I’ve worked in the print industry for many years and I know my way around color management, at least in windows and macos. No matter what I do, images that I process on the linux machine all have this issue. Viewing the jpgs in different programs on the windows machine Photoshop, Adobe Bridge, Affinity Photo Making jpgs in different color spaces: sRGB, AdobeRGB1998 Recalibrating and using the exact same settings as I use on the window machine rather than the displaycal defaults They look great on that one computer but when I view them on my windows computer they are like 80% darker and like 90% more contrasty than they appear on the linux machine. Images that I process on the linux machine look great both in RT and when I export to jpg and look at them in gwenview, geeqie, gimp and whatever image viewer ubuntu uses by default. I basically set everything up in linux exactly as I do in windows.Įverything seems to be in order. I copied the common icc profiles from my windows machine. I set the working color space to AdobeRGB1998 and the output color space to the same. I pointed RT at the monitor profile that displaycal made and set the rendering intent to relative colormetric. I installed argyll cms and displaycal and I calibrated my display with my colormunki display. I’m using Ubuntu 16.10 and I installed RT5 using the directions on the RT site. However I’ve run into an issue that I can’t figure out.

I’m testing out linux to see if I can, finally, give windows the old heave-ho. I’ve been using RT on windows and macos for a while now without any troubles.
