Piet84 Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hello I have trouble during the export of .afpub to .pdf. It does export but images and text on multiple pages in the outcome pdf file are cropped, displaced, some texts appear twice, some left out, etc. I have added an example of the afpub page and the exported pdf page. Does anyone experience similar trouble? And does anyone has a answer and or solution? Thanks in advance for the reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hi @Piet84 and welcome to the forums, Without seeing the Publisher file it's going to be extremely difficult to diagnose, are you happy to upload it so we can take a look?

jmwellborn Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 @Piet84 is it possible that when exporting to PDF you are choosing the option “Spreads?” If so, could you try exporting again, but choose “All Pages.” This looks very much like something that was happening to me some time ago.

urbancoop Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 It happens, when "all pages" is selected. Workaround: Re-Placing all pdfs manually. lots of work Also, exporting a single page as jpg is not working. The programme stops responding, doesn't quit anymore...

Hangman Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hi @urbancoop, Which version of Publisher are you running, v2.1.0 or v2.1.1? If you want to Save as Package... and DM me your file I'd be happy to take a look for you, alternatively someone from Serif will provide a private Dropbox link for you, hopefully tomorrow.

Hangman Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Hi @Piet84 and @urbancoop, Which Page Box setting do you have selected in the Context Toolbar for your placed PDF files? There is a bug in v2.X affecting the Minimum and Maximum Content Page Boxes which causes placed PDF content to become cropped and misplaced. You can try changing the Page Box to Media Box and then re-exporting which 'should' export your files correctly... Note: Unfortunately, you will have to select each PDF on every page and change this setting (assuming this isn't already the current setting).
