Affinity Publisher v2 / Windows 11

Using CTRL P to file (screenshot ) then I get an XPS file which cannot be opened with the windows xps reader.

This is most likely the „save to file“ configuration on Windows, totally unrelated to Affinity apps.

I assume you have chosen the Microsoft XPS format as target. You need to change this in the print settings of Windows.

What file format to you want to create? You can directly export to e.g. PDF instead of using print-to-file

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

Unless you can show me where to find this setting I very much doubt that there is such a setting??

It’s up to you to provide screenshots of the print UI on your PC. My crystal ball is unfortunately unable to show your PC.

Windows XPS is a legacy print driver starting on Vista.

Just ask someone to help you find these settings.  When I read that part I highlighted in your quote, you subtly called @NotMyFault a liar. Not cool to do.

Two roads leading to the same place. ;)
