Staff MEB Posted November 4, 2017 Staff Share Posted November 4, 2017 Hi francoIstoujours, Welcome to Affinity Forums The Help defaults to the language set in your (Mac) System Preferences. There's a way to access the English Help through Safari pointing it directly to the correct file inside the App contents/resources (i will post instructions in a minute) however we now also have the Help online in English. Here's the links for the online versions: Affinity Photo Online Help Affinity Designer Online Help Here's the link to the local versions (just copy/paste to the browser's url field): file:///Applications/Affinity%20Designer.app/Contents/Resources/AffinityDesigner.help/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/index.html file:///Applications/Affinity%20Photo.app/Contents/Resources/AffinityPhoto.help/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/index.html Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francoIstoujours Posted November 4, 2017 Author Share Posted November 4, 2017 thank you for this reply If I use English as language on my Macbook , I think that I will have no trouble . But what I would like is to keep French as language on my Mac and to use Infinity photo in English ( including the help ) the links you gave me for the on line help lead to the French version again . I understand that the help function is not embedded in the Affinity Photo software . Ok fine , but is there a link to get the English version ? Sorry for the trouble and many thanks again for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted November 4, 2017 Staff Share Posted November 4, 2017 You can change the language on the bottom left of the Help file in the online version. There's no need for specific language links. Alfred 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
