Trxr Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Hi - I’m a print photographer, primarily, and have just discovered Affinity Photo for the iPad Pro. I’m considering my workflow process and would like to move away from editing on the desktop as the Mac pencil is just so amazing and easy to work with. Does anyone have experience editing and then printing strictly off of Affinity Photo tablet? Curious of the quality (are the prints true to color/expectation?) and ease of sizing, etc. Any thoughts or stories of success / failures would be extremely appreciated. Thanks, Trxr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff stokerg Posted April 16, 2018 Staff Share Posted April 16, 2018 Hi Trxr, We hook into the IOS print side of things, so the print settings directly within the app are limited to the options offered by IOS and it's support for your printer. Personally, i export out of Affinity and then use the iPad App from my printer manufacturer to do the printing as this give me more options. Hopefully others who also print from their iPad will post how it fits into their workflow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trxr Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 Thanks stokerg. I appreciate the response. Anyone else have thoughts on the work process of IOS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlainP Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Same here, iOS print is too limited within the app. I export to jpg (or whatever format) and then use the Canon App to print it as it offers much more options. stokerg 1 Quote -- Window 11 - 32 gb - Intel I7 - 8700 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 -- iPad Pro 2020 - 12,9 - 256 gb - Apple Pencil 2 -- iPad 9th gen 256 gb - Apple Pencil 1 -- Macbook Air 15" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 You can get access to addition print setting options by using 3rd part apps such as Printer Pro or using the print manufacturers iOS app. In the first example below is Epson iOS print app which gives access to paper type/size, paper trays, etc (not Normally available with iOS print. Second example is Printer Pro app. Works with any iOS printer and offers better layout options and print to PDF option. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).
