Importing LUTs

Lookup tables (LUTs) define transformations to be applied to an image's colours in order to achieve a particular visual style. They are managed in the Adjustment panel.

Your Affinity app can import LUTs in several file formats:

Files with a .cube, .csp, .3dl, or .look file extension. Each file contains a single LUT.
Files with an .afluts extension. Each file contains a categorised collection of LUTs.

To import LUTs:

Create or open a document.
In the Photo Persona or Tone Mapping Persona, select the Adjustment panel.
Click the LUT adjustment.
Click Options, then do one of the following:
- Select Import LUTs if the add-on is a .cube, .csp, .3dl, or .look file.
- Select Import LUT Category if the add-on is an .afluts file.
Browse to and select the file you want to import.
Click Open.

After importing

If the imported add-on is a .cube, .csp, .3dl, or .look file, it is added to the currently selected LUT category in the Adjustment panel.

If the imported add-on is an .afluts file, the new LUT category is automatically displayed in the Adjustment panel.
