mactoni Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Hello, using Publisher 1.7.2 on a macos 10.14.6 When i want to print an .afpub File, Publisher crashes. That was not the case in Version 1.7.1 My workaround is to export in PDF and then print this file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Jon P Posted August 19, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 19, 2019 Hi, There is an issue in 1.7.2 where the program may crash when printing if the file contains an embedded document. For now if you want to print your file you can either: If you have the Affinity Store version of the product, downgrade to 1.7.1 here Export to PDF and print from there (looks like you've sussed this one!) Rasterise the embedded documents before printing Apologies for the inconvenience. If you could upload your file here it would be appreciated mkaneshiro 1 Quote Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactoni Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 Just uploaded the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekkinsman Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 @Jon P this is also reproducible by changing options in the print dialogue. It happens to me when I go Print > Layout > Pages Per Sheet: <select anything>. Crash. mkaneshiro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Jon P Posted August 20, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 20, 2019 @derekkinsman Can you upload your file to the above dropbox link? The files I've seen so far crash when going into the File > Print dialog, I want to check you aren't experiencing a different issue Quote Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronlap Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 MacOS Mojave 10.14.6. Trying to print a file with 2 embedded graphics. Changing any option for print causes the APub 1.7.2 to hang and needs to be force quit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekkinsman Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Interestingly, for three different documents I get two different errors. 1. Can no longer reproduce error I described above. 2. Works. File printed. 3. Crashes the instant I hit Print, as described in original post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stateofgary Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) I am also experiencing this... I am also getting an error trying to export to PDF, so I can't do that either.

stateofgary Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Duplicating the layer with the embedded (linked) document, rasterizing the copy, and turning off the original, embedded layer allowed me to both print and export to PDF. The embeded document is still there if I need to change it and can duplicate & rasterize again if needed without too much fuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkaneshiro Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I'm getting a crash when trying to go into Print (cmd-p). Created new doc from scratch to replicate. No embedded documents. 3 linked.

GerhardL Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Same Probleme here, Print with embedded "PDF"-Object = Crash Same Object embedded as "PNG" = OK :-) Gerhard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clanks Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I am having a similar issue. I have an 8 page document. I only want to print page 8 to proof it. I do command P, and no matter what option i take to ask it to print page 8, KABOOM--it crashes. I have tried selecting the page and using "Selection," and "Current Page," and entering "8" on pages when Enitre Document is selected. I am uploading to the Dropbox three crash files for each example. Yes, page 8 has an embedded picture. Hurry on this one. It's important.

Staff Jon P Posted August 23, 2019 Staff Share Posted August 23, 2019 Just to re-iterate, we are aware of this bug but I can't say when it will be fixed (we are aware of it effecting multiple users). If one of the above workarounds works for you I would suggest using it. Quote Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abra100pro Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Same here: Print (CMD + P) = crash Mojave 10.14.6 (18G87) APUB 1.7.2 Best, Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
