Does XnView support CMYK color? I've tried opening CMYK images and the colors display wrong.

Yes, but XnView doesn't use the ICC profile.

CMYK / Color profiles

Post by pfwebadmin »

Hi,

First post, so I'll start with a huge thanks for XNView. I've used it and loved it for years.

I have a bunch of images that were creating in CMYK. When I preview them in XNVIEW, they appear fine when in the folder/thumbnail view, but then when I open one the colors become muddled.

I'm wondering if it's somehow related to the ICC profiles thing you mentioned, but I don't really know much about that stuff. I'm able to open them in Photoshop and manually change them to RGB, but I figured I'd post here on the off chance there's something I'm missing to do in XNView.

Any thoughts?

:)Ben
