Hi again. I found my problem. I just found the check box for the PSD-Export-Presets. When I choose the second menu point (Bearbeitungsmöglichkeiten erhalten), what basically means (remain editability), the path-layer looks ok: But the reimport into Photoshop flattens my text-layers, which brings me to my previous question: Which Layer-Format can I use for the communication with Photoshop users? Thanks!

Hello! Our Office (Germany) just started with Affinity, changing from Photoshop CS3. Like many others we didn´t like the new marketing methods of Adobe and hope to have found an alternative professional App with Affinity. So thanks a lot for your work! Since we have a huge stock of layered PSD and TIFF files, we are also dealing with the incompatibility of these with Affinity. A lot of our files have to be reused, reopened and reformated time after time. Also we are working with external graphic offices and print companies that will surely not change to Affinity. (I guess that will be the same issue and problem with many companies world wide) Lately I tried to keep an PSD-Export (with Layers) as a Backup besides the .afphoto-format. I thought if I export it with Affinity to PSD and reopen it later again also in Affinity, it should be able to read its own export file. But the Layers with a path are corrupt after reopening. Procedure: - Opening old path-layers from Photoshop CS3 to Affinity-Photo (no visible corruption) - Exporting unchanged path-layers to PSD format and AFPHOTO. - Reopening Affinity-PSD-Export with Affinity. (corrupted path-layers) - Reopening Affinity-AFPHOTO-File with Affinity. (no visible corruption) Is this also an issue that cannot be solved. Or are you working on the enhancement of the compatibility in general? Which (Layer)-Format can I use to pass it on to other professional editors or printers who use Photoshop? Thanks for the help!
