  1. With a smile, a frown, a confused glance and a weak analytical attempt to understand your comment........Canvas and artboard are interchangeable concepts in my outdated brain dictionary, snce I am not from a Design background at all, just photography and publisher. May I ask what you meant? Unless, (he says hesitantly) unless by clipped you meant "Not Shown" then I assume the artboard means the area off the page?
  2. As per example image here, I would like to reduce the visibility of the artboard area, on this particular ]project it would make it easier to visualize the page without seeing what would not appear on the page. I did search the help but found no information on the artboard, so is it possible to do please?
  3. Can not answer this, but I understand if Affinity do not wish to support it. It is a very very complex algorithm requiring complex encoding. It is not backwards compatible, not many sites use it regarding social media, it is not popular either with camera manufacturers or photographers. While it has a much better compression and final output than Jpeg, it never really took on as a viable alternative, mainly for the lack of compatibility and abundance of other formats anyway. Sorry that I can not answer your question, but I suppose, if you did not know this already, I hope that a little information might be helpful. I suppose you will have to download a conversion tool to convert to another format.
  4. Just a litte tip here that will help you, apart from reading what Psenda posted I would take a small portion of your image, maybe a third of it (this is to save ink), the part perhaps with the most colour, and print it out. Do not look at your screen, go to a window with natural light, does the photo look good to you? now compare that with the screen. This is a good place to start before we go any further.
  5. Hallo Squire, it is not you. The frame is at 96 ppi, too low for a print and when it appears in your page it is placed at 193 ppi, due to the fact that it is doubling in size to fit the page which makes it even worse so don't worry this is not you. Go to Resource manager under DOCUMENT and you will see this. Now that you see what Bruce has done is it possible for you to repeat this following his example? You should not have the resolution problem then.
  6. Ik vind het grappig als een engelsman maar ik moet wat zeggen als je het niet erg vindt.....😀, ik heb geen idee wie "Jordan Peterson" is maar dit is slecht engels. Het zou moet geschreven worden als: That WHICH you do not know is more important than THAT WHICH you already know....😊. Ja Nu, is het MOET of MOETEN hier boven, you can now correct my dutch if yo want.
  7. For some reason I am saying this with the notion that there is a reason why you can not, or have not done this.....and that is to copy all the files as they are to a USB stick? If the usb stick is formatted to fat32 or exfat if you have huge massive files above 4GB to stop them from fragmenting mac can write to it. If the usb is formatted to NTFS, mac can not write to this and if it is in mac native then windows can not read this. Ignore as required,
  8. Hi Jim, you need to be very specific as to what is happening. It might help if you tell us the following: 1. Does it freeze on start up? or when you go to click a tab after start up, or when you load a single photo, or if you are loading in many photos, at what point does it become inoperable? 2. Is the laptop or computer a low end market one? Do you have a good processor speed, are you running any other apps in the background at the tme ofloading affinity? Just these to start with might help. I am not a computer expert but have certainly dealt with many freezes inmy time on win 10. Load up Task manager and see if affinity photo is listed in red as "not responding". Or if it is even listed at all.
  9. I do not know which age to tick since my physical age is older than my brain age which is older than my heart age -😊
  10. I know of no way to do this, but, if it is a brochure I am assuming that it is not the number of images that are important but the number of pages . If you therefore make sure all the text is placed on the TOP of all image layers and then In Publisher still, select the curves adjust and place that underneath the text layer so that it is above all the image layers, then this curves layer will affect all the images on that one page. I do not know if this is any solution for you. If you only have a brochure I am assuming then that this would not be too time consuming? I wonder whether or not the fact that you have your brochure in a cmyk profile is part of the problem, since I assume your images are RGB, (photos), there may well be two conversions happening here when you received the proof back. My experience has always been that regardless of the end print job, the pdf should have an embedded RGB profile which is then converted to cmyk by the printers themselves? Did your printer specifically ask for you to convert your brochure to a (not assign) a cmyk profile? Just curious.
  11. Hi, yes, I am assuming that she wants it for Adobe, In Design maybe, since this was my original comment so long ago, to which she replied with the question.. Well I am posting the script that I have used, it worked also on whole paragraphs. ReverseText.jsx
  12. Sorry for extended delay in relying, I will dig it out, I need to get back to my apple for that, it is on CS3, which photoshop version do you have?
  13. My personal method for tweaking (Not harsh adjustments), is to apply a Curves layer to the image, adjust the Midtones upwards gently and set to luminosity mode. Brightness adjustments are quite cruel and can change colours, the curves set to luminosity blend mode will not affect colours at all, is gentle and will achieve a more pleasing effect.
  14. I have been here before but have completely forgotten the answers. I spent 20 mins searching in preferences, user interface and help and can not find the answer to this simple simple Oh so simple question.........How on earth do I set the default measurements in document setup and to be the default anywhere else for that matter to be in centimetres instead of millimetres? Preferences would be the most logical place, but Nope. Edited, no need for second question. Many appreciations
  15. Mike and Bruce, Seriously....Did I miss that? My immediate thoughts when I read your posts were, "Whaaaat, why did I not bother looking at the Layers pallette, how stupid," thankyou all of you, I really do appreciate the time you took to have a look. I am sorry that I wasted your time on something I should have done.
  16. I have removed personal details and have removed all margins. Also moved bottom left image so that you can see that nasty red box better. It is 9 Mb so not too big. TextileUpload.afpub
  17. Hi Walt, I turned off snapping, and also absolutely nothing is selected, no candidates or anything. The Red box is still there. It is the inner one, I have removed all margins, the out red line is the snipping tool I used.
  18. Hi Bruce, I have never had these on, ever. Here is a screen shot, running through the drop down list there is nothing selected. Plus the bounding boxes are Red not purple.
  19. Hallo Walt, hope things are fine with you. I looked at the snapping manager dialogue, and there are no options for turning off or on any "Snapping canddates" It just simply says "Candidates" with 4 options that I don't know what they mean anyway. When I copied the graphics into another document and then minimized the graphics, those red bounding boxes did not move, so now they are printing over my minimized graphics. I do not know if there is a clue here, that they were copied over with the graphics.
  20. Hallo, Am confused, came back to an old file and printed it out. I have no idea what on earth this red outline is that surrounds the graphics (have moved the graphic out of the way so you can see). Searched everywhere including the Help, searched throughout the document and print settings and have no clue what on earth it is doing there. Thankyou Chris.
  21. Ah that is why I said the UPPER middle ages, however I should have been more precise because my writing is around 1550 and strictly speaking this is beyond the High Middle ages, I simply see the end of Middle ages as being around the 1500 but that is my personal take rather than an historically accurate description. Phew! 1000 - 1400 is high middle but in my circle anything before 1600 is medieval. So has my T’is survived the interrogation? EDIT: Well the consensus of opinion is that I am wrong. It should be ’tis, um.....however its earliest recorded use was indeed in the middle of 1400 and shakespeare used it in Hamlet and it was written as PualEC suggested. Tail between my legs, ’tis a mournful sentiment I do now taste. Still this has not resolved the fact that Affinity can not find glyphs and one can not type them into the search and find dialogue.
  22. You are absolutely right, in grammatical rules yes However IT IS - no letter is being replaced, nothing to replace the letter "I" and since the Old English "This is" was the original meaning, the apostrophe is actually replacing the letter "H", and has been handed down now to mean "It Is" as well. Hope this clarifies it nicely for you.
