Michael Andreas Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 When I installed it, a 10-day trial was offered and APublisher opened up on that basis. Did a bit more hunting and found the key further down on the page I was given for having preordered and that worked as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an email titled " Your Affinity order confirmation - xxxxxxxx" within 24 hours after I preordered it. In that email is a link to my personal download page which has the download link and the key. If you didn't get the email, there must have been a failure during the order process either on Affinity's end or your end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen Death Knight Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Finally it's officially out! Guess I can talk freely now about the other two Personas, because man, this is the kind of software symbiosis I have been wishing for for the last decade in regards to Photoshop and Illustrator. Thanks Serif for making my silly dream a reality! Patrick Connor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franky Drappier Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Hello Ash and team, Perhaps "bugs" and negative feedback are more useful to you all, but as some of your product users are genuinely quite thrilled with your products, you might consider adding a topic to the forum: "positive notes and congrats". Congratulations on a great presentation yesterday. The performance of the "personas" in publisher is just incredible. As an enthusiastic beta tester I had pre-ordered Publisher and proceeded to install the final version yesterday evening. I just had to try out these "personas" that had been a mystery during the Beta months. What a revelation! The "persona" function is amazing and instantly my favorite feature in Publisher. It works flawlessly. This is going to be such a timesaver! Thank you for all your efforts and keep up the good work. Kind regards, Franky Patrick Connor and Ash 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Publisher is for the graphic design and layout for publishing to print. Each are offering a different application. Bit like illustrator and InDesign. To all, Not too sure how many days are left for the discount on AFFINITY-PUBLISHER, perhaps someone could clarify ? Now that AFFINITY-PUBLISHER is out, I wondering if there were any PPv9 users (like me) who've made the jump & can share any thoughts between the two, i.e. PROS' & CONS'.

IN the earlier beta stages it was not as functional as PP. Now, the latest release beta, which is, I think, similar to the release candidate, is clearly superior to PP9. It still does NOT open PP files, I believe, so you would need to start a fresh file, but I can now do everything I could with PP 9, and more, as efficiently, if not more so. Len G Oregon No footnotes and endnotes support yet. No Mesh warp except through Photo Persona, No Instant 3D, No Preflight Check or proofreader or grammar checker, No story editor, No Book Plus equivalent, No material style layer effects, and definitely no e-publishing. But I agree that Affinity Publisher is a very good product indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To all, Thanks to all & Affinity Team <Affinity@Serif.com> for confirming AP discount deadline is end of working day this Wednesday 3rd July 2019. However, I was thinking I'd be inundated with forumers on more AP positives to make the purchase....h'mmm............ theres still time I guess, where are all tthose SERIF PPv9 users..
