You can set it as a preference, but embedding is still there and possible. My number one complaint? That it’s not possible to disable embedding of documents instead of linking them. The always on wysiwyg display is a bit of a game changer. There are some really dramatic benefits to Publisher over indesign. Getting table of contents working correctly requires something close to a PhD but apart from that, it’s all been pretty straightforward. I’m now at the point where I genuinely prefer publisher. We started during the public beta and after a few weeks moved wholesale from InDesign. We’ve been using Publisher for over a year now.
I did try to install and run CS6 in Parallels in Mojave - but Illustrator and InDesign always crash on load - Parallels support could not figure it out. Now, once I get a good grasp and feel confident in the Serif Suite, I will upgrade and say goodbye to Adobe. SO I have been stuck with Mojave due to that 32 bit restriction, since I need to use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I've been using the Adobe Suite forever now, and on my personal systems, am still on CS6 - I don't want to pay monthly for that. If anyone has a good reference or Youtube video, please recommend it :) Now that I can import, I need to learn the differences between InDesign and Publisher. They worked great, but many of the font sizes had to be reduced to get them to fit properly.ĭoes anyone know of an easy automation to converting CS6 or newer INDD files to IDML without having to open each file and individually save each? Any if you do, can you give some details :) I just converted several of my recent layouts to the IDML format, and opened them in Publisher. Importing my InDesign work has been the number one reason I still have not used Publisher. Existing users can download the updates free. Affinity Publisher, Photo, and Designer cost $49.99 on Mac, while Affinity Photo and Designer for iPad cost $19.99. Some of the new features include: Smart object support when importing PSD files a new stock imagery search panel in Designer customizable keyboard shortcuts in both apps and Nik plug-in compatibility for Affinity Photo.Īffinity v1.8 apps are available to purchase from the Serif website for a one-off payment with no subscription. In addition, Publisher now offers the ability to save documents as templates for re-use in future projects, as well as the ability to combine multiple Affinity Publisher documents together into a single file, with smart merge of master pages, text styles, table of contents and indexes.Įlsewhere, there's added support for Excel file import to bring in spreadsheet tables and data, PDF export that's up to five times faster than before, and several other improvements and fixes.Īffinity Photo and Designer are also getting v1.8 updates today.
Publisher now also supports full pre-flight checking that can alert users to possible document errors, including poor image resolutions, bleed hazards, text overflow, spelling errors, missing images or fonts, and more. The IDML import capability should appeal to businesses and other professional users who want to access older document catalogs, and should make it easier for those who want to make the switch to the Affinity suite. Version 1.8 of the Mac app brings IDML compatibility, allowing users to import InDesign files for the first time. The biggest news relates to Publisher, with its first big update since launching in the summer.
Serif today announced across-the-board updates for its popular suite of Affinity creative apps, including Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer, and the Apple award-winning Affinity Publisher for Mac.
