Is there a way to organize fonts into groups or folders without using a font manager (I'm running Photoshop CS3 in XP Pro)? i.e., when I click on the font drop down menu, it would be awesome to see (for example) something like this:
View 1 RepliesWhen I open fonts drop down menu inside of Photoshop, I have over 300 fonts listed in alphabetical order, most of which I don't use.
I installed about 20 fonts that I like. But how do I group them together? After typing and selecting text in Photoshop, I want to quickly flip through my 20 best fonts collection (with up and down arrow) to see which font looks better. Is there a way to do it?
I tried deleting all fonts from Library, and leaving only my 20 fonts there, but that didn't work out, because text in other applications started looking funny.
what are the chances of PDN being able to sort and organise fonts into sections? (Serif, Sans Serif, New, Standard, User defined) Would it require some kind of external software or a different font folder than the standard windows one?

i have allready amased a large collection!
I have accumulated about 3000 family photos by scanning old printed and accumulating new digital photos. The problem is that they are spread into 2 desktops and 2 laptops, and I also have pictures still into 3 digitals cameras.Now before I organize those photos with Photoshop Element Organizer, I am in search of the best way to merge all those pictures into my new laptop which has C and D drive. I was planning to put my programs on C: and my data on D: to latter ease my backup task.I want to build the right structure right now and not to regret anything done wrong latter.
1) Should I proceed with a transfer using a USB key drive for my scanned photos and for those received by email? They are already in the form of yyyy-mm-dd
2) Should I use the software from my first CANON 3 MEG camera, and the software of my 2nd CANON 5 MEG, and then the 3rd software of my SAMSUNG 12 MEG to transfer the photo to my new folder?
3) Should I put them all in the same folder?
4) Am I right that any duplication will be found by the ORGANIZER and this will be solved easily?
5) My guess is that they will all end up being in date order like yyyy-mm-dd.
In the videos on line, they don’t talk much about that special case of organizing a big data bank into one single new computer
I have loaded photos into Organize but I cannot transfer from Organize to Edit without the whole system freezing up. The cursor is a hand... I can't even get that to work....and then I can't close the page. I just purchased (a download) this upgrade from Elements 6. That wasn't so terribly user-friendly, but Elements 11 is a nightmare!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded from PSE 9 to PSE 11 and decided to redo my catalogue from scratch. My photos are already on the hard drive in the format of Main folder Photographs with the years underneath that. In each year I have put the twelve months with the number of the month before the name so that the stay in date order. (e.g. January is 01 Jan, Feb is 02 Feb). When I imported the photos into the catalogue I found that the list of folders on the left did not stay within the year and month so there was a long list of folders with no hierarchical structure.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy sisters photo collection is a total mess without any rational system to it. Its just illogical structured with folders with generic keywords and thousands of files within each folder. For example, there it's a folder called "travel" where she has just dumped thousands of single files from 10 years of vacations. Not the mention the "various" and "misc" folders.
What I am trying to do: It does seem like all the photos have the correct EXIF data on them though. So what I'm looking to do is to restructure the collection in folders (with dates taken from EXIF) in a manner similar to this:
"/various/filename.jpg" ---> "/2012_06_25/filename.jpg"
"/friends/filename.jpg" ---> "/2012_05_01/filename.jpg"
and so on.
At least then it gets some kind of chronological structure to it. I want to physically organize the files, not organize them through a database.
What is the best approach for doing something like this? I guess I could just batch rename everything from the exif data with Bridge and then organize it from there - but this will still be very tedious. There must be a better way (any PS/Bridge scripts that can do this? The more automated the better. I use Bridge and I dont have LR - but if LR can do this it *might* be whats finally pushing me to buy it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm aware that Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 is not supported by Adobe anymore. I have thousands of photos organized on it using its "Category" function. Does Photoshop Elements 11 have a similar function? (I'm in the midst of also switching to a new computer and my old one can't load the info on the PS 11 program available on this site.) I'm extremely concerned I not lose the ability to retrieve my pix by the categories I've already assigned them, when I switch to PS 11 on my new computer.

