Course Description

Welcome to my Affinity Publisher on the iPad Version 2 - The Essentials Course.


You don't need any experience to complete this course as I take you from the very beginning through to a point where you can confidently create your own media.

Affinity Publisher / Publisher on the iPad is one of the best publishing pieces of software around and a strong (and more affordable) contender for Adobe InDesign.

It allows you to create beautiful books, magazines and marketing materials through to social media posts, website mockups and a variety of other projects. This modern publishing app gives you the power to combine beautiful type, exciting images and amazing graphics to create stunning layouts ready for publication.

It has an easy-to-use interface to help you work in a fast and intuitive way.


The course includes the following:

  • Overview of what Affinity Publisher on the iPad actually does

  • Looking at the interface and where to find things

  • How to setup and create various types of documents

  • Principles of color (such as RGB and CMYK)

  • The basics of typography and how to use it within Affinity Publisher

  • Working with images and graphical shapes to make your projects "pop"!

  • Using image frames with intelligent scaling options

  • Creating text wrapping with fine padding control

  • Linking multiple text frames together across your document

  • Exciting projects to help you remember and put into practice what you've learned

With powerful features like master pages, tables, text flow and professional print output and other awesome features, Affinity Publisher has everything you need to create the perfect layout – whether it's for commercial printing, home printing, web or social media projects.

I’ve been using Publisher for a couple of months but struggling with some of the basic stuff, because I didn’t know what some of the buttons actually do. The instructors directions are very clear.

By James Allison on 5/28/2025

Excellent tutor. Good clear instructions, easy to follow. I thought I knew how to use Publisher but this course has taken me to another level. Now looking forward to a Photo V2 course.

By Harrison Rice on 3/3/2025

I thoroughly enjoyed learning from Tim Wilson from start to finish. Clear, simple and to the point, very well done. Now we need Affinity Publisher V2 intermediate/advanced and Affinity Photo V2 guides for iPad from Mr. Wilson to complete the Affinity Suite! Thank you, Tim Wilson.

I believe this is the third course I've taken under this instructor and that's no accident. I feel confident that I'm going to learn what I desire to know and that the instructor is going to give detailed instructions while keeping the course simple for anyone to learn. the Affinity Suite.

By Ali on 9/5/2024

I am completely new to design in general and this course made it easy to digest all the info provided. The instructor was very good at explaining and demonstrating everything, and especially on iPad it was helpful to see how to navigate within Publisher 2. I will be looking to take additional courses from the instructor.

The course has been really easy to follow and the content has been excellent! This is a great course for beginners. I am learning so much! The best online course I've completed thus far.

By Richard on 6/6/2023

Tim helped explain what can be very confusing/hidden context menus very clearly. The iPad version of Affinity Publisher is really powerful, and Tim helps make it feel quite a bit less intimidating; especially if you've taken his Affinity Publisher desktop courses. Thanks Tim!

I enjoy the tone of the instructors voice. He explains very clear and thorough, in a calm manner. It’s nice to have a good understanding of how things work after each lesson.

หลักสูตรน้อยเกินไปไม่คลอบคลุม

By Kathy Kidwell on 4/2/2023

The teacher has a calm and easy listening voice. Best of all it gives me confidence to learn this program from someone who knows his stuff and how to teach it.
