IDML Import Spreads


Recommended Posts

When importing an IDML which use facing pages or more than 2 page on a spread, Affinity Publisher is not creating individual pages and also is not applying the Master correctly. The first spread, which is a single page, will have the Left Master applied to the pasteboard. The second spread in the test file has 3 pages. Not only is the spread not divided into 3 page areas, objects from the Right Master are not applied applied to the 3 page on the spread.

I figure the problem is that Publisher cannot deal with more than two pages in a spread. So an .idml file with three page spreads should just not open and give a warning about too many pages in a spread.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

This is something we are aware of, still a bit of discussion how to handle it. We very much don't support 3 page spreads and some other document models that it's possible to create in InDesign
