Beta program

[despin]

I am interested in switching our printshop to Affinity software in the next year, starting from the moment Affinity Publisher comes out. Why? Because it is great software, sometimes even better and faster than its Adobe counterparts.

 

Is there a way to get into the beta program for Affinity Photo and Designer? I own Affinity Photo and Designer. And even more I want to get in the alpha or beta program for Publisher.

 

In our Printshop we have a Apogee CTP-rip so I can render pdf's to see if some features produce print errors and so on. I am used to preflighting and checking pdf's for  CTP-work.

We also have a Xerox rip.

If we switch to Affinity for our entire team, we need 10 copies of Photo, Designer and Publisher.

 

I love trying good software, feature tryout and thinking about future features, and work in one other beta program for Tumult Hype (Web design). I also design websites and do video production so I can use output from Affinitys software for various purposes.

Off course I do this for free.

 

Sincerely,

Korneel Bonte

Hi Korneel,

 

Welcome to the forums.

 

With you having purchased and installed Affinity from the App Store you have access to the betas of Designer and Photo. We will be starting a new beta cycle soon and you will be able to access them from the beta sections of this forum when they're available. 

 

We're looking at having the beta of Publisher ready for the end of 2016. 

 

Hope this helps

The Designer 1.4.2 beta 1 is available via the sub-forum here, and the Photo sub-forum is here. There isn't currently a beta for Photo; the Mac App Store version is the most recent.
