vickio Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi, I am starting a ten day trial. Previously used aperture and wondering how to import photos directly from aperture to Affinity please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted September 25, 2015 Staff Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi vickio, Welcome to the forums. You'll need to export your image from Aperture, then open the exported image in Affinity Photo. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoBu Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 You'll need to export your image from Aperture, then open the exported image in Affinity Photo. Why this? Just open the Media Browser in AP with "Shift + Cmd + M". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted September 25, 2015 Staff Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi Lobu, The Media Browser won't let you import the original RAW file. @vickio Welcome to Affinity Forums :) You can either right-click on an image then select Export ▸ Original... to export the RAW file to the Finder and then to Affinity Photo as Lee D suggested or set an External Photo Editor in Aperture ▸ Preferences..., Export tab (on top). This last option lets you send the images in PSD or TIFF (both 8 and 16 bits) but it doesn't work quite well with Affinity Photo yet since we don't support layered Tiff's (coming later), and we don't overwrite PSD's by design (meaning Aperture can't keep track of the edited image after you save it since Photo will only allow you to save it in Photo's native format .afphoto).
