At home I use either CS2 or CS3 of which I am able to save the artwork I have created or edited easily as a JPEG or BITMAP, however when I am in College and use the CS2 they have there I can't, the file I save is corrupted and I've tried every computer. What am I supposed to do when I want to do work at school?
View 1 RepliesI often have 20-30 bitmap photos that I need to convert to high-quality JPEGs. Is there a way, perhaps in BRIDGE, that I can batch convert them all to Quality 12 JPEGs ? I am using Photoshop CS5 with a fast Windows 7 desktop.

I tried copying a dupe for a second layer to see if that worked but nix. i still have x4 and i do it there. but what's with x6? all the other tools work but the paint brush.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am currently using this method, creating a 1-bit bitmap from a grayscale "distress" texture bitmap, choosing transparent fill or outline depending on which area i need trasparent and powerclip it in text or other vector object.
Is there a way to achieve the same distress effect with transparency with FILL ? pattern fill maybe? eg can i save in some format this bitmap to use it maybe as a pattern in pattern fill and retain transparency ?

I have a screenshot, which I have cropped to a specific area to show a specific part of a window: a shape with a bitmap fill, or a cropped bitmap whichever way you consider it.
Next I have another screenshot, of exactly the same dimensions, showing the same window - but showing that window in a different state.
Both screenshots are bitmaps in my document, both appear in the Bitmap Gallery.
I'm not sure if something changed in recent versions of Xara, or I have forgotten the drag+key combination, but how can I drag the second bitmap onto a copy of the first bitmap-filled shape so that the SAME part of the bitmap is shown?
Using different combinations of SHIFT and CTRL I seem to be able to replace all instances of the first bitmap with the second: It is scary that a shape with a bitmap fill offscreen or on another page can be changed unwittingly!
I got this workflow,
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.
Basically the files I want to keep and worked on is like this: NEF -> xyz.tiff -> xyz 4r.jpg -> xyz sml.jpg(maybe)
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!
(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.
View 4 Replies View RelatedPrint to JPEG in LR5.2 produces a corrupt JPEG file that cannot be opened.
Lightroom is running on MacPro. When printing I am attaching an ICC profile provided by the bureau that is going to produce the prtins. Having said this the file cannot be opened neither on a Mac nor on a Windows PC.
Up until now, i used to exported as TIFFs but after reading Jeff Schewe book The Digital Print i have become convinced that printing through LR to a file is much more efficient.
It is convenient to add each image name as a text on each figure by Slideshow. Could I use each image name as the exported file name?
View 6 Replies View RelatedIf I shoot RAW + JPEG, and I add EXIF data to the JPEG files outside of Lightroom, when I import the RAW + JPEG pairs will the metadata I added to the JPEG files still be there?
I'd try it myself, but I don't actually have the equipment to do this right now.
I'm trying to export a JPEG so that the file size is smaller, for use on the web. So the file I have is 1.1 MB. I try to export via LR4 using the percentage slider, but no matter what percentage I use, the file size is always GREATER than 1.1 MB! And if I try to limit the size by inputing a value, say 1000 kb, I get an error message saying I can't do that for some reason:
Also, this is not the case with just one file, it is numerous files.
I want to shoot tethered in studio, and shoot RAW + JPEG, but I want Lightroom to only import the JPEGS so as to improve the speed. I shoot a Canon 7D.

I scanned a black and white painting of bamboo leaves on an Epson scanner as a black and white (bitmap) image, saving it as a TIF file. The painting was compose of solid black leaves on white paper background. If I Place that image directly into an InDesign document I am working on, the white background of the image is automatically made transparent — which is exactly what I need in this case. If, however, I open the image in Photoshop to manipulate it, the transparent background becomes solid white, and I have to change the file to grayscale to edit it and erase the white background. Is there a way to import the TIF into Photoshop with it's transparent background intact?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI always thought that the pixel size of a bitmap image was driven by the resolution of the file. I have recently found that this isn't so.
Here is my situation:
I have an existing bitmap that when I zoom in to 1600% and measure the pixel size is .003". I don't have access to the original greyscale the bitmap was created from, and going back to greyscale, blurring, re-rezzing and converting back to bitmap is not prefered.
What I am looking for is any suggestions on how to change the pixel size of an existing bitmap. I am re-sizing several so they are all placed at the same size and I want all of the pixels or spots to be the same size.
The company I am working for want me to send my scanned black and white pages in bitmap mode instead of grayscale. The problem I am having is my line work is becoming very pixelated when converting to bitmap.
Program- Photoshop CS6
I have a 1 bit bitmap file but when I convert to grayscale and then on to CMYK the black CMYK components end up as:
C: 75%
M: 68%
Y: 67%
K: 90%
I need to keep black at 100% but all the other values to be at 0%, so:
C: 0
M: 0
Y: 0
K: 100%
How I can do this?
What happened to the transparency in eps bitmap images? I used to be able to create a duotone with transparency in earlier versions of Photoshop. I would save a black & white image, as bitmap eps file. I could import/place it into a psd file to create a transparent dutone image. Now when I place into a PSD/photoshop inside the image is white and no transparency. I'm using CS6.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm currently working on some banners which have to be printed on 4m94 x 1m05. I have a wood texture background and the foreground will consist of images that have been cutout in Photoshop.
The banners will be exported from InDesign to PDF. Now I wonder what's best: importing the background texture in InDesign and placing the other images on top of it (which means that I need hires bitmaps with transparent backgrounds), or should I create the banners in Photoshop (whole composition) and save them to hires bitmaps?
how can I save a hires bitmap in Photoshop? Or what is the definition, the settings etc. of a hires bitmap?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to do is create a rectangular frame or border around the outer edge of a CMYK bitmap image. I need to save the image as a Photoshop EPS and I need a vector border that won't be affected by resolution of output device (on screen, print, PDF, etc.).
I've tried "Select All" and create a path around the outer edge of the rectangle. How do I stroke this to get a vector frame that I can save as an EPS file? In the end, all I want is a half-point black rule around the rectangular edge of the image... nothing fancy, no special effects and no alteration of any internal element of the bitmap graphic. Just a border.

When i draw a vector shape using the shape tool and then resize it, it becomes distorted and pixelated as though it has been trandformed into a bitmap image.
Any ideas why it's doing that? Is there any options i need to change. It's never done it before.
Also, when i start a new document and draw a new shape it merges it to the background layer instead of creating a new layer automatically which it used to do.
I've just updated to PS 9.01 and all my fonts (including Truetype) have gone bitmapped.
View 2 Replies View Relatedtrying to create an image for photo-etching where I don't have to use a separate aquatint screen in my exposures. I created a 720 PPI randow dot bitmap image, increasing the blacks so they print as 'dots' with space around them (instead of solid black) but when I create this on my inkjet printer, it comes out looking very 'grainy,' even though I'm thinking that 720 is a pretty high output resolution. I'm wondering if I should try an even higher resolution, like 1440 or 2880?
I'm outputing to an Epson R2400 inkjet printer for this.
