Photoshop :: Pasting

Jul 17, 2008

Everytime I copy and paste from one image into another, all I seem to get is a big white area the same shape as the image I tried to paste. Where am I going wrong?

Photoshop :: Pasting Text - Nothing Happens

Apr 9, 2012

I'm having a weird problem with pasting text into Photoshop. It had been working fine until today. Here is how I usually do it (and it won't work now):
 
Copy text from email or web page into basic text editor. Make any changes necessary.
Copy text from text editor.
Paste into Photoshop text field.
 
Today when I try to paste the text into Photoshop nothing happens. It pastes fine into other programs such as Illustrator (and even this form.) And it will copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop (though it comes through styled which is not what I want.)
 
I've run my usual repair programs but that didn't clear up the problem. how to fix this?
 
Adobe Photoshop 5.5
Mac Pro w/OS X 10.6.8

Photoshop :: CS6 (Ask When Pasting) Not Working?

Jul 18, 2012

I have "Ask When Pasting" checked in Color Settings, but I just realized that images are being converted without asking. Is this a bug in CS6? not maybe there is something wrong with my preferences? I have to rebuild a document because the base image was an FPO in sRGB that I forgot to convert to my CMYK space. Usually I would be asked if I want to convert when I drag a new layer over which would catch my mistake.
 
I tried resetting the dialog by going to Prefences>General>Reset all warning dialogs, which didn't fix it. Howerver, I'm not sure that the reset in Gereral Preferences also affects the Color Settings preferences.I also tried closing PS and throwing out Color Settings.csf from my User Preferences. This didn't fix it either. I've never had Color Settings go bad, so I'm not 100% sure this is the right file to remove.
 
I first saw this when my base document was in sRGB and the layer I dragged over was in "Web Coated SWOP 2006 Grade 3 Paper". I just tried it in the opposite direction with the same results.Photoshop CS6 Extended, Version 13.0 x64. Mac OS10.7.4. 17" MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz Quad Core i7, 16GB ram.

Photoshop :: Pasting Into PS Using Charmap.exe

Feb 7, 2006

I'm using a font called WoD (World of Darkness) - it's basically a dingbat font. I'm using Charmap to copy the icon I need - its number is Alt + 0162 or 0xA2. When I paste into Word or Wordpad, the icon comes up correctly. When I try and paste it into Photoshop (CS2), it comes up as the same character as 0x3F.

The pasting fails whether or not I have NumLock on, and the same character (3F) comes up when I try to copy/paste or type (using Alt) any character greater than Alt + 0128.

Whenever I copy/paste a selection, it 'fades' away the edges, giving it a softer look.  I'd like to paste exactly what I copied, the entire edge.

Photoshop :: Pasting Quickmask

May 26, 2007

When I use Quick Mask for masking an area that I want to copy and paste, then go to standard edit mode, I see the marching ants, so far so good, except when I paste the Image into another image it's looks too be about 25% transparent.

If I use lasso tool too do same thing, no problem, no
transparency..

What's happening? I've reloaded the program twice now,
problem still exists.

Photoshop :: Pasting Into CS5 / Auto Resize?

Jan 13, 2012

We copy a lot of existing elements from illustrator files into existing Photoshop documents. The dimensions of the Illustrator files are much larger, so we've always pasted into Photoshop and it resizes to the smaller photoshop document.
 
When I paste into the existing Photoshop document in CS5, I need the image/object to resize to my Photoshop document, instead of pasting in at the actual/original size.
 
Is there something I can change in preferences? Or a way to do this?

Photoshop :: CS6 / Pasting Shapes From Illustrator?

May 15, 2012

[Photoshop + Illustrator CS4]
 
I am trying to paste 3 shapes from Illustrator into Photoshop. The shapes are layered; I need them to be separate layers in PS. I am copying the shapes from AI and pasting into PS as separate Shape layers. The problem is that when I paste the shape layers, the position in which they land on the canvas is not consistent... they don't line up properly. This means I will have to manual reposition the shapes in Photoshop?
 
(as a side note, I'm baffled that there is not way to export my AI document as a PSD, and retain the layers as vector shapes... exporting to PSD requires I rasterize the artwork. Has this been added to CS6?)

Photoshop :: Pasting Settings Between Pictures

May 12, 2011

I have two photos which are of roughly the same scene but taken under slightly different lighting conditions.

