Hi. 

I've got problems exporting a design. 
I tried *.pdf and *.dxf. Output should be vector-format. 

But whatever I try... I can't get it to look like within affinity. 
Half of the text is missing, colours are different... 

The original file is attached. What are the best settings to export it as a vector-based PDF? 

Thanks!

Hi @Roelli and welcome to the forums.

I have exported your file with the export setting ‘PDF Digital-High Quality’. Since I don't have the fonts you used, the text naturally looks different than in your screenshot. But, both Krita and Inkscape display the file correctly.

Same here

If you could upload the generated PDF file, we can see if that is the problem or your "reader" app

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Thanks!

After it seems that the file export seems to work ok, I changed the way to import the file from "curves" to "Text" in corel draw.. and that works perfectly now. 

Thanks!
