peterwespi Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Hi @all I just analyzed an ugly Publisher bug with the help of the Facebook Publisher group. For books with about 70 to 130 pages with about 300 small music graphics (Affinity Designer, linked, not embedded, no one is bigger than 100 KB), I can start Affinity and open the file. After about 2 minutes, Publisher freezes for about 30 to 40 minutes (!!!), the apple beach ball occurs. After this time, normal working is possible. I checked the issue: Create a new new, equal document >> same issue Than remove all music graphics >> no problem Insert hundreds of large jpg, eps and png graphics, some larger than 100 MB >> no problem Placing the orignial music graphics >> hello problem... I'm using the music font Opus and the workflow with music graphics is: Create a music file with Sibelius Export graphic as PDF Opening PDF with Affinity Designer Edit the file, save as Designer file Import Designer file direct as link in Publisher It really does NOT depend on my computer, RAM, GHz, SSD, file places etc. It's just the Publisher that is causing the problem.

Staff stokerg Posted February 28, 2022 Staff Share Posted February 28, 2022 Hi @peterwespi, Could you attach the PDF you are placing and that causes a slow down? Also which version of MacOS are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterwespi Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 Here my "About this mac". Because of the copyright, I'll send you the PDF with a message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
