Derry Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi, new to Affinity Publisher so forgive me if this is a dumb question, but how do I set up defaults for new documents ? eg, the page size, margins, measurement units, etc? ( I'm getting tired of having to re-set these each time I choose open - new ). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Good question, @Derry. First, in my experience Publisher will automatically remember the last settings you used for creating new documents. So if it's not doing that for you, I'm surprised. What OS are you running? However, you can also create document presets. When the new document dialog is active, make the settings you want. Then click the hamburger icon and choose Create Preset: For more information: https://affinity.help/publisher/en-US.lproj/pages/GetStarted/newDocument.html duderonomy 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 Hi Walt, Thanks for this. Publisher was not remembering the last settings ( I'm on Windows 10 ), however, I discovered EDIT menu - DEFAULTS - SYNCHRONISE FROM SELECTION seems to have done the trick. I'll explore the 'Create Preset' route too. Appreciate your help. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
