PDF Export damage

Recommended Posts

Hey, 

 

unfortunately, Affinity Publisher is very buggy. Very sad about it. I started my first Project in that tool in the hope i don't need InDesign anymore, but Publisher is not very stable and have a lot of small and big bugs. 

Here is one big problem. If i try to export the Book (contains 160 pages) than all the texts are broken. But i can't figure out why. It's a text where i used a Mask to integrate it to the picture. First, i just kept the font like it is with the mask. But in the PDF it was broken. Then i converted the font in to curves. But still the same. The main problem is that if i do multiple exports, the problem is always on a different page. So it seems like a rendering problem and not a specif problem with the curves or font. 

 

This is very anoying and with this behavior i cant use publish for any kind of work. 

 

Here is a picture of the problem. And also, even the font is a curve. I get these tiny fragments which should not be visible.

There are many things you can do that will cause rasterization, including various layer effects. Can you share a sample .afpub document that exhibits this problem, so we can help determine if that's what happened?

Hallo Kalle Karl!

Zum platzieren von Bildern in einem Text, gibt es im Publisher das Werkzeug „Grafiktext“. Schreibe damit den gewünschten Text und platziere das Bild über den Text. Nun muss man das Bild „ausschneiden“, den Text auswählen und mit „innerhalb einfügen“ das Bild platzieren. Jetzt kann man noch die Feinabstimmung (gewünschter Ausschnitt und Größe) machen und schon ist alles fertig. Im Übrigen kann Publisher mehr als Indesign, der Text lässt sich mit dem eingefügten Bild in jeder Art und Weise neu formatieren oder verändern.
