Johnny Chin Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Hey guys, I don’t have APu years ago and done everything until recently in AD. It’s a book with a lot pictures and vectors plus some texts on every pages. I make the AD file so that each page is a group of content, no artboards at all. now I think to use APu to combine them and make it into a printable pdf, then convert it to fixed layout ePub3 on InDesign. but when I drag and drop into APu, the AD files are embedded instead the linked I chose and as the resource manager shown. Why is this happening? If I have to convert the AD files to pdf first, then where’s the integration of the trio Affinity files it should have? What’s the different of this than export and import these pdf into InDesign? and I can’t see there’s bleed after I drag and drop or even place the AD files into APu please help!

walt.farrell Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 If you had used Artboards it would be relatively simple on 1.8 (currently in beta). You could Open the Designer file and let Publisher turn the Artboards into Pages automatically. That would work now, actually. What the beta allows, in addition, is merging the pages from one Publisher file into another. I'm not sure if that's something you need, or not. You could also use the Artboard Tool in Designer to covers your groups into Artboards, which would help you in doing this. Personal opinion, for whatever it's worth: as you were wanting pages eventually it would have been better to use Artboards from the beginning.
