imacken Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Exporting this file to pdf 'for Print' is fine, but it is corrupted if I use X-1a. Any ideas? I'm using windows version 1.6.5.123. Watermill vegan menu.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulEC Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I think it's to do with it being an image layer. Rasterize it and it works OK.

imacken Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 Thanks for that. Rasterizing the 'Watermill logo green' object works, but I don't really understand why. I've done this kind of thing many times over the years, and not come across this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulEC Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I think it's to do with the way Affinity differentiates between image and pixel layers, and that the logo layer is semi-transparent.

imacken Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 Maybe, but there are several image layers in that file and they don't seem to cause a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 fwiw, as is, the file seems to export fine with the current beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imacken Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 Thanks Mike. That's interesting, as I have been looking into this, and there was something wrong with the Photo export of the png of the logo. It seems that a white background was present even though I selected no background. Anyway, I copied the green stuff from the logo in to a new document, exported as png without background again, and now if I import that into the menu doc, everything works OK! So, it's very interesting that the beta prints it ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
