It has been over two months since I reported this. Are you fixing this?

I am unable to insert ✉️ into a text, it gets replaced with a very basic alternative, which is not matching other emojis I insert. This used to work in older versions of Publisher.

This bug I reported in v1 is still present in v2

Since I do not know how to create such a profile, I did another workaround: Export 2 PDFs, an X-3 for the CMYK part and an PDF 1.7 for the RGB parts. Layer merged together in Acrobat, which could become a tedious task. So i hope this will get fixed soon, since I don't want to be the person responsible for color conversion if no cymk value is provided. Besides that, I would prefer an output intent independent PDF.

Hey Dan C, could you explain how to set an Output Intent Profile in the Affinity Products? Thanks

If Choosing X3 in the PDF-Export Settings, RGB colors will always be converted to CMYK, but instead they should have an RGB profile attached. Otherwise, X3 makes no sense since it is not different from X1a, where only CMYK Colors are allowed. Document color mode is sRGB This bug also affects Affinity Designer

I just noticed that the opacity value in the upper right corner of the swatches palette reflect the current value applied to the object, but you can't change the value of the actual swatch.

This works. It's counterintuitive, since the edit color dialog for palette color does not offer a transparency value. The reason for an exact numeric value is repeatability. I think Affinity should improve this.

When defining a background color via the text frame studio palette in affinity publisher, I can't set a numeric background transparency value. There is only a slider with no values shown. Can I enter a numeric transparency value somehow?

While creating new Document presets with the 'create Arbord' option checked, it becomes unchecked after saving the settings as an preset.

It would be nice to have numeric values for color opacity in all color popup windows. not just the main colour panel. For me its very annoying while adding multiple fills in the appearance panel

Sorry, i disovered this annoyance for Affinity Designer and did not see that this is a Publisher thread It's the same thing on the Apperance Pannel. For me its very annoying to switch to the Colour Panel every time i add another fill.

When creating a new document with margins and change some settings in 'Document setup...' the 'include Margins' option becomes unchecked, so that we lose the margins, even when rechecking 'include Margins'. Only reentering the margins will work.

I hope there will be Update discounts. My suggestion is to activate the affinity-store version if an installed MAS version is found.

Thank you Affnity, you did not mention it, but the lastest version features some PDF-export options wich allows to preserve images in their original color-space. You did this just in time so that i can verify it before my super old acrobat stopes woking with the next macOS. Keep up the good Work!

While this is not the same problem i described, this issue is also color related an should be fixed. Did you get an response on that?

With the default settings i experience some problems with black colors. First i would suggest to add a default document-swatch with a overprinting black, (and probably a non overprinting one). I need these colors in every print-design. In the default PDF export-settings (except the web-preset) the checkbox is marked to embed profiles. For CMYK documents i don't want this behaviour. In most situations i would prefer to export untagged CMYK colors (Device CMYK, instead of ICC-based CYMK) and tagged (ICC-based) RGB but with a output intent set to the documents cmyk profile. I did not manage to do that with Affinity Publisher (and Designer) With the current PDF export presets a black color is always tagged causing acrobat and printers to separate k into cmyk due to the color-profile.

I created an 4x Image 1800px width @ 288ppi (4x72) to export retina pictures for different densities (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x). While in the export persona "4x" is not in the dropdown-list of scales, but appears while hitting "+". However, after playing around with different export setting i discovered that 3x is the base size giving me 1800 px of width, 4x is scaled up and 1-3x is scaled down. 1350px with setting the export to 1x 2x 3x exports as expected to 450 pixels @1x. higher densities does not work as i would expect. Are there any solutions?
