SurJones Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 So I am exporting my magazine. I've got a couple pages that don't export layers. 2 pages is just a single image layer. Another page is background image, and then 2 small rectangle images with strokes. The two small images export, background is white.... Another page is just again a single image, and just exports White.. Need to get this done like ASAP. Any help would rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted March 31, 2016 Staff Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi SurJones, Are you using artboards? Are the missing layers inside an Artboard layer or are independent layers? Without seeing the file is difficult to guess what may be happening... Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurJones Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 We get dartboards in Photo as well? No - I've got all the slices set up the way we last discussed. Everything has been fine, besides those few slice exports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted March 31, 2016 Staff Share Posted March 31, 2016 No, i assumed you were using Affinity Designer, sorry. Can you attach the file here please (or PM me a link if you prefer)? Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurJones Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 if you guys didn't cap an upload limit - sure I could send you the file over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 You can upload the file to dropbox or WeTransfer and post the link to the file here, that should negate the upload limit of the forum Quote Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurJones Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 yea I did send him a PM - just make more steps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted March 31, 2016 Staff Share Posted March 31, 2016 @Chris_K I already have the file with me. Thanks for the file SurJones. If you uncheck Allow Advanced Features in the Export options the file/pages should export correctly. I'm still not sure why this setting is affecting those pages since there's no vector elements / gradients / transparency used here. I'm passing this to the dev team.

SurJones Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yea - that worked. What is an advanced feature? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Harris Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Advanced features are parts of the PDF specification that Illustrator and some other apps don't support, but which are worth using because they improve print quality. In this case the particular feature is 1-bit transparency masks, and there is a bug in Affinity that means they got exported wrong. Switching off advanced features is a workaround that hides the bug. We'll fix the bug for the 1.5 beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
