I have been training myself to use Publisher / Designer / Photo by transcribing across an A5 booklet I was working on in Open Office Writer. This involved copying and pasting paragraphs of text and mixed raster / vector illustrations from Open Office Writer to Publisher. All went well until I tried to amend a vector illustration by switching to the Designer persona within Publisher. Publisher crashed and attempts to re-open the file have resulted in it repeatedly flashing up the page with the vector illustration for a split second before closing down. The same thing happens if I attempt to open the file from Designer or Photo, though the illustration remains visible for slightly longer before closing down. The vector graphic was originally produced in Macromedia Freehand but appeared without a hitch in Publisher until I resized and amended it in a small way. Windows 10 on a Soundblaster laptop which handles everything I throw at it in the way of tiff images and cad drawings etc. (I routinely process raster files up to 80mb). This is purely a training exercise - no panic deadlines involved! Nevertheless I wouldn't want to invest too much time on serious productive work if there was a risk of losing it in this manner. This raises a question as to whether an auto back-up option for the Affinity programs is planned that would enable earlier versions of a file to be recovered?
