2 million users now.
A specific keyboard for Affinity line of products would be welcome only if they make it a mechanical one. These are way better then any cheap keyboard.

I hope that adobe doesn't come with money to Serif to buy it ... Like Macromedia
Adobe killed that one off just fine...

This sounds like the type of thing that would work and be helpful.
And yes, it perhaps is more of a Designer feature. I've not really used Designer all the much, but perhaps I need to have a bit of an explore and see what it can do.
This is an option available in Microsoft Visio as well. You can set the scale/factor and draw schematics.
Defenately a Designer function.

try affinity.serif.com and scroll down. You should get the live screen.
This link: Live should work for the live Affinity Publisher launch...

I am a beta user of Affinity. I set my alarm to watch the Launch and unfortunately had a support call lasting 2hrs. So I have missed it. Can you set up a Youtube video of the launch for those of us who missed it.
See Patrick's comment above...

I have purchased Publisher immediately after the first anouncement. But where can I find a download link? Not in my account at the Affinity website.
Log in to your serif account and go to downloads and license keys. here you'll find the downalods and if need be the registration keys.
Also the fonts etc. to download.

Congratulations Serif on launching Affinity Publisher!
The Studiolink works great.
For people using the beta's. For the Studiolink to work you must install the retail versions from your download page, then the link works.

Downloaded from de Mac App Store.
Thanks
Where can i found "BONUS - RetroSupply Co. Font Collection"? or is this Affinity Store Only?
It should be available in your serif account. That is, for Windows.

Installed without a problem.

Excellent to see the FC1 of this, just as I wanted to tackle something a little chunkier with it.
However, I see the persona buttons STILL don't work. When pressed, it references the fact it's a beta - I thought it was meant to be FC1? I'm running .384...Am I missing something??
The buttons for Designer and Photo will ONLY work in the release version of Publisher and with officially purchased copies of Designer and Photo and with CUSTOMER beta's. It will NOT work in PUBLIC beta's...
Quote from Patrick Connor:
"be aware I said customer betas, those released after we launch to preview fixes and more new features. The PUBLIC betas 1.7.0.376 won't ever show those personas, indeed it will stop working."

FC1? RC1, means release candidate 1...
Software installed without a problem. Can start Publisher up without any problem.

Tourmaline, can you suggest a stepping off point to 'clone' the Photoshop interface, so to speak? Thank you.
In EDIT-PREFERENCES-KEYBOARDshortcuts you can alter the shortcuts the way you like, like the ones you're used to in Photoshop.
In VIEW-CUSTOMIZE TOOLS you can customize the tools the way you like.
In CUSTOMIZE TOOLBAR you can customize the UI as you want it to be.
In VIEW-STUDIO you can check wich tabs you want to see on your monitor and arrange them the way you like.
So, Affinity Photo is highly customizable.
-
You can't make Affinity look exactly like Photoshop.
Some shortcuts are allready the same as Photoshop's. It alsways takes some time to invest in a new program.
By the way, all shortcuts are fully customizable...
-
Thanks for the beta tester special discount.
I allready pre-ordered Affinity Publisher.

It was announced several time ago that a feature roadmap will be published after APub's initial release. Since we are still in beta this is the reason why it is not there, yet.
d.
Thanks for the heads up.
It seems I misses this one.
I allready pre-ordered Affinity Publisher.
-
I'd like to see a Publisher feature roadmap so we can see what features will be included, like footnotes/endnotes etc.
Just like the ones Serif has done with Photo and Designer.

That helps with default "open with" behaviour, but the file format is identical and shared, leading to being able to open one file extension in the other applications
I know that internally they are the same, just different format names.

There's no "Publisher" files, because the fileformat is the same in all Affinity suite (Designer, Photo, Publisher)...
afpub, afdesign and afphoto. 3 different format names.

Install a SSD drive into your computer, upgrade your cpu and/or upgrade your memory to at least 8GB or better 16/32GB.
Cleaning up Windows might help as well but won't gain that much. Hardware will improve speed much more.

However, I'm curious why it's only for linked raster images, and not also for embedded raster images. Is there any further information available about that?
Could have something to do with the Photo persona?

We believe this has been addressed in the latest (#371) beta build. Please retest this behaviour.
Confirmed. It's fixed.

Have this same issue on version 371.
Happens on any document I create as new.To reproduce... create a new document.
Add a table with just one column and three rows.
Enter text into top most cell.
Copy and paste text into second row.
Third row grows down page.
The more rows you have and the more rows you paste into the bigger the last row gets until it drops off the bottom of the viewable area.If you try to resize the bottom row height it eventually hangs Publisher which has to be killed off and restarted.
I can't replicate this.

It shows Designer and Photo previews but NOT Publisher previews...
I have all 3 working in Windows 10 explorer though.
