Affinity and ingramspark pdf x1a:2001

[Janekoke]

Hi,

I bought affinity publisher years back but have never used it. I have done my book layout with the publisher and I want to hear how I can export my files in a format accepted by ingramspark since affinity doesn't have PDF X 1a: 2001.

I look forward to hear from you since I am going crazy having done all the work but doesnt seem worth it.

Regards,

Jane.

Hi @Janekoke,

Welcome to the Affinity Forums

I've not personally used IngramSpark, however the below thread has multiple users confirming that the PDF/X-3:2003 format worked for their uploads -

So I would recommend trying this option and letting us know if this is accepted!

Hi @Dan C,

Thank you for your response much appreciated. I managed to work on it through trial and errors and I used pdf/x-1a:2003 of which Ingramspark accepted my file with no issues. It has been a journey but I have learnt so much about affinity through trial and errors and I have fallen in love with the publisher thanks God I bought it.

regards,
Jane.
