Poziomka Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Hi I have problem with correct printing with transparent elements. On a page are embedded pdf logo and few embedded psd with transparency and shadow fx. Printing on PS color laser printer without "Clip Transparency" I got a rectangle (lighter/darker) around each object and no shadow effect! Sample attached - print1.png = pdf logo Then print with selected "Clip Transparency". Is better. Although still poorly you will see a rectangle around the object and no shadow effect! Sample attached - print2.png, print3.png and corresponding - screenshot.png I find that the best way is to export to pdf and print pdf, however can I print without boxes around objects and with visible shadow effect?

Staff Lee D Posted March 6, 2017 Staff Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi Poziomka, On the Print Window under Rasterization, you can enable Rasterize entire page and this should allow you to print direct from Affinity without having to export to PDF first. I only get line around one of the objects at the bottom (Left) and if this is Rasterized, it also resolves the issue. The logo for some reason has a green global colour assigned to it, not sure why, but removing that makes no difference. Also editing the document and setting the document background to transparent also has no effect, but rasterizing should. I'm going to continue to look at the file as something is causing the issue, in the meantime you can continue to export to PDF. I've tested it and everything looks as it should when exported. leeozzie and Energeiai 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbowers Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Were you able to figure out a solution to this? When printing directly from affinity designer I am getting opaque boxes around images during printing. 85x11brochure_outside_tri-fold.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eugio_rock Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I have the same problem, will there be a solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Energeiai Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I had the same problem. The diffuse transparent rectangle disappeared when I, under the Print-Rasterization dialogue box enabled "clip transparency". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
