Free Download specifications. DOWNLOAD Affinity Photo 1.8.5.703 / 1.9.0.780 Beta for Windows. This enables Disqus, Inc. To process some of your data. Disqus privacy policy. After thousands of hours of development time, Affinity Publisher is now available in beta, so you can grab this early version and give it a try. And that could be a worthwhile exercise if you're looking for something different in terms of a desktop publishing app, or perhaps an alternative to InDesign, the heavyweight offering from Adobe.

If you own the apps already, make sure you download the update today for free, otherwise head over to our homepage to learn more about our professional creative software.

IDML import

Import InDesign IDML files, including all text styles, master pages, guides, pinned objects and more, directly into Affinity Publisher for an even more seamless experience.

Import PSD smart objects

Any smart objects included in PSD files can now be imported as embedded documents, letting you easily edit layers within any smart object – even on iPad!

Template support

You can now save documents as template files (.aftemplate) to re-use time and time again. Templates can be shared across all apps, and if you use cloud storage (Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Box, etc.), you can easily access your templates on multiple devices too.

Live preflight checking

Customise the all new Preflight panel to receive live warnings for possible errors in your document, including poor image resolution, bleed hazards, overflowing text, spelling errors, missing images or font resources, and more.

Massive expand stroke improvements

Get incredibly accurate results with far fewer nodes than before.

Big plugin support improvements

Experience the power of a range of plugins in Affinity Photo, including support for Nik Collection 2.5 by DxO.

Document merge

Swap master pages quickly and easily in Affinity Publisher. Migrate edited content from any page to a new master page layout in a single click without losing any of your work in the process.

Collect resources

Organise all image resources into a single folder location and share with others in your network. Great for simply consolidating images linked from various locations.

New Stock panel

Quickly access royalty free images in Affinity Designer through the brand-new Stock panel.

Customisable keyboard shortcuts for iPad

If you use a keyboard attachment for iPad, you can now create your own shortcuts in Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo.

Better metadata handling

New support in Affinity Photo for user-editable fields in image metadata, including the IPTC standard for copyright and other information. Plus, save and import metadata files (XMP), batch whole folders of images and tag with appropriate ownership info, and more.

New document dialog

It's now simpler than ever to find, create and manage document presets on all of our desktop apps with customised saveable presets and thumbnail previews.

XLSX import

Boolean operation improvements

With huge improvements to Boolean operations in Affinity Designer, you can now add, subtract and combine shapes to create custom designs better than ever before.

New Anchors panel

Text column dividing lines

Effortlessly add lines to separate columns in text frame settings in Affinity Publisher.

Apple keyboard shortcuts for text editing

Mac users can now use Apple default keyboard shortcuts for text editing and entry for an even more streamlined workflow.

macOS only

The standout choice for professionals

With a huge toolset specifically engineered for creative and photography professionals, whether you are editing and retouching images, or creating full-blown multi-layered compositions, it has all the power and performance you will ever need.

Professional corrections & adjustments

Correct and enhance images with Levels, Curves, Black and White, White Balance, HSL, Shadows and Highlights, plus over a dozen other non-destructive adjustments which preview instantly and can be edited at any time. Affinity Photo also provides advanced lens corrections and best-in-class noise reduction so you have full control to really bring out the best in any image.

Complete retouching tools

Whether you want to make quick corrections, or spend time on a detailed retouch, Affinity Photo has you covered. Alongside the usual dodge, burn, clone, patch, blemish, and red eye tools you'll also find an almost magical inpainting brush, frequency separation capability, and a full set of liquefy features built-in.

Dedicated RAW workspace

Develop camera RAW files in a dedicated workspace with all the precise adjustments and corrections you need in an unbounded linear color space.

Focus Merge

Expertly merge multiple images taken at different focal distances for greater depth of field. Affinity Photo takes care of the alignment and completes a detailed analysis to determine the best areas of each image to use.

Recordable Macros

Macros enable you to record an unlimited number of actions which you can save and replay whenever you like. You can even play macros as part of a batch process, making previously laborious tasks possible in a few clicks.

