AND HEY I've learn't some NEW TECH things, proving you can teach 'old dogs new tricks' 😁😁

This is screen shots [had to go on google to find out how to do it🙄] of the painting I wanted to split into TWO, I have managed to do this in Affinity Photo when I saved the file through export with the Tiff box ticked it still shows as an 'Item Type' Afiinity Photo File' on my folder screen when you hover over the file. Though as my comment to Walts post says it does show as a Tif until you hover over the file?. If this is how it must be then thats okay and I'll carry on in my ignorance😁 Just as long as I can save as a Tiff, as this is better for printing my art onto cards and for my daughter to sublimate onto her products.

Hi Walt Thanks for info I had to go onto Google to find HOW TO do your instruction [as said no tech knowledge] did as you said and YES now the 'tiff' is shown in the extension. Though when I hover over the file it still shows as 'Item Type Inffinity Photo File'

Hi, Not only am I NEW to this forum, I'm NEW to Affinity Photo and I'm in my dotage [ thats very old - so be kind to me] so not very tech minded [any help should be simple so I can understand]🤔 and to finish with I'm not into photo's just want to edit my watercolour art paintings. After finishing my painting I scan with an Epson Perfection v600. I can edit most of my painting with the Silverfast programme; ie: colours/sharpness etc but need to use AP for removing backgrounds and the new fill layer option. PLUS I needed to cut and paste part of my painting into a new document [I had two small animal study's on one piece of paper so needed to split these into TWO separate paintings] this I achieved following video instructions. In Silverfast I set the output to 48-24bit with resolution at 600dpi. it scans as a tiff into my files. In AP I OPEN the file I want to edit. Use the relevant tools to remove the background. Then go to export using the Tiff / uncompressed/lanzos3 non separable/RGB16-bit But when I click export it saves as an AP photo file? I thought it should save as a Tiff as it was a Tiff when I opened it into AP. What/where am I going wrong. Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance 😁
