R C-R Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Just now, dutchshader said: Still the file gets 20mb larger, so it looks like the convert opened files to working space does not matter. That option apparently does not apply to batch jobs so yes, it doesn't matter if it is set or not, but it does matter for files opened normally. FWIW, I changed from the sRGB IEC 61966-2.1 (ProPhoto) color profile to the smaller Adobe RGB (1998) one in my preferences, & had no effect on the size of the afphoto file created using a batch job either -- it still was a 20.6 MB file on disk using the original (?) Display P3 profile, whether the convert option was enabled or disabled. Make of that what you will.

What I mean is it does not open them into the UI. 1 hour ago, owenr said: The "convert opened files to working space" setting is honoured by a batch job, which is logical since the source file(s) need to be opened to be processed. That is not happening on my Mac. Enabling or disabling "convert opened files to working space" has no effect on the batch jobs I have tried it with. EDIT: Just to be sure about this, I quit Affinity Photo & restarted it. Now it does honor that preference, so I was wrong about that, too. 1 hour ago, owenr said: sRGB is not the same as ProPhoto. Yes, you are right about that. I pasted the RGB IEC 61966-2.1 profile name from the ColorSync Utility when I meant to paste the ROMM RGB: ISO 220R28-2:2013 one. Sorry for any confusion that might have caused. EDIT 2: Changing the profile with "convert opened files to working space" enabled also changes the size of the file in a batch job (or for a Save As), but only by a few tenths of MB. I find it hard to believe this should result in the almost 10X jump in file size for the yellow.jpg test file from 2.1 to between 20.4 & 20.6 MB with that option enabled.
