Baton Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Hi, I have a problem to import/open PDF-file into Publisher (and Designer too). Program open import dialog and after confirmation doesn't respond and finally crash! mont_easycon_de_en_fr.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim_L Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Right now Publisher / Designer choke on overly complicated PDF files. And your CAD programme created one. Take for instance page 2, where coloured areas were split into tiny images. Maybe you can use some other export setting in your Bulls Eyes software? Even in Illustrator editing such a file is no joy. If your are fine with the graphics and just want to fine tune some text, turn the PDF into a bitmap, make some retouching and add the text in Publisher. Obviously this PDF was never meant to be for editing. ------ Windows 10 | i5-8500 CPU | Intel UHD 630 Graphics | 32 GB RAM | Latest Retail and Beta versions of complete Affinity range installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim_L Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Finally: The thousands of images are to blame. As an example document I extracted page 2 of the document, moved all the images on a separate layer, deleted the images afterwards, saved the file and opened it in Publisher without problems. "All" what has to be done is now creating coloured areas again. I don't know if you want to invest so much work. ------ Windows 10 | i5-8500 CPU | Intel UHD 630 Graphics | 32 GB RAM | Latest Retail and Beta versions of complete Affinity range installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Gabe Posted May 2, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 2, 2019 Hi both, Sorry for the delayed reply. I've logged this with our developers. Regardless of how complex this is, it should not crash. Thanks, Gabe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
