mswift reacted to MikeW in Span Columns
And span columns isn't just useful for headings. They can also be used for pull-quotes and more.

mswift reacted to iaing in Span Columns
Columns in text boxes is good, but option to Span columns, so that a title can span the 2 columns of text it's above, without having to make a separate text box for the title please.

mswift reacted to 000 in Affinity Publisher Tutorials
People who are interested in testing a non-production beta version of a specialised professional DTP app, should in my opinion know what they are doing. I expect the tutorials for the final release to be of the same great quality as for their other app. "Failing" is a very negative word.

mswift got a reaction from Puck in How do I collect my linked images in Affinity Publisher?
Hopefully this will be built into AP before it comes out of BETA.
Collecting all placed images and fonts for sharing and archiving, essential for me at least.

mswift reacted to Phil Martin in [Implemented] Publisher does not recognize WORD .docx files!
I need to import .docx files and do not want to resave them as RTF. Briefly, please -- what file formats can be used for import or drag-and-drop?

mswift reacted to Chris_K in [IDML Implemented] How can I open Indesign (indd and idml) Files in Publisher?
@Gabe Logan
Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums
It's not possible yet. There are plans to be able to open IDML files in the future
<mod edit> IDML not INDD file clarification was made in an edit on 6th July 2019 </mod edit>

mswift reacted to dries in Object styles suggestion
Object styles would be very handy. Alternatively it would be nice if the 'color picker' is also a 'style picker' also matching fonts, strokes etc.

mswift reacted to five31 in Publisher: Data Merge Support
I just downloaded the Publisher Beta. It seems super promising. The one thing I use a ton with InDesign though is data merging. I immediately looked for that in publisher but it is nowhere to be found :(. Please add this in.

mswift reacted to ch1ptune in [Implemented] Is it possible to package a project in Publisher?
Coming from InDesign, I was particularly looking forward to seeing how Publisher handles links and packages. So far I've gathered that it embeds resources by default, but that you can release the embed and change the setting to linked in the resource manager. But is it possible to package and collect all files as it is in InDesign?
Say you have a very large document with 20-30 GB worth of links and you want to send it over to someone else to finish the project. How would you go about that in Publisher? Will the document file size be 20-30 GB in that case? Sometimes I send the InDesign file without links to other people, so they can see the layout. In that case it would be quite cumbersome to include all resources. And what if you only wanted to send a couple of the linked files - how would you easily access those files from within Publisher? I don't see a "Reveal in finder" option for linked files.

mswift reacted to tariq in anchoring tables (and images) into the (reflowable) text
having a tables feature (with proper styles) is great
but I can't figure out how to anchor the table into the text .. so that if the text moves, the table moves with it .. I guess the same question applies to inserted images..
this is what I meant earlier on here an on twitter - Publisher needs to be more than Designer with pages .. it needs to take into account workflow for longer texts .. so if I add a word on page 3, and that causes text to move all the way down to page 293, the images and tables etc need to move too..
is it the case that I just can't find how to do this?

mswift reacted to DingesDesign in Bleed on document setup
Hi,
first of huge fan of the fact that I can almost trow out my indesign. Props for Affinity!!
What I noticed when creating a new document in AFP is that you do not have the option to enter the amount of bleed you
want on the document.
This is to be found afterwards in under: File -> document setup -> bleed
would we nice to have this in the new document creation dialog as well

mswift reacted to CusumanoCasper in [Implemented] Data merge
I use the data merge tool daily to create QR-codes in a batch or load data into a pdf. I think this is not present in the beta build?

mswift reacted to rui_mac in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone.
My name is Rui Batista and I'm a graphic designer from Portugal.
I started out a LONG time ago, using Illustrator 1.0 and, after that, FreeHand 1.0
Ever since Adobe "killed" FreeHand, I have been forced to use Illustrator and I hate every second I use it.
I have been searching for viable alternatives and, finally, it seems that I found one. Affinity looks amazing. And at a reasonable price. I can't wait for its official realease.
