For image files, of the supported formats only the TIFF format supports both LAB and CMYK. JPEG supports CMYK. PNG doesn't support either. Those are not Affinity Photo limitations, but file format limitations.

MxHeppa Posted October 16, 2019 Author Share Posted October 16, 2019 generally i suprised JPEG CMYK. but becouse is lossy format is unsuitable expect some times to final results like web graphics but these should be in rgb with srgb profile.

mac_heibu Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Basically, it is correct, that jpg is lossy. But, I bet, you won‘t see the difference, if you are using a low or very low compression rate. Especially when you are talking about CMYK. This implies, these images are used for printing purposes (there is no other use of CMYK images). Just be aware, that you need typically 16 x 16 image pixels to display one(!) screening dot in print (150 lpi, 60 l/cm screening). So a moderate jpg compression normally won‘t be noticed on screen and definitely not at all in print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixx Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Obviously PSD supports both LAB and CMYK. PNG of course supports alpha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