What's New:

Brushes

• Photo 1.8 introduces a new 'sub-brush' mechanism, developed in conjunction with Paolo Limoncelli (DAUB® Brushes). This exciting feature allows any brush to have a list of other brushes attached which will draw at the same time. Each sub-brush has a fully separate and customisable set of dynamics. You can control when the sub-brushes are drawn and how they blend with the main brush.
• Symmetry (up to 32-way) is now supported - including on-canvas controls and optional mirroring. We have more symmetry features on the way - so stay tuned during the beta process.
• Wet edges and accumulation are now available on colour brushes and brushes with HSL variance.
• Brushes with multiple nozzle textures have always chosen the nozzle at random. In 1.7, the nozzle choice has a dynamic controller and ramp for greater control.
• All brush tools now support left and right arrow keys for rotation - a common feature request

RAW

• The RAW processing engine in Photo has been rewritten - producing better results and improved performance.
• RAW files now load much more quickly.
• Re-implemented support for XTrans sensors.
• The denoise algorithm has been rewritten (to produce better results).
• Hot pixel removal is now automatically performed by the Serif Labs engine.
• Profiled lens correction are more stable, apply more quickly, and can be toggled in the Develop UI.
• The histogram in the Develop persona is now presented in the output colour space - as opposed to always being linear.

Filters

• New 'Procedural Texture' filter with advanced presets support.
• New 'Voronoi' filter.
• Denoise, Clarity and Shadows / Highlights filters have been rewritten (using technology from the Develop Persona).
• More filters are now available as Live Filters - including the new Procedural Texture filter.
• Live filters have been rewritten to improve performance - especially when multiple filters are used in a document.
• Improved Polar to Rectangular and Rectangular to Polar filters.

Adjustments

• The HSL adjustment layer has been rewritten. It now supports custom hue ranges, a new algorithm, new UI and picker controls.
• The Levels adjustment layer now supports output levels - a common feature request.
• The White Balance adjustment layer has been rewritten.
• The Selective Colour adjustment layer has been rewritten.
• PSD import / export of adjustments has been improved.
• The Vibrance adjustment layer has been rewritten.
• The Recolour adjustment layer has gained a lightness slider.

Tools

• The Crop tool has been rewritten - it now supports resolution changes, absolute pixel size and has a much improved preset mechanism.
• The Sponge Brush tool now gives more correct / pleasant results.
• A general tools overhaul has been performed - providing editing of grids, guides, page origin, across multiple tools (not just in the Move tool)

General

• 'Alternate futures' for document history have been added. Traditionally, if you roll back the undo history then do something else all your changes after that point are lost. Photo will now display a small branch icon in the history tab when you do this. Pressing that button will cycle between all the different 'futures' after that history entry - meaning you will never lose work you have done.
• HEIF images can now be loaded directly into Photo. If they contain a depth map, this will also be loaded as a second layer. Because depth maps are typically lower resolution than the main image, optional 'smart' upsampling will be performed.
• A large number of new cameras are supported for RAW development (we will provide a list of the new supported cameras as soon as possible!).
• The batch process dialog now fully supports expressions for height and width - available constants are 'w', 'h' and 'dpi'.
• Photo now supports custom document presets - a popular feature request.
• A new blend mode - Linear Burn - has been added.
• New 'Move inside / outside' commands have been added - useful for quick operations on clipping masks etc.
• The Hard Mix blend mode has been improved.
• New provider options have been added to the stock panel - support for Unsplash and Pexels. Both of these providers offer full-resolution stock imagery which is free to use.
• Metadata is now dynamically synchronised with your document - so if you resize then export, the values will be correct.
• Numerous text improvements have been made - including new features.
• Significant PDF import / export improvements and fixes.
• Added support for per-monitor ICC profiles (previously we only used the primary monitor's ICC profile) in the document view (controls still use the primary monitor's ICC profile, which will hopefully be fixed in the future).
