I am in windows 10 affinity publisher, latest release

Where can you do that at? I can’t find it. Thx

I love Affinity but I still use PP X9 for small projects bc it has a lot of features I am comfortable with plus a lot of my old projects were done in there. I am having trouble with cutout studio which which keeps creeping toward the top of the screen every time I use it. It has now disappeared off the screen. I remember there was a fix to it. I am sure there are several PP former users who might know this. Thank You in advance if you can help me!

So i have the same slow issue with A Publisher. When I first load, it is normal, but gets slow and slower as I type. I have seen several threads on this problem. I have not had the issue if I use Serif Page Plus or Adobe InDesign (which I detest). Only A.P. I have a dell win10 Laptop. with 8GB memory 64-bit system 2.20 GHZ, AMD a8 7410, Radeon R5 graphics laptop with 17.3 inch touchscreen

I have been trying to figure out how to have the Artistic Text tool NOT defeault to the last style and color used. How can I fix this and have it go to a base text style and color? ALSO Is there a way to have my own palettes (example - my blue, red, green, etc.) show up for colors in publications in the Swatch area? Thank You

so reset the program and lose all my formatting? hmm.. This sounds like a bug! The columns are fine when I edit the numbers but when I insert a new row say (example) five rows down, everything defaults to left even though the text in a column may have been centered.

I just found that when I edit the tables it changes back to default.

So I am having problems with Tables in Affinity publisher. They will not keep formatting. 1.) The text defaults to default Affinity text...Ie-- Arial. Even when I change it to something else. The text I change it to stays until I close the program and then when I reopen my work the Table has the original arial font. 2.) Also the texts in each individual column change back as well. If I have a column centered then it changes to a left default when I reopen it. I have never seen tables behave this way before. It has to be a bug

Hello I am Jeff Place and I have been a longtime user of Serif products. Fell in love with PagePlus back in the early stages of development. Was on early beta testing team. I have been doing payout since 1991 and publishing a newspaper (now pdf digital). Also have done a ton of freelance work.

I would like to have my publication with a consistent color swatch. I don't want 50 different colors or 10 shades of blue, etc. How can I make a swatch that has the same colors I like to use for each new publication I start? Also - is there a way not to have variants of a color (40% blue) continue to show up on the publication swatch? In InDesign, it does NOT show the varient of the color on the swatch

I substituted the Segui UI font for Trebuchet and the print looks as intended. However, I prefer the Trebuchet font. Tried turning lit. off made no change. Onscreen everything looks fine but the print is where I'm having the problem. If I export as pdf and print in another program, it prints as intended. So the problem has to be an affinity print problem. I am using win10, latest version and the trebuchet font is the latest. Gill sans also has this issue.

Thank You. somoeone told me the reason I'm having problems with the trebuchet font is that it is old. I don't know how to update it or where to get the newest font. Thanks.

Thank you. I still have a problem with the artistic text tool. It always defaults to underlined and Times New Roman. Cant figure out how to change that default or "No Style."

When i use the artistic text tool, it has a default I don't like. How can I change it? and I can't seem to figure out how to make permanent changes to styles like Body text, etc.

I have been working every angle and so far so good. I am finding the alternating fill columns feature working with a sample that was provided. Is there a shortcut in the drop down boxes that give you a choice of alternating fills?

Thank you I will do that. I just did a reinstall of win10 two months ago so not sure why they show up old. Also why would there be an issue with affinity publisher if NO OTHER PROGRAM has that same problem? Word, Excel, InDesign, PagePlus, etc?(Indesigt CC is the latest as are the MS programs. They all print correctly and if I export to pdf, the affinty file prints as intended. THANK YOU for your response. It is frustrating because when I used to do beta testing for PP, I was often told it was my problem. But it wound up a PP problem whenever I had an issue. My feeling is there is an affinity problem because it is the only program that does this behavior. Just like the PDF import issue that I have with pdf files that use embedded fonts test.afpub

OK I will try again. I will restart the program. Thanks

I imported a pdf and tried using the layer effects but it didn't work. 2019 Ad PDF from Serif.pdf

I love the steps that Affinty Publisher is making in Beta. Although it is a tough learning curve, I enjoy it. I have some questions that I can't figure out....looking for help.... 1.) Is there a way to change defaults for text or colors? It is a cool feature to use the last text style used, but not always practical. 2.) How can I resize a pic that is on the page and keep the right proportions? 3.) How can I get layer effects t work on imported PDF's? 4.) Can I make a custom color pallette with only the swatches I want to use?

Thank you Walt that is helpful. I just thought it was cool that when I want to change a font, the ID font drop box shows the preview in the samples rather than the name of the font. Thanks again I liked the ID fe Test Issue.pdf

Thank you. I am not sure. As I type the text it appears on the screen in slow motion. Usually the text appears on the screen as I type it. On my laptop, it has a delay. It sort of jumps on the screen. It has been this way for several versions of AP. If I type in word, pageplus, indesign or even here, it does not show that problem. I have win10 on a dell laptop.

Just a few things I've run across. The PDF import does not recognize embedded fonts yet. I worked around by importing the pdf in PagePlus then exporting as PDF out of there. The trebuchet and gills sans font still has issues. When I am typing a story, the letters appear on the screen in slow motion. JUST AN IDEA - It would be great if the program could preview the front like adobe indesign cc does. In the font drop down box it gives you a sample of the sentence youre writing.

Here is samples Test 2.afpub test.pdf trebucbd.ttf trebuc.ttf trebucit.ttf

Ok the fonts are Trebuchet, Gill Sans MT, Basic Sans. They get bold and spaced closely together when printed.If I export to pdf and print they look fine. test.pdf untitled.afpub

Yes windows 10... should NOT have to export to pdf and print. An extra step not needed in workflow. I often print copies or do work for clients that I print out without using a pdf. I do know there is a pdf issue tho with fonts. I previously stated that I get a pdf from the Air Force Reserve and the fonts get jumbled when viewed in the program and the same when printed.. I have to import the pdf in adobe indesign and then export out in a new file name to wok correctly. I also have two other pdf problems on pdfs I get from clients. Hopefully this will be noted and fixed. I will list arial type fonts in next post. I am enclosing two pdf I have problems with Air Force Ad 2018.pdf
