Affinity Publisher Native Imposition Facilities

[jepho]

Hi Guys. 

I cannot find any reference to the Imposition facilities which will be available natively to Affinity Publisher (AP). I would prefer not to have to use additional software along the lines of IDimposer Pro, although it has certainly addressed many of the imposition shortcomings in InDesign.

 

Can any staff member say anything about the currently included or intended imposition capabilities of AP at this juncture?

 

Thank you.

It’s clear enough in the present context, but to avoid confusion in the future might be a good idea to get used to a different abbreviation such as ‘APub’. I personally use the abbreviation ‘APh’ for Affinity Photo, but many forum members use ‘AP’.

Hi @jepho,

 

We cannot confirm or deny any features for Affinity Publisher until the beta is released. Sorry

Thanks for the timely reminder... I consider my knuckles have been very gently wrapped. :)))  

APub is very much better. It was just a brainfart and I had forgotten that Affinity Photo may also be abbreviated to AP.

Thank you GabrielM. It was not me attempting to get the lowdown on potential industrial sabotage targets... more an effort to understand what workflow choices I may have to plan for in the future. Planning is an essential part of my commitment to any particular software pathway and workflow.

Some use "AF" for Affinity Photo. For myself, I created 3 character keyboard text substitution shortcuts in the Mac's System Preferences > Keyboard > Text tab for both current apps (an exclamation point followed by either AD or AP). So when I am at my Mac, while it may look like I took the time to type the full names, I actually just type 3 characters & they automatically expand into them.

 

It is an OS feature I use for a lot of short phrases -- above I typed an exclamation mark & SP instead of "System Preferences," & there are many others I use. I even created a substitution for "teh" so when I too often type that it automatically corrects to "the."

 

I don't know if Windows has anything similar but if it does, it might be worth considering for those who post to these forums frequently.

Unfortunately, that particular abbreviation has another common meaning (and I'm not thinking of "AutoFocus")!

I am sure I do not know WTF meaning are you referring to.
