Grammar Checker?
Guyon replied to Archangel's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
I use UEC Ultimate Ebook Creator. It is very nice and in the new closed beta will do even more. UEC will find weak words and sentence structure. http://ultimateebookcreator.com/ -
They may not be “for life”, but the free updates tend to be for years. Go for it. I have had my Affinity Photo and Designer since January 6, 2017 with no update charge yet. I believe that Adobe InDesign is US$20.99/mo.

Direct Affinity Question

No official replay. You may be right fde101 LOL -
Publisher's Splash Screen

Too bad *sigh. But I meant this one. I shoot models all the time. She was amazing. -
Affinity Publisher Workbook
Guyon replied to bike42's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Sounds exciting, but maybe wait till some of the next features are out. I would not like a book that is outdated before it arrived. -
There was a post a while ago where Patrick Connor addressed that they will look at epub after the official release. So I am trying to patiently wait for that feature.

Publisher's Splash Screen
Guyon replied to Petar Petrenko's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
I like the screen. I REALLY liked the girl on Aphoto when they had that up. I am sure most would rather Affinity spend their valuable time fixing code and adding new features than trying to appease everyone on the aesthetics of a single splash page. -
So what is it like at the Affinity office getting ready for the Apub release? Relaxed and just waiting or just crazy coding and getting ready for the live event?

Get work to pay for the mac version. But $34.99 is a steal if you get it now at the 30% off for the beta testing. Even if you need to buy both it is only $35 each! Microsoft word is $129, or $64 a month to rent to put this in perspective.

I purchased Affinity publisher and of course, you can not download it yet. My old APub is out of date so I uninstalled it and went to get a new beta. But all the DL links now go to the sales page. Can I not get the beta anywhere?

Nice suggestions Leigh. This is not an Affinity issue it runs perfectly fine on both my new-er desktop any old MS Surface pro 3 with windows 10. My suggestions would be to re-download the program, maybe it got interrupted? Or perhaps you do not have your .NET runtime set up correctly. This was a good post to check for .NET runtime errors

Open office publisher (.pub) files
Guyon replied to coasterdude's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
In no way is opening an MS Publisher .pub file a deal breaker. In fact .pub is a propitiatory file format that I do not think any program can open except for MS products. But take a look at this article on .pub files. https://www.lifewire.com/open-pub-files-without-microsoft-publisher-1074669 -
It really doesn't matter when it actually goes live you have it now for free and get to pave the way to suggest how you want it to end up. I am VERY hopeful that we get Epub soon.

Video in Publisher as a interactive PDF
Guyon replied to DrZigZag's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Right now APub is focused more on finalizing the dead tree portion of the program. I am very excited to see the next step into digital. Hyper-links, Epub, as well as most of your suggestions. It is a process. I suggest you become a master of the current version and by then you will be up and running for version 2! I am thrilled that we got this much early than have to wait for the final. Happy Publishing. -
Need Expert Publisher Help
Guyon replied to Guyon's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Thanks, William, I am seeing that they are 10–1/8 inches by 6–5/8 inches, or 25.7 centimeters by 16.8 centimeters. So I am guessing that it may be better to make this in Affinity Designer than Affinity Publisher? -
Publisher in German
Guyon replied to German_Printer's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Are you sure APub has all the features and stable you need to make the switch? PagePlus is still a highly robust publisher. It may be wise to wait till the official release hits before you switch for business use. -
I am looking at making a comic (standard comic book size) as a test before I try out the real thing. But I am confused on how to do the page set up with trim and actual size. I have seen singe page sheets and double wide so that it has a fold. If you did the double-wide doesn't the center margin have to change size since the outside pages need to be bigger than the page at the centerfold? So I guess what I am asking can someone please make me a blank comic page (No panels) with the trim marks, and space for the header, page number etc? And can that also be used for the cover? Thanks for any help

All these questions are for digital page creation for a printer. 1 What is the standard size sheet to work with to make comic books? ** 2 Looking at this article if I want my page to be 11x17 do I actually make my page larger so that it can be cut down to 11x17? If so what size do I make my document? Or if this all for hand-drawn do I just make my digital 11x17 with no bleed? https://www.printninja.com/printing-resource-center/file-setup/offset-printing-guidelines/file-setup-for-full-bleed-printing 3 Anyone know of a free download comic book template with the bleed and trim on it? No panels. Thanks **Aren't comic book pages printed double wide, and stapled down the middle? So why in most examples to I see them as a single frame/page?
