Photoshop :: Trying To Print From TIFF But It Is Adding Dither?

Oct 12, 2012

I am trying to create a Chuck Close style image for a Fine Arts class. I created the base image by resizing my image to 4 px sq and 12" by 12". The image looks great when saved, meaning the pixels are sharply defined from one another. However, when I go to print, a dithering of a sort is added to the image and one pixel fades into another. I need precise sizes because I am actually gluing smaller images to the base as pixels. I would use the mosaic function, but the sizing never turns out right.

Photoshop :: Error: Cannot Initiate Photoshop Because Photoshop Cannot Create Any More Windows

Nov 2, 2008

Version: Photoshop CS (1)

Computer: Pentium 2.4 gHz dual core

4 Gigs Ram

Nvidia 7950 video card Win XP Home

I started to get this strange error with my Photoshop when making a new document in Photoshop and got the following error: "cannot initiate Photoshop because Photoshop cannot create any more windows".

I thought the easiest thing to do would be to reinstall (Photoshop needs reinstalling extremely often unfortunately), but now when I try and open the program it just give an alert beep and closes back up. Even though I rarely use ImageReady, I opened that up to check and it does the same behavior.

Photoshop :: 'save To Web' From Photoshop To Image Ready Changes Original's Color Before Optimizin

May 28, 2004

Can anyone tell me what color settings I need to set in photoshop in order to avoid this from happening? It only happens once in a while and I don't know what I've done to fix it or screw it up. What happens is that when I'm in photoshop and I do a "save for web" my document jumps to image ready and when viewing '2 up' for optimization purposes and comparison, I realize that the original view is actually duller in color and does not look like the original in photoshop. The blacks are definitely not as black.

Photoshop :: Can Photoshop CS Give Smooth Lines To Older MacPaint Clip Art?

Jun 7, 2004

when I got my first Macintosh IICX and all of my MacPaint clip art. I don't want to get rid of the clip art because since I'm still using a black ink printer and not upgrading to a color one, the clip art looks nice in newsletters and the like.

Up until this time I had been using SuperPaint which had the New Superbits editing plug-in to refine the pictures so they had the smoother and cleaner lines instead of looking jagged. With my new computer and printer, I'm also getting Photoshop CS packaged with Adobe Creative Suite Premium, which I have never used before. Since I have not received my order yet, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether Photoshop has the capability of improving the older MacPaint clip art like SuperPaint did with the New SuperBits editing plug-in. Over the past two days, I have been trying like crazy to back-up my pictures with SuperPaint and then re-saving them with Graphic Converter. It's been so incredibly slow that I thought I would go ahead and ask you, the experts, if Photoshop can also improve the quality of my older MacPaint clip art or if I should continue to back-up my clip art like I have been doing.

Photoshop :: Error :: 'Could Not Complete Your Request Because Photoshop Does Not Recognise This Type Of File'

Jun 17, 2008

I have just got back from the Elbow gig and pulled the images off the card. They load up in Bridge but don't have actual picture thumbnails. They are named correctly, ie: IMG_3483.CR2 but they won't open!? Error message says 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file'

I could see them on the back of the camera.

mac users... i did a software update the other day and I noticed that there was an update for ACR. Could it have been something to do with that? And why can't I find ACR in my Applications?

Photoshop :: Adobe Photoshop Hacking For Working Special Characters?

Oct 30, 2012

of Adobe Photoshop v6.0.1 (quite old, I know, but it do all I want and on my old HW I did not plan/want to use any more recent version, because they are HUGE and with just a little preferences trick, I did not need to reinstall my PS - ever ), yet as Czech user, I need my software to type some special characters as well. These are looking like this:
 
[URL]...

Now the only problem is, that some of them PS just refuse to type. Seven small and seven caps are just wrong. See the line "for PS:"...
 
