I have found the old legacy plugin Picture Package etc very useful. However It needs CS5 to be run in 32 bit mode. Is there an equivalent in CS5 (and CS6 when it comes) or Bridge or Light room?
Just installed CS6 on my new workstation and Photoshop; it freezes upon opening.Every other program I have installed has worked flawlessly, including the rest of the CS6 Suite and Lightroom 5.Both Windows and the Adobe Suite have all available updates already installed.Computer is a new HP Z420 Xeon Workstation, Windows 7 Pro 64bit, 16GB Ram.
In Photoshop CS6 (64bit), when using the brush tool (with a brush with pressure sensitivity activated), I quite often get a line drawn at the max width selected, as if there was no pressure sensitivity. Everything goes back to normal after I start drawing another line, and happens again after a few lines. It's quite random.
I don't have this problem in any other software (Illustrator CS6 64bit, Painter XII, Sketchbook Pro, Zbrush, ...). I have already checked and I've found some other users on other forums with the same problem.
One example, with a picture of the problem: [URL] Another one, exact same problem: [URL] Some of those users seem to have solved their problem by installing an old driver (6.1.5r3), but they had that problem with Intuos TABLETS in the first place, not a Cintiq 24HD... I have tried that, but unfortunately the driver is not compatible with the Cintiq 24HD.
To test this out: I've been able to reproduce the problem 90% of the times I've tried. if I keep the pen at 1 inch from the display so that it's still recognized by the screen but it's not drawing, then wiggle it a bit, and then I slowly move to the screen and tap it (as if I was starting a line with very low pressure), the problem appears and it makes a large dot, as if there was no pressure sensitivity. As I said the test doesn't work every time, but almost.
This is an image of what happens when I try and make dots in Photoshop. These are done trying to push the pen with the same (low) pressure. The big ones are from when the issue appears: [URL]
I have tried the pressure test in the Wacom utility software and it seems to work fine, it never jump to full even when I try the method I've just described. In the diagnostic page of the Wacom utility software the pressure is always correct, even when in Photoshop there's the brush sensitivity issue.
note: I've already tried to completely re-install my computer + the Adobe software + the lastest wacom driver for my Cintiq 24HD, and the problem is still the same.
My Photoshop 6 (64bit) starts but will not open an image and just hangs, you can't even shut it down.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled (with all updates) Photoshop 6 completely and they same thing happens. Photoshop 32bit works perfectly so I know it isn't the computer.
Both are referencing cooltype.dll. I ran Font Doctor on all system and non-system fonts and found no errors. Booted without Extensis Suitcase loading. Nothing works. All 32 bit programs work fine.
When I open an image in Photoshop CC 64-bit on my Dell XPS 15 L501x laptop with nVidia 420M GPU selected as graphics processor, the image is blank. If I go to the performance preferences and untick "Use Graphics Processor" the images are shown correctly after closing and reopening image (the same issue occurs with Basic, Normal and Advanced drawing mode selected).
I assume that Photoshop will run slower not using the graphics processor, so would like to sort it so I can use it to improve performance. If I remember correctly, on the trial version of CS5.1 on the same laptop, I just disabled OpenGL and the images were displayed fine. Is there any way to just disable OpenGL in Photoshop CC 64-bit (or resolve this another way)?
I removed my nVidia Display drivers in safe mode and reinstalled, the problem persist. I reset my PS settings... same problem.It works only in Photoshop 32bits.
On Windows 7, R-clicking on an image shows "Open With" CS6 but only 64 bit opens. How to also have 32bit as a choice? Since the majority of my plugins only work on 32bit I find using 64bit unfortunately useless. Hence I wold like to know if it is possible to right-click on asn image with explorer and have it open the 32bit version.
I want to prepare my images in PS CS6 for print. I have read several articles that TIFF files print best since they do not lose any information but sometimes you can barely see the difference from a TIFF to a JPEG. However, I have also been told by a professional wedding photographer that you should always give your clients JPEGS since it is such a universal file format. I noticed on websites like CVS photo or Shutterfly they do not even accept TIFF files.
what file settings are best when printing JPEGS?I would normally save a file as the following:
- JPEG (quality 12/baseline optimized) - 16-bit - 300 dpi - 3000x the longest side - RGB color space
However, when I use the 'Image Processor' in PS to save all of my open files as JPEGs, it always saves them as 8-bit, sRGB color space. I have have a few concerns with this..
- Do JPEGs have to be 8-bit? If so, is this ok for printing? I have heard 16-bit is best. - Shouldn't print files be RGB color space? NOT sRGB? - Does the dpi matter?
Is there any easy way to change the auto settings when saving as a JPEG in the 'Image Processor'? Or maybe I could create an action for saving? Although, I have tried this and it never seems to work properly.
I have created many images for my new website and they all look crisp and clean in .psd format but when i save them to .gif they become slightly jagged around the edges which are not straight.
I have tried .png format but this has a mask over the image when viewed on the site. Also .jpg images are to big for websites i thought?
What is the best image format and if it is .gif which i have been previously informed to use how do i stop the rounded edges from becoming jagged?
i cant save an animated gif in image ready. when i try to save as...it will only let me save as a psd file, and when i try to save optimized...it will only let me save as a jpg.
I have an image loaded in PS which has transparancy. I have tried saving it in GIF format - transparancy looks great. But I do not see an option to save TGA file with transparancy.
What do I need to do to save the images in its perfect shape especially perfect circle? In Photoshop its shape was perfect but after saving the images in image format its shape become horrible..?
I already tried different image format but the image loses its right shape.
I am attempting to convert a proprietary image format to a dng file. What value do I use for the PhotometricInterpretation in my main image if it came from a black and white camera?
When printing in Orgnizer in Elements 11 the printout is as selected,but in Editor the image in Portrait format is always printed out smaller than selected e.g 15 x 10 cm image prints out as 10 x 9 cm. There is no 'Print Preview' facility available
I'm trying to "transform" an autocad drawing into an image format file, but I only can get the image that is in the main window, never the whole drawing. How to get the whole drawing and convert it to an image format file.
I am working on a 3' x 10' banner with 300dpi in Photoshop and it takes all of my time to do the extra tools to do, and it takes 10 minutes to save it or more. I have powerbook and CS6 on me. I put the highest memory in Photoshop preference. So I am bearing to work with it for hours for one small assignment, but why does it takes so long? is there a better way to do to save time and speed to make the poster banner to look greater than life? even in 200 dpi?
Cs2 has a picture package program that you can format a photo 1-5x7 +2-4x6 8 wallets and Manny more on to a 8.5x11 sheet of photo paper does cs4 have that same app.
I saw in one of the vids prior to CS4's release that thew picture package feature was changing, but I can't seem to locate it anyplace...I checked help, but it says to go to file/automate/picture package... picture package doesn't appear in my menus...
