Ever exported a “print ready” PDF and the print shop sends you a passive aggressive email instead of a proof?
Or your layout looks sharp on screen but turns into fuzzy mush on paper?
Yeah, this video exists so you can stop guessing what those export settings actually do.

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to safely export from Affinity Publisher/Layout for both print and digital. We’ll walk through preflight checks, bleed, color profiles, DPI, and PDF presets so your files survive real world printing and still look clean on screens. No tech jargon, just the exact buttons to press and what they mean for your project.

We’ll cover:
✅ How to use Preflight to catch missing fonts, low-res images, and overset text before it bites you
✅ Which PDF preset to use for home printers, print shops, and web viewing (and why PDF/X-1a is the cockroach of formats)
✅ Bleed, crop marks, and color space settings so your prints trim clean and colors stay predictable
✅ DPI and compression settings that keep things sharp without giving you a 500 MB monster file
✅ The difference between CMYK and RGB in exports, and when to use each
✅ When to export JPEG, PNG, TIFF, EPS, SVG, or EPUB instead of PDF

This video is for layout designers, aspiring pros, and anyone sending files to a printer or client and hoping nothing explodes. It saves you from trial and error, weird surprises at the print shop, and endless “Can you resend this in the right format?” emails. You get a simple, repeatable export workflow that makes you look like you know exactly what you’re doing.

These are the export habits used in real client projects, not just demo files. If you want your work to survive press, screens, and picky clients, understanding this workflow is not optional. It is part of doing professional design, even if nobody taught you this in school.

Next, we’ll customize Publisher even deeper with preferences, shortcuts, and hidden features that make you work twice as fast instead of fighting the software.
