Taro B Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Complex part of my work rasterize when I export it in pdf for print. It does look ok in Designer. How can I get every part of my work crystal clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted April 29, 2018 Staff Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi Taro B, Welcome to Affinity Forums Are you using any adjustments, layer effects on your any of your layers? All these will force layer rasterisation on export. A few Blend modes may also do it. Without seeing the file is difficult to guess what may be the cause. Do you mind uploading it so we can take a look? I can provide you an upload link if you wish to keep the file private. Thanks.

Taro B Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Thanks guys! I turned some blend modes off and got a part restored. Now there are only normal and passthrough, at least I think. But still got two parts of the work getting rasterized without knowing why. Maybe I turned too many things on and off prophecy_development.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro B Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Well I've found that it's ok in the other artboard, this is weird. Duplicate the exact same object from the ok-artboard to another one, then I get this "unsupported poroperties" and get rasterized. Is it something to do with artboards? Items were turned into symbols also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still want to know why the other artboards has problem. I messed the artboard too much maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now THAT worked like a charm. Thank you very much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
