Title: Can I select color space when exporting to PS
Post by: Richard Marcellus on February 13, 2008, 11:29:21 pm

I am trying out Aperture (v2) for the first time, and one setting I can't find is the color space choice when sending an image to an external editor (PSCS3 in my case).

I end up with Adobe RGB1998, and I would like to switch this to ProPhotoRGB. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Richard

I suspect you have to go through the File > Export > Versions route, rather than the more direct Edit in Photoshop option.

I was right - people are moaning about it in this thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1394738&tstart=30).

I just posted there because there's some major BS in some of the posts.

Why doesn't Apple tell us the processing color space? Probably because many of us who've tested this believe that, at least in 1.X, its Adobe RGB (1998) which doesn't cut it.
