Hey there, 

I'm working on a type found project for signage and I've tested Affinity Photo to skew and treat my photo archives then I'm making selection of each letter, but when I copy the selection from Affinity Photo (version 1.10.1) in FontLab 7.2.0 (7649), nothing happens.
I've tested in Photoshop CS6 or even the latest CC21 and it works as expected.
I'm going to post this in the Serif forum as well.

Anybody tried on their side?

thx.

Tried it. No luck. Neither in Glyphs.

Mmh, thanks for checking Alex.
That's what I've thought, it's on Affinity side then.

I'll keep you posted when Affinity's answer arrives.

Maybe you need to rasterize the layer before.
(Just a try, I am a superficial user of Affinity Photo until now).

Hmm. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work with true pixel layers either.

Check the thread I've started on Serif Affinity Photo, it's not resolved but it has catched attention.
