MikeTO Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Hi Holly, are you still experiencing this problem with 2.0.3? I think there have been other reports of problems with exporting a Publisher file with linked resources in certain situations but I haven't heard of Publisher files becoming corrupted. The linked files aren't in the document, just the path, so there is possibly another reason your file has been corrupted. Are there any other details you can share? I also noticed you posted similar questions in two other threads so perhaps your issue is already resolved or in the process of being resolved.

hollytuen Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 yes i got the previous publisher file corrupted and recovered by the team here. and i have another corrupted file needed to be saved! i know the linked files are not embedded in the files but just links - yet they don't update automatically once the linked files themselves are updated MikeTO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred O Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Hello there! I have the same problem: Affinity Designer file got suddenly corrupted. I was stored on a external hard drive. (I will change that from now on.) Please recover this file for me: Affinity Designer version used: 1.10.5.1342 Thank you very much!

MikeTO Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Hi Fred and welcome to the forum. I don't know much about artboards but it looks like you've encountered an issue with an artboard. While I couldn't open or place this in Designer, I was able to use this file in Publisher. Try these steps. Create a new document in Publisher - you might as well create it with the same page size as your Designer file to make it easy for yourself. Choose Document > Add Pages from File. You will be prompted to convert artboards to spreads. Click Yes. Then you'll be shown the Add Pages from Files window - don't change anything and just click OK. With the resulting document you should be able to copy and paste the content back to Designer to create a clean document.

Staff NathanC Posted February 21, 2023 Staff Share Posted February 21, 2023 Hi @hollytuen apologies on the late reply, If you still want us to try and recover your file, could you upload your file to the below dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/request/WykwhzGSSjJSK0oMoohE Also, could you confirm the below in regard to the file: Which Operating System are you using? Which version of Affinity did the file last get saved in? What drive type was the file last saved to (select more than one if needed)? Local disk USB disk/Flash disk Google Drive folder OneDrive folder iCloud folder Dropbox folder Network location Other (please specify) 4. Any other information you think would help us try to find the problem? Many Thanks 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
