 **WARNING**: After you have applied all the required changes to the RAW image, be sure to click over the image thumbnail itself; this will force OM Workspace to register all the changes applied to that image (there is not an actual //save// function when processing a RAW file, since every step can be reverted). Only in this way will you be sure that the image passed to the external registered application will be the processed one, otherwise the exported image will not contain the latest applied effects. **WARNING**: After you have applied all the required changes to the RAW image, be sure to click over the image thumbnail itself; this will force OM Workspace to register all the changes applied to that image (there is not an actual //save// function when processing a RAW file, since every step can be reverted).

-OM Workspace saves a copy of the image (in TIFF format, not compressed RAW, 16bit per RGB channel) into the ''$HOME/OM Workspace/'' directory and opens it with the registered program. If the registered image is **IrfanView** (as suggested) you have the opportunity to **save the image as JPEG** or other formats. Beware that every time you choose the //Launch registered application// function, a new copy of the image will be saved into ''$HOME/OM Workspace/'', and these images have a considerable size!+When you click the menu //Photos// => //Launch registered application//, OM Workspace saves a copy of the image (in TIFF format, not compressed RAW, 16bit per RGB channel) into the ''$HOME/OM Workspace/'' directory, so this is eventually sufficient to export the developed image. If you have installed **IrfanView** (or other similar application) you have the opportunity to **save the image as JPEG** or other formats.

 OM Workspace can apply to a RAW file (in post-production) almost all the effects that the E-M10 can do in-camera, plus many others. However the result will not be an exact bit-by-bit copy of the JPEG eventually produced in-camera, the most notable difference is in the Exif tags. OM Workspace can apply to a RAW file (in post-production) almost all the effects that the E-M10 can do in-camera, plus many others.
