A 2-page Affinity Publisher file with images and text saved in June as 35Mb.

Today I corrected one character on page 1 and the file reduced to 25Mb.

Why would this happen?

Additionally when I export each page to Tiff, the pages are only 5Mb, whereas both pages previously exported at 25 to 28 Mb. The settings appear to be exactly the same. Why the huge reduction in size?

Hi @MKR

I don't know the file internals, I can only explain the differences to you in that the image data is saved uncompressed in the Affinity files.

Only one of the developers or one of the staff moderators could give you a proper explanation.

... or search the forum - the issue of files, their size, and jumping size reduction when exceeding a certain limit (reduction and rearrangement of file content is not carried out continuously for reasons of performance, but always after reaching a set limit - a completely common technique) has been discussed here and explained by developers many times.
