Installing Brushes/Assets In Suite Across Devices

[ACDesignStudio]

I will be having to use my laptop for an indefinite length of time instead of my beloved desktop. When I think about all of the brushes, fonts and assets that I've added to my desktop Affinity suite, I feel sick thinking about having to duplicate all of this work on my laptop. Is there a way that I can bulk copy over these downloaded brushes, fonts and assets to my laptop Affinity apps?

If not, any tips to make it easier and faster?

Thanks so much!

Requires a little bit of work, but not really all that much. Backup Resources, tutorial, also demonstrates what you are asking about. Just export the brushes, assets, macros, ect. then import them into your apps on your laptop.

All fonts are installed to your operating system not the Affinity apps so you would need to copy and install them that way to your laptop

Unless you have Publisher, which will allow you to copy/install them another way

 

For brushes and assets, you could consider copying the propcol files which would be quick and easy if it works and relatively harmless if it does not

Which apps and OS are you using on your Desktop and Laptop?

I have the Affinity Suite, which includes Publisher. About the fonts, I was referring to setting my favorites fonts within each app. I have quite a few of them and would have to do that in all 3 apps. Not horrendous but just more time and effort. Would have to try to remember and pick out all of my favs from the gazillion Microsoft fonts on my system. When I added fonts I immediately set them as favs in the apps.

I have the Suite, all 3 Affinity apps and Win10.

This seems like a quick way to do it. Then, I'd just have to deal with the tedious fonts install onto the laptop and the setting of my fav fonts in each app.
