mykee Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Dear developers, I have a book cover project from Affinity Photo 1.6.5 version. I use Designer for PDF export, because in Photo has not bleed settings (more information here). I exported same project and same settings in Designer 1.6.5 and latest 1.7 beta (v258). I get different colors, and effects. In 1.6.5: I cannot export Source Sans Pro (Type1 font), I exported fonts as curves. Here is two PDF's whats I made with two Designer, compare these: 1.6.5 version: https://1drv.ms/b/s!Ar9GB-v89284ga5RgKrxD67Hi8AdTw 1.7 b258 version: https://1drv.ms/b/s!Ar9GB-v89284ga5UIgtVpjdQmbiieg
Staff Gabe Posted April 3, 2019 Staff Posted April 3, 2019 Hi @mykee, Sorry for the delayed reply. Can you please attach the afdesign file and the font in question? Thanks, Gabe.
mykee Posted April 3, 2019 Author Posted April 3, 2019 Can I send my link in private? Because file is big, and include commercial parts. Thanks!
Staff Gabe Posted April 3, 2019 Staff Posted April 3, 2019 Sure: https://www.dropbox.com/request/mcfzQa3j25RMi9evANUH mykee 1
mykee Posted April 3, 2019 Author Posted April 3, 2019 Thank you, I uploaded my project. Open with Designer, no with Photo!
Staff Gabe Posted April 3, 2019 Staff Posted April 3, 2019 Thanks. So, this is what's going on: When you have FX on, the text will export as curves. This is expected, as we try to keep the appearance as it is. Colour change: In 1.7 we have re-written the adjustments, so the values you set in 1.6 do not match with what we currently have in 1.7. This should change before the public release, and 1.6 projects should look identical in 1.7. mykee 1
mykee Posted April 3, 2019 Author Posted April 3, 2019 Great thanks, and I exported texts as curves now, but font under 1.7 version is correct (I think this is a Type 1 fix in beta version). Colour fix would be good for more compatible between versions, and reprint will same.
