Matthias Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 As the title says: You can open another Publisher document while Publisher writes a PDF of another document. But this causes Publisher to freeze. Better to not being able to open a new document then. Would be great however, if Publisher let me work on my document while writing a PDF of another document.

Old Bruce Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Does it freeze or just slow to a crawl? But I agree, it would be expected to be able to open a different document and start working on that while exporting.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthias Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 I force-quit Publisher several times after approx. one minute with a motionless progress bar when the same PDF-writing progress took a few seconds otherwise. To me it looked locked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Have you saved the file as a copy and tried exporting from that? Quite often that changes things back to the few seconds for export or whatever. I currently have not experienced this behaviour, I need to get some heavy files made. <Old Man Rant> May be simply the age difference but one minute of nothing is ... well ... nothing in my experience. I will park my cursor at the progress bar's location then I go have a coffee/tea and come back, if it is still in the same place then there is a freeze. A minute is nothing, we are spoiled with SSDs verses floppy disks (Oh my god, what am I talking about... There isn't enough money in the world to make me start using floppies again). </Old Man Rant> Matthias and markw 2 Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.
