Staff Leigh Posted April 1, 2017 Staff Share Posted April 1, 2017 Welcome to the forums kalinoaj :) Seems to be working fine with Designer on Windows here. Are you using the Artistic or Frame Text Tool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 i am using the trial version Works in AD on the Mac here ... Seems to be working fine with Designer on Windows here. Are you using the Artistic or Frame Text Tool? Please note that there are four different products: Affinity Designer on macOS or OS X Affinity Designer on Windows Affinity Photo on macOS or OS X Affinity Photo on Windows As Leigh has indicated, you also have a choice between Artistic Text and Frame Text. It would be useful to know which tool you are using, and on which platform. Do you specifically need to use the Symbol font? Common fonts such as Arial and Times New Roman include all of the characters in the Greek alphabet.

v_kyr Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Even better use a real Greek language font instead, especially if you are a native greek language speaker.

kalinoaj Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 After posting my question, I turned on the Greek keyboard on the Mac . Then had access to all characters in all font types. This worked fine. I am using affinity designer on LATEST OSX. Leigh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
