Nov 03, 2017 The Mac version of Affinity Photo is normally only sold to retail customers through the Mac App Store, so unless you want to purchase the Windows version of an Affinity app or either (or both!) of the workbooks you don't need an Affinity Store account. Mar 27, 2019 Courtesy of Mac App Store Buy on Apple Both Adobe Photoshop and Affinity Photo are great options for photo editing, but if those two apps are outside your budget, then look to Pixelmator and Pixelmator Pro. Affinity Photo is the professional photo editing software for the Mac. The Templates will help you to create beautiful Affinity Photo documents much faster and easier. To create an awesome Affinity Photo document, just browse through categories in this app, find the template that you like, open it with Affinity Photo and edit the template.

Billing
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept major credit cards such as Visa® and MasterCard® and also PayPal® (only available in certain countries).
Why do I see a $1 charge on my bank statement?
When you place an order on the Affinity Store, we send over a request to your issuing bank for either a $0 or a $1 authorisation (different banks permit different amounts) to verify that the card is issued, and the bank will allow it to be authorised. Regardless of whether or not the authorisation is declined, we reverse our authorisation request immediately. However, even if the bank declines the authorisation, some people may still see an authorisation for $1 on their credit card statement. This is not a charge, and it will disappear from your statement; depending on the bank, in anywhere from a few minutes to a few weeks.
How do I obtain a VAT receipt?
You can create a VAT receipt for any order on your account. On your account homepage, select Order history and locate the order you wish to generate a VAT receipt for. Select View VAT receipt and enter your details, select Create VAT receipt and a PDF VAT receipt will be generated.

Macos mail app flagged. I had this problem - the 'Flagged' folder disappeared from the Mail app and no longer contained any flagged messages, even though I could see that my messages still had flags if I logged into the iCloud website and looked at them there.

Ashley Hewson, Managing Director of Serif, was at a prestigious Apple event in New York for the presentation of the award—the third time an Affinity app has been selected as the winner.
He said: “Affinity Publisher was by far our biggest project so far, introducing a world-first level of integration between creative apps, and the response to that has been unbelievable. And we’re honoured to be named App of the Year again for Affinity Publisher, following on from Affinity Photo for iPad and Mac.
We know our customers really love the Affinity apps and awards like this serve as further confirmation that we’re going in the right direction and making products that professionals around the world, who use them every day, genuinely appreciate.”
Launched before an audience of leading professionals in June, Affinity Publisher unveiled a unique new level of integration which has revolutionised how creative professionals work.
Its StudioLink technology allows owners of vector design app Affinity Designer and image editor Affinity Photo to use them right there in an Affinity Publisher layout, simply by clicking the relevant product icon.
If you can’t find the app in Launchpad, then head to the Applications folder in Finder. https://angelsyellow.tistory.com/11.
While Affinity Publisher has its own impressive selection of built-in vector and photo editing tools, StudioLink means for the first time, graphics and images in a layout can be edited using a full array of professional tools, without the need to switch to a different app, carry out edits, save and reupload the asset. The result is a massive streamlining of the creative workflow and valuable time savings.
From creating simple text-based documents to posters and flyers, or complex brochures and books combining words, images and graphics, Affinity Publisher runs smoothly even on the most content-heavy documents.
With essentials like Master Pages, facing-page spreads, grids, tables, advanced typography, text flow and full professional print output, Affinity Publisher delivers all the requirements for a modern-day layout app, tailored to exploit the power of the very latest hardware.

Affinity Publisher’s enormous flexibility means it can import and export all major raster and vector files, including layered PSD, PDF, EPS formats. And it can output print-ready documents in the latest PDF/X formats, including hyperlink support for documents shared online. Version 1.8, currently in public beta, introduces IDML import capability.

Ashley Hewson adds: “We’d really like to thank everyone involved in the success of Affinity Publisher, not just within our own team but all the customers who took part in the beta period and helped shape the app into the winning product it is now, and all the users who have put their faith in Affinity.”
