Am I the only one who has issue with the name?


Recommended Posts

Is "Publisher" just a temporary working name?

Does no one remember the awful Microsoft Publisher software?

Not only it is a copyrighted name, but it has very negative associations for many designers.

A couple of free suggestions: Affinity Layout, Affinity Spreads, Affinity Concept, Affinity Koncept

hehe, sorry, didn't search beforehand!

I am on board (as long as it works), no matter what you call it! (I would LOVE to see a rebranding to Affinity AdobeKiller™)

I love your Photo and Designer apps, and have been waiting for a page layout app to replace my old Adobe products. Keep up the great work!

Any thoughts on developing a decent WYSIWYG?

If you mean DTP WYSIWYG then I hope we have one now ;) . If you mean a web editor, then our head of development has said it is unlikely but..

Do you plan to have Web site design/Digital Asset Management/animation/video editing products too?
We’re not sure yet! but we are very interested in adding a DAM solution to the Affinity suite in future.
