Change from Interpret to Passthrough causes a crach


Recommended Posts

Affinity Publisher crashes everytime when I change linked PDF from interpret to passthrough. PDF is version 1.7. After placement of file  it is automatically set to passthrough. Preflight immediately shows a message that PDF 1.7 is incompatible and will be rasterized. Change of PDF version 1.5 does not help, it is also incompatible. Afer changing to interpret message disappears. After change back to passtrhough I get immediate crash. We do not want PDFs to be rasterized. So what is PDF compatibility then?

What is Preflight is telling you, is based on its setting. Just change the compatiblilty level to something else (e.g. PDF 1.7) in your preflight profile. For the crash, a crash report or the PDF causing this would be helpful for the developers.

@Scott_A No crash for me on 1.9.2.1035 or 1.10.0.1098 although the file renders a bit slowly on my side. Both versions with hardware acceleration on.

Additionally when I open the file in both versions the white shadow at the top dates will be rendered as black in Passthrough and not in Interpret, but will export correctly.
