The file from @LarsNvG crashes for me too, no matter HWA on or off. Attached is the crash report. 0e501238-26a7-428d-9bde-39a29ab67bca.dmp PS: As a sidenote, GIMP 2.10 opens the file without a problem.

If I recall it correctly the red lines show the printers margin, which seems to be bigger on the right side. Try to change the Fit Type to one of the other two options or print on a larger paper.

Is it possible, that you have one of the Float options enabled under menu Window? If yes, use Dock All. It seems to me very unusual that the Affinities close the previous documents.

Willkommen auf den Affinity-Foren @Tanja Niederfeld! Welches Programm verwendest du denn mit welchem Betriebssystem? Wäre es Affinity Publisher, würde ich vermuten, dass du entweder den Vorschaumodus (Scheibenwischer-Icon oben) aktiviert hast oder du hast die Objekte auf der Master-Seite platziert. Ein Screenshot der Seite wäre hilfreich.

Welcome to Affinity forums @LucyMacrae! If you mean 2 pages lying side by side with mirrored inner and outer margins, then Facing Pages is the same thing. Please note, that up to now only 2-pages-spreads are possible.

Welcome to the Affinity forums @Ogi Karam! Did you export as All Spreads or All Pages from the Area pulldown in the export dialogue? You have to export as All Pages.

A quick test shows me, that the layers names are preserved. As the file comes from a customer you are not allowed to share it?

Yes, it looks like if the selection fails, but it is active. I think this is not a bug, but an imperfection.

Maybe this is reported before, but I cannot find it. It is not a bug, but a flaw. Make a small selection with one of the selection tools and type in a high feather value like 1024px. The marching ants vanish instantly, but that a selection is active you can see by the result while painting inside the "selection". Deselecting the invisible selection reverts everything back to normal.

This symbol simply shows the end of a text section. If those signs disturb you, you can turn them off in menu Text >> Show Special Characters.

Hitting the Revert Defaults button in the top toolbar might help?

I would not count on that, as PDF is the far better option in comparison to EPS.

Welcome to the Affinity forums @caw8! Having no Document Setup indicates, that you use Affinity Photo that has no bleed option, whereas Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher have. If there is bleed in a document Affinity Photo shows it.

I never got my hands on the Redmi photo app, but I guess the photo app has some expert settings - like my Oppo Reno 10x Zoom - where you can set some manual options or install another photo app which gives you more control on all settings, HedgeCam 2 for instance (just an example).

There must be more than this. Re-saving (attached) in ID as IDML opens the file with the warning of missing images. It could be interesting for the developers comparing both IDML? repaired.idml

Just remove the white line with the Erase Brush tool. ute2.afphoto

Even Illustrator CS6 (attached image) fails to show the bitmap fill properly, whereas Inkscape opens the fill okay with the Poppler/Cairo option.

All? or most? of the text makes use of Flow Options (Paragraph panel). As most of the paragraphs here are one- or two-liner Prevent orphaned first lines + Prevent widowed last lines + Keep with next 1 lines gives problems here. Perhaps you should select all text and remove the Flow Options and do the page / frame breaks manually?

Maybe @Latergator did not see the option in the Character panel? Otherwise you are of course right.

Unless the text has a background colour from the Character panel.

Layers or not won't help you here I think unless the file has a strong encryption. Just out of curiousity, could you upload such a sample PDF that fits your needs?

The naming of layers is confusing. There are Layers and there are layers and both appear in the Layers panel. Let's say you start a fresh document and add a rectangle which appears in the Layers panel and you want to export it to PDF with the option Include Layers (hidden in the More section). Doing so, you still get no layers in the PDF. Click the Add Layer button at the Layers panel and move the rectangle to that layer you'll get a layer in the exported PDF. I would expect the PDF a bit bigger with "real" layers. Regarding the 10 minutes ... depends on the complexity of the document, the power of your machine and the export preset I guess. Perhaps there have to be many effects calculated or images are downsized and compressed? For 700+ pages I think 7 MB is a good value.

Welcome to the Affinity forums @frankeee! It seems that you are using Affinity Designer. The panel Pages (Seiten) is a feature of Affinity Publisher only.

Several things that look fishy. a) First of all I recommend to make special characters visible (menu Text at the bottom). b) In image 1 the leading is 72pt not aligned to baseline grid (this is done somewhere else). Yes, one can do that, but 72pt is no proper value for leading here. c) In image 2 we see a Leading Override of 11pt plus a baseline shift of 1pt. Why a baseline shift here? d) In image 4 we see a baseline shift of 12pt. Things are getting worse here. Asking again: Why a baseline shift here? e) Finally we need your document for further inspection and guiding.

Welcome to the Affinity forums @KarenS! Is there a Leading Override value greater than 10pt in the Character panel?
