swmcl-affinity Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Hi, What is the largest filesize for a photo in Affinity please ? I am a large format photographer. Common film sizes are 4x5 inches, 5x7 inches and 8x10 inches. When scanned on a common consumer flatbed scanner like Epson v700, v750, v800 or v850 these photos generate comparably very large filesizes. eg. an 8x10 photo scanned at 4800dpi and 16 bits/channel is ... ( ( (8x4800) x (10x4800) ) x 48 ) / 8 ) bytes which is a little over 11Gb per image. I am fairly sure I can't get a refund on Affinity if it cannot handle these large filesizes. Thanks, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted October 31, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 31, 2018 Hi @swmcl-affinity, Welcome to the forums. 8 x 10 @ 4800dpi would be 48000px on the long edge. Our maximum size is 256000px on the long edge. So you will be fine Thanks, Gabe. AiDon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firstdefence Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Shouldn't you also consider which file format the OP would Export to; aren't there different limitations with different file types?

swmcl-affinity Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 I have an instant crash on trying to load a 4.2Gb tiff file that does open on GIMP 2.10.8 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine. I can load a 1.8Gb tiff file on said machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
