I have a total of 4 images each of which has 3840x2160 pixels 72dpi. Each image has a memory size of 66MB. I have created a new empty area in affinity photo 2 with the dimensions 7680x4320 and inserted the 4 images. When I export this now it has 130 MB memory size. However, as each individual image has 66 MB, the new image should normally have a memory size of about 240 MB. The 4 individual images all have the same png file format, as does the exported image. Can you help me?
I have now tried this with Photoshop. If I change the bit png, think color run embedded and not. Nothing helps if I let the image in Photoshop under image larger info display customer there is the perfect size I want to have at export. When exporting it is larger than 100 MB.

Not sure I follow.
Could you please post screenshots to clarify?
Are you complaining that the filesize is too small?
Can you provide at least one of the four images?

Both png and jpeg use compression algorithms to reduce file size. How much the size is reduced depends on a lot of variables and can be very unpredictable.
File size on disk generally means nothing and is nothing to worry about - except that jpeg compression is destructive and will degrade the file with every save. PNG compression is non-destructive.
Not sure why you need an image almost 10 000 pixels wide on the web, though. If this is not for web, don't use Export, Use Save As/Save a Copy.
