johs Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hi Affinity folks. First thanks for a two good tools, they keep getting better and better. We receive a lot of artwork from our clients as .pdf's, and very often there are used non standard fonts. We need the artwork for TVC's so all we really need to do to it is to export the .pdf's ( sometimes layers by layer ) as .png or .exr so we can use it in the TVC's. Usually we have such short deadlines so there is no time for trying to get the correct fonts, and trying to make the client export to something we can use directly is even more impossible. We are using PS for that at the moment because when PS opens a .pdf with missing fonts, the document can still look correct, but the font layer will be "rasterized" and non editable. I don't know how PS does that but would it be possible to get the same functionality added in Affinity Photo and Designer?

Dave Harris Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hi, Johs. Doing that would involve interpreting the PDF's embedded fonts. It is something we hope to do eventually, but not any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
