Affinity Publisher: Extracting the search result

[Pyanepsion]

Hello to all,

Either text sequences that use a format, or a character style or a paragraph style.

How do I export or copy the result of our search to use it outside Affinity Publisher?

One application among others is to quickly check that a first name among many others is written in a uniform manner throughout the document.

Thank you for your explanations.

There's no way to do that, as far as I know.

There is in fact one. However, it appears to be particularly long and tedious.

Replace all the characters that don't match the search with a space (or another symbol) and then copy the whole thing into another tool like Word or Notepad++. Since Affinity Publisher does not yet know how to extract the result of a search, this might be a good suggestion for improvement.
