Solved Does Irfanview use any color management by default?

[cwc]

I need to print some target tiffs to send off for a custom printer profile. For this, there can’t be any color management.

Can I use Irfanview for this task? Is there any color management that needs to be disabled?

Thanks in advance.

Properties, Zoom/Colour Management. Disable it if its enabled.

Hi,

for a printer color profile you need a complete color managed system. IrfanView can use some color profiles but for a complete system I bleieve you need more than just print a file with IrfanView. Since IV internally just uses 8 bit per color and TIFF might have even more, you will lose color information.
