kwarde1 Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 Hello, I wanted to ask whether Publisher has a function to export live text and strokes as outlined similar to InDesign (though a bit buggy) The way you would do it InDesign is Edit > Transparency Flattener Presets > New > tick "convert all text to outlines" > save preset Then Export > change adobe preset to "PDF/X-1a:2001" > compatibility to "Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3)" > advanced > Transparancy Flattener drop down menu to the preset made above > Export Upon export, the PDF would have all the live text converted to outIines. Is there a similar function in Publisher? Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Are you thinking, perhaps, of this option? It's near the bottom of the expanded list of export options you get by clicking the More button when exporting a PDF file.

kwarde1 Posted March 9, 2022 Author Posted March 9, 2022 You are an absolute gem, thanks so much - I didn't think it would be so simple and right in front of me 😅 walt.farrell 1 Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 Well, "right in front of you" if you think to click More, scroll down a ways, and click on the Font Embedding pulldown. It feels a bit hidden, to me 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.

kwarde1 Posted March 9, 2022 Author Posted March 9, 2022 Well compared to the trawling through menus, shifting through 5 year old forums posts, courting, and completing the 12 labours of adobe to find the same function - it almost felt too good to be true 😂 Quote
