Bryce Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I'm trying to place this PDF into an ad I'm creating and every time it crashes. I can save it as an EPS from Acrobat and then I can open it. Any ideas why? AntwerphardwarelogoINVERTED.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmrecs01 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 @Bryce I clicked on your attached file and it immediately opened in my pdf editor, PDF-Xchange, to show this: A completely blank document! I assume that is not what you intended to produce and/or attach?

kaffeeundsalz Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I can reproduce this here on my Mac. The PDF doesn't just crash Publisher, but also Photo and Designer. This does however only happen on placing it inside an existing document, not on opening the file in one of the Affinity applications. Copying the vector objects from there and pasting them into another document works just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Select all from Edit, also it is 12 years old so maybe it is just the ink has faded.

Bryce Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 That is why it had named "inverted" in the selection. I tried placing, opening and both crashed Publisher. Opening didn't crash Designer, but it didn't open it either. It just kind of hung. I would click in the app and it wouldd just beep so I had to kill it. It is 12 years old logo. The way I got it to open was save it as an EPS but still have no idea why it would crash the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted July 1, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 1, 2019 I've had Publisher open the PDF, but most of the time it does crash, as does Designer and Photo. I've passed the file over to the developers to investigate further with a crash report from my system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
