Hello,  Has anyone else had the same problem with Font Manager in Windows? If you go to font manager and try to change a font, after you change it the font manager goes blank. You have to close it, then go back in for every font you need to change??

Thank You

Gerard

Hi Gerard,

I believe this is a known issue that is fixed in our latest beta builds. You can download the beta from the following link :)

Hello,   I just downloaded the beta versions of the Windows Programs and it puts a little B in the right corner of the 2.0.4 files. So, I saved one of my old Affinity Publisher files in the New 2.1 Beta Affinity Publisher Program, I tried to open it in Publisher 2.0.4 and it won't open the file. Be careful making new files in Publisher Beta, they won't open going back in 2.0.4 !  I'm sure it will be the same for Designer and Photo.

Thank Gerard

Yes, it's the same in as all three applications. There's a warning about that on the page where you go to sign-up, in the section on using it for production work, though it could be stronger:

Please also consider that documents saved in the beta versions may not be backward compatible with the currently released version.

Generally when the second number in the release value changes the files won't be backward compatible. Thus, 1.7 couldn't open 1.8 files, 1.8 couldn't open 1.9 files, and 2.0 can't open 2.1 files (though it could, earlier in the beta.

Yes .. my Photo 2 Beta crashes on load .. even the new one I downloaded today. I've ditched the beta and hope I can open some of my old Photo projects. I'm about to ditch my other beta Designer & beta Publisher applications too. Too risky. I may have a lot of work ahead of me :(
