AD Assistant Manager
Jens Krebs replied to pjglad's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
I'm going to have a look tomorrow, but last time it needed it, it was still there (I remember, because I find the name 'Assistant Manager' very amusing). -
Sync Font/Typefaces for Designer
Jens Krebs replied to Chiyonosake013's topic in Affinity on iPad Questions
There is a font menu in the settings and you can import fonts from all the same cloud drives you can use for opening files too ... not really a ,sync' but a solid font installation feature. -
Sometimes, stomping off dramatically can be quite fun and satisfying -- as can be sneaking back in loafers later and enjoying the fuss that was made.

iOS 12 Developer Beta makes performance in Affinity Photo unusable.
Jens Krebs replied to metroidmen's topic in Bugs on iPad
No, the beta testing agreement clearly states that the risk of some things not working is the users -- technically, there is no 'need' to update AP until the final version of iOS12 is released in September. -
I would still enjoy having Designer and Publisher on my iPad, because for me it would be nice to some small adjustments directly at the customers office or do sketches in the park or garden (using the iPad instead of pen and paper).

Bleed settings - why are they available?
Jens Krebs replied to CPritchard's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
1) You can see and snap to the bleed, when you deactivate the option ´crop to artboard / document´ in the view menu 2) You can set PDF output with bleed and cropmarks in the PDF settings dialog by clicking on ˋmore' and ticking the according boxes 3) You may also ask "How can I ..." instead of "Why can't I ..." -- the first version is more polite and also gives people less chances to troll you with answers like "Because I'm not telling you how" or "Because you are [insert insult]" :o) -
Library Software to work with Affinity

Pixave works well for me (www.littlehj.com). -
What will Publisher NOT do that Designer DOES do?
Jens Krebs replied to GarryP's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
If you have a close look at the teaser video, it shows Designer and Photo buttons in the upper left corner. MattP has teased that he's not allowed to say what they do but that it's never been done before and that it's really exciting (this in somewhere in the Affinity Publisher Teasier Video Post) ... so I'm sure there's going to be some REALLY tight integration. -

Jens Krebs replied to GarryP's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Currently EXISTING. More serious: Watch the teaser video, it shows a couple of things. Otherwise no-one knows what will make the first version yet. Be patient for just a little while longer and all your wonderings will be addressed. -
Currently, there is no beta; Looking on how fantastic the Photo for iPad introduction at WWDC went last year, and considering how quiet the developers currently are, I expect some news on or around the 4th of June.

That is a very good question. :o)

AD export to PDF, text with font Roboto Light is destroyed
Jens Krebs replied to 4dimage's topic in Bugs on Windows
Maybe the font file is broken or wrongly coded? -
No it isn't. Corel Draw has implemented some features that are similar to things that people need for professional page layout but that's it ... Corel Draw is a great software, but nowhere close to a page layout application. Sorry.

AD export to PDF, text with font Roboto Light is destroyed
Jens Krebs replied to 4dimage's topic in Bugs on Windows
Converting all text to paths takes exactly ONE mouse click in the PDF export settings of Affinity and you don't have to change ANYTHING in your file. Also, please note that I said, that this is not an ideal solution, it was just my attempt to help you with a workaround, until the problem has been resolved. -
Sketchbook Pro 8 for free
Jens Krebs replied to GRScott's topic in Older Feature Requests & Suggestion Posts
That's great news -- I really liked Graphics but abandoned it out of principle, when autodesk bought them out. -
AD export to PDF, text with font Roboto Light is destroyed
Jens Krebs replied to 4dimage's topic in Bugs on Windows
Have you tried exporting all text as curves (you find the option under the 'more' button of the PDF presets -- not a perfect solution, butnit might help you, getting files out until there's a fix for this issue. -
cfurlin, you might want to change your subscription to "monthly" with the option to cancel anytime in August. ;o)

To be fair, no one could expect it to not be cold and rainy in England in mid-April ...

Edit bitmap in Photo from Designer file
Jens Krebs replied to gabriel_komorov's topic in Older Feature Requests & Suggestion Posts
This feature is actually already built in: select your image in Designer, then go to the main menu and click on "File -- Edit in Photo ..."; Same goes the other way around. On my machine, this doesn't work properly, but most likely because I'm running a beta of macOS. :o) -
Microsoft Windows Developer Awards 2018
Jens Krebs replied to Mark Ingram's topic in News and Information
Me too ... keep my fingers crossed for you guys. You deserve every award available for rewriting an awesome macOS application and keeping all features as well as most of the 'snappiness'. -

Easy templates for simple trifold brochures
Jens Krebs replied to KitKat1947's topic in Older Feature Requests & Suggestion Posts
Hi John, I quickly assembled an empty template with the following measurements: A4, trifold, each side 2 pages with 100mm width, 1 page with 97 mm, 3 mm bleed all around. Careful: I have placed (and named) the front page (= dartboard) at the BOTTOM, so that the pages are in the right order when you create a PDF for printing. Also make sure to delete the blue boxes before printing it. When printing, simply select "crop marks" in the PDF settings and make sure that the bleed is included. Hope, this helps. a4_trifold_template.afdesign -
Have you used the export persona and created four ,slices' or do you use four artboards cobbled together?

Hurray! Thanks, Tony. :o) And now on to a nice, early beta of 1.7 ...?
