PMView Pro Forums _ PMView - Windows Technical Support _ Windows Vista

Microsoft provide a test JPG (of a motorcycle) with colour channels switched to test if colour profiles are handled correctly by applications under Vista with its new facilities.
It can be found at:

With PMView (3.53) the bike is blue.
Microsoft say that means the "the embedded profile is being completely ignored."

Is this a deliberate decision to ignore the profiles in PMView?

I freely confess I do not understand the significance of this - if any!

I only stumbled across this because I wanted to understand why each of my image applications give slightly different views of an image.

I have attached the test image.

David,

This is correct. PMView does not incorporate color management. I've planned to add LCMS to PMView at some point...
