Font and Import to Affinity Publisher


Recommended Posts

Greetings, I have the Palatino font on my computer and see it when I'm using Affinity Publisher.

I'm trying to drag and drop and am also trying to "open" a WORD doc or docx - looks like that' not possible.

I see that I can import or drag and drop a PDF - however it does not let me select that when it shows the replace the fonts prompts.

What do you suggest? Much thanks.

Hi Dvorah :)

Affinity Publisher uses the fonts installed through your Operating System automatically, can you access this font from the dropdown in Affinity Publisher?

Docx files can't be imported but they can be placed within a text frame. Check out the following video for more!

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!

posting comment so I can follow - don't see how to do that once I've posted.

If you're using a wide-enough browser window, look at the top of your topic, on the right, for the Follow button. On a narrow screen, such as a phone, the button is on the bottom of the topic.
