Repeating elements - Best way to do that


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

I have a question for you. What is the best way to create repeating object and what affinity app should I use.

I nedd this for printing purposes. Now I design business card in affinity designer or photo and then I place that file in publisher and repeat on specific page format (size). The problem occurs when the source file is complex and large. Repeating it often increases the size of the final file and the app is crash. What can I do about it?

HI sorinciupitu,

When placing the files in Publisher, do you know if you are placing them as Linked or Embedded?  You can check this via Document>Resource manager.  If you set these to be Linked, it should keep the file size down in Publisher.

of course I use linked but even so the file size reaches over 5GB

Wow 5GB, i wouldn't expect it to be that large, esp for a business card.

Are you sure all images are set to Linked in the resource manager?  

Could really do with a sample file, but if it's 5GB it may take some time to upload
