Dayfold Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hi, We're new to Affinity Photo, so far everything looks very good, but we have the need to edit and create 1bit images. Normally they are .tif files but if we load them into Affinity Photo at the moment it appears to convert the image to an 8bit format with no options available to save it back out as 1bit. Is this possible as it's something we do a lot of in Photoshop currently. Thanks. Paul Bravery 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bravery Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi Dayfold, Maybe this should be entered as a feature request. Currently spot or Pantone® colours aren't supported either, but are in the feature roadmap. Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted July 23, 2015 Staff Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi Dayfold, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) I'm moving this to the Feature Requests section. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayfold Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Thanks for moving this to the requests area. I hadn't used Photo enough to notice yet the lack of spot & pantone colours. So maybe the ability to add Duotone, Tritone, Quadtone editing could be added to the 1, 8 & 16bit color modes. Also the ability to have 1 or more spot channels within an image and with the ability remaining in the image when saved out as tif or PDF would also mean that for print professionals Affinity Photo would be a more viable alternative to Photoshop. Hopefully one day InDesign may even support importing Affinity Photo native format images! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Whitehead Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 New to Affinity But I seriously need to have black-and-white Bitmap images ideally at 1400 pixels per inch. Unfortunately this does not appear to be available in Affinity Photo - it would be a useful and good thing to have as part of the functionality. May I recommend this for future development? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
