a_sad_squid Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hi, I'm currently working on the figures for my dissertation. Herefore, I made figures like bar graphs and kinetic curves in GraphPad prism, and want to compile them in Affinity Designer. Therefore I need to copy the figures from GraphPad into Affinity Designer (in contrast to just saving a jpeg in GraphPad and drag dropping it to AfDes), because I still need to adjust the size of titles, legends etc. But unfortunately, when I paste the GraphPad files into Affinity Designer, it pastes very...selectively. Graph titles or figure legends aren't pasted, them being the exactly what I need to adjust in Affinity Designer. I attached a file where you can see what I mean. I am not sure wether the problem predominantely lies in Affinity Designer, I've also contacted GraphPad support, so I'm aware of that. Has anyone had such a problem as well? I know, working with these two programms at once is very specific, but maybe someone has an idea. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee_T Posted July 11, 2022 Staff Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hi a_sad_squid, welcome to the forums. This is a known issue, the known workaround is to export as SVG or as a rasterised format. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_sad_squid Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Hi LeeThorpe, unfortunately, that doesn't do the trick either. Is there anything else I can do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee_T Posted July 12, 2022 Staff Share Posted July 12, 2022 You could use third party/online software to convert and import but as it's just a few headings, just recreate them, in all honesty anything else would take far longer.

Staff Dan C Posted July 12, 2022 Staff Share Posted July 12, 2022 @a_sad_squid, You may wish to try exporting as PDF from GraphPad, and then use File > Place in Designer to introduce the graph to your file - does this provide better results? Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!
