Affinity Photo is probably the photo editor that comes closest to being able to battle Photoshop in terms of functionality. I have been using Affinity Photo for over 1½ years now, and to cut things short I don’t look back with longing to the Photoshop days. That is not to say that Affinity Photo is better than Photoshop. However, it lacks Photoshop’s support for 3D printing, animation, video editing and a video timeline and scripting. The latest version, 1.8.3.641, was released in February 2020. Affinity Photo includes an integrated raw editor that seamlessly opens raw files from most current cameras (including Fujifilm’s X-Trans models) in the regular workspace.

Today sees our huge 1.8 across-the-board updates to our Affinity apps.
Central to our announcement is layout app Affinity Publisher—already Apple’s reigning Mac App of the Year—which gets IDML compatibility for importing InDesign files, in its first big update since launching last summer.
This update is aimed squarely at businesses and other professional users who need to be able to access a stock of older documents and will now find it much simpler to make the move to the Affinity suite.
Ashley Hewson, Managing Director of Serif, says: “More and more companies and organisations are choosing to switch from Creative Cloud to the Affinity suite since we launched Affinity Publisher.
“The need for an easy way to import existing InDesign documents remained a sticking point, particularly for those who have a large existing catalogue of files, so we are thrilled to offer IDML import to make the transition easier than ever.”
Other new features in Affinity Publisher include:
- Full preflight checking will throw up live instances of possible errors in a document, such as poor image resolution, bleed hazards, overflowing text, spelling errors, missing images or font resources, and more.
- Ability to save documents as templates to re-use time and again on future projects.
- Combine multiple Affinity Publisher documents together into a single file, with smart merge of master pages, text styles, table of contents and indexes.
- Excel (xlsx) file import to instantly bring in tables of data from spreadsheets.
- Many other improvements and fixes, including PDF export being up to five times faster than before.
