sorinciupitu Posted December 23, 2022 Author Share Posted December 23, 2022 I cannot send those files because they belong to the client and are protected by contract. It's not just those, in general when I have this kind of workflow, Publisher crashes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkasai Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Hello, I have the same problem, as also described here: I have attached two test files, that show the problem (a linking parent-file (Publisher), an a linked child-file (Designer)). (after having changed the "test-linked" file, Publisher cannot open the "test-linking"-file anymore) test-linked.afdesign test-linking.afpub Edited December 28, 2022 by dkasai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Works fine here on Mac OS 11.7 The two files are both in my Downloads folder. Where are the files on your system? This problem could be caused if you are using a Cloud service or Network to store the Designer file. And finally make sure the General section of Preferences for Publisher has this checked "Automatically update linked resources when modified externally". Then when you save the file in Designer it will be updated in Publisher. Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkasai Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I also use the Downloads folder, and it still doesn't work for me with the two example files (Mac OS 12.4.). But strangely, when keeping the parent file open, it works. I'm not sure, under which conditions the error occurs. I just tested updating a linked file (parent and child on iCloud, working on Desktop and IPad) - and now it worked again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
