petersh Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I need some help. Whenever I convert a psd file to jpg it comes out more than a stop brighter than the original. I probably changed a setting inadvertently but for the life of me I don't know how to fix it. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicaglow Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Peter, you haven't given us enough info to help you. Are you converting it on the same computer? Viewing it on the same computer? What is you conversion process? Are you simply opening as a PSD and saving as a JPG? Can you explain your process in more detail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainer_t Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 -- "Whenever I convert a psd file to jpg it comes out more than a stop brighter than the original." How do you compare the two? Are you displaying both files with PS, or are you displaying the jpg file with an image viewer or browser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightypir Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 when I do a save for web I get the reverse! (darker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petersh Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 First, thanks for the responses. Yes I am opening as a PSD and saving as a JPEG. It is on the same computer. I can immediately see the result in bridge, as well as view the difference in other viewers. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petersh Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 By the way the same thin happens when I save a tiff file as a jpeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petersh Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I ultimately found the reason for the problem. It lies in Bridge. When you set Bridge to "open jpeg in raw" the program applies correction to the file. When turned off the problem disappears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
