Thanks for being so clear and concise! I really appreciate videos explained with simplicity without unnecessary comments that just add length! This was fast and easy to remember, not to say a great reference! ❤

Thank you for this video I really appreciate seeing the updates rather than reading about them.

I literally caught myself saying „NICE!“, „YES“, and „SWEET!“ out loud. Great stuff 💪

Thank you for this concise and pleasant update. Keep posting new features.

I am moving from InDesign and very pleased with the new UI. The data merge is much easier to use in Publisher. I do a lot of long interactive e documents. The one challenge is not having an interactive next page or previous page link option. It isn't an issue for a 10 to 20 page document, but when I am working on a 200 pager and need to insert or delete pages it is cumbersome to manual go in and change them.

Love the auto flow images feature, might consider upgrading just for that.

The new Quick Grid feature is something I've been waiting for for a long time and it's a step in the right direction. Thank you for listening to the users coming from Indesign. HOWEVER, the option for spaces is far too imprecise. Basically, you have to use a sense of proportion here. But I need exact distances between images, blocks of text etc. For example 3 mm. Affinity urgently needs to improve here.

Does Publisher V2 have support for East Asian typography features like vertical text, right to left, ruby text, and tate-chuu-yoko (blocks of horizontal type within vertical type), and right-to-left page ordering for exported PDFs? That feature gap was my main gripe with 1.x, and I hoped that a major version would make Publisher usable for more than just western-style books.

[Schwingi]

I got them all... 😃

Thanks for the update vids!

HELP PLEASE! Appreciate your vids and took your Publisher course. Thanks. Here's my problem: In Publisher 1.X, when I use the up and down arrows while the cursor is in the text box inset dialog box, the increment moves up by .1" which is the control I want. In Publisher 2.0, the increment is in whole inches only! Obviously, this won't work well with narrow columnar text :-). We are a newspaper and use a lot of text boxes and set the inset with the arrow keys all the time. How do we get the increment to increase .1" at a time like in 1.X version of Publisher? Thank you!
