Re: Transformation Color Negative issue with 16 bit tif

Thanks Jonathan. I tried again and this time was a bit more brutal with the Color Negative Transform gamma settings and got good output. I also used one Raw file of the colour negative and used Canon DPP to convert to an 8 Bit Tif and 16 bit Tif. I then used the PWP8 Color Negative Transform on each...

Transformation Color Negative issue with 16 bit tif

Hi, I found that if I use the Transformation Color Negative, I get a very blue output if the input file is a 16 bit tiff (made from a Raw photo of a colour negative.) If I use an 8 bit tiff file for input, I get nicely colour balanced output. (PWP 64 v 7.0.20 also behaves this way.) Is this issue a ...

Re: Reducing haze or mist using PWP

I would like to thank everyone for their help. At last I had some free time and I have used the method provided by Jennifer and got pleasing results of the Grand Canyon with reduced haze. This was by using Color->Extract Channels to get R, H, and S followed by Gray->Combine Channels. (I did find tha...

Print Album difficult to see and select right profile

Hi Kiril I notice in PWP 7.0.19 when I use Print Album that it is not possible to see the full name of each available profile file. If I print an individual photo (not using Print Album) then I am presented with almost the full profile name. Is it possible to make the Print Album profile box show th...

Removing profile from JPEG before sending to printer

Hi Kiril Can you please clarify what I need to do in PWP 7.0.17a to avoid ending up with a JPEG image file containing a profile? I am asking because I want to use a photo print supplier - Photobox - who say this on their web site: "Note: All our printers are calibrated to be sRGB printers - the...

Re: New Picture Window Update

Hi Kiril I know you mention there is now an "Auto" feature in the Color Balance widget but I cannot see it in PWP. I was wanting to use the Automatic Color Balance feature you mentioned to auto color balance a number of photos in a PWP workflow which each have different casts. - Where can ...

Re: Canon's "Digital Lens Optimizer" software for RAW images

Hi John I was curious how you found the RAW conversion with Canon DPP and DLO compared to that in PWP? I am using Canon 40D with several Canon lens some of which are supported by DLO in DPP software. I tend to convert RAW files in DPP, then use PWP for final edits. (Like Warp transformation - that D...

Problem selecting individual files for workflow

Hi Kiril I would be grateful please for help on this. When I use Ctrl - Left Mouse Click to select individual photos to drag to the Workflow dialog box, I am finding that after selecting about 6-8 individual photos, the screen blinks, and the selection is lost, before I can drag to the Workflow dial...

Suspected CMYK file would not open in PWP7

Hi Kiril I was sent a jpeg file which I was unable to open in PWP7. It then sits in the Browser bar saying "Error2. It did open with MS Paint. Am I right in thinking that this is a deliberate limitation of PWP? Once opened in Paint and saved as TIFF, I can open in PWP with profile conversion sh...
