[Zoom 100% (CTRL+1) does not fit]

In InDesign and other apps I get the actual size by pressing STRG+1. And for me this is a function I ofte use to check the design.

[Zoom 100% (CTRL+1) does not fit]

Oh, I see. Have a look on the screen-shot:

The ruler in my hand does not fit the ruler in the app, but it should.

[Zoom 100% (CTRL+1) does not fit]

Oh, sure: I forgot some important informations.

I use Windows 11 on a laptop with an external monitor.
The resolution of the document in dpi does not change the fact that the document is displayed too large on the screen. The phenomenon occurs with all documents in Affinity and also with CTRL+8. CTRL+1 and +8 give the same result: zoom to 100% and the document is displayed too large.
In the Windows settings, the screen is scaled to 150%. I use a second laptop where the phenomenon does not occur, although the same monitor (!) is also controlled with 150 % scaling.

[Zoom 100% (CTRL+1) does not fit]

In the zoom level 100% (CTRL+1), the display on the screen should be just as large as when printed out. Unfortunately, this is not the case with me. I have to set the zoom to 52% so that 21 cm on the screen is actually 21 cm.
I find this function important to control the design.

Is there an adjustment for this?

In der Zoomstufe 100% (STRG+1) sollte die Darstellung auf dem Bildschirm genauso groß sein, wie ausgedruckt. Das ist bei mir leider nicht. Ich muss den Zoom auf 52 % setzen, damit 21 cm auf dem Bildschirm auch tatsächlich 21 cm sind.
Ich finde diese Funktion wichtig, um das Design zu kontrollieren.

Gibt es da eine Einstellung?

[Where are export options saved?]

Well, and in the new Version 2?

Unfortunately Version 2 didn't import these settings.

To quickly go to this location please copy the following into the Windows Run dialogue window and click OK and the location will then be shown

%AppData%\Affinity\Publisher\1.0\Printing

@joe_l had the better idea. Thanks a lot to both of you!

[Where are export options saved?]

I have defined an export setting for various printers. Surely this data is stored somewhere where I can transfer it to another computer. Apparently such a function, similar to Adobes joboptions, does not yet exist for Affinity. Maybe that would be a nice workaround ...

Does anyone know where this data is stored?

[How to reduce to four colors?]

Oh, Yes; that's too easy 🙂

Thank you!

[How to reduce to four colors?]

I have two portraits that I want to process this way:
They should both be reduced to four colours. That works well with the tone separation. However, I want the same four colours in both pictures. How can I achieve this?

[Export Persona in Publisher]

What about opening the afpub-file in Designer or Photo and use the Export Persona of them?

[Feature Request: Text styles in folders]

This has been suggested before. As far as I remember one of the developers said that this might be done in the future but nothing more than that.

Oh, I see. Well, I hope, that they come around with the folders sooner :-)
Thank you!

[Feature Request: Text styles in folders]

In larger documents I use many different text styles. In Publisher they are unfortunately not sortable. It would be nice if they could be sorted into folders.

[Feature Request: More variables!]

From other programs, I like working with variables. The existing variables in Publisher are nice, but insufficient. I would like more variables.

[Feature Request: Support for Microsoft Publisher (.pub) files]

Me too!

[IDML: Text variables are not converted]

I would also like to see the variables introduced soon. At the moment, they're not complete.

[Open the Formats!]

I don't think so.

In my opinion it would rise the reputation of Serif and its products.

[Open the Formats!]

The release of Affinity Publisher is a big event. Let's make it an even bigger shock to the industry! So I suggest to Serif to open the formats afphoto, afdesign and afpub. I am annoyed almost every day that there are no open exchange formats. If Serif opens them, formats would be available that offer long-term storage and interoperability. And Serif gets an incredible publicity effect and popularity.

I would be happy to add hyperlinks (URL) in Affinity Designer, too!
