mirkoschieder Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Here's an interresting one: I created some text in faux-italics by tilting the letters by 13 degrees. (My machine didn't have the italic font and I was to lazy to go and do a search for just one word, I admit). Now, exporting to PDF worrks as expected. Printing said PDF works as expected, printing from Affinity Designer however produces weired results... The letters dont't get tilted, instead they rotate by 13°. The printer btw is a HP Color LaserJet CP3525 UPD PCL 6. I tried different fonts, sizes even colorspaces always with the strange outcome. The PDF export is a workaround for now, but you should look into this before alpha phase. Aside from the little hickup, it's real fun working with publisher!
Joachim_L Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Partially I can confirm. Arial Regular Shear 13° in Character Panel -> gets rotated Miriam Fixed Shear 13° in Character Panel -> gets rotated MiloOT Shear 13° in Character Panel -> printed correctly Arial Regular made Italic from the Context Toolbar -> printed correctly ------ Windows 10 | i5-8500 CPU | Intel UHD 630 Graphics | 32 GB RAM | Latest Retail and Beta versions of complete Affinity range installed
MickRose Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Same problem here on a HP Laserjet P2055d which I think is pcl. Prints okay on postscript printers. I think there is also a problem printing reflected text on a pcl printer. Windows 10 Pro, I5 3.3G PC 16G RAM
