Photoshop Elements :: 8 - Auto-crop Multiple Pictures On Scanner?
Jan 23, 2013
I have over 90 years worth of pictures I have to scan. 1 at a time is... well... on option I don't want to use. I am new to PS. Will the program allow me to put multiple pics on my flatbed scanner, have them automaticly split up, then put in a folder???
I am receiving a bunch of raw scans and the first thing I need to to with it is cropping them into individual images. We are talking hundreds of photos, with 6+ images on each raw scan. Doing it manually takes time and might not be 100% accurate. One should think some kind of software was made able to do this automatically (PS plugins?)
I suspect I *might* have to resort to something other than Adobe * - but in desperation I am trying this forum anyway..! It would be GREAT to be able to just do this repetetive work in one batch.
I am looking to crop some pictures and make the background transparent. This is one of my pictures below. The problem I am coming across is with it being see through, I cant seem to just pick and grab the blue rods, golf balls and clips they are sitting on. It seems to want to pick up everything including the gray background. I heard photoshop would make this possible. is this true? Also, what program would be the best for me? I want to spend the littlest i can. I am looking at the adobe photoshop elements and premier movie element 10. Would this work? Any good video describing how to crop and make the background transparent.
I crop a picture and when I print it white lines appear on the print . When I print the uncropped version of the same picture I get no lines . How can I get it to stop.
Why can't i scan multiple pictures in Photoshop 12 and have saved as individual files ? I use Photshop 10 with no problems. Scanner used is a EPSON V700.
I have a logo watermark x 2 which I need to add to a number of pictures, is there a way I can do this in one go or without manual input. I aware of the function that allows a text watermark to placed on an image while processing multiple pictures. I am elements 9 user.
I've noticed that when I open some PDFs that have crop marks, Photoshop only opens the are within the crop marks - therefore cropping out any bleed on the original PDF.
Is there a good fast way to use Photoshop CS6's crop tool to crop to a particular width/height without having to go through the Size and Resolution dropdown?
With the crop tool selected, if I punch "10" and "50" into the two boxes next to Unconstrained, then Photoshop CS6 doesn't interpret this as 10pc wide by 50pc high. Instead, for a landscape-format photo it comes out as a 50x10 crop, and for a portrait image it comes out as 10x50.
Selecting "Size and Resolution" from the crop dropdown appears to solve this, but it is slower, since you have to dance through a modal dialog box. Is there a way to get the CS5-like behavior from the crop tool? Use Classic Mode does not appear to affect this.
I recently scanned all my print photographs, three images per scanned TIFF file.
I want to utilize Photoshop's Auto Crop and Center feature found in File > Automate.
However, I can't figure out how automate more than once.
I have opened many .tiff files, and when I use Auto Crop/Center, it creates the three images. I can't seem to save them with Image Processing or Batch and needs to be done manually.
I have a ton of photos so I'm hoping Photoshop has a way to do this.
Ideally, I'd want to open a reasonable amount of Tiff files, execute something that would crop them all, and save them all into JPG's.
I am looking for a way to automate the process of cropping an image to a rectangle that precisly fits the outermost non-white pixels of an image. Ideally I would be able to specify the white tolerance. Is there a plugin that does this? Or a series of steps that can be rolled into an action?
I have used Photoshop for several years, but I didn't take the time to lean allot of what it can do.I'm going through Lynda.com videos now and starting to get a little better understanding.
I bought some vector eps files from Shutterstock. Most of these vectors are a bunch of smaller image elements.(For Instance Icons)What I would like to do is to find a way to batch crop all of the layers out of the eps and into png files.Of course they would need slightly different names.
I have seen where you can do something similar, but the smaller images are on a full size transparent background. I would prefer that they are auto cropped.I have the full CS6 Through Adobe Creative Cloud. So I can use illustrator for part of this if needed.
I have RAWs from my Panasonic GH3 and the files seen in Bridge (CC) oder ACR (8.1) are different in viewing angle compered to the same file opened in other RAW converters. It looks like they are cropped and somehow corrected. But I made no setup for this and can not change it. Sometimes a little bit more area is not bad and I want to access this area but with ACR I can´t.
What is the prosedure to import img from scanner to photoshop elements? I'm used to PH CS, and there i have a choise to import scanner, but that is not present in PH elements?
I need to take a logo and blend it in with another picture. I also want the picture of leaves to drape a little over the letters of the logo. How do I do this? I can't figure out how to crop or how to add a 2nd picture to my screen.
Just got lightroom 3 for Christmas. I cannot figure it out and it's a headache so far. How am I supposed to set up the auto import to the My Pictures folder when I am supposed to chose an empty folder for Lightroom to watch? I must be misunderstanding something because I imagine that everyone who buys Lightroom already has photos in their My Pictures folder.
I have recently installed Photoshop CS6. I already had Photoshop Elements 8 on my PC. Before installing CS6, I could quite happily scan photos etc via my scanner, from within Elements 8, but now when I go 'File > Get Photos and Videos > From Scanner' within Elements 8 (with Photoshop CS6 not open at the time, incidentally), I get a message saying 'Software for this device could not be launched. The device is not connected or is busy'. I would like to be able to scan from either Photoshop applications.
I've just upgraded from Elements 4 to 11 using Mac OS 10.6 Previously, when I wanted to import an image from my Canon 8600F Scanner I went to File,Import,Canoscan 8600 and the Twain driver window appeared. No problem.Now with 11 this doesn't happen. It doesn't happen with either Editor or Organizer. A search on these pages shows a similar problem with Elements 10. I've carried out this procedure but it doesn't work. Why not? What is the point of this programme if it won't import from a scanner or am I missing something?
I used PSE11 before and i use a scanner (canon 4200F) to import some old pictures and other documents. Now i have installed PSE12, but i was surprised that my scanner is not detected, so i cannot import anymore with my scanner.
Elements 10 Organizer no longer recognizes HP Photosmart Plus scanner after attempt to install Inspiration upgrade. Inspiration would not recognize it, so I removed it and returned to PSE 10. What can I do?
I am editing old pictures. To save time I am scanning four pictures at a time. I'm using the marquee tool to crop each picture into their own layer via right click method and choosing "Layer via copy." After I'm done doing this for all four pictures, I have to hide all but one layer, trim the project to the picture size, save it. Then I undo the trim, and start over for the next picture to save.
Is there any easier way to save each cropped section as their own picture/project at the size of their crop without effecting the other pictures? Was wondering if there was a way to crop the portions I want out but instead of copy to layer method, I could just create a new project with that cropped picture?
