    Saving project as JPEG loses adjustment layers

    Webshark2000 Community Member

      I like to work with adjustment layers in Photoshop, that way I can always go back to the original image.  The only problem is that when I save a photo out as a JPEG it seems to discard all of the adjustment layers.  If I add saturation, adjust brightness/contrast, etc. with adjustment layers, it doesn't show up when saving as JPEG.  I've tried merging all layers before saving and that didn't work, and I've tried saving with all of the different JPEG options (Baseline Standard, Optimized, and Progressive) and that didn't help either.

       

      The only thing I have found that works is saving the file as a TIFF first and then opening the TIFF and saving that out as a JPEG.  What I'm I missing?
