#Affinity photo workbook forums pdf how to#
But if Affinity offered a free PDF download of how to use the features, with an index, I would change my mind and they would get a sale.
I'm not asking for lots of 'tutorials' or 'projects', just a brief description of how to use each function.Īnd having managed to get the 'defringe' working, and seen that the result isn't any better than what I can do 'manually' in PE7, the learning curve looks like more bother than it's worth.

I'm not a luddite afraid to learn or try new things, but for me a reference manual with an index is a vital tool in the learning process. There are users who, having purchased the software, would very much life a decent reference manual. I found what appears to be an Affinity users' forum website: the absence of exactly what I would want has been a subject of some discussion.

The policy of updates is one of the software's attractions, and since any serious user would be expected to use this facility, a responsible software supplier should realise that they only need to maintain one version of their software's reference material. Note that I don't ask for a 'hard copy' printed manual because of cost and built-in obsolescence, but a pdf file that could be maintained by Affinity as they release updates. It's as if somebody set out to make the interface as complex as possible. I also tried the distortion correction facility (see easy to use in PE7) and eventually gave up. There are probably many features I will never need (as in PE7), but an easy reference about how to use the ones I would want, would be ideal. My choice is Affinity but you may well disagree.Ĭlick to expand.And having managed to get the 'defringe' working, and seen that the result isn't any better than what I can do 'manually' in PE7, the learning curve looks like more bother than it's worth. Elements 2019, Affinity, or Skylum Luminar.
I suggest that you commit to one programme. Affinity encourages a different workflow. Why do you expect Affinity to be a clone of PE7, or even CS6.

An html manual is created on your pc when you download Affinity photo. I agree that a pdf manual with index and sidebar chapter headings would be good. If you really must open your developed files in Adobe then export from the photo persona as 16 bit tiff or PSD. Layers are very powerful in both Photoshop and Affinity photo. Affinity photo is meant to be used non destructively that implies using layers. Here you can do much editing without layers if you really insist. Most people save their ACR raw develops as PSD don't they? Once you leave the Develop persona you find yourself in the photo persona.

I should add that I very much appreciate Affinity's free trial because I won't be buying it, and have avoided spending £48.99.Ĭlick to expand.Why would you want to save in anything but afphoto if you were to use Affinity for editing. Has anybody else tried this software and been disappointed?
The fact that Affinity don't offer any PDF user manual (with an index) is another problem for me: the online 'tutorials' I've watched never appear to answer the specific query I have. So I will be then unable to open it in PE7. Anything I want to do with the RAW file appears to force me to work with layers, and when I eventually got the 'defringe' to work (after a very tedious online 'tutorial'), the result looked exactly like the result I can get using PE7.Īlso, if I open a DNG format RAW file, I cannot save it in the same format but only in Affinity's format. So, after reading AP's review I downloaded the 10 day trail version and have found it very frustrating. But I only need this on a few images when I prepare them for printing. I have found a way to do this 'manually' with the 'replace colour' process, but sometimes it needs more than one attempt to do the job. I've been using Photohop Elements 7 for nearly 10 years, and the only thing I need that it won't do easily is remove colour fringes on high contrast edge details.
