I am trying to save an original vector psd to a jpg, however it is coming out with compression on it. I am saving it as maximum quaility level 12, but it still appears. Any ideas what else is causing this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I upload photos to[URL]... They will either be a very large file size and delay the download of the page or they will come out grainy. I have tryed adjusting them in Photoshop, but I will either loose quality or they will not be compressed enough. It there an easier tool that I am missing?

I'm trying to decrease the compression quality since I'm uploading these clips to stock video footage websites. However, when I go to export the video, under the Compression screen the Quality area is grayed out at 100% and won't let me move the tab over to decrease it. How to change it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn relation to Photoshop, in the status bar at the bottom it displays what it calls “document sizes”. How to clarify can this be used to determin the quality of a jpeg file ?
For example if I open up a jpeg with no compression (file size on disk is 4.57mb) it displays Doc:34.5M/34.5M however if I open the same file with compression set at 5 (file size on disk is 748kb) and ‘document size’ doesn’t change. How does the document size relate to jpeg compression etc...?
I have many images of slides scanned at high res (4800 DPI, maximum pixels 5214x3592). Although I will be saving these as loss less TIFs, I also wish to make JPGs from them that I wish to be just less than 5 MB in file size. Aside from cropping, I know I can achieve such a reduction of JPG file size by a combination of saving to lower quality JPG compression or reducing image size. My question is, what is theoretically or practically better, achieving this mostly by reducing image total pixels or by reducing JPG compression quality.

My question is how to maintain high quality (original quality) of a image after resizing it?
If i resize it with same ratio like:
2816x2112px to 1600x1200px (4:3)
2816x1584px to 1920x1080px (16:9)
Mainly i use scale image option in Gimp. But now i need to resize many images for my work so i tried David's Batch Processor to resize my images. After using it, i found there is some quality promble with the resized image.
Then i tried, the scale option with, use quality setting from original image and JPEG quality parameter is 95, in gimp but the problem is same. I did it with also with David's batch processor- JPEG quality parameter is 95.
Other thing is that, the original image 2816x2112px (4:3), size- 3.6 MB is displaying in image viewer with 47% and the resized image 1600x1200px (4:3). size- 1.2 MB is displaying in image viewer with 83%, So my questions are: How can i check the quality of a image after resizing it, means the image is exactly same as the original? Or Is David's Batch Processor maintain the original quality of the images after resizing?. I realy need to resize many images for my work.
I'm pretty new to photoshop, and I've started on a personal project. I want to basically take a video still from a music video and turn it into a poster. Sadly i can not find a good quality version of the video as it is older and not super famous, (kyuss-one inch man). So i found an online video that is better then youtube but not great, and i captured it through the vista snipping tool (screen capture).
Basically I want to take this low quality picture, and turn it into a good quality poster (not huge). What techniques and things must I do? I'll probably have to find a printer near here and require a specific dpi as well.
I'm trying to understand jpg file compression and how Photoshop deals with it. Let's say I have two jpg files of the same subject - one was compressed to 4.4 MB and the other was compressed to 1.2 MB. I was told by a friend that once they are opened in Photoshop, that it did not matter how much compression was previously done since opening them in Photoshop will uncompress them back to their original uncompressed 20+ MB file size and that you will not lose any image quality. So that a higher level of original compression will not degrade the photo quality since Photoshop brings back (uncompresses) the file back to the original size when the picture was taken.

how to do it?
I understand that the .jpg format is a compression file that will degrade over time after repeated saves using photo editing software.
However, does this loss of information from a compressed file still/also occur after the file has been placed into other programs such as InDesign, Word, etc.?
I am trying to import photos from my computer to Photoshop elements 11. It has imported most but wont import some as "file quality is too high". How do I get around this? Do I have to downgrade the quality of my photos? To do editing wouldn't you want the best quality photos to start off with?
View 6 Replies View Related I've got a file of about 40mb which saves as a max quality jpeg in Photoshop at around 12mb. Once it goes into InDesign and comes out of the other end as part of a PDF the file size is down to 3mb.
I'm convinced data is being lost but one of the answers seems to indicate that zip compression is now being used in addition to the jpeg.
I always thought it was hardly worth zip compressing files like jpg, mp3 etc that are already compressed and that the only way InDesign could be knocking my jpegs down to a fraction of their size was by recompressing them as lower-quality jpegs?
