Is there a way to export N-Up in Affinity Publisher in Mac?


Recommended Posts

That's usually something the coresponding printer drivers do offer then as settings.

Export N-Up? No. 

As v_kyr mentioned, that's a Print function, if it's available.

Yes. Print to file and convert with Distiller or use a PDF printer. Hope I understood the question correctly?

Short side note: I achieved the best results with PDF24, at least if you want to export to anything other than standard paper sizes. In addition to PDF, you can directly export to JPG, PNG, TIFF, PSD, and some other formats (including setting quality parameters)! To do so, chose "Save as ..." in the PDF24 Assistant (pops-up after you hit Print). Other things I tried:

  • Microsoft print to PDF: You can only use the standard formats, which are listed under Printer > Properties > Advanced. If you set anything else in the AP print dialog, it will be ignored and parts will get cut off (seems to use Letter (ANSI A) then). When opening PDF in AP the usual issues with text and the default color space is assigned as it is not stored in the PDF.
  • Microsoft print to PDF > Print to File: Gives you an XPS file, which AP can open. Otherwise, same as above.
  • Microsoft XPS Doc Writer: Gives you an OXPS, which can be viewed by the XPS viewer only, with no possibility to export or extract content. AP cannot open it.
  • Microsoft XPS Doc Writer > Print to File: Gives you an XPS file, which AP cannot open. Therefore same as above.
