Hi Jason,
Let me ask an initial question.
You saved the image in Photo Shop presumably in Adobe 1998 color space.
When you open Qimage, you see the thumbnails of your saved images.
If you just hover the mouse pointer over one of these images, you will get a read on the hotbar, lower left of the screen of the color space...
It will say ICC followed by the color space that Qimage is using.
I would like to know what color space is indicated, and more important, whether that profile name has asterisks before and after the name.

Thanks for the replies.

I have a directory with two JPGs that I save the same way, both with the Adobe profile I presume from the RAW file (as that is what my camera is set to). I hover over both of the images, one shows AdobeRGB with asterisks around, and the other shows sRGB with asterisks around. I swear, I did the same thing to both files - bit of retouching, crop, flatten, save again at 12 quality for print.

When I check the adobe info, they both are showing AdobeRGB.

First of all, you should understand that Terry and I asre saying the same thing, but sometimes, we approach from sifferent angles, and you might get a clue from either direction.

The fact that you show asterisks is a major clue.
It says, plainly that the color space profiles of RGB or ADOBE are *embedded* in the image and Qimage respects that and makes no change.
(It will allow you to change it if you wish, but those profiles are embedded by CS5 or CS6.)

So check your settings on PS ....

There are settings for working space, assign a profile, save as ... with a profile... and these are easy to mess up.

I have no idea how to advise you other than to do trial and error, but I'm sure there has to be someone around that knows PS well enough to specifically tell you what to set and where.

If nothing heard here by my noon (EDT), then I will make some phone calls and see if I can find out.

I am playing around in S5 and trying to save a JPG in Adobe and/ or RGB.
I can do it by removing the checkmark from the USE this profile, Save as box.
I get an sRGB or aRGB embedded.....

But to add to the already overly confusing, and unnecessarily complicated mess, if I save the JPG using SAVE AS, the profile is embedded. If I use FILE SAVE, uncheck, I get  a JPG with no profile at all, and therefore Qimage tags it as sRGB.
So to make it a total can of maggots, If I Save as without a checkmark in Use this profile, I get an embedded RGB.
If I use FILE SAVE, without a checkmark, I get no profile embedded.

More...
If I change the color working space from Adobe to sRGB in PS5, I use Save AS, and uncheck USE THE PROFILE, I get a no profile embedded. with a check, I get RGB embedded.
BUT NOW, File SAVE is grayed out.

Can of worms does not adequately describe this convoluted mess.

Now you can see what a marvel of simple color management is if you use Qimage....
