I just downloaded GIMP 2.8.2 for MAC and I'm trying to export a file to other formats (PGN, JPEG etc. The export image window greys out and nothing happens for many minutes.
I finally give up and I get this error: Saving '/Users/muladhara2004/Desktop/filename.png' failed: Procedure 'file-png-save-defaults' returned no return values
I'll try to write this logically, but as logic has failed to get me the output I want, I suspect somewhere there will be something highly illogical...
I am trying to export a JPEG file, complete with images. I have setup the original file to 2362x602 pixels, at 300 ppi (making a canvas approximately 200x50mm). This is confirmed through Image -> Canvas Size.
Now if I want to print to paper, I can check the settings through Image -> Print Size, to confirm what size I will get.
What I want is to be able to do the same thing for an export jpg function. I need the JPG to come out at a specific dimension, not a specific pixel size. If I export my file now (File -> Export) as a jpg, I end up with a jpeg much wider than 200mm. A quick rightclick->properties shows me the jpg is still 2362x602 pixels, at '300dpi.' So why is that not the size I expect it to be?
Using Lightroom 5.3 with Camera Raw 8.3 on Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.2
Camera is a Canon EOS 70D, working with Raw files.Just noticed that when applying a range of changes to an image - Tone / Presence / Noise / Crop / Sharpening (and others)When exporting the image
- export to JPG, TIFF and PSD works ok, all changes applied correctly
- export to Raw and DNG do not include changes applied to image - original image is exported
Not a show stopper as I have usable formats, but would like all file formats available for flexibility.
When I select "Save As" or "Export", the list of available file formats is only a fraction of what the help file shows as supported file formats. The help file instructs me to use the instructions in "To modify or repair a CorelDRAW Graphics Suite installation" but this does not work. How can I get or verify that all the file format filters listed in Supported file formats are installed in my CorelDraw 15?
Right now I am particularly interested in saving a CDR in the Visio (VSD) file format, but I would like to have of them available.
It is convenient to add each image name as a text on each figure by Slideshow. Could I use each image name as the exported file name?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm working with a jpg file. I'd like to be able to see how the photo will fit in various printed formats--8x10, 10x14, 12x18, for example, and what cropping, if any, I'd need to perform. How do I do that? And how do I see its current size, given either the horizontal or vertical dimension?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to remove some of the "save as" file formats from the list (when saving a file as...)? After numerous years in my field, there are a number of file formats I have - and probably never will - need to save my files as. If I could remove some of them, then it would speed up my workflow (so that I don't have to scroll down every time I save a file).

Can you take a picture of a car; select it with the scissors tool ; put it in a new picture file layer; and export it in the shape of a car?
Then when you put it over another picture, it is already edited.
Probably not, but I thought I would ask.
Recently I have shifted to Gimp 2.8. I also use picasa to createdescription and upload purpose. Image descriptions created by picasa isgetting lost if I export (after edits) in gimp. Gimp is replacing existingdescription with "x-default".
View 1 Replies View RelatedIt would be great if gimp could somehow ease the following steps.
1) "select" (stamp from image)
2) "ctrl+c"
3) "ctrl+shift+v" (paste as new image)
4) "ctrl+shift+e" (export)
5) "[filename].jpeg" (alter extension png->jpeg) +"enter" (dialog)
6) +"enter"(export options)
7) + "ctrl+w" (close)
8) +"click on close wo saving"
I wonder if it's not possible to do this in 3 steps:
1) select
2) shortcut export
3) enter filename using predefined (possibly hardcoded) jpeg export options
I saw there's an Export Selection[1] Plugin, but I couldn't get it working with Gimp 2.8 Windows.

