Digital Light & Color

I set a simple workflow with breakpoints to process a batch of images for promotion (small sizes). In the process contrast and colours were adjusted, somewhat differently for each image.

Now, I'd like to print some of them in a larger format, but make them look similar to their small version. That wasn't planned, and I have to reinvent the changes I've made to those images, since they don't have sidecar files that recorded the adjustments I made to them.

Is it possible to do that: i.e. produce a sidecar file for each of the processed image in the workflow?

Cheers!

There is only one workflow file in a workflow so there is no per-image record of any custom steps.

One way that you could achieve the same result however would be to perform all your operations at full resolution and then end the workflow with two Save File widgets. The first widget would save the image at full resolution. The second would resize the image and save it at a reduced resolution. This would also mean that you would not need to reprocess to get a full resolution image -- you would already have it.

Thanks Kiril,

That should work, but typically I initially want to process relatively large number of images to small contact sheet size (skipping the unnecessary workflow steps for that size and downsampling them at the begining makes the process faster). Then revisit a few of them and process them at larger size (and I make the workflow more sophisticated then by using other widgets that were skipped for the small ones), but I would like to keep the colours and contrast similar for both. Keeping record of what I've done to each of the small images would simplify that, I think.
