Photoshop :: How To Create Action To Insert Hundreds Of Different Numbers For Limited Edition Prints

Mar 7, 2013

I sell limited edition prints of a run of between 350 and 500.

I am trying to get it set up so that my signature and the print number is included as part of the print. Here is an example:
 
You'll see at bottom left there is my signature and underneath is is the print number e.g. 110/350 (this is legible when printed at 18x12" size).

Inserting the signature and the "/350" is easy since it only needs to be done once per image.

The difficulty comes with inserting the actual print number e.g. "110"
 
At the moment I have 0 to 9 written out and scanned in as separate numbers. So to make "110" I use the "1" digit twice, plus the "0" digit. I.e. I haven't written out 1 to 500 and scanned them in all as separate numbers, I've just done the 10 digits and use those 10 digits to make all the different numbers I need.
 
Is there a way to create an action that will create say 350 JPEG copies of the original file, each one with its own unique print number inserted? (And ideally automatically saved with the print number as its file name!)

Photoshop :: Create An Action: Insert Square Box In

Jun 29, 2009

I have a problem with the Actions of Photoshop, I wish you can help me: I need to put a square box (or a point, some kind of mark) in the corner of the bottom-left in hundreds of images, so I think an Action is the best way to do it but I don't know how can I do it, because I need that the mark can adapt itself to the size of each image: it have to be the 5% of the size of the original image.

3ds Max :: Insert Vertex Crashes 2013 Student Edition?

Mar 6, 2014

I'm currently working on a design in 3ds Max 2013 Student Edition.  When I first found out about 3d modelling, the creativity peaked my interest greatly and since Mesh became available in Second Life and Inworldz, I have since been self teaching myself from Max tutorials.
 
2 years ago approximately, I downloaded the 3ds Max 2013 from the Autodesk site and upon installing it, the program crashed at 96% faithfully everytime.  When I asked how to resolve this, I was told to download the trial version and put the code to authenticate the software, it then went from 30 day trial to student edition.
 
I have since been using 3ds Max 2013 updating the FBX converter to work with Second Life and Inworldz making low poly designs.
 
Now my current design has 3587 polys and 6,239 vertices, when I move close to my design and select edge, then insert vertex, 3ds Max says it encountered an error and gives me the option to save my scene or cancel to close Max.  100% of the time, if I say save scene, my scene is automatically corrupt and I have to go to a previous save.
 
No I am not entitled to install the PU's (Patch Updates) since its a student edition and I don't have the money to purchase 3ds Max 2013.

Photoshop :: Create Action To Copy Channel Name Text And Insert Into Channel In CS5?

Jul 26, 2013

I am a screen printer and I print my separations from Photoshop. I routinely work with multi channel files or RGB files with additional spot color channels. I have created actions to place my registration marks, re-size images, etc to get ready to print but I manually have to create the text labels for each screen if they are missing from the original artwork.

The files I work with have channels named as "Base White, Red, Green, 284 Blue" etc indicating the ink color. What i would like to be able to do is click an action that would copy the text from the channel name and insert it into a separate or each/all channels near the top of the file so that when I print each positive it has a corresponding label for ink color.

I am not sure if this is even possible, and I am limited on my knowledge when it comes to actions and have pretty much got lucky in the past getting them to do what I want without unnecessary steps.

On my registration target action it creates a new channel with each individual reg mark then combines them into one separate channel in which I just copy the contents and select all the ink channels and fill with black to make them appear, i'm happy with the steps it takes as it isn't too much trouble and if this could do the same with labels I would be happy with that.

Photoshop :: Create Hyperlinks To Hundreds Of Photo Titles To View

Mar 8, 2013

I'm doing it in Excel, but it's a monstrous job to create hyperlinks to hundreds of photo titles to view them, one, by one, by one.I can't automate it in Excel for mac.
 
I've tried automate and macros, but none will simply:take the selected photo-title from the list, copy and paste it into a search box, find the photo, select it, and generate a hyperlink.
 
I'd like to find some software that would make it possible to link up photo titles to their files to view in Preview without doing it one by one. All the photos are in the same folder with names like 0001.jpg, 0002.jpg.  It ought to be easier than this.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Create A Macro For Change The Plot Styles In Hundreds Layouts?

Oct 4, 2012

I have (unfortunately) the necessity to modify into some files (which are used as models) the print style preset.

