PM and LAB mode images
« on: June 05, 2007, 11:52:30 AM »
Hi,

Trialling Photo Mechanic at the moment - seems very good, but I've got one issue: I use LAB mode in Photoshop a lot, and it seems that if I save an image in LAB mode as a PSD it won't display as a thumbnail in Photo Mechanic, or open in the viewer - I just get a black square in both cases. RGB images are fine, just as they ought to be.

Seached here & Google but not found anything, so it may be just me doing something wrong or something odd about my system. Any advice welcome.

Thanks,

H

LAB (or Lab) is not a color mode Photo Mechanic supports at this time.
