gascoyneone Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 I have a book ready to go off to the printers and I cannot export to PDF. " An error occurred while exporting to :" is the message I get. I have all the photos embedded although there is a font warning about one font Avenir Book which I've replaced with Avenir medium. I've updated all software I'm on Sequoia 15.1 on a Mac Studio 2 . Any thoughts please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Where are you exporting to? Have you tried exporting to somewhere different? Have you tried saving the document as a new document, then opening the new document and then exporting that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gascoyneone Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 Thanks for picking this up Garry . I have tried both these and variations of them but the Error message comes up every time 2/3 of the way through. I have replaced the fonts that cropped up as a problem: Avenir Book replaced by Avenir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gascoyneone Posted November 6 Author Share Posted November 6 I converted all the pages in the Affinity Publisher doc to double page JPG spreads and created a new document pasting them all in. It exported fine, but it's not a satisfactory method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It exported fine, but it's not a satisfactory method. The quality from that approach will be... less than optimal! Does this only effect the one document? One thing to try would be to remove one page at a time (make a backup first in case you accidentally save!), and attempt to publish each time. That way you may be able to pin down the troublesome page. I assume you can't share the file here for others to try publishing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean trying to export to different storage devices and/or folders, have you tried exporting directly to a folder on your internal drive that is not synced to any cloud service?

gascoyneone Posted November 7 Author Share Posted November 7 Thanks DuncanL I tried exporting one at a time and found the culprit - P30 it must have been corrupted . I redid and reinstalled it and it worked. DuncanL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