I did a ton of research on Video Editing software and decided to try VS Pro X4 first due to it's ease of use (good for me) and capabilities that I can grow into. So far I would say the experience has been positive and feel I could happily settle in with VS Pro X4 for the long haul, but have just a couple of questions I would like to resolve first. They may not be issues at all, but more due to my lack of knowledge, but figured experienced users like yourselves would be able to determine that in short order.
I've split my questions into separate (3) threads so that people don't have to suffer through content they're not interested in. Here's a brief run down on where I'm at and what I'm trying to do.
I'm about half-way through my 30day trial of VS Pro X4, and starting to feel a little more comfortable with the software, but a few things are still puzzling me. Granted I've only scratched the surface of the SW capabilities so far.
I'm a complete newbie to this digital video stuff, however I'm not a complete newbie to computers. Basically I have a shoeobox of old 8mm camcorder tapes (analog) and have finally decided to take the plunge and digitize them, mainly because we never end up watching the tapes 'cause it's such a pain.
First question; A friend of mine is letting me borrow his ADVC300 converter, connected to a Firewire400 card in my PC. VS Pro X4 capture works fine, was able to capture an entire 8mm tape. It was an entire tape because that's the way it was taped, it was a music performance so the tape ran through the whole show. I was able to add a simple title and burn to a DVD disc. What should I expect for MPEG compression when burning to a DVD? I couldn't fit it all on one DVD disc, had to split it into two discs, not a big deal, just thought the mpeg conversion would have compressed it more? Maybe that's wishful thinking on my part? It's a 2 hour & 2minute video which equals a large ~8.7Gb raw DV capture file through the ADVC. I know a DVD is 4.7Gb max so obviously the 8.7Gb raw file won't fit, but is 2:1 compression/conversion expecting too much for the mpeg conversion? Maybe there's some options I should be using to compress it more?
All in all I'm pretty happy with the ADVC to digital capture functions with VSPx4 so far.
How do i compress JPEG images?
I have Fireworks and Paint only.
Do i need special software?
where I can find a royalty free animation?
You know how when you copy files, or delete them on Windows theres that little animation of the piece of paper destroying itself and stuff like that?
what is the diffrence between these two pictures(the same picture both are .JPG images but the quality and size is diffrent)
i assume that they are saved with diffrent compression and encoding or sumthing like that.
BMW 1 (Good Quality)
BMW 2 (Normal Quality)
Cadalac 1 (Good Quality)
Cadalac 2 (Normal Quality)
EDIT: to see the diffrence between them, you must look at them with atleast 2x or 3x
I need to create a Batch process that takes a directory full of sub-directories (which contain uncompressed Tiff files)and re-saves the TIFFs with LZW compression in the same directories WITHOUT creating any new files. My problem is that when creating the action the only way I can save with LZW compression is by using the "Save as" option. This creates new files and when I run the action it dumps all the files in whatever directory I am saving in while creating the action, instead of saving them in their original locations.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was just making a short, 1:12-long video encoded as H.264 in an MP4 wrapper. I had edited the video in Premiere Pro CC, and was exporting through Adobe Media Encoder at a framerate of 29.97 FPS and a resolution of 1920x1080. I wanted to do a test to see how much GPU acceleration benefits me. So, I ran two different tests, one with and one without. The one with GPU acceleration finished in 2:09. The one without it took 2:40, definately enough to justify using GPU acceleration (my GPU is an NVidia GTX 660 Ti which I have overclocked). I am sure my benefits would be even greater in most videos I make, since this one had relatively few effects. However, I checked the file sizes out of curiosity, and found that the one made with GPU acceleration was 175 MB in size, and the other was 176 MB. While the difference is pretty small, I am wondering why it exists at all. I checked the bitrates, and the one made with GPU acceleration is 19,824 KB/s, whereas the other is 19,966 KB/s. I used the exact same presets for both. I even re-encoded the videos again just to test it and verify the results, and the second test confirms what the first showed. So, what I am wondering is: What is it that made this possible, and could this be used to my advantage in future productions?
In case it is in any way relevant, these are my computer's specifications:
-Hardware-
Case- MSI Interceptor Series Barricade
Mainboard- MSI Z77A-G45
Power Supply Unit- Corsair HX-750

After I set my render settings in the render queue for h.264 movie the sound sample rate always jump back to the lowest quality and I can't export the movie with the sound qulity I want to.
