Alexandre_Noite Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I Want to create a card game, and I'm seeing tutorials about Data Merge and stuff... But I have a problem, I found some tutorials about other software but I prefer to use Affinity Publisher. I didn't found the same feature on affinity publisher, with is inserting images/symbols in between texts and changing their color using data merge. I want to do exactly what this video says, but in Affinity Publisher, is that possible? Thanks for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted September 6, 2023 Staff Share Posted September 6, 2023 @Alexandre_Noite Welcome to the forums. You have the option of creating custom text styles within Publisher using whichever fonts are installed/available within the OS. However that part of the workflow uses GREP styles which isn't something Publisher has, it's been requested so may be a feature added in the future.

anto Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 You can do what you want without using Grep. Look at video 2023-09-06 15-19-39.mp4 thomaso and Alexandre_Noite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help @anto but what I really wanted is to include Icons between texts. My game have a variety of texts, and I want to do something like: "This 🍃 attack causes 😖" "If you use a 💧 move, add 3💓 to your life points" Etc. And those texts and Icons may vary, and even have more complex effect that occupy 3 lines 4 lines of text... Do you understand? (English is not my first language) I will send one example, I made the "Guts" effect manually, I made this card before learning about data merge.

It is also possible. You must enter all the data in the table correctly. Look at video 2023-09-06 16-52-04.mp4 Alexandre_Noite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