Lightroom aside, the way I have my photos organized are like this. Follow along with the photo!
In the My Pictures folder I have a few folders for each year. You open up a year, like 2011 and it opens up each photo session I did. For example if I went to the beach on March 25 I would make a folder titled March 25, Beach Shoot. Inside that folder would be all of my pictures from the beach.
Well in lightroom I imported everything and it all shows up as various folders. There are no years, all the years are crammed into one section in the module. The folders section under my C drive.
Its really hard to find certain photos from shoots. I dont care to look through shoots from 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 when I went on a shoot yesterday, in 2012.
What is the best way to organize all my pictures from various years? How do others do this? I bought a Lynda membership for their video lessons and took a 5 hour course on how to organize Lightroom and the guy in the video was dealing with like 150 shots. I’m dealing with almost 20,000.
I want to see "resent" fonts when choosing, be able to type letter to get down the list quickly, group similar fonts, etc. Maybe have a magnifying glass attached to cursor to see fonts better.... Why have this not been done?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to organize Design Options (alpha numeric) once they have been created.
I work for a large home builder and we will have multiple elevations for each floor plan. The elevations are usually labeled A, B, C, D etc. If an elevation changes labels, say elevation D becomes elevation B, the order will now be A, D, C, B; they cant be reordered into alphabetical order. Which can become confusing. Make sense? Attached is an example of a basic Design Option from one of my houses. In a typical house we can have 50-60 design options, that can change names over years, and they need to remain in an easily read and sourced order.
How to organize multiple layout tabs. My problem is I need to plot 50 different looking bits from one main plan and need to save the layouts too for future reference..Creating 50 layout tabs in paper space does not seem the best way to do it.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI cannot seem to organize my patterns. I save patterns under specific group names, i.e. Leather Fabric (1), or Denim Fabric (1), but when I refresh my pattern window, those patterns may or may not be grouped together. When they are not grouped together they scatter all over the place, which is very frustrating. I have not figured out how to group categories of patterns, I guess...or even if it's possible.
Another thing I am curious about is the initial patterns supplied with the GIMP program. Can we delete those? I used to be able to black them out and save them that way, or drop a different pattern in and save that, but I don't seem to be able to do that with the newest version of GIMP.
With the newest version of GIMP, another issue I'm having is saving patterns. I can no longer go to SAVE AS....and save a pat file. I have to go to EXPORT. which seems weird to me.
organize the pile of images and various videos that we have taken over the years. It seems like LR is optimized to organize image. But can it work with my Sony AVCHD video and mp4, mov formatted videos as well? And if so, How good is it at these tasks?

All of my imports seem to go into a 2011 folder. I also tried to create a sub folder within 2011 and promote it to the master Lightroom Photos Folder but it does not work. I've been using a mac for over 20 years and this seems just wrong.
I am organizing photo's of patients in a lightroom catalog. Each patient has a folder with his ID number. These are organised in the catalog according to the pathology. I can import photo's of the same patient after one year and I would like them to go easily in the same folder, with his ID number. Because the catalog with subfolders is large, it can be hard to find that folder. Is there an easy, 'automatic' way to find it, and to put the new photo's straight in this folder?

I need to be able to organize parts in my assembly somehow and to be able to display if needed (on Parts List) only parts belonging to one category (level?).
I could do it by creating another custom iproperty in a part template and each part would belong to a particular group. Then I could sort them in BOM in .iam environment and have particular category visible on Parts List with the other categories with visibility turned off.
It used to be that I very rarely used fonts within CS5 but recently I have. I realized that all of the fonts supposedly included with CS5 are not available via my drop down menu.
I then found these fonts in Windows/fonts so I copied all of those fonts into Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Fonts. These unavailble fonts are now listed in that folder but are still not available via the dropdown menu in PS CS5.
I've recently read that the fonts don't really even NEED to be in the Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Fonts folder and that PS should actually make all of the fonts in Windows/Fonts available via the dropdown menu. Yes, I have restarted PS after copying the files and also tried rebooting my PC after copying the files. The fonts are still not available via the drop down text menu within PS even though all of them are now in both locations.
I have put some new fonts into C:/windows/fonts and they have come up in other programs e.g. Microsoft office but they are not showing up in photoshop.
i am using vista home premium with SP1 and it is 32bit and photoshop cs4.
I'm trying to transition away from iPhoto to Lightroom. Honestly I've always liked iPhoto. I've found it very easy to use, and the way it organizes photos into "events" is very useful. However, I'll be doing most of my photo work on a PC, so I'm moving over to Lightroom instead.
I have already exported all of my iPhoto library. Each event has its own folder (named after the event), and all the photos have their meta data. Everything is copacetic.
My question is a matter of organization of the photos within Lightroom. In iPhoto, all the events were listed chronologically, and this made it easy to locate what I was looking for. In Lightroom, however, it seems that the way you navigate photos is through the folder list under "Library," which is listed alphabetically instead of chronologically.
I currently have 136 separate folders. So I turn to you for a bit of advice since I am brand new to this program. Any way to organize and browse photos in Lightroom that I don't know about?
I wonder is there is a quicker way to rotate your drawing in the models to organize them in the layout?
This isn't fast and convient at all to rotate your hole drawing to fit it in the landscape paper for example.
I know I've read something in the past about a new way of doing it, but can't remember.
I have three weeks of photos from a trip abroad. How can I import several hundred photos and organize them into one file instead of separate files for each date they were taken?
