Print document changed to web stays print (including units)

Recommended Posts

I have a previously saved print document which I now want to change to web, and change the units to pixels.

Regardless of how many times I open document settings and change to web, the next time I open it, it says print again.

Similarly, even though units does say pixels, when I go to a previously created object, the stroke width says points.

Even if I type 1px to change the stroke, it still converts it to points.

This is version 2.3.0.

Web and Print are just categories of presets, they're not important after a document has been created. It's the measurement unit that's important and you can change that in Document Setup (in Photo it's in Resize Document).

Which application and file format are you using?

Also don't forget to change, if necessary, the Colour Space from CMYK to RGB.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
