I ended up downloading and installing the apps from the Microsoft Store and have no problems running or activating them.

All good, thanks for that.

Thanks for that. Most programs have such files in clearly identifiable folders, but not the case here. However, I did have a couple of my own templates in Publisher and can't find them after transferring all relevant files over.

I have just upgraded my Windows PC and have had to reinstall all my Affintity software. I had quite a few items that I had added to Studio items such as styles, assets etc.. I want to load these into the new installs but can't find where they are stored on my old drive. I have tried Program and App Data but can't seem to find anything.

David, Try this link: hunspell/en_NZ.dic at master · elastic/hunspell · GitHub

Thanks for that.

All fixed, once I found out that I could slow the video down. Why does it only set the language to a text box and not as default? Thanks for the help.

Thanks again, Dan. Have downloaded the Australian dictionary and put it in a folder as per your instructions. The only problem is that it is a RAW file and can’t find a program to open it, so nothing shows up in the folder when I move the file to it.

Thanks for the reply, Dan. I would really appreciate it if an Australian dictionary can be installed. Thank you for your help.

Publisher will not spell check my text and get a message to the effect that it can't check Australian English. My Windows system language is Australian, and I have the spelling checker in Publisher set to UK English. Whenever any program I use has a spelling checker and doesn't have the option of Australian English, I always set it for UK English and have never had a problem in the past including Serif PagePlus which I used for many years. As far as spelling is concerned, I can't think of any words that we use the US spelling so there should be no problem using the UK dictionary.

Affinity Photo is a good product, but can't understand that about 2 years since the .cr3 format was first used on Canon cameras, Serif still don't support it on the Windows platform. Canon are some of the most popular cameras on the market and Serif are pushing themselves as a real rival to Photoshop and yet you have the extra step of converting to .dng before editing in Photo. I know this is not a big deal and Serif don't have the resources of Adobe, but other software such as On1 now support it.

Hi Dieter, AutoFX Software ( http://www.autofx.com/photo-effects-software/photo-graphic-edges-gen2.html ) do a plugin, Photographic Edges, that works in AP. You can buy the bundle with the 3 modules, edges, frames and borders or each is available separately. It isn 't cheap but until 31st of this month there is 50% off and there is a free demo. Carl

Hi emmrecs01, In actual fact there are 5 Topaz plugins not working, ReMask should be in that list too. The ones not working get the attached error message which according to another post on this Forum is 'not fixable' at this stage. When I linked my Photoshop plugins folder to AP, only 3 Topaz programs came up and the only way I could get them all to show was to make a link to both the 32 and 64 bit Topaz folders also. Like you say, it may have something to do with 32/64 bit versions as when you load Topaz programs, it installs both versions despite the fact mine is a 64 bit system. I have also attached a shot of the Plugins folder in Affinity (not the best as the folders won't stay open to take a normal screenshot) which clearly shows all the Topaz plugins despite half of them not working.

In Plugins under the Filter menu, it lists several PS plugins that don't work in Affinity and was wondering if there is anyway to delete them from the list? I am using the Windows version. Just for interest, this is a list of PS plugins that I have installed on my computer and their status in Affinity Photo: Working Anthropics - LandscapePro, PortraitPro AutoFX - Mystical, PGE Nik Collection - All The Plugin Site - ColorWasher, FocalBlade, LightMachine Topaz - DeNoise 6, Glow 2, InFocus, Impression 2, ReMask 5, ReStyle Not working ON1 Photo RAW 2017 Tiffen - Dfx v2 Topaz - Adjust 5, Clarity, Lens Effects, Star Effects
