    I’m about to try it out! Excited about the iPad version, I don’t like working on my laptop. I’ll be releasing a series of tutorials on Affinity Designer, in particular for pattern design. I’m thinking how to utilize Publisher to maybe create eBooks. Exciting stuff! :)

    Been waiting for this app to release ever since I got my iPad Pro a year ago. Having a fully featured publishing app that I can fit in my sling bag and take with me wherever I go is extremely convenient as a graphic design student. I can see myself using this for personal projects way more than InDesign thanks to studio link. I hate having to switch apps to edit assets in InDesign. Studio link is a feature that just makes sense to me.

    Many thanks for an excellent introduction to Publisher on the iPad. I’m in the process of moving to Publisher on the Mac and am greatly encouraged to see how usable and comprehensive even the iPad version is.

    Publisher 2 can work on iPad Pro 4th generation?

  • @12thDecember

    Hi Tim. @10:21, my Publisher on iPad does not have the shortcut tool. It shows an X (delete) above a trashcan. Searching for "shortcut" on the Help menu tells me about the Command Controller, but that icon doesn't exist on my screen. I pressed the "?" to reveal the purpose of each icon, and none of them are for the Command Controller. Not available in Preferences either. Version 2.0, if that makes any difference.
    Edit to add: I just updated to Version 2.0.4 and it's not there, either.

      Hi - not sure why that's happening, but maybe someone on the Affinity Forum will have an answer. Here's a link directly to it. forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/43-affinity-on-ipad-questions/ Hope that helps.

    Thanks for this demonstration. I have two questions: 1.) Can I open idml files with the iOS app? 2.) How can I get access to/install additional colour profiles?

    • @RedrocketstudioUk
      @RedrocketstudioUk  Рік тому

      Hi - I haven't been able to find anywhere to install ICC profiles directly. However, Affinity does support opencolorIO which is a colour management system. The best thing to do is to look in the help in Publisher and find Using opencolorIO. This will show you how to configure it in Publisher.
      Regarding the idml question, yes you can. Just use Import document within the main Open Document area. Don't forget to embed your images into the idml otherwise you'll potentially have to relink them.
      Hope that helps!
      Best wishes - Tim

      It sounds like you mean justification. On the alignment tools you have left, centre, right and the icon with horizontal lines all the same length is justified (full width justification). These are in the type panel.

    How different is the UI between the version used in this course and the iPad v2 software? Will it be confusing to follow along and find the correct tool? Will you be releasing an update to the course specific to the V2 software? I only have access to my iPad Pro at this time.

    • @RedrocketstudioUk
      @RedrocketstudioUk  2 роки тому +1

      Hi John. There isn’t a Publisher on the iPad course. That is coming 😊 Our current course for Publisher is for desktop but it would be a bit confusing to try and follow that for iPad because although things are similar, many functions are in different places. You’re best waiting a few weeks for the full Publisher iPad course. 😊

      They won’t. Affinity is a small team with a massive project. There just simply isn’t the market for it. I’m a pic user but when it comes to tablets, android just doesn’t cut it. iPad is levels above in terms of performance, usability and stability.

      @Alexandre Vaysse Thanks. It looks like I have to get an iPad Pro since I got all V2 of Affinity's products. I just have to stick with the PC version for now. I was hoping that they can make it available for my Samsung S8 ultra.

      @@XeunMasterhub yeah, since there are so many different hardware specs, so flavors, and screen ratios of android it can be quite difficult to develop for if you are not a major company. Not to mention there are only a few exceptional android tablets out there (the s8 ultra being one of them) among many many duds since Apple took over the market. There are only so many iPads out there to optimize for and they all have the same screen ratio and similar processors. But I agree, Affinity on the S8 Ultra would be awesome.
