mistertimman Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I wonder if it is possible to design an A4 Folded to A5 Greeting Card in Affinity Designer? I know this is possible in Draw Plus and Page Plus, but I notice in creating a New Document there is no preset for this activity. I image there is a way of creating your own preset, but that is beyond my limited experience. Any ideas anyone please? Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickd Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 What paper size are you looking for? If you open an A4 paper size and drag a guide from the ruler to the middle you have both front and back or inside to work on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 See, I created two documents for you, assuming that you are using a home printer to create your greeting cards … hope that was what you were looking for … :) (Make sure to set the guides and the margins visible. Something like that should work.)

Alfred Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 What paper size are you looking for? If you open an A4 paper size and drag a guide from the ruler to the middle you have both front and back or inside to work on. Dragging a guide would leave you with the problem of positioning it accurately. If you go to the View menu and choose 'Guides Manager...' you can simply click on one of the 'Add new guide' icons in the Guides dialog to add a guide at the halfway point.

A_B_C Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 But your method is also very smart … I mean, clickwise … ;) :) Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
