That’s correct. If you bought the app via the Mac App Store it wouldn’t work on an iPad, and if you bought the app via the iPad App Store it wouldn’t work on a Mac.

Thanks, @Callum, but I’m a little surprised that you didn’t find the issue already logged. It’s certainly been raised on these forums several times before.

VDL-LogoMaru-pop is an Adobe typeface, only available via a Creative Cloud subscription. How did you add the fonts?

Why is my font acting weird?
Alfred replied to sisdsigns's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Most fonts benefit from having an ‘fi’ and other standard ligatures. I’m a little surprised not to see an ‘ffi’ ligature in action here. -
If you have a note of your product key, you don’t even need to log in to your Affinity Store account. Simply choose the appropriate link from the following list: https://store.serif.com/update/macos/designer/1 https://store.serif.com/update/macos/photo/1 https://store.serif.com/update/macos/publisher/1 https://store.serif.com/update/windows/designer/1 https://store.serif.com/update/windows/photo/1 https://store.serif.com/update/windows/publisher/1

I have to say that “a somewhat something route” is a rather delightful phrase! All I meant is that although your original post has a PDF attachment that you presumably created by exporting from an Affinity app, the subsequent discussion about learning Welsh is unrelated to that app. So I gather from the link that you provided. I don’t claim to be a linguist, either, but the term “voiced” refers to the use of the vocal cords. If you articulate a ‘c’ or ‘g’ your tongue meets the roof of your mouth in the same way, and the only reason the end result is different is that you vibrate your vocal cords to produce the ‘g’ sound: the ‘c’ doesn’t involve vibration of the vocal cords, so it’s termed “voiceless”. Similarly, ‘b’ is the voiced counterpart to the voiceless ‘p’, and ‘d’ is the voiced counterpart to the voiceless ‘t’.

This is off topic for these forums, and as such it would probably be better discussed in the thread to which you referred previously: (What the BBC Bitesize page refers to as ‘soft mutation’ seems to be largely a voiced/voiceless distinction.)

Upgrade price just for photo?
Alfred replied to horsetags's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
The problem seems to be that Serif doesn’t want to charge different prices for Mac App Store and Microsoft Store customers, so they set the Affinity Store price to be the same. They know who their own direct customers are, of course, so they could easily offer them an exclusive upgrade discount, but they don’t have any way of offering the same discount to MAS and MS Store customers. -
Also crashes for me in AD version 2.0.4.5 on iPadOS 15.7.3.

Just as an FYI, your (Full HD?) video doesn’t display on my humble iPad Air 2.

Greek characters
Alfred replied to Piano Keith's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @Piano Keith. The following page includes many useful links: https://www.mrgreekgeek.com/2021/06/03/the-best-free-polytonic-greek-fonts/ -
Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @Losio. Which version of iPadOS are you using, and on which model of iPad? I can switch to the Polish keyboard here, but since I can ‘long-press’ for access to characters such as ę, ń, and ż there is no real need for me to switch from the English (UK) keyboard that I generally use.

Missing Font OCRB Barcode Error
Alfred replied to Row13's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
If you didn’t install the font, it isn’t hugely surprising that the app reported it as missing when trying to use it! -

If you don’t mind working your way through a series of questions, the ‘Fonts by Appearance’ route offered by Identifont may prove helpful. http://www.identifont.com/identify.html -

FontSpring Matcherator is another possibility, but my current favourite is What Font Is. -

How did you install the font? Does it work correctly with other software? -
affinity designer New artwork - Put the Knife Down Sandra
Alfred replied to Greggry P's topic in Share your work
You’re a glutton for punishment with that hair, aren’t you! By the way, I think the title needs a comma after “Down” (unless someone is being instructed to put the knife “down Sandra”).
