SirWillibald Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Hi everybody, let me start by saying I love, love, love the new data merge feature from Publisher. I've almost managed to migrate my complete workflow from Photoshop to Affinity! Right now there's one critical issue left for me: I have created a new publisher document by using the data merge export. The product looks fine so far, but I need every single page to be exported to a PNG file with transparent background. The export tool automatically creates separate pages, great, but I'm unable to get a transparent background. When placing the png into a new Affinity Photo document with colored background, the export png has a white background with the size of the original Publisher document. Is there a way to achieve this? This would possibly allow me to cancel my Adobe subscription completely... Cheers, Christian aka SirWillibald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Set your Publisher document to have a transparent background. It is in the Colour section of the File > Document Setup...

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
