Petar Petrenko Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Hi, is it, by any chance, possible Affinity Spotlight to become a monthly PDF magazine? Something like Adobe has Creative Pro (ex. InDesign Magazine)?

RNKLN Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Actually, that's how Spotlight started, a pdf type of magazine one could download. Serif published two magazines before the switched to the current model.

RNKLN Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Objectively, the current model may be better but for some reason I also prefer to look forward to something that's released periodically.

RNKLN Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 In the meantime, it would be nice if somebody could share the two magazines. I haven't been able to find them on my hard drive, somehow. Such a pity. 😥 Petar Petrenko 1 Quote Affinity Photo - Affinity Designer - Affinity Publisher | macOS Sonoma (14.5) on 16GB MBP14 2021 with 2.5.X versions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was provided to customers who purchased the Affinity Publisher Workbook, which is no longer published. As far as I know there were no updates to the digital resources used in that Workbook, nor the resources used in the corresponding Photo and Designer Workbooks, all of which were published only for V1. bici 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Right! I forgot that it was part of my purchase of Affinity Publisher Workbook. What a great move on my part to have made the purchase. An invaluable resource. Thanks Walt.
