BKFC Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I'm running Affinity Publisher 1.10.4 on a Mac (11.6), and use it to create pdf files for a photo album for printing. I 'place' photos onto the workspace. When I close Publisher and re-launch it, almost all the photos are out of focus, and can take several minutes before the images are sharp. If I click on an image, sometimes it comes into focus right away, sometimes not. But in addition, if i move to another location in the file, and then move back, photos that were in focus have fallen out of focus. If I could get the focus back immediately, that would be one thing, but sometimes the photos stay out of focus for several minutes. I have checked the Mac Activity Monitor, and neither CPU nor memory is necessarily taxed. Is there some sort of setting where I can speed up, and maintain, image focus?

Old Bruce Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 You Place files, they are probably linked. Takes a while for the application to load all the data from the linked file at the placed size. If you have lots of RAM this should be less of a problem with moving about the publication. If you have all the images placed and Embedded instead of Linked this should (with more It is not Focus but Low vs High Resolution presentations of the files. If the images are the size they will be in the publication then there is no scaling needed which will improve time to High resolution.

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