mkaneshiro Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Hi, I'm trying to understand why Photo opens my black and white scans as RAW color files. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using scans from Epson Scan 3.9.4 at grayscale/16bit and saving them as .tif files with an embedded Epson 1.8 Gamma grayscale profile. Tried opening them with both Photo Beta 1.5.2 beta 5 and official release Photo 1.5.1 thanks,Marcus MacBook Pro mid-2012 Sierra 10.12.3 Quote
Staff Lee D Posted March 14, 2017 Staff Posted March 14, 2017 Hi Marcus, Can you PM me a link to a sample file I can test with, as long as the profile is written correctly Affinity Photo should be picking that up. Quote
bmoney Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Hi. I have been having the exact same problem with 16 bit TIFF files created on my scanner. When I open them in Affinity, it opens them as Raw files under the development tab. This wouldn't be a problem except that it also changes the tones and makes them unuseable. Quote

Has there been any solution published? Quote
John Rostron Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 I have a similar issue (not so much a problem). I scan images in black-and-white and save as tiffs. Affinity Photo opens them automatically and declares them to be 8-bit RGB. Wouldn't it be nice if it could handle 1-bit images?

mkaneshiro Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 Solution: AP 1.7.0 opens these properly. Quote
