import of pdf

[VirginiaL]

Hi you all.

I don't understand why when I upload a pdf, even if I uncheck the boxes about texts, all of them become awkward and replaced.

How to place a simple signature with photo or designer without becoming crazy?

 

Thank you!!

There's a major difference between opening a PDF and placing a PDF.
If you don't want to edit a PDF, don't open it. Place it.

by dragging? Done, same result. In the original of the uploaded image, different font, and space among words

 

 

File -> Place, same

Make sure the placed PDF is set to Passthrough, not "Interpret". The latter will not render inactive embedded fonts correctly.

Other than that, if you need detailed assistance, you may need to upload the offending files here.

it happens the same. It is a private document so I can't share it but once it will be done with another I can share it.

Another thing: when opening for the first time this command of course is not allowed. I have to make a new file and I see only1 page. How can I add more pages in photos?

Thank you

Alright, so possibly it's a specific permission issue with this very document.

You can't. Affinity Photo contains primarily the subset of functions that are relevant for photo editing. As the app name says…  
If you need more pages, then Publisher is the tool with the relevant focus.
Once you've added them in Publisher though, Photo will be able to handle them as well. The respective document format is fully interchangeable.
