Affinity Publisher 2 v2.5.7

Affinity Publisher 2 assembles long documents from master pages, spreads and linked text frames, with a preview mode that reports overflow before content is moved. Typography controls cover optical alignment, hyphenation dictionaries and OpenType feature selection for individual character runs.

Documents link to Designer and Photo source files, so vector and raster assets update in place when the source changes. Tables, indexes, generated contents pages and IDML import handle structured publication work, and preflight checks catch missing fonts and low-resolution images before export. The package installs offline as a pre-activated build.
