Exporting Help

[wolfboy1024]

Hello!

Im having a bit of trouble exporting out of Affinity

My file color profile is RGBA/32 (HDR) SRGB for the import.

When I am exporting, no matter what I export to the renders are looking completely different from what I am seeing in my view port. it is looking very over exposed on export and most of my details are gone.

Preferably I would need to export this as a JPG or a PNG, but nothing I seem to do is working.

Are there any recommendations for how I can get a good export?

I'm on a Mac M1 using Affinity Photo 1.10.4

When exporting to JPEG, you are limited to 8bit RGB and PNG can be either 16bit or 8bit - this means you will be 'clipping' tones in your image during the conversion and this may cause a colour difference in the exported file from the displayed canvas in Affinity.

I'd recommend editing in 16bit within Affinity before exporting to ensure that your exported image matches the canvas in Affinity - you can convert the document using Document > Convert Format / ICC profile within AP.

I hope this helps!
