Hi, I very much want to be able to take this course, however the UDEMY site could not process my payment, from a card I use for everything else, including online purchases from this same computer. I loaded the Udemy app on my iPad thinking that I could get it via an in-app purchase, but when I searched for your course, it was no-where to be found from within the app. However, other Affinity related courses were. If you wouldn't mind talking to them, as soon as I can find it within the app, you'll have sold another. The regular web purchase failed in a manner that left me disinclined to attempt it again. Thanks

Thinking about it, I really don't need to read the Help files offline, being able to access them online from my iPad would be fine. The issue now being that they're only accessible from within Affinity, which of course, isn't on the iPad. As they look like webpages, having them be a link on your website, password protected and only for registered Affinity users, if that's what it takes, would be of great help in learning the ins and outs of this program. So to be very clear about what I'm asking. I would very much like to be able kick back in my reading chair with a cup of coffee and study the Help files at my leisure, however that might be brought about quickly and would be an acceptable stand in for not having any other documentation.

Reviewing the Help files it seems that they're very comprehensive and if you just unpacked them as they currently are and make them available as a single downloadable PDF document, that would certainly fill the bill. While I suspect that you're trying update and 'perfect' them, I'd remind you of the saying: "Excellent is the enemy of Good". I need help learning Affinity now, an excellent guide in six months will be of no use to me. One way or another the problem will be solved, either I'll have mastered it or will have returned to the Adobe fold. Whereas a good guide now would be of great value and save me much frustration. Given that everything is already written and in proper order, I can't imagine that this would be more than one days worth of work. Honestly, I can't imagine it'd take more than an hour or so! Doing this would in no way preclude you improving it later. BTW- I am working my way through the Videos, and while good, there are limitations to the video format in terms of referencing and reviews of specific concepts. Also optimum learning styles vary and not everyone learns best via video presentation. As I'm also in the midst of converting to the Mac after almost 30 years as a PC user, I'll mention that the first thing I did was purchase the 'Missing Manual' for El Capitan which has been vital and saved me countless hours and great frustration.

The Help files seem to form the comprehensive book that I've been wanting. While I do intend to use them side by side as I'm working with AF, I do learn best by reading. This being the 21st Century, I'd rather not have to sharpen a goose quill and manually transcribe them onto parchment in order to kick back in an easy chair with a cup of coffee and go through all the features. Is there some reasonable way to get all the Help onto my iPad so I might study them offline? Thanks
