HealingDoodle Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Just wondering if you'll be creating any type of Acrobat alternative. I need to convert from Word to PDF for self-publishing. Thanks Quote
Staff Callum Posted August 28, 2018 Staff Posted August 28, 2018 Hi Healing Doodle, We are making Affinity Publisher which is a desktop publishing app however we have no plans for an Acrobat alternative. Thanks C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.
Fixx Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 What features you would need? Word itself can export to PDF (and using mac can also print to PDF). Of course if you need book formatting features, Publisher will do that (how well, remains to be seen). I would recommend that you check also publishing to epub-format – Jutoh is a solid tool for converting Word to epub. Quote
Sam Neil Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 Nitro PDF is the best one out there. We use it all the time. Quote
DegasBrush Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 I use Acrobat for professional Pre-press.. being able to check for correct separations and correct overprints, knockouts and trapping.. etc.. that's the functionality I am looking for.. Sam Neil: " Nitro PDF is the best one out there. We use it all the time. " does that have prepress capability??? Cheers.. Quote
z3thon Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 I'm in the same boat as @DegasBrush I need to be able to print white on top and/or beneath my images. On top for tattoos and bottom for prints that go on colored paper. Checking the color separation is important in this process. Spot colors are also fairly important but Affinity Designer does kind of take care of a lot of this.. DegasBrush and Patrick Connor 2 Quote
