Affinity Publisher has been launched and at the live event Serif has revealed a nifty new feature: all users will be able to switch between Designer, Photo and Publisher to directly access the entire catalog of all the tools in each app.
If you want to know how it will work, come forward to meet the wit behind of this announcement that will surely bring tail; It would not be uncommon for Adobe to follow suit in a new update.
Serif has launched its Affinity Publisher app with a special offer of 20% so you can make her for € 43,99 when it will be for € 54,99 when the offer passes.
The important and curious thing about the launch is the revelation that if you own any of the other Serif apps, such as Affinity Photo or Affinity Designer (who received a big update recently), you can unlock Publisher's Studio Link technology.
When you click between any of the three different icons that you will see at the top From the interface, you can access the full list of vector and image editing tools from Affinity Publisher.
That is, for the first time in a suite of design programs, a designer you can switch between editing and publishing tasks from the same program. It is as if you could go from Adobe Photoshop to Illustrator with a single click and thus go from one task to another according to your needs and with all the speed it means.
What makes us wonder if this strategy can be supposed to attract a lot of designers that they see the Affinity suite of programs as the answer they have been waiting for a long time; Especially because for a single payment you have three more efficient alternatives compared to Adobe's.
We will see if Adobe will be able to respond quickly to a series of programs that possibly mark a before and after for fluency and constant workflow between Affinity Publisher, Photo and Designer.
