Michel M. Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hi, I have found contradictory statements about that question in the web. Also, some say that images can be saved in a 16 bit format, but the 16 bit palette might not be available through the image editing process itself. I observed that the gradation curve tool indicates numbers from 0 to 255, which supports the theory that you're limited to 8 bit while editing. Best, Michel PS: I'm importing TIFF, and save them as PNG, in case that this matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, Paint.NET does not support editing in 16-bits per channel (64-bits per pixel). Quoting the Popular Feature Requests thread: Quote CMYK support, or 16-bits per pixel support -- Not gonna happen. If you really need good software for working with images for printing, or need to work at a professional level, then I must honestly point you towards Adobe Photoshop. 1 Quote Plugin Pack | PSFilterPdn | Content Aware Fill | G'MIC | Paint Shop Pro Filetype | RAW Filetype | WebP Filetype The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
