Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer without mask: 135 MBĬaptureOne20 is perhaps indicating "Old" PSDs that demand compatibility behaviour from PS? I've posted metadata from the files below, and I can't see anything interesting in it, mind you. Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer with blank mask: 135MB Immediately "Save As" the TIFF to a PSD, and reopen the PSD, then: Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer without mask: 339 MBīase Uncompressed TIFF image exported from CaptureOne 20: 206MB Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer with blank mask: 339MB Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer without mask: 171 MBīase PSD image exported from CaptureOne 20: 206MB Saved as PSD plus Curves Adjustment Layer with blank mask: 171MB Some data that yeilded some very interesting results:īase PSD image exported from Adobe Camera RAW: 206MB Save history to medatada is turned OFF, Compress PSD/PSB is turned ON on both machines. Subsequent layers don't appeart to attract this "Layer tax", so if I add 5 curves layers the filesize doesn't bloat beyond 344Mb.įurthermore I've had a friend, also on Windows with also the latest version of PS CC perform this test, and as far as we can tell his files behave as you would expect - adjustment layers without masks do not significantly increase filesize. empty (Though of course COULD be stored as 36million 0x0000 RGBA pixels, so perhaps this is a valid result here). However the adjustment layer here has no alpha, and the empty layer is. It would make sense of course if by adding an adjustment layer with a mask, that the filesize increases because you have to accommodate the alpha channel. Add a new, curves adjustment layer with no mask.Adding empty or adjustment layers (With no mask) to some 16 Bit PSDs seems to unecessarily bloat the filesize.
