Frustratingly hard work.

I have considerable experience with various publishing software but recently bought this for personal home use. I am finding it hit and miss as to whether I can place pictures, and having spent time setting the font speciations, I start typing and it just seems to do want it wants. And where is the undo?

Ugh!

You guys are taking foreeeever to release the new iPad update! I’m melting here guys!!

Affinity Publisher

Having previously been a professional graphic artist for 16 years and in need of a professional suite of graphic design and publishing Apps I discovered Affinity Suite. All three Apps are excellent, packed with features, great support and community, a wealth of official andthird party filters, textures etc.

The user interface is excellent too and very easy to transition to from the likes of Ad**e (which is my background). The one off payment licence option is incredible value and allows you to download all the versions you want (Mac, iPad, PC etc).

I use mostly Designer for vector illustrating and Publisher for (no surprise here) publishing illustrated books. Photo is also excellent but I’ve yet to properly delve into it. I’m still learning the Apps using the excellent Workbooks as reference when I get stuck.

I can’t recommend this suite enough.

Affinity is Perfect Intergration

The tool set is unbelievably extensive. The integration of publisher, design and photo is the best feature. Being able to move in and out of these modes without leaving the file is so productive. Looking forward to the upcoming Canva version for iPad.
