Hello everybody,

I searched for this topic but couldn't find it. I apologize should the question already have been asked and answered. In that case please send me a link to the topic.

So, I want to format a novel with Affinity Publisher.

In the manuscript there is simply used * * * as a scene break but in the pdf I want an image in its place. Always the same image I might add.

Until now I've only formatted shorter stories so I simply deleted the * * * and inserted the image which I then copied and pasted. To do this with a 400+ page novel is simply too much and frankly, I can't imagine that there isn't a way to replace all * * * with an image at once. I took a closer look at the "search and replace" function but couldn't find an option to do it there so I hope to find help here.

Is there a simple way to solve this problem?

I'm grateful for every help!

The Find and Replace option would be ideal for this apart from it doesn't have an option to replace text (characters) with an image. I think for now you will need to manually go through the document to replace them.

It's a good idea and it's worth posting in the Feature Requests section of the forum, you never know it may be something thats added in a future update.
