Tony77 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hi I have a problem with Affinity Photo .... I tried to create a gigapixel format of 12 TIFF images of 16 mpx each.Joining them together comes out a file of 133 mpx and 890 mb .... when I save it in Affinity photo to modify it it reaches 3 gbyte and the program crashes and I have to wait several seconds for it to work again.Obviously I tried to merge 12 Jpegs and the file is much smaller and workable but it has only 8 bits .... I used TIFF to be able to work in 16 bits.I am aware that the starting file in TIFF (Jpeg is much smaller) is big but how could I do in this case? .... what kind of workflow do you use in these situations?

Staff Lee D Posted September 22, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 22, 2020 Can you expand on your workflow and the adjustments you make in Affinity before saving the file? Is Save History with Document enabled on the File menu, this can increase the overall filesize as can any snapshots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I export the panorama in Tiff 16 bit and then I carry out the processing in affinity .... the problem is that from a file of 800 mb of a panorama of 130 mpxl or similar then I becomes 2 gb.
