Recommended Posts

Hi there everyone,

I'm struggling with importing .afstyles files (containing text styles), I only can import .afpub, .afdesign and .afphoto

When I try to import .afstyles through the text styles -> Import, I don't find my file

Hi, I believe .afstyles is for object styles, not text styles.

You can import text styles from an existing afpub file with the Text Styles panel's menu.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi there Mike,

I believe the original author here:

Those are bitmap based styles for the Affinity APub/ADe/APh Styles panel, which then can be applied to fill artistic text and other shape/vector objects etc. You would import those into the Styles panel and apply them from there on above said objects.

☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan
☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

Oh, I see, I didn't know about the Styles menu, I thought Styles = Text styles... Thank you all for your help :)

I was confused about that the first day I used Publisher, too. I really wish Styles could be renamed to Object Styles to avoid confusion.
