I am new to Affinity and Illustrator, so apologies if I am not explaining this correctly or if I did something wrong, but I wanted to point out something that I noticed.
When designing an invitation recently with a lot of delicate script fonts, I added a .15pt stroke to be sure they would hold up and be thick enough to print.
I exported the file from Affinity as a PDF (did not convert the text to outlines, as it was important that the text stay editable). When I imported the PDF into Illustrator to test that everything would transfer over correctly if opened in a different program, the stroke width around the text looked much thicker than the width I had originally set in Affinity. Is this some error on my end, or perhaps a bug in the export?
A few other notes, and apologies if I'm not posting this in the right place - but I noticed three things in the new beta version:
The font chooser (I don't know the technical name but it's the box you click on and can scroll down to select a font) automatically resets to the top every time you click on it - rather than starting at the name of the font that is currently selected. I find this frustrating as I often like to scroll through fonts and try different ones out, and don't like to have to start back at the top of the list every time I click out of the chooser to get a better view.
Also, I noticed that even though I have "show text in points" clicked, if I switch the document units to anything besides points, the text size shows up in whatever the document unit is set to (inches, mm, etc.) This isn't the case with the lines, just the text.
Finally, I noticed that you can zoom out (using the command, - shortcut) while actively editing text, but you cannot zoom in (using command, +).
