[Split Text Box]

Yes Walt,

But that means the text is also gone.

I think the OP wants to split the text in a single frame into to two frames (like a column)but to be placed where you want and have it linked.
So no  need to create a new text frame and have the text flow into it.

And @Graham Hermon wants the link broken but have the text remain inside the second text frame
 

My ideal would be for the text to remain in the second frame. This provides better workflow when working with a document.

Breaking the link of text frames would be a good addition to the programme. It's included in Adobe InDesign...

[Span Columns]

YES. Spanning columns is a great feature in Adobe InDesign and should be incorporated in Affinity Publisher. PLEASE do include this in the next Beta or final version.

Your PDF from APub is using the RGB color space. I don't know if that would produce such a variance or not and wouldn't know without source files.

Following your comment that I had created a PDF from APub using RGB colour space, you were indeed correct. The image looks quite correct now in APub. Thanks for pointing this out.

I have only just tried Publisher. On setting up the colour preferences and the PDF outputting settings that best replicate what I have in Adobe InDesign, I not only found that a JPEG placed in Publisher was high in colour saturation and not the colour I had got it printed in InDesign.  I created a PDF from Affinity Publisher and InDesign and it is quite clear to see that there is a distinct difference. The PDF created in InDesign is much more preferable and realistic to the image I expected. Affinity Publisher does not match this quality.
