Presumably people bought the V1 app within the Mac store but this app wouldn't work on ipad?
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.

I have logged this issue to be improved in the future
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?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, Hareem, and thanks for the brushes!
For those wondering what they look like, I’ve created a quick sample sheet.

And for that font, you can easily see the benefit of having the ligature, since it avoids the collision:
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:

After selecting the line whose style you want to copy, press the ‘Synchronize defaults from selection’ button on the toolbar.

Why do you consider my post off-topic please? To me it seems to be a matter arising from my original post, albeit by a somewhat something route.
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’.

Here is a link that has some information about the various mutations in Welsh.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zsv8wmn/revision/1
In learning some Welsh I find it interesting that I have learned something about soft mutation in relation to the localizing of this poem from the symbols into Welsh.
Indeed it is somewhat serendipitous that that the localization of that poem shows that both b and m mutate to f.
Please note how brown mutates to frown and melyn mutates to felyn.

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.)

i think the non offer normal price is a bit much for an original owner upgrade price
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.

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.

(?=(:|"|%)) is a ‘positive look ahead’. It looks at what follows the space and checks if it is one of the characters (:), (;), (%).
For the sake of clarity, I believe you meant to type:
Quote(?=(:|»|%)) is a ‘positive look ahead’. It looks at what follows the space and checks if it is one of the characters (:), (»), (%).

I'm basicly forced to buy v2 to get my designs back
You could buy v2 from the Affinity Store, retrieve your designs and then request a refund.

I never installed the font it just came with the barcode. But I changed the barcode font to what was already in the Font Manager and it cleared the error. Thanks for the reply
If you didn’t install the font, it isn’t hugely surprising that the app reported it as missing when trying to use it!

Hi @RML and welcome to the forum. There are a lot of tools available on the net to identify fonts. Here's one you could try.

If you don’t mind working your way through a series of questions, the ‘Fonts by Appearance’ route offered by Identifont may prove helpful. -

How did you install the font? Does it work correctly with other software?
