There's so much negativity surrounding the MS Store, primarily surrounding the lack of quality touch-centric "apps", that we forget that there are a lot of very cool full scale "applications" on the MS Store that are perfect for a laptop or 2 in 1 form factor.īTW, would love it if you in depth reviewed some of the open source options that we're seeing pop up on the MS Store. Thank you Sean for highlighting the really cool software we CAN download from the MS Store. Adobe has a monopoly on the publishing industry and uses a file format that isn't open, so the lack of support for these formats is a factor. IDML file support will help, if it arrives, because these files are often used by companies to work across different versions of Adobe software, but not supporting INDD files will hurt Affinity Publisher. You can import a PDF into Affinity Publisher, and Affinity Publisher supports quite a few file formats, but things like text-frame linking aren't going to transfer when copied over that way. Not being able to use these files will make Affinity Publisher a non-starter for some businesses and users. Professionals in the publishing industry often have to use INDD files because the client they're working with requires them or a company has built their entire set of templates using InDesign. It also doesn't support InDesign Markup Language (IDML) files, though Serif states support for IDML will come at some point. That's because Affinity Publisher doesn't support (InDesign Document) INDD files. Despite all of the features and the excellent StudioLink integration, many professionals will never use Affinity Publisher and never could.
