember exactly but probably updated since the last time I worked on the file), with Affinity Publisher 1.8.4 PK installed. The file is currently sitting in a Dropbox folder so I can easily share it with you, in your Dropbox or mine, whichever suits you best. Thanks for your help! TropheeDore_1.1.pdf

OK je comprends beaucoup mieux… Je n'aurais pas imaginé qu'ils iraient aussi loin dans le traitement typo, ça part d'une très bonne intention et je serais ravi de cocher à nouveau cette option s'ils arrivent à le faire fonctionner en français (même si, on est d'accord, ce n'est pas indispensable). Merci pour l'explication !

I'm on 10.14.6 and I'm having the same issue. The only workaround, as said elsewhere on the forums, is to uncheck "Support language dependent single typographic quotes". The weirder part, as you can see in the attached gif, is that despite the unchecked option french quotes seems still perfectly managed (I mean THANKS AFFINITY for automatic spaces). ___ Je suis sur 10.14.6 et j'ai le même problème. La seule solution, comme dit autre part dans le forum, est de décocher "Guillemets typographiques en fonction de la langue". Le plus bizarre, comme vous pouvez le voir dans le gif ci-dessous, c'est que bien que cette option soit décochée les guillemets français restent parfaitement gérés (MERCI AFFINITY pour les espaces automatiques).
