Mac: Menu – FastRawViewer – Preferences, or " Command+,".
The corresponding menu elements/actions (XMP rating, XMP label, rotate) are inaccessible for TIFF/PNG files.Īdditional FastRawViewer settings for TIFF/PNGįor new users, the settings are accessible through.
Rotating TIFF/PNG files in FRV is not supported for TIFFs, the Orientation tag is read, while PNGs have no such tag.
TIFF/PNG files do not have any ratings/labels (they aren't read they can't be applied).
So, sorting by EXIF date is not possible for PNG files.īecause FastRawViewer writes XMP data to XMP sidecar files, and no other program that we tried reads them for TIFF/PNG (and we don't want to write into the files themselves out of safety considerations), we had to make a difficult but necessary choice: there is no XMP support for TIFF/PNG, specifically:
#Fastrawviewer convert to jpg full#
PNG: EXIF extracted and displayed, but there are format limitations: it is not possible to extract EXIF from PNG without (slow) full image unpack.
BigTIFF: EXIF not extracted/displayed, no plans to support it until several/many users will request it (with image samples).
TIFF files: EXIF is extracted and displayed.
If you change the color space for thumbnails, then the old previews will be displayed inaccurately we recommend using Menu - File - Reload - Clear thumbnails cache (unfortunately it is currently impossible to remove only the previews for LAB files from the cache).
Compression methods: standard TIFF (Uncompressed, RLE, LZW), Adobe Deflate, Deflate.Ĭolor data: both ICC/ICM profiles and Primaries/WhitePoint/Gamma are read and displayed (if Gamma is absent, gamma is considered to be = 2.2 for integers and 1.0 for floating point).Īttention: LAB-tiff previews are stored in the preview cache (see below Thumbnail cache section) in RGB format.
Photoshop TIFFs with built-in layers: what is displayed are the composite previews (full-sized) created by Photoshop, information about the layers is ignored.
As well as a few other formats (hasn't been fully tested yet): palette, inverted grayscale.
CMYK: 8/16 bit integer (very basic support, see below).
Grayscale: 8/16 bit integer and 16/32 floating point.
RGB/RGBA: 8/16 bit integer, 16/32 floating point (normalized to 0-1, though we haven't yet seen any other FP normalizations).
There is no full support for transparency and alpha channel, because FastRawViewer is a tool for photographers, not for designers.
As you can see with the logo on the current page and will see when launching the new version of FastRawViewer, we've changed the program icon and updated the logo.
