IanSG Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 In AfPub, "Add Pages from File" only selects .afpub files as suitable candidates even though PDF, EPS etc. seem to work OK. Is this an oversight or are .afpub files handled differently? Quote AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 What release of Publisher? I've tried both 1.8.2 and 1.8.3 beta.

IanSG Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 I'm running 1.8.2.620 - I don't have the beta yet but I'll give that a go. The files listed in your dialogue are the same as my Open File dialogue - yet they're missing from Add Files! <edit> The beta, 1.8.3.627, is exactly the same! Strangely, I tried resetting 1.8.2 before I played with the beta. It didn't change anything but, as expected, it wiped the recently opened files list. When I installed and opened the beta, that list had been populated! Maybe my PC's haunted! Quote AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beta and retail releases are completely separate, and do not share any settings. If you had a recent files list in the beta I presume you must have had a prior beta installed, and you're seeing its list of recent files.

Agreed, except that I've never had a prior beta, and the list of recent files was definitely the same as 1.8.2's before I wiped it! Needless to say it's changed after a reboot!!
