Stes

OK. I got it. I was choosing preset PDF (press ready) and it uses colour space CMYK, no matter which compatibility is chosen. Changing colour space to "As document", like in PDF/X-4 preset, works as I needed. Thank you. I use 1.8.5.703 Publisher on Windows 10.

Thank you. With TIFF works just fine. It doesn't make sense for me. Why can't I place .afphoto in Affinity program to have this working? It's like PSD wouldn't work properly with InDesign.

My document is in CMYK/8 format.

No, I don't see this option.

On my PC with 32 GB RAM and AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Publisher crashes very often (at least three four times per hour). Usually while placing images or updating them. 😐

How?! 😮 I've been trying for about two hours to achieve this. Grayscale bitmap turns to rich black at every export. I've run out of ideas. mercury.afdesign test.afpub Parker_M_B&W.afphoto

The files are prepared properly in my opinion. It was me who needed slap in the face I've overlooked settings in preferences (although I am sure I've set colour profiles to my needs after installing AP... 🤨)

Thank you! Thank you very much. I thought that it was enough to set the colour profile in document settings only. 🤦‍♂️

Supplied logo. Two colour job in CMYK - after export only M and K are needed.

Wow! How?! After my exports in all PDF/X presets I get rich black all the time. I'm totally confused.

OK. Here's my case. Any volountiers? Two colours PDF advert placed in AP document. I've also tried converting and assigning Euroscale Coated v2 profile to this advert in Adobe Illustrator with no success. 2colours.pdf black.afpub

I meant black from placed PDF files. Publisher's black remains 100% black. But black on all placed PDF's (adverts) becomes separated to CMYK after exporting for press PDF/X.

I work on two colour project - black & spot colour. I have some pdf adverts placed in the document which have only 100% black + this spot colour. After exporting AP document to PDF (press ready) black becomes four colour black instead of 100% black. All pdf's files are in Euroscale Coated v2 - same as Publisher document. What should I do to avoid this separation error?

It would be nice to have possibility to choose artboard while placing Affinity Designer file. I can only change an artboard after placing.

Keeps crashing or freezing while changing text colour. Publishcrash.mp4

Yep, I need Optical kerning.

It would be nice to be able to see insets if they're applied to text frame.

Hi I'm totally confused with colours in Affinity Designer. The colour values not only change after export to PDF but also differs in AD document. In my CMYK document (Euroscale Coated v2) I have a blue colour 61, 49, 0, 60. But when I try to change it, it differs from original. The CMYK values are the same but RGB and HSL are different. After exporting (print PDF) blue becomes 96, 84, 35, 31. The blue colour is just an example. Other colours behave the same way. I'm lost.

Yes, this is annoying. Please add ctr+space for zooming.

Thank you

Hi It would be great to have the possibility to change width and hardness of a brush by holding ALT+RMB and dragging (horizontally for width, vertically for hardness). In PS I only use this method.

Hello I've saved my render as a TIF file with alpha channel. When I open it in AP everything which is not in alpha channel is missing.
