corysea Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Dear Friends, I have been using Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer and I like them very much. I also like Affinity Publisher but it will not be particularly useful to me (and I will not be purchasing it) unless/until it can import microsoft word documents. Is this planned and, if so, when? Many thanks, Cory Sea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhikkhu Pesala Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Only just above your thread there is a six page sticky thread discussion of docx import.

There's an orderly way to develop Affinity Publisher and we are building from the ground up. All in good time.

Joachim_L Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Welcome to the Affinity forums @Wolfs! 2 minutes ago, Wolfs said: It is very pity, Word files (docx) couldn`t IMPORT in Publisher (Vers. 1.9) I am confused. Why do you emphasize IMPORT? You can place a .docx which would be my equivalent for import. True is, you cannot open a .docx with APu.
