Importier - Exportieren von IDML, PDFs

[Ludwig Sonntag]

why does the publisher refuse to export and save IDML, PDFs etc. that were created with InDesign and were then exported / saved accordingly as described? Thanks in advance for an info. Greetings, Ludwig

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, Ludwig.

First, it would have been more appropriate to post this in the Questions forum, not the Resources forum. Perhaps a moderator will see it and move it.

I think we'll need a better description than "refuse to export and save", but I'll mention that Publisher does not export IDML files at all. Publisher provides only import support for IDML files.

Can you provide more details of your workflow, and exactly where it fails, and exactly how the failure manifests (messages, etc.), please? Also, what version of Publisher, and what OS, do you have?

[Ludwig Sonntag]

Hello walt.farell,

I have Publisher 1.8.3

Importing IDML into Publisher works, but the export is refused and the following message always appears: Error saving the document: / User / ludwigsonntag / Dokument / .... Ohne Titel.aftemplate Error saving. Access denied. (ACCESS),

Thanks.

A couple of things you might try, to see if they work. If they do, that might help with diagnosis of the problem.

1. Exporting to a different directory, or with a simpler file name.
2. Saving as a .afpub file.

Hi wal.farell,

Hello, exactly as you describe it, I export with .afpub file

No, you used File > Export as Template. That's why you see .aftemplate as the file extension.

If you want a .afpub file you use File > Save, not File > Export.

[Ludwig Sonntag]

I try to save the file as .afpub all the time

- anyway: error when saving - access denied!

I am demoralized! Should reinstall all Affinity programs?

I created a magazine with InDesign Creatic Suite in 2016. I have created a PDF file from the magazine! From this PDF I imported the title page (pdf) into Publisher.

Windows 10 and the latest version of Indesign subscription.
I have not been able to import into Publisher an idml file with many images anchored to the text.
In Indesign, an image that is anchored to text has several possible options.
When I try to open a very consistent document with these features the program closes without error messages

[Ludwig Sonntag]

oh - I can't help because I don't work with Windows! Sorry, Ludwig

I think you should create a new topic in the appropriate Bugs forum, feste. I don't think you have the same problem that Ludwig is describing.

Hello walt.farell,

my problem seems to be solved - I imported a PDF from another job and then saved it - without any problems. So the folder with documents must be damaged or ...!

[walt.farrell]

Interesting. Thanks. Glad it's solved.

By the way, you seem to be posting using the "Code" function (the icon that looks like <> in the posting interface). It's better to just post normal text, usually

[walt.farrell]

Also, I'm going to ask a moderator to move this to the Questions topic; when that happens you may lose your "Following" status for it.

Hello, I imported a completely different document from another job today with the result: Imported without problems - saved, saved under and exported! I think the file is broken - how and why I don't know, but I will probably not use the folder anymore.
Thanks for your help and patience.
Greetings, Ludwig

sorry Ludwig, for the great delay, but I had not received notification of response and I forgot.
The document I sent has been printed for several days. The document was not corrupt, nor broken.
The lines of the document included anchored vector objects: many objects, with shadows applied.
The document was not corrupt, but it was complex. I hope I can achieve the next one with Affinity, for this reason I tried to import it without apology though.
