Problem with printing Afpub-file

[esc3719]

Hi,

when using AP-2 under Windows11, I have observed the following problem.
In an afpub file there are embedded images (preferably embedded), together with text boxes. When viewing under AFPUB, all images are present.
When I print the file (different printers), two images are missing, the corresponding text boxes are present on the pages. However, when I export the file as a pdf file, the images are included.
The error remains if I replace the embedded images on the page or replace the entire page. The text frames are not linked.
Other similar files do not show this error. Since the error of this file also occurs when included in a book, it makes handling more difficult because it requires a detour via a pdf file.

Thanks in advance for any advice

Forum hint: You've posted this in Share Your Work, but for reporting problems you should use one of the Bugs forums or one of the Questions forums, as appropriate. This forum (Share your work) is really only for sharing completed or work-in-progress designs to get feedback on your work with the Affinity applications.

A moderator will probably move this for you, but it's less work overall if topics are posted in the right place initially

Off-hand I'm not sure what would cause your problem, but I'm sure more information will be needed. At a minimum, if you can share publicly, we would need screenshots showing the pages that have the problem and the Layers panel showing the images that have the problem visible.

Ideally we would like to have the .afpub file itself.

If this information cannot be shared publicly then you may have to wait for the Serif staff to get to this topic, and provide a private upload link. Often, issues can be diagnosed faster if you can share the files directly here so other forum members can assist.

Have you noticed anything consistent that can help explain the problem? You've said the files are embedded, but what kind of files are they?

If you click on the little 'arrow head' (greater-than) symbols to the left of the titles you should see the sub-forums, most of which should be selectable - see attached image where the "Frequently Asked Questions" section is 'closed' but the "Affinity Support & Questions" section is 'open' after clicking on the icon.
