dcarvalho84 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Hi, this is a seriously one! I can't edit embedded document either double clicking or clicking the edit document button. MacOs ventura. The same in Designer. This need a quick fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Hi @dcarvalho84, I can confirm I'm seeing the same issue on macOS Monterey in all three apps... dcarvalho84 and MikeTO 2 Quote Affinity Designer 2.4.2 | Affinity Photo 2.4.2 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.2 Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2415) | Affinity Photo Beta 2.5.0 (2415) | Affinity Publisher Beta 2.5.0 (2415) Affinity Designer 1.7.3 | Affinity Photo 1.7.3 | Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 MacBook Pro 16GB, macOS Monterey 12.7.4, Magic Mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Hi @dcarvalho84, So the workaround to this issue is to open a new blank document... If you either click 'Edit Document' in the context toolbar or double-click the embedded pdf in the layers panel you will see the title bar say's 'Loading 1 document', once the document has finished loading and has displayed any missing font and colour profile assistant messages and the title bar no longer shows 'Loading 1 document', open a new blank document and the embedded pdf will now also open which means you'll end up with three open tabs, the source document, the embedded document and your blank document which you can obviously close... The not-so-good news is that you have to do this every time you need to edit the embedded pdf. dcarvalho84 1 Quote Affinity Designer 2.4.2 | Affinity Photo 2.4.2 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.2 Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2415) | Affinity Photo Beta 2.5.0 (2415) | Affinity Publisher Beta 2.5.0 (2415) Affinity Designer 1.7.3 | Affinity Photo 1.7.3 | Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 MacBook Pro 16GB, macOS Monterey 12.7.4, Magic Mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
