bigjohndf Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hello Everyone. I have down loaded from the Permajet print paper manufacturer web site a whole bunch of ICC profiles for printing. Problem: All of the downloaded profiles have the suffix .icm - but Affinity Photo searches for profiles with a .icc suffix. So. Are the icm profiles compatible with Affinity and how do I change the search to include icm profiles? All help and advice gratefully received. Thank you.

Staff Lee D Posted January 7, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 7, 2019 Hi bigjohndf Have you installed them into the default location with the OS? Usually right clicking and selecting Install, should resolve the issue. Once installed they can then be used by apps installed in the OS.

R C-R Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 FWIW, icc & icm are just different extensions used for the same type of file. See for example this web page.

bigjohndf Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Thanks all for replying. Lee - I installed them into a private directory and searched in there. I will try and install into the official OS directory - but I am not an expert on OS matters. Give me end-user software and I can run with it - but the OS side remains a bit of a minefield for me. I will let you know how I get on. Best wishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
