Ducky Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Spent a ton of time designing a highway billboard with Affinity Designer. Ready to send to the printer and i cannot export to PSD or PDF. I get the error, "An error has occurred while exporting to..." Supposed to go to the printer today, so not a great first impression. There are 3 files the main billboard design is 1.6GB, (are you serious?) i have attached a small portion of the sign, as that is a smaller file size. And very basic design. Please advise how to export to psd, and reduce the enormity of the design file? highway-merritt-cell-phone-FINAL.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
