Is there a file size limit that QU can read?  I work extensively with layers and often the tiffs exceed 2 GB or even 3 in some cases.  My experience so far with QU is that any file over 2 GB is not readable. Is this a known limitation? or I am doing something weird.
 
Thanks

Just a quick update:  I did few test prints on ipf8400 with Breathing Color papers and I like what i an getting from QU. Exactly what i was looking for from nesting perspective.

I played around a bit with the sharpening features and compared with my current sharpening tools/workflow. Results are encouraging. I will do some more tests.


Soft proofing: When i go into soft proofing window is there a way to do soft proofing ON / OFF for quick comparison like we have in PS.
Thx

Thank you Terry.  This discussion had helped me understand the true potential of QU

Thank You Terry and Mike. Thanks for the responses. These are quite helpful. I'll experiment with different QU options to get a good feel of it. 

Color Space:  My default is  ProPhoto RGB and i am sure information is embedded in the psd / tiffs.  Is there a way to validate this in PS.

Print sharpening: As i understand you are recommending I bring the image in QU without any output sharpening in PS and let that be handled via QU algorithms. Right?


Terry: You recommended "Also, NEVER resize in PS, let QU do that automatically," What do you mean by automatic resize. I did not get that part?

thanks again

I was looking for a tool that can help layout multiple images on a single print job / Sheet. (similar to what Imageprint by colorbyte offers for Epson printers). I read about Qimage   however after reading about it more and watching your videos I am not able to confirm if Qimage can do a pass through, i.e. can I “only” use Qimage for image layouts and not 'touch' with the processing i.e. sharpening, color etc.  in any way.

 

If yes Qimage can do the way I am wanting, then where and how does the color management occur when printing via Qimage? I’d like the color to be managed by Photoshop
thx
