reinhardmohr Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Hi, I'm on Publisher 1.7.3 and have the latest version of Affinity Photo, too. Whenever I place an image in Publisher (photograph or diagram) I experienced that text reflow /text wrap did not work (which expression is right in English: reflow or wrap?). Obviously sometimes it seems to work – but very often it did not work. Usually I had placed an image with .afphoto as file extension. Sometimes I could fix the problem when I exported the file in Affinity Photo as a tiff file and replaced the image in Publisher. More often text reflow worked properly in Publisher when I opened the image in Affinity Photo and reduced the layers (mostly Tonwertkorrektur in German, in English Tone Mapping????) to the background layer. This worked always. Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug in Photo or Publisher? Thanks for helping Reinhard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reinhardmohr Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Hi, some more information and files and screenshot: The tiff (first photograph) does reflow. The .afphoto with an adjustment layer on top does not (second photograph with opened reflow panel). New information: Merging the layers to the background layer seems to work. AND merging the layers to a new layer on the top seems to work (third photograph). I attach a publisher file with filler text and three photographs I used for the screenshot above. I hope this helps.

Staff Gabe Posted December 18, 2019 Staff Share Posted December 18, 2019 Thanks. It looks like it's got something to do with that adjustment layer. For the meantime, press the "Edit text wrap outine" and that should revert it back to the correct outline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reinhardmohr Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Hi, Gabe, thanks a lot – this worked like a charm! I hadn't noticed this button before.

dferber Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 This needs to be fixed quickly. None of the above suggestions work for me and I'm well into working on my first major project using Publisher. I've tried several different image formats and the editing the text wrap box, without sucess. Hoping I don't need to bailout of Publisher and go back to InDesign.

Joachim_L Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Move your placed images into a picture frame and make wrap settings for the picture frame. 14 hours ago, dferber said: I've tried several different image formats and the editing the text wrap box, without sucess.
