    Just one thing missing… ability to measure curves and shaped lines… very important for precise laser cutting work. 
    Please bring this feature. 

    You can use cinema4d for that. You don't need to buy it. Just run it in demo mode.

    Before to do that, one precision :

    Work in 72 dpi in AD

    1/ Export your draw > eps

    2/ Open it into C4D. Respect the scale factor (Enter 3.528 because internal measures in Adobe are in points… One point is 0,3528mm)

    3/ Select the path you want to know the length

    3/ Go to Mode > Project Info > Structure

    That's all !

  2. Adding a button synchronisation between name and pantone would be great :

    Global color <> Pantone XXX becomes Pantone XXX <> Pantone XXX

    But I can understand this philosophy. We can have a Pantone color for a tittle and a very similar Pantone color for a sub-tittle for example. In this case, I'd rather have "tittle" (global color 1) for Pantone 01 and "sub-tittle" (global color 2) for Pantone 02.

    I remember in InDesign, it was sometimes hard to know which pantone was used because we can't rename it. Pantone is a Pantone.

    So the trick was to add a new color with same CMYK attributes and rename it : "Pantone XXX - tittle" for example.

     

    I've also noticed a bigger problem. If you import a AD file with global colors, APub doesn't detect any of them.

  3. My english is very poor. I prefer write the less…

    Fortunately, I still have Acrobat Pro 9 to see what happens.

    You can rename "Pantone XXX" > "Donald Trump" if you want, or "Johnny Rotten" in APub, Acrobat will display "Pantone XXX" !

  4. Create a shape

    Assign a pantone

    Duplicate the shape

    Assign another pantone

    Duplicate the shape one more time

    Assign another pantone

    And so on.

     

    1/ APub creates a new palette "document" with the first pantone. OK but the name is not "Pantone XXX" but "Global color 1".

    We need to rename it.

    2/ Others pantone are ignored. We need to create them manually.

    3/ Although shapes 3-4-5, etc have others pantone, they all have "Global color 2" !!!!

    We need to click on each global color to correct it.

    Pantone and global colors are very confusing and not user friendly. I hope you will change this in next releases.

  5. I have resolved my problem. Two pages are now one page and numbers are ok.

    After changing the format, little troubles : thumbnails of pages are wrong but if you click on each, it becomes ok. There were lettrines at the beginning of every chapter and they have disappeared but when clicking on text and add a letter, they reappeared.
