Photoshop export screen issue

Hi D. Fosse, unfortunately, "bugs" is not listed in the move post dialog. "Photoshop fix" is 

Neil, for an FYI, Photoshop Fix is (was) a mobile app that reached end of support two years ago. The forum only has posts from folks who say the app is crashing or otherwise not working for them anymore — or spam. Photoshop posts should not be moved there to die.

@CShubert - as Dave says, this isn't HDR. It's broken color management in the Export display path.

The really odd thing is that it's not missing color management, it's actively wrong color management. As a fun fact, it behaves exactly like Internet Explorer used to do before Microsoft got this right several years ago.

With the "convert to sRGB" box checked, it converts the document numbers as it should. That's fine. But then it substitutes the actual monitor profile on your system for sRGB! I've tested this through all possible combinations, and there's no doubt that's what it does. The net result is that if you have a wide gamut monitor, it will always be oversaturated, no exception.

With "convert to sRGB" unchecked, all color management is completely turned off, again including the monitor profile. Also wrong.

All web browsers today convert correctly into the monitor profile, on both platforms - even when there is no embedded document profile, in wich case sRGB is assigned. In other words, Export is not only wrong, but there is no possible scenario where it will even match a web browser.

And as Dave says, Save For Web has always done this correctly, and very reliably so. That's why I still use that.

Hey buddy I think its a bug

Hi Cory,

It is not an HDR issue, but simply that the Export As preview is not colour managed.

Save for Web (Legacy) is colour managed, provided 'Use document profile' is selected.

Hi @Buffalo Hollow curious if this is an HDR setting in Windows as in this post:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-bugs/p-windows-hdr-calibration-breaks-phoshop-ui-and-color-selection/idi-p/13281613

Moved to Bugs.

@Buffalo Hollow "Why on my export screen are my subjects showing in red?"

as D. Fosse wrote the colourmanagement of export has an issue,

why not convert to sRGB manually, set your image size and use "Save As", is there a good reason why you are using "export"?

I hope this helps

Export's display color management is broken, and has been for a long time. It's been reported many times.

The exported file is fine, but it doesn't display correctly in the Export dialog.

Can a moderator move this to "Bugs", so that it hopefully catches some attention?
