I have scanned newspaper cuttings, stored them in My Albums. Opened each one in PS 5 increased contrast, edited out specs and marks etc, Saved, then in Slide Show the results were unreadable. Attempted to open again in PS and got the following dialoge box 'JPEG marker segment length is too short. The file may be trunkated or incomplete. Is there a way to recover or do I have to start again and will I get the same result.
While imaging with my Canon T1i last night with my astro club I took probably 75 or 80 pics. Halfway through the session, my battery low indicator came on, so I changed the battery but may not have turned off the camera....I can't remember.....as I continued to shoot and review the images, everything looked and worked fine.  When I returned home and got up this a.m. to review the pics, the last half could not be be opened.  I usually insert my SD card in my laptop to review first before I transfer them over. I kept getting this error on the last half of the images I took :" a jpeg marker segment length is too short. The file may be truncated or incomplete." Is there any way to recover and otherwise save these images?  By not turning the camera off while changing batteries, could that be the reason for the error message?
I have 2 workstations in my suite. Both Win7...both CS5.5 ver. 12.1.x64. My "old" box (Z400) can open the JPEG no problem....My "new" box (Z820) gives me the error.  I have copied the file a few different ways so I know it is not corrupt.
I saved a lot of files in CS3 as a jpeg file with the proper extension. I upgraded to CS5 and now when I want ot open these files i sometimes get a message that " an invalid JPEG marker type is found". IÂ can open hem in preview and in CS3 but not in CS5.
I have extensive photoshop files of early work and when attempting to open them, a warning, "could not complete because of unknown or invalid jpeg marker types found".How can these be saved or retrieved?
An associate of mine is having difficulty getting his website photos to work. As a graphic arts professional, with fourteen years of experience in Photoshop, I offered to help him. The JPEGs look fine on his laptop, but once transferred to the Web they don't display.
I downloaded several photo and got this error upon opening them in PhotoShop:
"Could not complete your request because a SOFn, DQT, or DHQ marker is missing before a JPEG SOS marker."
I am stymied in my efforts to unravel this error. It looks like this should be something that can be fixed and the files recovered.
A few things I noticed and learned about these photos: the guy who did them made batch thumbnails in Flash. Accompanying these files were a few MPEG files, and the pictures were taken on an older digital camera with a video recording feature. These photos were uploaded with WS_FTP from a Laptop. (I have used WS_FTP without an error from Windows 2000.) The last 4 out of 60 odd photos work fine. They are chronogically listed among the MPEG files. (These last 4 photos could have come from a different camera, but were all uploaded simultaneously).
I want to draw triangle in segment of polyline in segment direction.
I have target segment and center point of it:
 Polyline line = ...  LineSegment3d centerSegment = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex);  Point3d centerPosition = centerSegment.MidPoint;
I can find direction of this segment:
 Vector3d zaDirection = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex).Direction;
Next, I create list of points:
 List<Point3d> points = new List<Point3d>();  points.Add(centerPosition);  points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, +ZASize, 0)));  points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, -ZASize, 0)));
I'm using Photoshop CS3 in a macbook pro under windows XP. When I opened this photo, the objects look shorter than they did when I first created this composition using the same version/same release of PS CS3 that I'm using now in my old laptop (HP Compaq Presario X6000 running Win XP). How can I fix/eliminate this? Top photo: Dialogue box I get before image loads Bottom: objects (desk, chairs, characters) look shorter/fatter than they did previously
Im using a tablet. I want to make my brush stoke very very short. Previously, I would do this by setting the fade to a very small number. I think I used to set it to airbrush but possibly it worked in brush as well. (I cant even figure out how to select an airbrush now) How do I do this in 6?
I have CS6 extended. Â I need to pan and zoom over a still image to create a short video. I remember the process was to mark a track over the still, with points along this path that required time to transit and the degree of zoom. On playback, it was like a video.
Think of the still as a hillside shot with a road winding from top to bottom. The video captured a zoomed in frame of just the road. Eventually, at the bottom, the frame slowly zoomed out displaying most of the still. How do I do this?
When I use a brush or any of the clonehealing tools the brush start lagging when I do you short and quick strokes.   Longer and continuous strokes don't have any lagging going on.  I have reinstalled the driver and tried a few different versions as well but the issue persists. I also tried different settings for the Graphics Processor in preferences but no change.   I am on an Intuos5 L and before that I had the Intuos 3 A4 and I had the problems with that tablet as well.   I am on i5 iMac Quad-Core 2.5ghz, 32gb ram Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB - Mac OS X 10.7.5   Update:After a few testing I realized this lagging appears to happen only when I am on Dual monitor setup.   My main monitor is an Eizo CG222W I have Photoshop setup whereby all my tools and panels are on my iMac and the main window with the image is on my Eizo.When I only use my Eizo with tools and panels then the lagging disappears.
