On the Mac I use Photoshop primarily for
1. Viewing blueprints
2. Combining microfilm images into a single blueprint.
For the first I used to be able to use Preview but I "upgraded" the operating system and Preview no longer will display large images. 64,000 x 6,000.
For the second, I have a large number of microfilm images of blueprints. A single blueprint typically spans 2–4 microfilm images. However, they appear to have used different camera settings frequently for the same blueprint.
I would like to ditch all my adobe software. I would like to know whether Affinity Photo can handle this kind of thing.
