- starting with a 312 page document, just text flowing in two columns - use "document -> add pages" to add two empty pages (no master page) at the beginning of the document Result: - the two empty pages are added - text disappears from all other pages (master page is still assigned) Expected result: - for the text to stay in the document System: macOS Sonoma (14.0) Affinity Publisher 2.2.1 disappearing-text.mp4

You can also wait for the official patch to version 2.2 and leave the beta program after updating and before beta 2.3 starts.

That is what I’m saying, but I cannot share the file.

It's about 160 pages with about 60 different text styles and about 150 images. The "<>" that needs removing are leftovers from HTML commands that are spread throughout the text. As I haven't had any find-replace issues in the version 2.0 and 2.1 and fewer find-replace commands in 2.2 have worked fine, I'll update the post above as soon as I have found the cutoff point when it stops working. I remember InDesign having something similar a few years ago, find-replace stopped working in texts with more than 10.000 characters and it messed up the ,replace' part by adding the numer "1" to the replaced text after the limit was reached. Fun times. 🙂 Update: Cutoff point seems to be somewhere about 1.500 results.

I am having issues with find and replace of mor than 9.000 results of "<>" in my document. Publisher stops responding when clicking "replace all". Replacing them one-by-one works, so I'll manually replace a few hundred and try to find out where the line is where it crashes. Bit annoying, though ... 9300 results -> stops responding, needs restart 6800 results -> stops responding, needs restart 5000 results -> stops responding, needs restart 2500 results -> stops responding, needs restart Cutoff point seems to be somewhere about 1.500 results.

Thank you very much!!!!

When I select graphic text an place it anywhere on the page, Publisher creates a text frame of exactly the size of my text ... would not actually bother me, but it also applies the text frame background color that was last used (even when from a different project).

Thanks for looking into,this, Dan. I’ll play around with the text document later this week and reply with my results here.

I have noticed that whenever I place a PDF file, then use the properties bar to trim it to the TrimBox (or any other box) and finally apply text wrap, the text wrap always used the CropBox which means the textflow is too far away from the PDF and sometimes the columns left and right of the PDF are affected as well (depending on the Cropbox size).

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that www.qoppa.com is running a 50% discount for their PDF Studio software. I have not tried it myself (trial is currently installing), but the release notes say something abour colour separation.

I always used a plugin called "IndexMatic" in InDesign because the on-board-function was a bit limited.

Jedes Objekt ist eine Ebene — ist etwas anders als gewohnt, bringt aber einige Vorteile. Statt ‚Ebene‘ denke einfach ‚Objekt‘, dann hast Du Dich schnell dran gewöhnt.

Automation for this would be nice too, by the way — it‘s possible to search a single Topic in the whole document but not to automatically create an index (or a base) by searching and placing index markers for the whole topic list.

Because it‘s quicker than taking my customers list and typing it in one by one?

Does anyone know if and how it's possible to import a text file into the Index panel (I've got a list of appx. 200 topics and don't want to add them manually if at all possible)?

A Designer document with several artboards. When placed in Publisher, the aboard-selection is mixed up (see screenshots; selection shows "lerbuecher", document shows artboard "schulferien" -- second screenshot is from Designer, showing the artboards and names.

1) create artboard 2) create background object (same size as the artboard, e.g. a background) 3) create some other objects, place them on the artboard 4) create second artboard 5) select "artboard" tool from the toolbar 6 click on first artboard and observe layers --> The Artboard tool selects the artboard as well as the background object

Hi, do any of you know what the "link Dropbox" feature in the section "Linked Services" of the preferences panel is for? Is there a different between using this and simply syncing files via the normal Dropbox in the Finder/Explorer sidebar?

... but it's not.

No

Seven. And I just lost an image I've worked on for an hour.

In the German version of Photo 2, the feature "save reduced" (pops up when saving JPG or TIF images in the original format after editing is translated as "Speichern mit Ebenen" which translates to "save with layers" ... exactly the opposite of what it does. Please fix as soon as possible!!!! The correct translation is either "Speichern ohne Ebenen" or "Reduziert speichern"!!!! Edit: This issue popped up when using the "edit" image button in Publisher and then switching to the Photo Persona.

I have encountered several cases where the ,Find' feature did not find strings of text I could easily find in the document with "search" feature of a free PDF viewer. This usually occurs when searching for several strings in a row (e.g. search "string1", then "string2", then "string3" and so on) ... at some point the software just stops finding things.

I really do like version 2 of all three apps -- I do believe though it would have been good for the software to go through a public beta cycle, same as version 1. While I have not found any ,showstoppers' and the software runs stable for me, I already filed four or five bug reports during the past few days; This is way more than I ever encountered in the later stages of version 1. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for one or two hot fixes and for future updates that (in additon to new features as promised) also fix these things that are slightly cracked (not broken, just ... a bit annoying).

When searching for ,glyph' in the help menu, the path to the Glyph Browser is shown as "Text -> Glyph Browser", which is wrong. I needs to show "Windows -> Text -> Glyph Browser" because the features has moved.
