Affinity Publisher2 - Symbol texte resized automatically

[krhonan]

Hello, 

 

I'm trying to make a symbol for a QR code logo that will be present 4 or 5 time in the box i'm making. But when i create the symbol my texte shrink and i don't get why.

Anybody knows what to do here ?

Thanks for the help and reading.

Hi Krhonan,

Welcome to the forums

If possible could you provide a copy of the symbol in question so I can look into this further with you?

Thanks

A .afpub or .afdesign file would probably be more useful, as in PDF form it's not a Symbol any more.

I presume that you must be creating it in the Designer Persona of Publisher? When does the text change size? Is it while you're working with it, or when you Export?

Just in case: if you resize a Frame Text object (different than Art Text) or a group containing such, you need to drag the outer handle in the bottom right corner. Dragging one of the four 'normal' corner handles and scaling via Transform panel will not scale the text size but its frame size only
