Can I open/import Indesign Files into Publisher?

[Affinity Publisher Public Free Beta Available NOW]

Thanks Guys.

...on first tryout it looks like your efforts and the long wait has been well worth it.

[Affinity Phone Home]

Hi

I was just wondering why whenever I launch Affinity Photo or Affinity Designer there is a request to make a connection to:

s3-1.amazonaws.com ?

 

[Affinity Publisher]

An excellent summation. And with the looming release of High Sierra there is now a real need for A Publisher.

I know you don't need another when will it come post but by all accounts running InDesign CS6 on AppFS is a no-no so you may have a few more impatient queriers soon.

High Sierra could be the big game changer. We really need Publisher soon. No pressure then.

[Affinity Publisher]

By the by is anyone still using PageMaker?

[Affinity Publisher]

Page Plus is for Windows, not for Macs.

Publisher will be ready when it's ready.

Stay calm and keep the faith.

SOLVED!
Hi MEB
You were correct there was a blockage.
My error, a connection was blocked by Little Snitch.

[I can't update AD and AP from the App Store]

Hi

Yes... I've restarted, reset, signed out, signed in to no avail. I spent ages chatting to Apple geniuses.

I updated Sierra on November 24 with no probs.

I'll try your method.

[Can't download Photo update]

Same problem

Updates showing as available but will not update

Apple geniuses say there could be a compatibility problem with Sierra 10.12.1

[I can't update AD and AP from the App Store]

Hi

I spent most of yesterday afternoon trying to download the latest AD and AP updates from the App Store.

The App Store says the updates are available but when I try to update I just get the grey spinning wheel in the top left corner of the panel.

The only reason the Apple geniuses could give, after endless chat, was that the updates are not compatible with my machine.

I am on an iMac running Sierra 10.12.1.

Any clues?

[Sharp nodes' handles]

Same question... how can I drag handles from a "sharp" node?

[Pantone and spot colour support ?]

Affinity Photo... can't wait!

[Vector output]

Thank you Matt

Really enjoying AD :)

[Vector output]

So raster shading or textured fill used within a vector drawing, exported as an .eps, will be infinitably scalable?

[Vector output]

Am I correct in assuming that when you add raster shading you can then no longer export as a vector file with vector benefits?

[Opening Freehand Files]

I have tried adding .fh11 to old Freehand MX files (that had no suffix), as suggested, but they just lose their thumbnail image and still refuse to open :(

But I have just duplicated and added .eps to an old Freehand MX file (that had no suffix) and it opened successfully YAY!

I look forward to a fix.

I think that it will attract even more Freehand users.

[FreeHand tools & FreeHand file-open?]

I really would like to create vector brushes from vector shapes.

[Brushes are killing me.]

Love AD so much, but the brush deal is really keeping me having to go back to AI. I'm having such a hard time creating simple vector brushes. I know I'm probably way too frustrated to see things clear or even try to perhaps. But why is it so hard to achieve a simple stroke like this with the pen tool? I tried pretty much everything. If anybody has any answers or solutions it will be greatly appreciated because I'm on the verge of just giving up. For what I do, these two strokes are a must. I tried making them and they become grey and cannot change the color nor convert them into curves.

Is there no way to create vector brushes in AD?

[Ability to create vector brushes]

I regularly created and applied vector shapes / brushes to a path in my illustrations back in Freehand days. Gives more control of the shape than just using freehand vector brushes.
