Hello, I just installed affinity trial for 10 days as I want to text how it works converting files to CMYK. I used to work with photoshop pro but not any more now I am looking for options. However I do work with photoshop elements.

 

So I opened the jpg in rgb in affinity previously created with elements, I export as tiff in cmyk mode. The first think I noticed when I opened the tiff file, is that the colors are still vibrant... that is not a good sign as with photoshop all the vibrant colors used to go. I tried this file beause I want to upload it to a printing place that only prints in CMYK and I need to see how it 's going to look once printed.

 

What am I doing wrong? don't get me wrong, I do like vibrant colors, but I know when printed they won't be there, so it's like it's not totally cmyk or am I missing a step or configuration?

 

Any help will be much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Urbantis,

 

Welcome to the Forum :)

 

Please could you try going to Document > Colour Format and select CMYK. Then when you export the photo the colours should come through in CMYK and not RGB.

I hope this helps :)
