pomme27 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I have a large number of .afdesign files that contain illustrations for a book. I periodically have to export the current version of each illustration to a .png file. To do this, I currently perform the following steps on each file: 1. Open the .afdesign file 2. Click File > Export 3 . Ensure PNG, image size and "whole document" selections are correct (they are static for each of my illustration files) 4 Click Export 5. Click Save This 5-step process is not hard, but it is tedious when I have to do a lot of files. Is there an easier way to do the exports? I know that AffinityDesigner offers a Continuous Export feature, but I believe this only works with slices. Or maybe there is a way to use Mac Automator to automate the keystrokes, so that with the press of one key, a macro performs the above five steps?

Oval Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Everything is possible, e.g. with Keyboard Maestro. Great, if AD would make it possible to export many files and formats in one single step with retrievable settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Leigh Posted August 13, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 13, 2015 It's not possible to automate this process in Affinity Designer, sorry! I guess you could automate the steps by recording your workflow in Automator. Let us know how you get on :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
