Oh, my god! It works! You saved our lives! Thanks a lot. @Fred, check this! It's not a bug, it's a feature! itworks.mov

1. I'm trying Publisher and loving it. To solve this problem, I use normally. At the end, after typing all I need, I run a SEARCH>REPLACE to remove the wrong characters. It's not the best, but since I'm trying and searching for bugs, I keep going... 2. Same here. 3. Paste is ok, indeed. Sometimes, when I need to finish the job fast, I do the same. When I'm testing for bugs, I do what I told in 1, above. 4. The last updates just change the wrong character, but the problem persists. Strange is that it doesn't happen in Designer or Photo (well, I'm using the commercial versions, not beta, hope they don't bring the same problem). Regards.

News! It's still happening, but now when I type ' as in á, é, í, ó, ú or ç, appear a new character before: a double "smaller than". See the image...

You're master! I didn't notice they were RGB. I'll double check all other files. I'm used to link files instead of embedding them, because (in this case) I have a lot of files using the same source (for instance, the kidneys). I got this file from the client, and didn't check the color mode. I'll try to fix this and rework the PDFs to see. Anyway, when I opened them in Illustrator, besides the message, the file was ok, ready for printing in CMYK... Thanks a lot. Best regards from Brazil and I'll keep looking for issues and bug to help you make the best Publisher ever! PS: I'd love to have data merge (someone teach me a way to bypass this, but sometimes I'd need more complex tool for some works)

Indeed, one error is missing. I attached the file below. Forget to send it before, sorry. dmr2019 adesivo 8x8cm.afpub

The problem persists...

Hi. I generate some PDFs using X1A format and default Print format in Export menu, just added crop marks. A guy from a press office told me he's having a issue report when opening the PDF file in other apps (he tried with CorelDraw -- poor guy --, and I've tried to open using Illustrator). Both are complaining that "An unknown shading type was encountered" and "An unknown imaging construct was encountered". Image ScreenShot1.png attached. I click OK to see if there was any problem with the objects in the file and couldn't find any. But decided to send them to you, to check if there's some bad code involved when generating the PDFs... By the way 1: the file adesivo.pdf is PDF X1A. The other, adesivo1.pdf is Print Default. By the way 2: Take care of your kidneys, guys. Check renal function at least once a year (start with creating, and keep good habits). Living with hemodialysis is not what someone would wish... dmr2019_adesivo.pdf dmr2019_adesivo1.pdf

Don't worry. And let's leave that for tomorrow. BTW Happy New Year. I'll work on the text file later and send it to you. Best regards from Brazil

Anyway, for simple projects it's fantastic! Thanks a lot.

I've tried my idea. Didn't work. In page 1 I created a new text box. SHIFT-clicked the upper box the flow icon and Publisher created the pages.But it added a "empty" page between each name tag. Probably because the text format I have in Mac. Then I SHIFT-clicked the second text box flow icon and Publisher added a lot of new pages. I'd expect it would follow the page count. And, again, and empty page between sessions... Probably I need to work on styles, perhaps asking Publisher to flow to next frame. Just don't know how to work the text file for this. Paragraphs, right?

This is fabulous! Great! Question: will this work if we use different styles? I mean, for instance, sometimes I need to personalize names and sessions the guy attended. With data merge it's a piece of cake. But this way I'd need to create 2 boxes, right? One for each text file... Did you try this? (i'll do it and let you know what happens)

Hi. Got it again. File Attached. I dragged both text frames together from left to right, and the content changed position. I used column break after BRIOCHE. swap connection.afpub

During that preview video you release before the beta become public, I saw you changing a placeholder in one page and the same happened to other pages (55sec at ). Can you explain me that and how I can use that? When I'm working on a huge document, sometimes I wish I could do that without going to master page. But I couldn't repeat what I saw in the vídeo.

Chris, I couldn't repeat the problem either. As we say here in Brazil, it's a problem of Exu-Tranca-Rede (like a little devil that blocks the network). :-D Or, as you say in Europe, a leprechaun related problem. I'll keep you posted if it happens again, ok? Best regards

1. :-D 2. Well, indeed. My intention was to complicate to find problems. When working, sometimes I have to break frames (for one reason or another) and using the connection allow me to organize the text and don't retype or copy paste it all. That's why this feature exists. 3. I used Column Break. Not Frame Break 4. In my file, text offset probably is due to font change or just a text size too high. 5. We have time, take your time... But thanks, anyway

Yes. In your example, and in other file I'm working, it's all right. But watch the movie attached. I'm sending you the file. connection problem.afpub Screen Recording 2018-11-24 at 17.37.50.mov

By connected I mean (forgive my english, I'm brazilian) when you connect 2 text boxes so the content flow from one to another. It's represented by a blue line with an arrow in the middle. In 2 images I add an ellipse to mark the arrow in the line and a black arrow to show the text flow direction.

"FRANGO E CATUPIRY" should be above the orange box. "130g and the legal text" should be below, in the white area. The images order are mixed, but anyway, the left arrange is right. When I drag holding OPTION, the connection changed from top box > bottom box to bottom box > top box.

:-) I have some empty boxes as crop lines. Sorry. Do you want the file, no problem for me. More: I fixed the problem, changing their position and maintaining the connection. When I drag the new arrangement holding OPTION, the problem didn't happen.

Hi there. I hold OPTION and drag two text frames connected. When I release, the connection is inverted. I mean, The "first" frame became the second and vice-versa. Look the images. By the way, l LOVELOVELOVE the Preview toggle! F10 rules! Thanks.

Oh, my god! Thanks a lot! Saved my life.

Hi. Sometimes I need to resize a text frame, and would love that the text inside grow or shrink proportionally to the frame. But it doesn't happen. Am I missing some command for that or Publisher don't allow this? If so, I'd like to ask you guys to consider it. Attached some images showing my problem.

Me too. I'd love to have Data Merge in Publisher.

Here it seems to be working fine. No problems like Marctwo related, about the document area appear corrupted.

Does it solve the saving issue?
