Photoshop :: Action To Make Kodak Plugins Possible For Macintosh CS6
Aug 22, 2012
Take action to make Kodak Plug Ins possible for Macintosh CS6.Aparently, they are unable to integrate them into the new version of Photoshop without your participation.
be aware that our Plug-Ins are 32-bit. CS5 allowed for our Plug-Ins to be installed in 32-bit mode on the Mac, but this was not offered for CS6. You might check with Adobe to see if they will offer this in future.We are currently evaluating the possibility of updating our Kodak Professional Image Enhancement Plug-Ins to 64-bit, but have no definite plans as of now. Please periodically visit our website for any updates to our plug-in availability.
I've been using my trial of Photoshop CS6 Extended for 10 days now. I have run into a peculiar problem - when saving a file Photoshop does not display any sort of icon. No thumbnail, no generic, nothing. It's not a huge problem, I can always open the image but not by double-clicking on the icon: it's just not there.
I downloaded a sweet font FFXSpiran.ttf. As we all know, Macontosh reads dfont and so on.
Well, magically, the font works great in Painter IX, but will not show up in PSCS. I used my FontBook to disable quite a few fonts(that's what they said to do at Adobe.Com), well, it didn't work, or I wouldn't be here.
I can select it from the font menu in the program, but when I go to type anything, it's blank. When I move away from the text layer, it will display the letters I typed, but it's still blank. It's quite frustrating.
i have been trying to create mac desktop icons using the "Photoshop PICT Resource File" and it works all right, but i lose any transparency one the image is saved.
I have tried using various icon programs (IconBuilder, etc) but they never seem to work for me.
Since i am on a Mac, standerd icon programs just dont cut it, because im looking to create high-quality icons like those found on Pixel Girl (a great resource for both Mac + Windows Icons).
I am far from a beginner, but i can't seem to find any tutuorials that apply to this topic.
I have PS CS3 on Win XP SP2, 2 GB RAM, nVidia geForce 8500GT with updated drivers. Until 2 days ago everything was perfect (smooth movement and action in PS CS3). Suddenly every move I make (draw a simple line, move or resize window, painting with paint brush etc) become very choppy and fragmentated and CPU raise instant to 100%. I uninstalled PS CS3 and reinstalled again, but with no luck. Any ideea about what is happening here? Thank you! PS: Other programs like Fireworks, Flash, Illustrator etc work very nice and smooth with maximum 20-30% CPU usage.
I had to do a clean install (Archive and Install) recently on my Macintosh (450 MHz PowerPC G4, 1.25 GB SDRAM, OSX 10.4.11) and found afterwards that the drag-and-drop capabilities of Photoshop (CS2, version 9.0.2) were no longer available. In addition to this,
I'm now not able to edit original graphics in Photoshop through the links palette in InDesign (CS2, version 4.0.5). I've searched through the Previous System folder that Archive and Install left, but don't know enough to recognize the software component(s) necessary to solve this problem.
Make Action to Batch process PDF to JPEGs saved for the web
I have about 80-100 pdf's that I want to change from 300dpi to 100dpi indexed color and save as gif.
If I create an action Convert pdf to gif with steps Mode > Indexed Color Save as gif
running this action as a batch only opens the files. I am left with files open in RGB mode, not indexed color. This means the batch processor did not run any of the steps in my action. (Yes, I did make sure in the batch dialog that I specified my action set.)
Here is my action in the action menu.
pdf to gif
Convert mode To: indexed color mode Pallette: adaptive Colors: 64 Forced: Black and white Without transparency Matte: None
Save As: Compuserve GIF With Interlace In: ...
Here are my steps, using a test folder with 2 pdf's:
1. Launch Photoshop
2. File > Automate > Batch
3. Batch dialog: Set [my set] Action [pdf to gif] Source: Folder Choose: [my test folder with 2 pdf's] Destination: Folder Choose: [my testgif folder, empty] File naming: Document name + extension Errors: Log errors to file File: [my testgif folder, empty]/error.txt
4. OK
5. Set resolution to 100dpi.
6. Click OK for 1st pdf.
7. Click OK for 2nd pdf.
Actual result:
Both files open and stay open. Both files are still RGB mode. No gif's in testgif folder. errors.txt reads:
Start Batch
End Batch
Expected result: Files closed (possibly I have to add a Close step) 2 gifs in the testgif folder.
