how to scan an image directly into Elements 12 (for Mac). Just "upgraded" from 6 and can find no answers other than to go to Apple menu, scan in with Preview or Image Capture, save to desktop, then retrieve with Elements.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using a Mac Pro Quadcore with Snow Leopard version 10.6.8 and want to scan photos straight into Ps CS4 version 11.0.2 using a Canon Canoscan LIDE 100.
BUT when I go to Import there is no TWAIN option, there is only: Variable Data Sets (grayed out), Video Frames to Layers, Anti-Alised PICT, PICT Resources and Notes (grayed out).
I right click on Adobe Photoshop CS4 inside the Ps CS4 folder to bring up "Get Info" and click the check box that states "Open using Rosetta" BUT when I click open the Ps icon to open it Ps crashes straight away. I click "Reopen" and it crashes straight away. Un tick the Rosetta check box and Ps opens fine.
I assumed this was Apples problem because Rosettas is their program but after walking it through the Apple care operator and following his instructions to download a PowerPC version of VLC (which started up fine without doing a thing)to see if Rosetta was automatically installed, it worked fine, I was told that it's an Adobe problem.
Then I downloaded the TWAIN plugin and dropped it into the import-export folder and NOTHING!
The scanner works with Snow Leopards native Image Capture so it's not the scanner. Except that the scanner buttons dont seem to work when they used to on a MacBook. But here on the Mac Pro I cant find anything within the Ps menus that resembles "permission" to scan.
I need to do a lot of photo correction/remove blurred/restoration and read that it's better to scan the old photos straight into Ps to ensure no quality is lost during the scan. Regardless if this 100% true I still should be able to scan straight into Ps. I mean the CS4 package + Mac cost enough.
So I just finally updated my OS and my Photoshop and just encountered something I wasn't expecting. I have an Epson GT15000 scanner(big one with a feeder) I installed all the drivers and everything and the scanner works fine, but I can't seem to open the scanner from Photoshop to scan directly into the program. I can open the scanner independently and scan it to a saved file and then open it in photoshop. But it only has limited file type options so I'm basically forced to save it as one file so that I can then open it in photoshop and resave it as something else which is kinda a rediculous in between step and also leaves me with extra files that need to be deleted. Since the scanner itself hasn't changed and still functions the same otherwise I'm assuming it's because I'm using a new version of Photoshop. I'm also assuming that I actually can scan in the program, just not in the way that I'm used to. I used to go to import, and the scanner would appear on the menu for me to select it.

Is there a way to do it in Photoshop or do I look for another app in CS4 for that purpose?
If your scanner manufacturer does not support scanning in 64-bit mode, or you have issues scanning with TWAIN, you can scan into Photoshop CS6 using Apple’s ImageKit technology, which is built into Photoshop CS6, does not need a plug-in to be installed, and provides access to a large number of scanners.
That doesn't work with my Epson Perfection V350 Photo. I wonder if it actually works with any scanner. With Photoshop CS6 have wiped out many scanners that don't have 64-bit compliant drivers, why doesn't Adobe connect with Apple's Image Capture app? Why doesn't the V350 work with the ImageKit technology alllegedly part of Photoshop CS6?
How to use Image Capture to scan slides?
I have an Epson Perfection 4870 scanner.
I"m running Lion 10.7.4 and the version of Image Capture is 6.1.
Or what is the best scanning software to mesh with my Epson Perfection 4870 scanner?
I received a TIF image with 5 pages built in to the single image. When I open it in PS CS it does this Pixel Aspect Ratio thing. Which seems to be fine, but I can't figure out how to view the other pages in the TIF. Since Adobe (I think), owns the TIF format as well as PSD, I assume PS has a function to not only SEE and EDIT multi-page TIF files, but also CREATE them.
So Question 1 is, how do I handle multi-page TIF documents? For reading, editing and creating them? A tutorial or help page or another site, whatever is fastest for you guys. I can't find the functions. Or recommend another app to turn 5 TIFs into a SINGLE document would be fine also.
-------------------
Second question is. I have an older scanner that is on it's way out. I have black and white text documents I need to scan and sign and E-mail. Problem is, my scanner WON'T scan in black and white! The page either comes out blank white or as black and white stripes. I CAN scan as a color, or greyscale image.
Now then, let's say I scan this doc as greyscale, as a JPG.
I open the JPG file in PS. Now the page is not B/W to begin with. The whole of the document has an off-white Grey hue to it. I want to make sure it has solid text (no gradients) because the original multi-page TIF is this way. And I want the background to be solid white and text solid black. When it first comes into PS it is greyscale with gradients on the text and a non-white color across the whole image.
How can I convert this to B/W and have good looking black text on white? Plus how do I take these five scans after converting them, and turn them back into a multi-page TIF like the original?
The other thing to note is, that I am amazed about. The original 5page TIF is only 134KB. But even with all my editing I can get as low as a single, ONE page TIF at 80KB. How in the world did they compress so far and still look so nice with so many pages!
I am hoping to edit these docs, convert to b/w and put back in a 5 page TIF, and not be far off from the original file size.
-----------------
What I have tried to far is messing with the "Mode". Changing to duotone and other stuff in that menu. I've used magic eraser to try to remove the background (but still looks like crap in and around fonts).
I've used the hue/saturation tools but that doesn't leave crisp lettering.
I can accept "some" baddies around the fonts. Seeing as how it is scanned. But one of my attempts produces pretty nasty looking fonts! Like so:
This is 516% zoom. You can see "something" needs to change to make this clearer. And artifacts still show up here and there as black dots around the document. Somehow I got it to be b/w.
