walt.farrell reacted to a post in a topic: How to fix "missing font" when exporting publisher to PDF?

"Are you following the instructions and starting from the Find and Replace panel, then using the Cog icon for the Find field? " Thank you. Sorry for my late reply, but since there were just a few spots that I had to replace fonts, I just did it manually. But I've noted that for future, which will help going forward.

Missing doesn't seem to be an option for me: Am I in the right menu? The only place I've seen "missing" is in the Font Manager, and all you can do is locate one at a time and then manually change it. It would be nice if one could do find and replace missing and unwanted fonts directly from the Font Manager panel. Here's another screen capture to show that I get the same result after locating the missing font:

[Is the reason your printer wants PDF/X is because they have an ink printer? If so, the printer would need to be told how much of each ink is required to get black. Since your images and I assume text is gray scale, could you make your document color profile CMYK and then export it to gray/8 or 16?] Oops, you did try that. Never mind.

I'm on a PC running Windows 10 and I'm getting a preflight error "Document color profile not suitable for PDF/X. Yet it does export gray scale and I started with color images. I got the error selecting either gray/8 or gray/16 in document setup. The document does export grayscale for both doc setups. When I export, I do have to select convert color spaces, otherwise it doesn't convert to grayscale. So here's my suggestion, if you haven't selected that option because you started with gray gifs, select it anyway | or if you do have it selected, unselect.

I added a text frame to a page and created a style that I want to use throughout the document. Now I want flow the frame across multiple page and have them linked at the same time instead of having to do it manually for each page. I created one text frame and style but couldn't drag it through the page panel. The one thing I could do would be to create a master page with the text frames already existing, but I would still have to link each text frame--manually, even with the holding the ctrl key down. I tried to link the master page (using facing pages for print) and the linking was rather bizarre. It's not a big deal for short articles, but it would be with long articles or books. Aside: I could automatically generate linked pages with PagePlus (Serif's legacy publisher) buy simply inserting the text into a text frame and it would propagate automatically.

walt.farrell reacted to a post in a topic: Publisher2 master created with an older release
-
I didn't want to play with what I had until I published, but was finally able to get to it today and all I had to do was uninstall Publisher 2.0.4 that existed in my start window. I was already running EXE on both so didn't have to uninstall both and reinstall the latest version. Thank you so much for setting me straight.

I don't remember exactly how I installed the updates, but I did it when I got the email about release 2.3. Here's a screen shot of the program files folder: When I double click the afpub file that I last saved with Publisher2.3 from what was started in Publisher2.1: I get this: and when I close this window, I get this: Which suggests to me that it defaults to the earliest release of pub used to start the afpub.

OS is Win 10. I created a master for my publication with release 2.0 and I'm now on 3.0. If I open Publisher by double clicking the master it looks like the older release is active because I get an update message. If I open the master from Publisher, there are no update messages. Is there a way to update the master without having to recreate it? ETA: If I try to open a file that started with the older Publisher release, but was modified with the latest release that I have, I get this message:

Yeah--it worked. I thought I had done that, but I guess not. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
