walt.farrell Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 What is your document DPI? Also, are there any error messages in the Export dialog?

walt.farrell Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Thanks. So the document is 17280 x 8640 pixels, which fits within the maximum pixel dimensions of a PSD file. Do you have any error messages showing in the Export dialog? Can you provide a screenshot of the dialog?

Use document -> resize and change DPI to 72 DPI. When I did this the file exports as PSD on my iPad version of Affinity Designer V2. maxcelmishra 1 Quote My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools….

I've been away from my computers most of the day. @maxcelmishra: At 300 DPI, your file dimensions are 72000 x 36000 px, which exceeds the PSD maximum of 30000 x 30000 px. So as Paul mentioned, you'll need to change the DPI to 125 or lower. Note that the application told you this when you tried to Export. Here's what I see, with the document set at 72 300 DPI: maxcelmishra and Paul Mudditt 2 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Layer Desgin seems to be the cause of your problem. After rasterising this Layer I was able to export as PSD.

If you select this layer and zoom out, it is very very very big. I am sure that was part of the problem. Rasterise and trimming to the document boundaries seemed to solve it.

Here I only do one which speeds up the export but there are several more very large pixel layers (even though the text describes them as vector layers) that could also be 'rasterised & trimmed' to speed up the processing. Better still, find where you got those large image layers from and import them as vectors not pixel layers. If you imported from PSD files check these settings.

Better than having 1.5GB bitmap as a background layer. Vector Assets.afassets Quote My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools…. Just waiting for Ronny Pickering…..
