Axhill Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 In the windows of my Mac where I see the .afpub and .afdesign files, some of those files (most of them) have an icon with reduced image and a thumbnail (preview). Why in other AF files do I only see an AF icon? Might that have to do with the version in which I originally created the document or is it something else?

R C-R Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Make surei Preferences > General "Save thumbnails with documents" is enabled, then open one of the files that does not have a thumbnail, do something that requires resaving it (like making an edit & then undoing it), & save it again. Does the file now show a thumbnail?

Axhill Posted December 25, 2023 Author Share Posted December 25, 2023 They turned out to be files created with a previous version AF. In my current version, settings already had thumbnails checked. Just resaving didn't help, I had to rename the file, but then both the icon thumbnail and the preview were visible.
