Thanks, I've reproduced this and passed it on

Could Serif provide a hotfix release, please?

I've finished an art catalog containing more than 200 pics... I can't re-fit all those pics :^(

I can't say if/when the next patch or beta will be out but if the bug is prevent your work you can downgrade on Windows here.

I'll let you know if I find a workaround in the mean time

Not possible because version 1.7.3 quits with "The file contains features of a later version of Affinity."

The question is, was this bug already in the older versions or newly introduced with 1.8.2? Installing 1.8.0 maybe worth a try?

1.8.0 fails too

@Serif, please provide a hot-fix release... otherwise I can't send the PDF to the printer and I loose the job!

Hi Olk, have you tried the latest Beta, there is a fix that might solve your problem. Normally Serif do not recommend using Betas for production work, but they are recommending that you use it if affected by any of the bug fixes they have listed, this fix might work. I use Mac so can't test it for you.