View 1 Replies View Relatedvery slow saving of TIFF files I came across several articles online ("The Mac Performance Guide" being one of them) mentioning that if you turn off compression for TIFF files it'll take a lot less time. The problem is I can't seem to find any compression settings at all.
I'm using Photoshop CS4 on a Mac, mostly editing via Lightroom 3 first (I suspected the issue being that Lightroom opens up the files as 16 bit in Photoshop, but even 8 bit images in Photoshop won't give me any compression options). The above link specifies CS3, CS4 and CS5, so it should be in there somewhere.
I am creating video in FLV (custome mode). The only audio compression option is PCM which makes video too big.
How do I add different audio compression codec for FLV video? With other video formats/codecs mpeg-4 I have many moore audio compression options, but not for FLV.
I was using Premiere Elements 2.0. I have an issue on exporting my video to YouTube via MP4: I can't seem to change the compression ratio, it seems fixed at 128k. This lousy ratio is causing compression artifacts given that the source audio has a low level hiss.
How can I improve the compression?
Any recommendation for a quicktime .mov compression setting that results in good quality and a manageable file size?
Pro X3
Windows Vista
I'm doing a video and the client requested the final product as a quicktime file. I've had good results with creating .wmv files but haven't had much luck with .mp4 or .mov files. Using the "custom" option under "create video file" I select "Quicktime Movie Files" as the type. Every compression option I choose comes out crappy and a very small file size. When I select "no compression" the video looks great, but it's almost 2 gigs (the video is only about a minute long). The client will be uploading this video to a product page on Amazon and I think they have a maximum file size, probably around 500 MB.
I hope to convince the client to just accept a .wmv or maybe even a .flv file instead since I think Amazon accepts both of those. But in an effort to give them what they want, I hope to deliver in a .mov format.
One of my clients wants their files sent securely on DVD. One suggestion was to ZIP the jpegs and then appy the password option.
Has anyone done this? As it is really for security I would save at minimum compression.
But Does it affect the image quality?
Is there a better solution for secure delivery?
I have CS3 extended and have been compiling a series of high resolution photographs into one layer in photoshop. I have copy and pasted each photo and then stitched them together resulting in a file that is 1.35Gb. I want to compress the file, keeping the resolution as high as possible, so it is easier to use in illustrator and import into ArcGIS. I have tried saving the file as a jpg, pdf and tiff with variable compression qualities. As soon as i open the image up in a different programme and zoom in I loose the picture, eitehr to a blank screen or a message saying 'invalid format/picture'. Opening the file and saving is taking so long too do as well...
View 3 Replies View RelatedInstalled the latest 2.8.4 build for WIN 32 bit. This newly installed version only recognizes the .xcf file type; it will not save to, or load any of my numerous files saved as .xcf.gz
The message I get is:
The given filename does not have any known file extension. enter a known file extension or select a file format from the file format list.
The file format list only contains .xcf
I've uninstalled and reinstalled with a fresh download, with the same results.
Simply wondering how possible it is, because we've got roughly 2400 files that need to be re-saved without RLE compression due to causing issues in the conversion process. A manual job would take quite a while.
If there's no way of automating the process, is there any way of reducing the time of re-saving every image individually at all?
Adobe Photo Shop CS5 offers three options for conversion of a RAW file to TIFF (LZW, ZIP, and JPEG).
I do not understand which of these employ the "run-length encoding" scheme that should make the TIFF file much smaller than the RAW file. I have used all three types of compression but the only one that resulted in a substantial reduction in size was the JPEG compression.
The TIFF file with no compression is actually twice the size of the raw file. What are the LZW and ZIP compressions actually doing?
I just purchased VideoStudio. My needs are extremely basic, but I've found one issue that I wouldn't have expected, that is, when I go to save a video and choose MP4, H-264 Main, 1280x720, the compression does not allow you to go below 5000 kbps.
I think this is a good base line, but to not allow you to go below this figure is frustrating. Is there a way to update the limiter so you can go beneath this without changing anything else?
The PSP X4 that I have compresses jpegs to an extreme amount even when set on compression factor 1. (a 4000 kb jpeg gets compressed to 1900kb. The previous versions would not change the compression when you open a file and just save it without changes. This one cuts the file size in more than half.
I really like some of the new layout and features, however my clients won't accept a jpeg that is compressed that much. Any other setting I need to change to stop this?
