  Photoshop CS5 .tiff NO RGB info

  Posted by Alex Shroyer on February 25, 2011 at 6:13 pm

  Hey All,

  I have been having a strange problem with .tiff files that were delivered to me by a client that will not show any RGB information in photoshop CS5. The files are RGB color and 16bit/channel.

  When the same exact file is opened in CS4 everything is all normal with RGB info and all…

  Does anyone have any idea whats happening here?

  thanks much
  alex

  Were they saved as a TIFF with layers, or a flat TIFF? I don’t know who/what/where/when/why people would use a TIFF with layers but it seems to be more of a problem than useful for me.

  TIFF with layers exactly same as PSD feature for feature

  Does allow compression on save
  Easier to import into apps like FCP then return to PS to modify

  I stopped using psd files right since tiff allows layers. It takes a little longer to save them, but they use less space on the hard drive. It sort of removed a step from my previous workflow.
