Absturz beim Arbeiten Masterseiten


AALEXX

Recommended Posts

Hallo.

ich baue Bücher schwarzweiß (nur Text) in Affinity Publisher auf. Der Text mit ca. 400 Seiten wird mittels einer Worddatei platziert. Die Kapitel-Umbrüche und Formatierungen der Überschriften mache ich mit Masterseiten. Das funktioniert im Grunde sehr gut. Das Problem ist, dass die ersten Formatierungen (ca. die ersten 100 Seiten) zwar noch einigermaßen gut laufen, aber mit der Zeit das Programm immer langsamer wird. Wenn ich bei Seite 200 bin, bedeutet jeder Klick auf "Masterseite anwenden" eine Wartezeit von 2-3 Minuten. Dann dauert es nicht mehr lang, bis das Programm komplett abstürzt.

Und das, obwohl die gesamte Datei nur 900 KB hat.

Mein PC läuft unter Windows 10 und hat 8 GB RAM.

---

Jemand eine Idee wie man das Verbessern kann ohne auf Indesign umzusteigen?

LG Alex

Hi Gabe,

I have made the upload.

During the working in Affinity with files about 400 pages thy working memory reached a process of 3.6 GB RAM, when I use master pages also when I do other formattings.

This is the reason why my computer crashed, said my computer specialist, because I have just 8 GB RAM

But I can´t understand why Affiniy use 3,6 GM RAM for working with a file of 900 KB.

Greetings,

Alex

There is quite a lot of text (over 300 pages worth of text) so during certain operations (like applying masters to many pages) it will go up. However, this should go down eventually. I can't replicate a crash on my end though. Can you consistently replicate the crash?

Yes, every time I do workings with that file it crashes after some formattings. The solution was to do some work and save the file every 5 minutes. It crashed often, but so I finished this job.

I think it depends on the working memory. May be you have an apple mac or a higher working memory.

I bought additional memory for my computer last week, so now I have 16 GB RAM. I hope it will work in the future.

Thanks! Alex

 

PS: since the last update of Affinity Publisher the text-lineal is no more available. Is this too your business or should I write a new post?

I do not think it depends on the working memory. My machine has 8 GB and works with documents having more than 300 pages.

Maybe you could post a crash report in this thread? You'll find the crash reports here: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Publisher\1.0\CrashReports\reports

What is your current installed version? Mine is the latest retail version 1.8.5.703 and it shows the text ruler.

Yes. And installing it. And using it. ;) But be warned, once saved in 1.9x, the document cannot be opened with 1.8.5x. The betas are just meant for testing purposes.

ok, I´ve done your test.

I worked with my file, 320 Sites, 900 kb only text. In this book I have 21 chapters which I have formatted with three different master pages.

So I repeated my work and formatted them all new.

The first 100 pages it works and then while procceding the used working memory grew, to 4 GB RAM, to 6 GB an then until 10.5 GB RAM. My machine did not crashed because a had made an upgrate to 16 GM RAM. But my task-manager shows me alarming red 95% usage - for there are other processes in my working memory, you know.

result: the same problem - not better.

And by the way, the text lineal is also not visible.

Is it not visible, because all my textframes are formatted with master pages? But I need a text lineal there to format the tab stops

 

be blessed! Alex

ok, I try to describe my workflow again:

open the data file, 320 pages master A (text without heading)

there are 23 chapters, starting left or right, so my choice was to formate this chapter pages with master C (left page) or master B (right page)

starting at page 1 I went forward and use my master pages in the chapters.

on the attached pictres you can see the progress and the RAM usage

 

Regards, Alex
