Bug in text box freezing the file


Recommended Posts

Hi dears,

I'm really a big fan of Affinity Publisher and the other tools of the suite (in fact I bought all), but a recent crash in a .afpub file got me really disappointed.

After 2 full days working on a  book project, the file just crashed. I was editing a text box, and suddenly the file freezed, and now I cannot edit it anymore.

I installed the 1.8.4 beta version as suggested and opened the file, but the issue remains. It is not possible to edit nothing.

Please help me to solve this problem, because it is a professional project and several authors (including myself) depend on my work in this book.

I put the file for your inspection here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y5XQf0UkgP7xQRXqlfYdArAZLzbsVtYs/view?usp=sharing

 

Thank you.

I downloaded your file and opened it in Publisher 1.9.4.651 successfully. I can also edit the text so I'm not sure why you experience problems at your end.

I resaved the file and uploaded it here if you think that this may be of any help to you.

Hi both,

first of all, thanks for your fast feedback. I tried to open the file sent by Seneca, but unfortunately  the problem still remains. 

In addition, now the file freezes for edition as soon as it starts.

If possible, do you know how can I download the Publisher 1.9.4.651?

 

Dear Gabe,

I upload the files (it is only 3 images and the afpub) on Dropbox as requested.

 

Thanks for now,

Claudio

It looks like it's the BAHNSCHRIFT font that's causing the issue. I've replaced all BAHNSCHRIFT instances with Times New Roman and it seems to be fine now :)

Thanks a lot for your helping! I opened here and its now ok, then probably that font was the problem.
