Typesetting Text Messages in Affinity

Learn how to set up styles for typesetting fanfiction that contains text messages in Affinity. I'm showing Affinity Publisher 2 here, but the approach is very similar in Affinity 3. Then you can watch a couple different methods for applying the styles to save time. Want to skip the set up? You can download the template instead which comes with the styles already included and set up. You can find these templates in our Google Drive, linked below. You will need to install the required fonts for them to work as intended. These text message templates are available on the "Typeset Template A4- .6 margins" and "Typeset Template Letter - .6" files. https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... The fics shown here are both available to read on AO3.
