EmmiV Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Help! I have a file that I have been working on for a while. It was originally an idml file that I converted to Affinity. Publisher now crashes within seconds of me opening the file. I can't even export it, because it crashes too fast. Can anyone help? This is a project I'm getting paid for, so I really need to be able to work on it. File is attached.

PaulEC Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Not that this really helps, but it opens for me (on Windows) with no problem, (other than complaining about some missing resources). It opens in all three apps, so if you have the others, it might be worth trying to open it in AD or APhoto.

Staff Callum Posted June 6, 2022 Staff Share Posted June 6, 2022 Hi EmmiV, This file also opens correctly for me however some of the images are missing so this crash may be being caused by a corrupt image etc. Please could you try opening my attached copy to see if it works for you?

You don't need to do anything right now, as a Moderator can move this one to the right forum, if they want to, but I thought I'd mention it for future bug reports that you post.

I keep mixing up Designer and Publisher, even though I use both a lot. Not sure what's going on in my brain. 🤦♀️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks C Luier infographic Fratzhosen-resaved.afpub 3.03 MB · 0 downloads @Callum Thanks! I tried opening the file in a new profile on my mac and it worked there too, since the linked images weren't there. So I had a look and resaved the psd files (3 files) as afphoto files, removed the psd files and opened the document again. It didn't crash then, just told me it was missing some resources, confirming that the problem was with the images. I then replaced those images using the resource manager and I haven't had any crashes since! So thank you for helping me figure out where the problem was Not sure why those images were a problem though, but at least it works again!
