Export/Import Affinity Publisher Document Presets

[Chris_06]

Hello!

Is there a way to export/import document presets? To clarify exactly which presets I am referring to, below is a pic.

I know that APub stores such things under the user profile, but cannot find a location where these particular custom presets are stored.

Thanks,

Chris

No, there's no Import/Export mechanism for them.

You would have to copy the document presets file.

Thanks @walt.farrell.

Are the locations the same for the latest Beta?

They will be in a similar location for the beta, but on Windows the path would run through a folder named "2.0 (beta)" rather than "2.0".

And note that copying the files from 2.0 (beta) to 2.0 might not work, though copying the other direction probably would.

That does not appear to be on my installation. The only folder is "2.0".

Since there is not a straight forward solution, I just recreated the doc presets in my beta install for now.

Thanks again @walt.farrell!

Are you using MSIX or EXE? They will be in different locations, as mentioned in the FAQ article.
