Bridge 2021 V11.0 exported images are oversaturated and over contrast

[Wes Duenkel]

10.1 didn't have this problem, but 11.0 does. Exported images are oversaturated and too much contrast. This is not a color management issue. If I save the iamge in photoshop, it is correct. If I export it in Bridge, it is oversautrated and too much contrast. Same color space (sRGB).

The difference is apparent, even when viewing in photoshop. Like I said: not a color management issue.

Please tell me there is a fix for this.

Attached is an example. The image on the left is "saved as" a jpg in Photoshop. It appears consistent with how it appears in Bridge. On the right is the exported image from Bridge. It is oversaturated and much higher contrast than in PS and when viewed in Bridge. Both images are being displayed in Photoshop, so this is not a "profile aware" issue. This needs to be fixed, or export is useless to me.

Hi Wes,

You have these images saved as JPGs and ProPhoto is best for 16bit images, JPGs are 8 bit. What happens when you save the images as 16 bit ProPhoto images?

Also, what happens when you have saved them as JPG (8 bit) but have them in Adobe RGB 1998? Or even is sRGB?

Same results. There is an issue specifcially with Bridge's export funciton. Someting changed from the previous version to the new one. 10.1.1 did NOT have this problem.

I have narrowed down this problem to images that are exported using the "Scale Image" Image Size option. Images using the "Resize to" option are corect. VERY strange.

I suspect this is related: any export setting that involves resizing results in an export error:

I have had no export errors resizing images so far in Bridge

Updating ACR to V13.0 solved the export error issue. But I hate 13.0 😞