Using an action of Save for Web in place of Mode > Indexed color also did not create any gifs.
I'm wondering whether the PDF dialog on open is throwing a wrench into the works.
I am trying to create an action that will make multiple thumbnails of the same image and apply actions to each one to create a kind of contact sheet. I want to do this in order to see what different saved adjustments will look like on the same picture.
Can I rename my Macintosh HD Hard Drive? I had a recent problem with After Effects not loading. It's a brand new iMac and had a clean install of Adobe Production Premium CS6. I do have a few plugins installed that I purchased from Video Co-Pilot and Mocha AE. But I can't imagine those plug-ins were the culprit. However, I did rename my Hard Drive prior to the not-loading problem.  Could renaming my Macintosh HD have had an effect on that?Â
'm trying to make an action to automate the saving of one photoshop file to multiple different jpegs. Basically what I am doing is producing team pictures from a psd template. I will do player #1 then save as #1jpeg, #2 save as #2jpeg, etc up to 20 players. I tried to make an action but it won't allow me to insert a file name. It would be straight forward if I could get a stop in there. how I could automate this
i cannot scan photos from my kodak printer from photshop..it is reading an old printer that is no longer installed...kodak states it is with the software from adobe?
I have been emailed the file of a painting by someone (on the other side of the world) who needs me to print some good quality copies of it on my R3880. On one edge of this is a strip titled 'Kodak color control patches' which is to enable me to obtain a good colour match on my reproductions. Any easy to understand click-by-click instructions as to how I use these patches. Also do I need any further software or hardware? I am using Photoshop CS5 with Windows.
I have some old Kodak PhotoCD files (.PCD) that I would like to open in PS CS5. After searching the KB and forums for info, I found the file "Photo CD.8BI" in the Goodies folder on my CS3 disk and copied it into C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS5Plug-insFile Formats. Unfortunately, PS CS5 still will not open the .PCD files.  I could install CS3 again and use the Photo CD.8BI plug-in there, but I'd rather not install CS3 if I don't have to.  Any way to open/convert .PCD files in CS5, or is the .PCD format so old that it can't be done? (I'm using Windows XP Home.)
The photograph I am working on has both a Kodak Grey Scale and a Colour strip attached, however the values as they appear on screen are not correct. How can I correct the colour profile to match the Kodak standard?
Since upgrading to CS3 I am no longer able to access photos stored on a Kodak Photo Disc. The Photo Disc format is pretty dated at this point, however my company has hundreds of discs containing professional photography stored in this format and we need access to the images.
The Kodak Photo CD seems to be obsolete these days, but I have a number of old Photo CDs from years ago, so I have an interest in converting the files to some other format in the best way possible. In trying to do so with Photoshop CS2, I've noticed some issues:
1. Highlights are washed out. This is not so bad when the highlights are in the sky and I just lose some cloud detail, but it's quite unpleasant when the highlights are in people's faces. When I try converting the files with Paint Shop Pro, results look somewhat inferior in other ways, but there's more detail in the highlights, so this seems to be a Photoshop problem.
2. Photoshop provides the option of 16-bit colour when importing from Photo CD, which looked good to me, so I used it. I've only just realized that, as far as I can tell, the Photo CD images contain only 8-bit colour information, so I've just been wasting space by saving large TIFF files with 16-bit colour. I wonder why Photoshop provides this useless option! Or does it have some purpose unknown to me?
Has anyone found a good way of converting Photo CD images that doesn't wash out the highlights?
When I load an image either a jpeg or psd file then make a layer copy I am unable to apply a preset action to this. Either a default action or one of my own on a Mac OSX running Lion. This did not present a problem in CS5 and I am wondering if I've missed something basic?