These files, which are necessary for the realization of electrical diagrams, have inside hundreds of layout.

Each layout set default printing parameters, so as "Laser b/n.pc3," as the paper size "A4" scale "Scale to Fit", and plot style "Schemi.ctb", etc. ..

Is there a way to create a macro (a field unknown to me) or something similar, to automatically change in all the default layout, for example, the printer "Colori.pc3" and the print style in "Schemi_colori.ctb "?

I am playing with the book module and I love it. Hwever, I wonder whether there is a possibility to automatically create captions that show the date of the creation of a picture. More generally any subset of the Exif data would be welcome. This is possible for slideshows, but I could not figure out how to do this with book pages.

Edge Animate CC :: Insert Action Triggers To Individual Layers?

Aug 24, 2013

I like being able to loop the animation in Edge so it will play continually.  But coordinating an edge animation with a number of different layers for each object makes me want to be able to loop each layer.   Right now it seems you can only insert an action trigger in the general timeline.  Is it possible to insert action triggers to individual layers?
 
For example, I made this animation for my illustrator portfolio page [url]....
 
I have set up layers for each color, and layers for each texture.  Right now it cycles through them in a regular pattern. But I'd like to set individual loops for each color and texture layer so that the animation varies a little.

Photoshop :: How To Create An Action

Jul 23, 2013

I have a photoshop file with several layers...about 100. I want to put each layers into it's own group. The name of the group must be the same as the name of the layer.
 
I tried creating an action to do this but it did not work right. It only works for one layer selected individually. If I select multiple layers, then it forms nested groups. How do I create this action? I am using adobe photoshop cs6 ( I think) , windows 7.

InDesign :: IDCS6 - Create Tables With Large Whole Numbers And Small Fractions?

Feb 20, 2014

I have a lot of engineering data, dimensions, etc, to enter into an existing IDCS6 Table. I need whole numbers to display full size, but fractions to be small size. I know I can use Open Type and select the Fractions option for each individual fraction, but that would take forever.
 
How do I create a style (or whatever) that will allow me to just type in the numbers and have them automatically apply small formatting to the fraction portion of the number whenever it sees a "/"?
  
Along a similar line, I was trying to copy table data from a PDF document from Acrobat X Pro and paste that into an IDCS6 table, so each cell is populated by the appropriate cell data from the PDF file, but didn't have any success. That would really save me a lot of time, because I have many complete tables in PDF format. The data is not protected in the PDF, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to bring it over to IDCS6.

On a Mac, OSX 10.8.5.

Photoshop :: How To Create Action / Batch

Feb 8, 2012

I have 200 tiffs in one folder (each tiff is named 'image 1-200') all without an alpha channel.

I have 200 different tiffs in another folder (named 'luma matte 1-200').

I've have copied the first images of the 'luma matte 1.tiff' (a black and white image) and pasted it into a newly created alpha layer in 'the image 1.tiff' channel window.

I save this out as a new tiff called 'composite 1' and it works in the way I require it to work.

How would I automate this process rather than having to do it individually for all the 200 files. I'm not sure if this can be done with a series of actions/batch? I dont want to use After Effects luma key as this isn't giving me the correct results.

Photoshop :: Create Action To Position Text

Jan 31, 2009

Anyway, my quest is to create an action in CS3 that will position and size text (eg. center) as a watermark in any size image. Currently I am creating a copyright symbol, then a text layer and then another text layer and either grouping them in the action or merging them down as created to be in one layer. This works fine as long as I run the action on another file of the same size but when it comes across a different size file the components are all over the place and differently sized.

I gotta admit I don't know a lot about text though. Just thought someone may be able to help me with this one so thanks to all who contribute.

For ex, I have a series of steps, then need to save the image to 2 different sizes/resolutions, with a different name. So I want the action to run, stop where I type in the name for the hi-res, continue, then stop where I type in the name for the lo-res, then finish the steps desired.

Photoshop :: Using The Same Vignette For Hundreds Of Images

Jul 12, 2004

how I can do something that was previously done mechanically by photographers: Vignetting all images on a roll. For school photography, a vignette device used to be placed in front of the camera lens to darken the edges of the final print. Now I can create a vignette in photoshop but only on one image at a time. How do I create a vignette that I can somehow automate to end up on all 300 school children's images before I send the files to the lab for printing?
