Hello! Just as it says, I can’t export images that I have processed in RAW Therapee in a meaningful way. It recognises my browser, but not Photoshop CS6 or Gimp. I tried saving as a tiff, but all I got was the base image without modifications.
Any ideas what to do?
What software do you use? This forum supports many.
Oh sorry. It’s RAW Therapee
It’s working fine for me (I’m using Windows). What I did:
Not sure why your exported tiff has issue. What kind of tiff (16 or 32 bit) did you exported, and through what way? I exported 32-bit tiff before and Affinity Photo have trouble rendering them correctly, but the picture looks greyed out, nothing like the original picture.
Thanks! I can now export into Photoshop CS6! However, for some reason, the image looks like hot garbage once I do. It’s nothing like it was in RAW Therapee. Is this photoshop or something else? Should I be trying to jack RAW Therapee into Photoshop as a replacement RAW editor maybe? I think it’s the default one that’s doing it.
Otherwise, is CS6 maybe just too old now? Is there anything else I can use that isn’t as awful as Gimp or as expensive as the new subscription model for Photoshop?
Maybe a color profile issue. Try using sRGB? Go to Color tab - Color Management - Output Profile and switch to sRGB, that may solve your problem.
The working profile is not the output (export) profile, at least not in most software. Are you sure about that advice? (I’m not an active RawTherapee user, but that’s not how I remember it.)
Thanks for point out, I was in a bit of a hurry when writing my reply, and didn’t do any double-checking. It should be Output Profile, not Working Profile. I’ve edited my reply. My bad.
It is the colours, but I can’t find the output. Only the monitor colours. Do I have to enable some kind of advanced options thing?
Thank you. I set them bot to sRGB but it still looks like this. Photoshop is on the right. RAW is on the left.
Can you get a raw file from Play Raw section (like this one: Rendering Greens) and post your results, so everybody is able use the same raw file and assess the situation?
The tree file looks the same in both, but it didn’t activate camera RAW editor in Photoshop the way my files do. Even though I edited it in the same way. Here is my fairly randomised edit:
And here is Photoshop.
Any idea what’s going on?
I haven’t been able to follow this thread because I am no fan of Adobe but there are several formats of TIFF and there’s no guarantee that photoshop knows them all.
My suggestion would be to export from RawTherapee as sRGB JPEG. If that doesn’t work (!!), download the mighty GIMP which allows a RawTherapee plugin.
It’s normal, because RawTherapee exported image is not Raw image any more.
The PS image looks normal to me in this case, and I’m not sure about camera raw stuff since I don’t use PS. If the export color is still an issue, then another raw is needed to demonstrate it, since the current one do look OK.
It shouldn’t be, but it still is when I try to export my Nikon RAW images.
Any ideas where I can get one that you guys have access too? Preferably a Nikon one?
You can go to the play raw section of the forum, there are a lot of Nikon raw files shared there, like this one: Dramatic mountains. Though this sample picture is less rich in color, not sure what it’ll do in reflecting the color difference.
