I created an assets library panel in Publisher. Publisher only allows pdf or image format exports.

My custom symbols are TIFF or PDF that work perfectly in Publisher and Pages for print, they are 'pinned' inline with text and move with the text. This is a feature of Publisher, to create your own asset library imitating InD, and an ordinary feature to pin/anchor an object picture or asset from a library. It should be known how to export this or work with the file to get it into a software able to export ebook.

Does anyone know of any software or method that will allow this to end up working - somehow -  for reflowable ebooks?

I'm not sure what you're asking about, Chickadee. 

It is true that Publisher will not export ebooks at this time. Are you asking how to create ebooks? Or are you having some problem when you have pinned one of your Assets inline and then doing a PDF export?

Or have I totally missed what you're asking about/

PDF export works perfectly when sent to kindle. Yes Affinity has no epub export.

I need some method whatever software will work to end up with my asset panel items -images not symbols from a font - working in an epub.

It must have been done by someone sometime but it's hard to catch that person visiting a forum of course.

If you're saying that you have Pinned images inline within your text, then as far as I know that will work with any kind of image (e.g., JPG, TIFF, PNG) and will successfully export to a PDF file. If that is not working for you, perhaps you could provide a sample .afpub file that does not export to PDF properly?

Or is the issue later, when you try to perform the conversion to an epub?
