Raponda Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Hi, I am designing a circular logo through affinity designer. I am having trouble removing the reset art board so that I can export my image just as the circle. I have been looking everywhere but I have not found a solution. I already set the background to transparent when I set up the document but it will not save without it. Essentially, I am wondering how to remove the background and save my design as a circle instead of also saving the white space background on the art board. Any help would be amazing I have been looking for so long and I am very frustrated! Thanks! Quote
walt.farrell Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 What format (file type) are you exporting to? Not all formats support transparency. Also, what release of Designer, and on what OS?

Raponda Posted February 19, 2018 Author Posted February 19, 2018 @walt.farrell I'm trying to export it as a PDF but any format that will be non-editable will work, just has to be a circle with just the logo. Affinity Designer 1.6.0, Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.3 Quote
walt.farrell Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 If I create a new document in Designer and specify that it should create an artboard and allow a transparent document, I get a transparent artboard, not one with a white background. Are you sure you specified Transparent Background on the New Document dialog?
