Raw Therapee is a great tool, but I find the documentation befuddling. I'd like to convert about 100 Nefs to 16 bit pgn. I'm not making edits at this time, but would also be interested in knowing what my optional line would be to apply a batch edit.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have both Photoshop CS5.1 and Photoshop 6 and have upgraded to latest versions of Adobe Camera Raw and DNG converter. However, my NEF files still will not convert/open. The product descriptions for ACR and DNG converter says it should support the D4 files. I have clients to send pics to asap and this issue is costing my money.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just bought a refurb' imac 27" and have imported my photos to the imac, inside a folder I have created inside picture called 'Lightroom 4 photos'
The photos were originally NEFs on my windows laptop, and were imported/edited originally using the Nikon programs transfer, view nx and capture nxw, They all contain my copyright info etc, and have been keyworded. I am about to import them into LR4, but a little niggle is stopping me. I understand that LR4 won't read my NX2 edits, but can't find out whether a) LR will read the existing metadata so I have to do nothing, or b)I will have to enter all metadata again into lightroom.
I have about 800 photos, so wouldn't be a huge problem if I needed to re-enter
I have found support for Nikon D800 NEF files incomplete in Lightroom 4 with ACR 7.0.
NEF files created by the camera in 16:9 mode using the shutter release set to take stills (setting g4) cannot be previewed or imported in LR 4.
Setting g4 and the 16:9 mode are discussed in the Nikon D800/D800E User Guide on pages 324 and 68 respectively.
Photoshop with ACR 7.1 beta seems to be able to open these files.
I am getting extreme variations in file size when I open my D800e nefs in Photoshop cs5, & Bridge. When I highlight the same nefs on my Mac(10.6.8) & "get info", I get another file size. D800e files are about 103 MB each at 8 bit, but can vary dramatically when I open them in Bridge or Cs5.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am an experienced Photoshop user, but just found Gimp. So far, very good. I work as a consultant Chemical Engineer, in an oil refinery.
I plan to bring converted DWGs - to PDFs - into Gimp, and then insert/modify with new valves, pumps, control valves, pressure controls, vessels, etc. That would be used as "marked-up" flow diagrams, P&IDs, for new designs or modifications.
Is there a selection of objects like this that can be opened directly into Gimp, without my needing to create each one? Yes, I realize there would be some advantages to a vector-based program versus a bit-mapped program, but I can modify and use existing drawings much easier in a bit-mapped program.
Is it possible to even be able to create objects like this and import/open them in Gimp, to be moved/pasted to wherever one likes?
I have created an animated gif with 30 Frames/Layers that runs in the 'Loop Forever' option.
I now wish to convert this GIF to run in the 'Ping-Pong' option but cannot figure how to do this without going through the whole ‘Extract Videorange’ process again as this is the only place that I can find that will allow me the option of selecting 'Ping-Pong' when I’m selecting the short clip to create the GIF from the original AVI.
I have tried opening the GIF in the main GIMP window, then selecting the ‘Video’ dropdown then ‘Move Path’. This will open a window for some GIFs, but it wont recognise other GIFs as a valid source. Even when I can get this window to open it gives multiple error messages and I can’t figure how to import the GIF into it so that I can select the 'Ping-Pong' option in the ‘Step Mode’ field.
I am using GIMP 2.6.11 as I haven’t upgraded to the new version yet.

How to convert a PDF image to PNG in command line using Gimp?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a lot of xcf's which I want to save as png's and do not want to do this manually in Gimp.

I have 100 BMP images, all the same size ( 508 x 320 ). Is there simple procedure to import these into GIMP and save as an Animated GIF ?
From what I've read ( via search and the manual ) I getting impression that I must create a layer for each frame and then insert the image. This would be very time consuming.
Virtual DUb has very user friendly interface, but I have problems with final product ( lots of residual artifacts )
how I would convert an XCF to a PNG on the windows command line. With flattening of layers.
Heres what I tried before I gave up...

I can't find a way to import an .icc into my GIMP work.
I want to do this so that the pictures on my computer monitor match as closely as possible to the prints from my local (high-end) print shop. My screen is Spyder calibrated.
I'm trying;
Image >>> Mode >>> Convert To Colour Profile >>> (and then from the pop-up box) >>> Convert to ... (and then from the pop-up box) >>> Select Colour Profile From Disk
... and then I select the new .icc (provided to customers on the print shop's website) from a Downloads folder on my local drive.
That all sounds right doesn't it?
It stubbornly remains on sRGB.icc
I've also tried the process in;
Edit >>> Preferences >>> Colour Management
Same result - ignores the selection of a new .icc and remains stuck on sRGB.icc.
I'm desperately trying to colour correct for printing today.
I have created a script to convert in a batch, about 2000 images, the problem is that gimp-file-save ignores image settings and uses its own defaults, so the image that has 6 layers, after being scaled, has only one layer!
the image is in format dds I am using gimp 2.8.2
the script:
(define (SECresizeTexture filename width height)(let* ((img (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)))(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-drawable img))))(gimp-image-scale img width height)(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE img drawable filename filename)))
as you can see, this is a generic script, I would like to avoid using the specific dds load/save because of increased complexity and for being specific to dds...
is it possible to set some format based on the original file? I could use the dds file save, parsing output from "identify -verbose filename" (imagemagick), but that will be a lot of trouble...
