UPDATE: .psd portion resolved. I thought it was not working because of the following reason: The designer whom created the letterhead did so with adobe illustrator. I have .psd and .ai version of it. Would prefer to use .ai since it’s vector based, unfortunately, there’s an issue there as well. The issue with Affinity Photo which shocked me, is that, when I opened the .psd file, it opened without its layers. The creator of this file left layer accessibility (never flattening) for future updates. So, when I opened this same .psd file with Procreate.... all the layers were there. Cool! But, there are no text tools to fix the text. Always something. Now, when I open the same file with Affinity Photo (no layers) appear. This Sucks elephant balls. Why? Because my time is limited and I chose to learn Affinity Photo with that limited time, going off the YouTube videos, leading me to believe - it can do stuff like this. Unfortunately, now I have to waste more time in the forums scouring answers, since responses are not swift, once I leave here... I have to scour the net for answers. So guys, why are the layers in the .psd file are not appearing in your app? (Picture below) also, node tools? Do we have that? That can help me delete the graphic icons by the text such as address, phone... etc, as well as raise up/rearrange the other graphical nodes (in the Picture below) Lastly, why can I not open a .ai file from my google drive? It’s grayed out. (Picture below) ORIGINAL POST: Hello, wonderful to see this forum buzzing with even more life since I’ve last been here, and it was already lively to begin with. Love the quick edit button on the forums and the all these new features... look at you serif? Making moves. Excellent, not only are the new features robust, but very user friendly. You guys rock! My issue, I have a .psd letter head where I need to edit its text. I tried following these instruction by @MEB “Hi adrianokalil, Welcome to Affinity Forums Go to Affinity Designer Preferences, General section and check Import PSD text as text rather than bitmap.” @MEB posted this in the following thread: I’ve uploaded my file, as you can see on the upper right hand side, I want to remove where it says “phone number” and raise up the following text underneath it. Would appreciate some help here. Thank you.
