Affinity Publisher not Exporting to PDF


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone has come across the following error when exporting to PDF before?...

image.png.e57cdc25e70e525bc2cccb9067570344.png

 

The document just simply won't PDF using default settings! We have done everything we normally do - all images are linked.

However, if we rasterize all images (not ideal), the document will PDF.

Just curious to see if anyone has come across this error before and if anyone has a SOLUTION! 😀

The Publisher file is not particularly large - so I'm really not sure what the issue is...

Any input on this one would be greatly appreciated!

There's a FAQ article that describes how to enable logging of the PDF export process. Perhaps if you did that the log would tell you what was wrong, which might be interesting to know for future reference.

We have found the rogue JPG file!...

Glad you mentioned the rogue file. I imported an indd In Design file file to Publisher but got the same export error. In my case I'm guessing it was a linked file that got move, and fortunately images in just the 1st two pages, So, I just replaced the two images. The conversion process sure worked slick, and I'm glad to be free from idml and indd. :)
