SudoCat Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I've got a bunch of files exported from Affinity Publisher that have all come out at the wrong DPI (all exported images are 96 DPI despite the documents being 72 DPI). As I can't seem to find a solution to that, and I've already exported a bunch of assets, I'm attempting to fix these images via a macro and a batch process. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like that's going to be viable either. The only way I've found to change the document DPI is through the resize document method, but this is unsuitable for use in a macro. When you run the "resize document" as a macro, it attempts to replicate the exact settings of the recording. This means instead of adjusting the DPI, and resizing the document in relation to that DPI change, it sets the DPI and scales the document to match the original documents size was at the time of recording. Is this intended behaviour? Could there be another way of approaching this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @SudoCat. Macros: Yes, that is unfortunately the way that Resize Document works when recorded in a macro. Publisher: When you Export to PDF, on the More... dialog, there's an option to use the document dpi or a user-specified dpi. Perhaps you're specifying 96dpi for the images? If so, choose the other option Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
