I think you can export in CMYK but David @Mr Perceptive will likely have the answer

I've always used RGB jpegs while laying out in Affinity then exported in CMYK.

I've always played it safe, converted images to CMYK in photoshop, then used in Affinity

I'm sure what Ed Sutton says is right though, I'd rather have teh security for an extra 10 mins of computer time.

OTOH I've always exported in sRGB and built the zine in word, then saved as a .pdf using the photo quality option for Mixam.

Thats fine for mono images, but I'm not sure how it would handle colour reproduction accurately.

Thanks Guys. At least I think I settled on the images. Might be on time for once.
 
Had to invoke the backup plan, my original zine (well actually the first of a trilogy of zines!!!), has too many un-culled images in an edited state, and I I don't have enough hours in the day with my work and family commitments in the next 3 weeks.

Fortunately I keep an banker zine project in the background, this one had the images already to go, so have manged to assemble the first pass zine. Looking at the images on screen though, this one is going to live or die on its paper choice, so some test prints at home of page spreads will have to be done before the zine is sent off for printing.
