BlueSailing Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 As I continue to use APum more and more, I'm exporting documents in a variety of ways, ie PDFs, images, etc In Windows, the File TYPE is always listed as "Affininty Publisher File". Is there a config setting such that PDFs, etc will show up as 'PDF" when exported, or as "Affinity PDF"? Quote
walt.farrell Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I would recommend, first, that you use the options in File Explorer to show the extension (e.g., .pdf) as part of the file name. Currently you have that information hidden. E.g., As far as that Type column: That's showing the default application that will open that file if you double-click on it. You can choose another application if you want. Right-click on one of the PDF files, choose Properties, then click the Change button to change which application it opens with: BlueSailing 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
