dhob Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Affinity Photo doesn't recognize the full set of icc profiles in the standard Library/ColorSync/Profiles folder on the Mac (I'm using macOS Mojave 10.14.6). I have a set of icc profiles that are color variant profiles of existing color spaces such as AdobeRGB1998. I have attached two such icc profiles here. Affinity Photo simply doesn't recognize their existence when I go to convert or assign icc profiles. For comparison, Adobe Photoshop (which I'm using less and less, thanks to Affinity) has no problem seeing these at all. Thanks for looking into this!

Staff MEB Posted July 21, 2020 Staff Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hi dhob, Welcome to Affinity Forums Thanks for reporting this. I'm seeing the same behaviour here. I've logged the issue to be looked at. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhob Posted July 23, 2020 Author Share Posted July 23, 2020 It seems that Affinity Photo ignores icc profiles of the class "input," assuming you'd never want to do that, and is instead showing just "display" and "output" icc profiles. That would mostly make sense except in this case. It seems I can work around this from the File --> Import ICC Profile menu item. Though I can only do one at a time. I have about a hundred of these. It'd be great if one could select more than one at a time if this is the way it has to work. Thanks for looking into all this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I'm not sure that Affinity has any support for that kind of ICC profile. If you get them imported, how do you plan to use them?

sfriedberg Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 This is an aspect of color management that needs to be enhanced. Input profiles should be equal citizens with display and output profiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but that's more of a Feature Request (and I believe there have been some, at least related to allowing for camera sensor profiling), not a bug report. But, as @MEB has logged it for investigation, perhaps I'm wrong Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billtils Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 MEB responded on 21st July 2020 that this is being looked into ... any solution? I don't normally print from AP but this article made me rethink. However, none of my paper icc profles show in the soft proofing routine. They are indeed all present where they should be in ColorSync and work perfectly well when soft proofing from CaptureOne Pro.
