Hi There I'm on the Affinity Trial Period and liking what I see.

 

My question relates to Profiles

 

In the File 'sub-list', we have Import ICC Profile

In the Document 'sub list', we have Convert ICC Profile and assign ICC Profile

 

Can anyone explain what the difference is in these three options or point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks

Hi David,

Welcome to the forums.

 

The option on the File menu can be used to easily import an ICC profile into Affinity Photo. The profile is stored within Photo and isn't available to other apps, it also adds the profile to the Convert and Assign ICC options on the Document menu and the Soft Proofing adjustment.

 

Convert allows the current profile to be converted to another and you can Assign a colour profile as you create a document or at any point during the session. The lists are made up of profiles available to both OS and the app.

I do not seem able to import an ICC profile. I click on Import ICC Profile, then navigate to where the profile is stored. Even after a complete restart of the Mac (OS 10.12.5), the profile never shows up in the list under Assign ICC Profile, Convert ICC Profile or in the export dialog. Can you help?

 

Thanks, Paul

That still does not work. I have the profile I want to use both in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles and also User/Library/ColorSync/Profiles. I have clicked Import ICC Profile..., but it still does not show up in the Assign ICC ProfileConvert ICC Profile or in the export dialog.
