Bobaffinity Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I am working on a publication with about 60 pieces of color art. Today I decided to use AP to process some additional art. I imported the art, changed the size and converted it from RGB to CMYK. When I went to save it a box popped up and said I couldn't save it as a pdf. It said I could save it as a pdf.apl file. My question is when the printer gets my package and most art is pdf, what will happen when they encounter a pdf.apl file? Is this compatible with pdf? What is the difference between a pdf and a pdf.apl? Do I need to go back to Photoshop to maintain consistency for this project? Thanks in advance for your support. Ths is truly an awesome forum.

nravenlock Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 @Bob You can create a PDF from AP using the Export option on the File menu. In the pop-up dialog, select PDF. Thanks, Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MattP Posted March 4, 2015 Staff Share Posted March 4, 2015 I've never heard of a pdf.apl file - we certainly aren't writing it directly from Affinity so it must be some system thing? As Nat says above, just go to File->Export and choose a pdf export format and it should all work as you'd expect :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
