WDP18 - new features

[Chris M]

My XWDP doesn't have the PDF option either. Looks exactly the same as LGF's screenshot.

The comparatives between Web Designer Premium and Designer Pro https://www.xara.com/eu/designer-pro/compare/ (if this is up to-date) suggest you do not have an PDF export option in Web Designer Premium.

With Pro, the Viewer Options, assuming Export is a Transitional/ Supersite provides the additional PDF checkbox. If you export as a Website, these options are not available.



I can't tell whether the WDP exclusion is intended in the new releases.

Gary, said the Website bit in the very first Response.

Methinks this is another Magix muck-up. If the "Publish document online - New since November 2020" is wrong than Magix is trading close to the wind.
If the Release Notes are wrong then Xara has a hand in it.

The last modified date of the Comparison page is 06 May 2021; this does not means it is accurate.
The Web section is common to XWDP and XDPX, yet the Import/Export section states DPF(/X) Export is explicitly disallowing them.

@Rob-Xar - I am moving this Thread to the Dear Xara Forum for Xara to clarify.

Web Designer Premium doesn't have the ability to export to PDF, so it was removed from the export tab. The Magix website is incorrect in this case. I will contact them to ensure this gets updated.

Thanks

With a lot of to-ing and fro-ing with Magix and screen captures, they finally said that the release notes for WDP18 are incorrect - and download pdf is not available!
This is quite upsetting as I've always paid for the Premium version of WD and would have expected that this function would be supported - the standard version, I understand.

However, the interaction with Support was good and that they always replied within 2-3 days at each stage.