I reinstalled my photoshop and now I can't save in JPEG formats. I did an 10 hour work and I have to send it to my clients but they only accpet JPEG formats. someone please help.
(I'm currently using Photoshop CS 8.0) ...
A photo (a complex one with different layers) that was originally saved as a jpeg (100% quality) but after changing its size, saved as a png, is now used on another png photo.
When saving the end result as one photo with the png format as well, is that going to cause problems^^ with regards to print quality or not?
As it basically means a kind of mix and matching of jpeg and png formats.
I am trying to export a file as a pdf but it will only let me do jpeg. My instructor says that it should give me a choice between the two but it does not it only gives me the choice to save it as a jpeg. Is there something wrong with my Lightroom or is it something that I am doing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using Photoshop for about 20 years. It isn't our primary software, but it is very important to our business, as some clients do not know how or cannot use Reader. In such cases, I used to save the PDF's as JPG's or other acceptable formats available in the Photoshop program. It was very handy. My old Photoshop was working very well with the XP version of Japanese Windows, even though it was an English version of the program. Unfortunately, I had to upgrade from XP to Windows 7 due to XP becoming obsolete. On top of that I lost somewhere my old disc with Photoshop on it, but I assume that it wouldn't work with the new OS anyway because of its age? I decided to buy a new version and to have a better idea of what it looks like these days, I tried to upload the trial version of Photoshop CC from the net. It went well, but I have a huge problem with it. It is all in Japanese. Although I live in Japan and speak the language, I cannot read the squiggles, especially the professional ones. I need to have all the program commands in E for the program to work for me, otherwise, you will agree, there is no point in spending that sort of cash. Can I download an E version from somewhere? I tried everything, but the only download page I can get from Japan is in Japanese. Will the E version work with the J Windows 7? Is there any way to change the J commands to E?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI tried to export a 48x32 inch file as a jpeg at 300 dpi from CS6 (very basic file).
Immediatly got the message that Illustrator was unable to export at this resolution.
So, I opened the same file in CS5 and it exported it under the same settings with no issue at all?
Does this mean that CS6 export is worse that it was in CS5?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created an image on illusrator CS6 and am ready to save it.
I have saved it as a pdf format and the image stays as a sharp vector image and not blurry at all.
But I also want to keep the image as a jpeg. So when I go to export the image from illustrator CS6 as a jpeg, the end result comes out blurry and not sharp anymore, but more jagged on the edges of the image.
Is there anything I can do to keep my file as a jpeg with it staying as a sharp crisp image?
problems with the Export to JPEG dialog.
1. It does not show the original file size. At one time I used this as a cue to see if I had forgotten to resample.
2. After the installation of version 16.3, the displayed compressed file size is no longer accurate. It varies from perfect to reading 25% too high.
I cannot seem to exprt my images and retain the orginal jpeg file number once I have watermarked them... I choose the "save with original file number" option in the drop down list but it still exports them with new numbers. How do I keep my original numbers?

OK - so i've done a little bit of an edit to a photo and just wanted to save it to a jpeg so i could use it in other stuff. I was just wondering where this function is?
I've attached an image of the options that are available to me when i select save as.
I wanted to know what the difference between .JPEG and .JPG were. I found this link:

Basically they are the same extension and on older computers they could not hold more than a 3 character abbreviated file extension.
But, I want know, what other extensions are relative to Gimp, or what and why is .xcf, .png, .gif, .jpeg, .jpg, the extensions always used? Are there others? What is the relevance to .xcf, and the plug ins are all saved as .scm, .gbr, etc. That part makes sense, but I have a plug in for G'MIC with a strange extension (.par2) and I cannot install it.
For some reason Gimp 2.8 forces me to save in xcf format. Most times I want to save a file in jpeg or png format. Having to save as xcf, and then export to jpeg or png is a pain in the unmentionables. Especially when reopening the file for editing, requiring another pointless dance with the export system.
Is there some module, upgrade, improvement, fork or other means by which export is merged with save/save as functionality, thus removing the additional steps in the process of saving a file? Ideally it should involve nothing more than hitting Ctrl S for an a file that already has a name. Put another way, something that works the way everything else does.