I battled the problem even by editing the fonts itsels, because that seems to work with Adobe Illustrator, yet this also cause the edited fonts to be useless in another programs. So I looked deeply and in the Adobe settings in directory Fonts / Reqrd are directory CMaps and perhaps editing the character map used will be better and usable solution? how to do it or even determine with file from the 96 files in the CMaps directory are right now used by Adobe Photoshop?

Photoshop :: Photoshop Soft Edge Tool Feature Missing

Mar 21, 2007

the soft edge feature of the eraser and the brush no longer work. I can go into the pallet and choose a soft edge eraser or brush, but it comes up hard edge. When I try to use the marquee box with a feather to get a soft edge, I again get a hard edge. I've used this technique a lot, so I think I'm doing the method properly. I have removed the preference files a number of times and have trashed the old Photoshop and reinstalled Photoshop 3 or 4 times,

Photoshop :: Reset Settings On Softwares Such As Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Etc?

Dec 29, 2008

I am working on someone elses computer and the Software settings are different. The old owner does not use this computer anymore. The swatches are set and I would like it to function how it usually does, etc. I mean, even the transparent swatch on the tool bar is not there anymore, so when I use the pen path tool, I get these white and black fills which makes it difficult for me to see the path I am meant to be following.

How do I reset Photoshop so that I can customise it the way I want it? Reinstalling the softwares is not an option.

I would like to reset Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, etc.

Photoshop Elements :: Can Open TIFF Groups Created In Photoshop CC?

Mar 17, 2014

A co-worker needs to be able to access certain files that I have created in Photoshop CC. These files are saved as TIFFs, and as part of my workflow, I have just about everything in Groups. She currently has Elements 10 on her system, but that absolutely does not permit access to the Groups and the components within. Because of her job duties, I cannot necessarily justify adding her to the CC account since she does not need PS, AI, ID, or any of the other applications as I do. However, I can easily justify upgrading her to Elements 12...provided it does what we need it to.

Lightroom :: No Longer Connecting To Photoshop / When Choose To Edit In Photoshop

Apr 16, 2013

any editing I do in photoshop will now seem to need to be manually added to Lightroom...which I do not even want to contemplate. When I rightclick on an image and select Edit in --> Photoshop CS6, nothing happens...Photoshop does not open as it used to. I'd thought it might be Nik Collection trial or OnOne photo suite trial I'd installed, but I uninstalled both and restarted my computer, and the problem still exists. I'm using the current creative cloud version of both lightroom and photoshop.

Photoshop :: Color Differences Between Photoshop And Saved File

Jan 21, 2006

I currently use Photoshop CS2, but I also encountered this problem on Photoshop Elements 4.0.

Whenever I am working in Photoshop, my blue looks purple, my red looks orange, but my green seems ok, however when I save it, the colour is different. I know it is not the gamma because that affects everything, not just how Photoshop looks (I'm pretty sure). If someone could help me and tell me how much of a loser I am and give me some simple solution, that would be great because it's a pain not being able to see what it is really going to look like without saving it and looking at that.

Here is what I am talking about, a screenshot and the saved .png: ....

Photoshop :: Color In Image Viewed In Photoshop Looks Different Than In Browser

May 21, 2007

I made a graphic, hosted it on a site, and looked at it in a browser. For some reason, the colors in the image look darker than how it does in Photoshop.

What do I need to do to make them both look alike or maybe I should be asking, "How do I make Photoshop display the color it will show as in a browser?"

If it's any help, I'm using a working space of "Adobe RGB 1998." Is this correct for web design work?

Photoshop :: Pasting Live Trace From Illustrator To Photoshop

Jul 17, 2009

I used illustrator to live trace an image and then copy it to photoshop and paste as a shape layer. Usually, it fills in the paths with the foreground color and it's exactly what I want. For some reason, this time though, when i paste as a shape layer, the entire selection becomes the foreground color and when the layer is simplified it's just a big block with the same color as the foreground color. Why is this working on some of my traces and not others?
