PSD edit and PDF export for Print issues


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I have Affinity photo and having big issues with it:

 

1. It doesn't read the fonts from PSD files, so all the files look messed up until i fix it manually myself (the fonts inside the psd are not on my mac and the suggested fonts never look aligned ).

2. Once i export the file as PSD, the text can not be edited anymore after opening the PSD.

3. When i export the file as PDF for print, the pictures don't look as sharp and become kind of bright unlike in the original file, so i need to export as PNG instead to keep the look as the original.

 

I am using this app for designing brochures and ads.

 

The question is: Would it help if i'll buy Affinity Designer, or that app has the same core design/bugs?

The thing is that Affinity Photo gives me ALL i need, but these bugs....

 

Thanx, in advance.

Hi iTosaf,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

 

1. Currently Affinity Designer/Photo don’t support embedded fonts when importing PSD's. You have to install the original fonts to be able to edit the text.

2. We also don't support exporting native text to PSD. This is something we want to implement in a future version but it's not a trivial task.

3. Can you upload the file somewhere and post a link to it so we can check what's going on?

 

Regarding the last question, no, buying Designer will not solve those issues.
