NO layers with pdf X3 export


DaDe

Recommended Posts

Hello, I read through several topics but it seems that there is still no solution in exporting a pdf file with layers so that it is then correctly displayed in the pdf reader and usable for print-shops ? 

 

The Artboard tool doesn`t solve the problem as it creats only a multiple page pdf BUT STILL no multiple layer pdf?

 

Is there a solution coming up? at this stage Affinity designer is useless for creating wide expected printing files ... 

 

Thank you

PDF/X-1a & PDF/X-3 (both revisions for each flavor) cannot contain layers. PDF/X-4 and simple Acrobat compatibility versions 1.5 and above can contain layers. And unless something has broken, AD can create layers in a PDF as per the spec.

 

I don't know what is meant by creating "wide expected printing files" but I may not need to know...
