Faux italics print wrong


Recommended Posts

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!

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
