Steveporter Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Help. PSD files that I have exported from Affinity Designer or Affinity Photo cannot be used in Quark Xpress. I just get the message "Bad file format" when trying to bring them in to Quark. Am I doing something wrong. Surely if this is a bug someone else would have noticed it?

Steveporter Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Yes, PDF works but PSD does not. Is this a well-known problem then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted October 19, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 19, 2018 Hi Steveporter We've seen this issue before in Procreate (See below thread) and I imagine they are related, I'll update our developer report to include Quark Xpress. Could you please confirm your PSD export settings? Unfortunately there's no workaround for opening PSD files into other 3rd party apps currently, so you may need to use PDF files, my apologies for any inconveniences caused. Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!

Steveporter Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 HI The problem exists in any PSD export setting. The PSD will come into InDesign but not into Quark Xpress. Best wishes Steve Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
