Michael Parle Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 If you are to expect current users of PagePlus to upgrade to Affinity Publisher I think it is essential that Publisher should be able to accurately import .ppp files. I have tried concerting .ppp files to .pdf and then opening them in Publisher but this is unsatisfactory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 10, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 10, 2018 Hi Michael Parle, Welcome to Affinity Forums Currently there's no plans to add support for PagePlus files. Please check this thread (last four pages) where was explained the reasons behind this decision.

magicdesign__ Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 out of interest, would it be possible/feasible to add a simple 'export as' feature to pageplus - to allow this to happen (rather than having to build it into Publisher)?

In theory it would be possible, but in practice it would mean diverting valuable resources away from the development of Affinity Publisher so that a new patch for PagePlus could be developed, tested and deployed. This clearly isn’t going to happen, especially given that there’s already an ‘export as’ feature of sorts (in the form of the ‘Publish as PDF’ command in PagePlus).

magicdesign__ Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I don't think so - as they have mentioned many times that the developers of page plus were not the same team as the developers of affinity. That being the case, I imagine the page plus team are either no longer there, or have a bit more time on their hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
