  1. Could be, I think. I just copied the whole folder with both sets.
  2. I just moved to a new computer, and I opened my Publisher with one of the fonts I used missing. It wasnt an important font so I tried to select a replacement on the screen that showed me the fonts. However, each time I tried to select a specific weight of a typeface, it would choose a different weight. The font I was replacing with was Montserrat.
  3. I noticed almost all the recently fixed bugs have 4 digits in their bug numbers. Is this bug the oldest one still not fixed? I've just printed my first review copies of my book, but there are still several pages that cannot be laid out correctly, leaving lots of blank space on pages, and forcing me to add pages to make up for the text getting pushed. I would think a bug that forces layout to be incorrect would have a high priority. I really hope this gets fixed soon.
  4. I know this is a bit obscure, but I would appreciate it if when searching text, that ligatures like œ and æ show results as if they were oe and ae (and visa versa). I suppose there could be options so if I really only want the results that have the actual ligature, then that could be possible, but I think in most cases when searching I'd want all the results. Maybe color the ligature differently in the search results if it wouldn't have been found in a straight search. I'm sure there are some other similar ligatures, especially if you start looking at other languages and alphabets. I can think of a few in Hebrew, but as Affinity doesn't yet support RTL languages, I guess that's a moot point.
  5. That's a good search trick, but in some cases I'd still want to see all the hits, but just know which ones are in the main text and which ones are in the notes.
  6. I'd like to suggest being able to differentiate search results that appear in notes from those that appear in the main text of a document in Publisher. Maybe just an asterisk next to the result or something similar. This would save time when you're looking for results in the text, and don't care about results that were added in footnotes. In the same way, I'd like to suggest that it be possible to show which output index items are in notes instead of in the main text. In this case I'd like to be able to specify how it is displayed. One example is an asterisk before the page number/range, another might be a superscript f to the right of the page number/range.
  7. Right now it seems that when Publisher groups page ranges in the Index, it cuts off the range at the end of a Section. I'd like to suggest allowing the cut off to be by Story or by Document as well. This allows much more flexibility. Sections can be used for various purposes, not all that map appropriately to index page groupings. For example, in the book I'm working on now I'm using Section titles to fill in the header text on the page. So while in a chapter, if the header changes (which it sometimes does on every page in a chapter), the index page grouping gets broken up and the pages get shown individually instead of being grouped. This looks very sloppy in the index.
  8. Either way, Publisher should allow groups to be based on the whole document instead of sections. They should limit the usage like that. The output, like above, shouldn't be possible.
  9. Yeah, I think both colors should be able to be set by the user. For the selection color I think frankly it should take it from the system setting, at least on the Mac where I know you can set it, although if Serif wants me to set it in Settings, I'm okay with that too. And Search results definitely need to be able to be a brighter color.
  10. Mike, I think you were the one who got me to use sections to determine the header text. So I blame you. 🙂
  11. In publisher, if I search for a text, the found text is highlighted in grey: If, however, I select the text myself, it's highlighted in light blue. On my Mac, the system highlight color is set to orange. So where is Publisher getting the grey and blue colors from, and how do I change them? Thanks.
  12. I have no idea how my instance occurred. I just found it there as I was reviewing my book.
  13. I use sections for page headers, and this book has different headers almost every page. Why would Publisher link indexing to sections? That doesn't seem to match the intention of page groups in an index. This should be considered a bug.
  14. This shouldn't be possible, right? First, there's a range of two pages. I thought ranges had to have a minimum of three pages? Second, the following 6 pages are not included in the range. If Group page ranges is on, then it should read '133-140, 391', right? How is it possible that some pages are groups and others are not?
  15. Can you provide an upload link? or do you not need it since @hangman worked out how to replicate it?
