The text 'ti' being transformed to 'Â'

[Last Chance]

I am finding that text from 1.7 files are being transformed when loaded saved in 1.8.

The letters 'ti' (as in 'ambitious') is now shown as 'Â' (i.e. 'ambiÂous'). Sorry, but I can't tell you if it was there on loading the document into 1.8, or after it was saved.

Just to clarify:

• Which Affinity application, and which OS?
• Are you talking about opening a native Affinity file (.afdesign, .afphoto, .afpub) or a PDF file?
• And are you Saving it as a native Affinity file or Exporting a PDF?

Ligature problem. I think that usually that happens when opening PDF, but you say it happens opening Affinity 1.7 file in Affinity 1.8?

It is being experienced in Publisher. The OS is Windows 10 and yes, this is when opening native .afpub files.

It's easy enough to correct (find/replace), but thought I'd just raise the issue 🙂 Here's a snapshot:

Thanks for the clarification and screenshots.

Hi @Last Chance,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you

There's been some changes in this area, can you try it in the latest beta and if it still gives you an issue upload the file here

Thanks