I have a problem with PhotoShop CC. I also tested PhotoShop CS5 and PhotoShop CS6, having the same problems (last versions of them). Plugins for PhotoShop are not installed.  My System:  Windows 7 64 Bit with SP1  (newest updates german version) Intel Core i7-4770k CPU 3.5 Ghz RAM:  16 GB DDR3 GPU: GeForce GTX 760 2048 MB MSI N760 TF 2GD5/OC MainBoard: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming  Monitor: Asus PB248Q   1920 x 1200  60 Hz  (connected with Display Port)  All Drivers (GPU, ChipSet of MainBoard) are up to date.  My Problem is that the Brush or rubber tool is 0,5 to 1 seconds slower than the mouse cursor. The stroke trails behind. But the brush tool still runs smooth and fluently. Its just slower than the mouse. When mouse stops moving, the brush catch up. The brush even trails behind when cursor is moving slow. When cursor is moving faster, sbrush also moves faster, but brush is never as fast as cursor. Only when cursor does not move, brush catch up.  This even happens when simple brushes for example simple round brush with 100 hardness and 10 pixel of size are used.When removing Smooting in brush settings, brush tool become much faster, but not as fast as cursor.This behaviour occurs in 64 and 32 Bit Version of PhotoShop.Also, GPU Settings was changed (Basic, Normal, Advanced), but without results.  When Aero-Surface in windows 7 is disabled, brush tool works much faster, but not smooth and fluently anymore.This also happens when I am working with a document containing only one single layer.I also tested all GPU Settings in PhotoShop (Basic, Normal and Advance), still the same problem.  PhotoShop uses 60% of my Ram (8793 MB)  The strange thing is: When I installed PHotoShop CS5 on my 8 years old computer with Windows XP, Brush tool with same settings was as fast as mouse cursor and it runs really smooth and fluently. The main difference is that my new Computer is using Windows 7, the old one uses Windows XP 32 Bit.  Old System:  Windows XP 32 Bit AMd Athlon X2  3700+ 2 GB RAM GeForce 7800 GTX  (connected with DVI to monitor)  Can it be that PhotoShop has problems with Aero Surface of Windows 7? Or with Windows 7 64 Bit?Â
We are scanning 9x9" B/W aerial photos as RGB, 24bit, 600 DPI on an epson 1640XL on a Dell precision workstation (1GB memory, P4 3GHz(i think)). we scan, and save as a JPG, without incident.
when we try to open it, we get the error - "Could not open X.jpg because an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found."
I tried reinstalling PS, as well as the twain scan driver. no luck. we tried scanning on another computer. the fact that we get the same error makes me think it might be the photos themselves, but what could be in an image that would cause this sort of corruption?
it only happens with certain photos, but there doesnt seem to be anything particular about the photos that would make it happen.
I need to create an authentic looking Texas historical marker in photoshop with a pre-set text. Basically, I need to take a picture like this and erase the text that is currently there and replace it with some thing else. I would like it to look as real as possible, with my own words in there.
1) From LR export to PS 2) Do all essential editings. 3) Save. File become 'xyz.tiff' now. (I want to keep this as master copy) 4) Crop to 4r, Save a Jpeg copy as 'xyz 4r.jpg' 5) PS save it as a copy, but do not automatically open the Jpeg copy. The tiff remains opened. I have to manullay Open, browse to it, and open the Jpeg. The 'Open Recent' list also do not list 'xyz 4r.jpg'. 6) Do 4r sharpening for the 'xyz 4r.jpg', save it. Â Basically the files I want to keep and worked on is like this: NEF -> xyz.tiff -> xyz 4r.jpg -> xyz sml.jpg(maybe) Â Now, it there a way in step (5) to have PS save the JPEG copy, and automatically open it? I don't care if the Tiff copy remains opened or not, I am done with it.
I got a new computer (Windows 7) at work this April and as of today, when I work on any of my JPEG images in PS CS5,suddenly it has defaulted its "Save As" to JPEG2000. How did this default change and how do I get it to default save as. JPEG again? There was nothing I noticed and no warning as to why this has changed, I didn't touch a thing! Â (Last week, Adobe had to work with our IT manager to fix a problem that started occuring with my new Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 program. They had to log into my computer and change a registry thing to get it to work properly again...also something that changed without warning!!)
I'm using a Mac. My windows friend sent me a jpeg of a piece of art we're working on. It looked fine in the web browser. It looked fine in Preview when I opened it, and it looked fine in Photoshop. But when I save it from photoshop after adding just a small thing to the image, the whole thing comes out a bit brighter. I have no idea what's doing it. I've tried Save For Web and Save As and it comes out the same each time. I have played with color settings in the past slightly, but it was my understanding that only affected how photoshop displays the image and I wouldn't expect it to change an image I imported then exported again.
In the ACR forum, there was a recent discussion about linear segments for the shadows. These are official for sRGB and ProPhotoRGB but are not part of the aRGB specification, but a slope of less than 32 is allowed in the shadows for raw converters and is used by ACR for all three of these spaces.
Does Photoshop currently implement a linear segment for these color spaces and does it make that much difference in practical photography?
Open a new document, file, import, click on the file filter type near the bottom right corner. The filter list begins with PPT (Powerpoint) and ends with XLS (Excel). There are 28 other file types between those two, all in alphabetical order from P to X.
All the file types from A to P are missing.
If I go to tools, customization, global, filters, in the list of active filters, they're all there (apprx. 60).Â
