[[IDML Implemented] How can I open Indesign (indd and idml) Files in Publisher?]

8 minutes ago, Franky Drappier said:

I tried it a moment ago out of a CS 4 document on Apple iMac (Sierra) - it copied everything correctly however it did split the body text up into separate textframes for each line.

Hope this info is of use.

Question: is there an easy way to change the hyphenation to Dutch? (I think I've read here and there that people use some Libreoffice file to enable this?) If not, I'll patiently wait untill it becomes standard.

Love the software so far! Love the fast pace with which improved Beta versions are coming out. Thumbs up!

Hyphenation (Czech) on Mac works for me this way.

There is a missing element at Master spread pane...

[File Size with linked files as big as with embedded?]

41 minutes ago, carl123 said:

Linked files do not as yet appear to be functioning as linked files and will always be embedded thus increasing the file size.

Hopefully this will be corrected in a later beta

Same for me. I have two documents with same two pictures just each with different preferences (embeded / linked). File size is still the same.

[Affinity Publisher Public Beta - 1.7.0.58]

Image placement policy. I'ts great the possibility to choose which way you prefer. I'm sure that more obvious for layout's making is Linked preffered and in some rarely cases people choose embeded option. I vote for swapping those two “options“ – default Linked preffered.

[Affinity Publisher Public Beta - 1.7.0.58]

Thanx for update of AP. I realized that I can't switch off the Edit guide tool. It's still active and guides are unlocked.

Totally agree. Even better if bleed could be defined in the new files dialogue.

Yes, I vote for this.

[find and replace options]

On Windows (but not, apparently on Mac at this time), you can Find "- " and Replace with nothing by:

1. Clicking in the Replace field and typing a character
2. Backspacing to delete the character
3. Then using Find and Replace (or Replace All) as you would expect.

This seems to be another case that works on Windows but is broken on Mac (along with, in that dialog, the missing Find/Replace icons to allow use of the invisible characters).

(Note: I'm not sure why typing and deleting a character in the Replace field should be needed, but I'm not sure that's a bug.)

Hi Walt

I tried to do it on my Mac but it didn't work. The FIND is working and jumps from one error to another but without chance to replace for „nothing“.

Anyway thank you.

Dutch hyphenation missing

Try this

 

[Guides Manager]

Yes, please! Layout app must have it.

[Columns on pages]

I Vote for easier setting number of columns and space between them. It's common for layout oriented apps. Current state is a bit tricky for me.

Anyway good work, lads!

[Preflight panel?]

Yes! Strongly vote for Preflight feature.

It saved my a*s many times.

[Span Columns]

Yes, please

[Screen Mode in Affinity Publisher]

Vote for that guys!

 

[find and replace options]

Find/Replace suggestion

I received text full of mistakes like is shown in attachment. I didn't find any possibility how to find (in my case) hyphen+space and replace it for none character in whole document which rejoins all that incorrectly hyphenated words . There is just step by step manual work. 

[Lock Guides]

Right here

Works for me too on Mac! Thanx to pgraficzny.

 

 

 

I'm sorry, I did not notice it was a 'Mac' topic. I moved to the 'Win' topic.

A solution for implementing the Polish dictionary. Download the files downloaded from https://donate.libreoffice.org/home/dl/src/5.1.3/all/libreoffice-dictionaries-5.1.3.2.tar.xz?idx=2 and place them in the place shown in the screenshot. You can probably use this method for other languages.

 

[GREP find/replace]

Same for Czech typesetting. GREP is really important feature...

[Lock Guides]

I found It!  Enable/disable guides editing. Great! Same function for Designer, please.

[Language settings]

Hi

Is there a possibility how to correctly set hyphenation for czech/slovak/polish language?

Thank you

Martin

[Lock Guides]

Hi guys thanx for this beta, it looks great!

 

My suggestions:

- Lock guides (also in Affinity Designer)

- Package whole document

- Implementation of GREP

- Implementation of Nested text styles

- Make master page from actual page

- Import or place text from Word, tables from Excel

Sweet mother of all that is good and pure!
