Spatially highly resolved solar photospheric line profiles are analyzed by calculating bisectors, line center velocities, and line asymmetries in order to investigate the influence of magnetic fields on these parameters. A set of three spectrograms containing regions of different magnetic activity is used. In the active regions, a reduction of continuum intensity fluctuations as well as small-scale velocity fluctuations is confirmed; however, on subgranual scales, the continuum intensity fluctuations and line center velocities for the lines originating higher than 200 km in the troposphere are found to be increasing in active regions and becoming equal to or higher than those in nonactive regions. Significant changes are observed in the profiles: the mean line asymmetry is negative in the nonactive regions and positive with a reduction of the standard deviation in the active regions.