I'll use a MS Word analogy to try and explain what I'm after - in Word, I can select some text and copy it. I can then move within Word to a completely different document and select Paste Special and just paste the format of the text. The result will be that I have different text but in the exact same size/font/colour. What I'm trying to achieve is some way of sampling the exposure settings (eyedropper?) of picture 1 and then pasting these settings back into picture 2 so that the green of the grass and the blue of the sky are similar in both.

Photoshop :: Pasting Into Existing Layer?

Jun 13, 2006

I've got a Photoshop file that someone wants me to use as a template. It has an existing layer that I need to put a picture into without modifying the layer or creating a new one.

Whenever I cut and paste a picture into it, the pasted picture becomes "Layer 1" but I want it to paste onto a layer which is already there (rather than become a new layer).

Photoshop :: Copying And Pasting Between Images

Sep 11, 2004

I'm a PS newbie, and I've been trying to copy a selection from one image and paste it in another. This normally works perfectly, but I've been having real problems with one image. Whenever I copy something onto it (with most pics, at least; haven't tried them all) the copied selection loses all colour and texture and becomes an apparently random selection of white and black pixels.

Is there a setting somewhere that I should change? Are the images just incompatible? Please help.

Here's an example screenshot. Request any further information you want and I'll try to provide it.

Edit: In case you couldn't tell, I'm trying to copy the stick on the right onto the witch.

Photoshop :: Oddities About Pasting Images

Apr 24, 2004

lets say there is this image, and I want to make a selection. That selection, I want to quicky turn into a new image. So, the way I did it was:

1. Press S.
2. Drag Selection.
3. Press CTRL+C.
4. Goto FILE > NEW
5. Create 1x1 image.
6. With new image selected, press CTRL+V to paste it into image (auto fits)

In Paintshop Pro, all you had to do was:

1. Press S.
2. Drag Selection.
3. Press CTRL+C.
4. Press CTRL+V.

(CTRL+V would "PASTE AS NEW IMAGE") Which worked perfect. And in PSP CTRL+E would "PASTE INTO CURRENT IMAGE / SELECTION", which seems to be the current CTRL+V function for PS.

Am I taking too many steps here? Is there a way to do this more like the PSP way?

Another short example, I had text that I wanted to manually adjust the kerning. I had to:

1. Press L (for Lasso)
2. Dragg Selection
3. Instead of the Click-Holding inside this new selection to move the contents over, PS moves the SELECTION over. I tried ALT, CTRL and SHIFT variants but they don't move the selection's contents like I'd want. So I press M (for Move).
4. Move the item.
5. Goto Step 1 for each of the letters I want to move.

Photoshop :: Images Pasting Small

Aug 13, 2004

i have photshop cs and when i paste a picture into photoshop from my "my pictures" folder after selecting parts of the image with the magnetic lasso, it pastes fine. mind you, its in jpeg form, because its pictures i myself took with my digital camera. ok, thats not a problem. but when i go into another folder that has pictures on my computer, use the magnetic lasso to take part of the image and paste it once again on a blank new canvas---THE IMAGES PASTE LIKE 25% OF THE ORIGINAL SIZE!! it only does this with this one particular folder. i like making collages of my pics, so i open up a custom, 8x10 new blank canvas, and when i print, it always comes up super small when pasted. i try resizing the images, but they are pixelated, so it looks blurry the bigger i make it. how can i paste images in accordance with their original size and stop getting these super small midget sizes of my image?

Photoshop :: Pasting The Right Image Size

Jan 29, 2004

I have an application that creates stock charts. I want to use those stock charts on a website. But the application itself has no image features. I can copy the chart though and past it into photoshop. Now my problem is that I want every chart to have the same size (look). I was thinking of making the charts w x h = 400 x 600, in that way they fit nicely on my website. And I want to save it ready for the web so that I get small files.

My desktop has a setting of 1280x1024. My stock application has windows for the charts so I can basically make them any size as long as they fit on my screen. I copy the chart and then i go to photoshop but that is where I don't know exactly what to do to get uniform looking charts.

how to get uniform looking pics. Should I create always the same canvas size, with the same pixels? Or how would I go around this?

Illustrator :: Color Changes When Pasting To Photoshop?

Feb 12, 2011

I have set both PS and Illustrator (both latest versions) to "North America Web/Internet". Both documents are RGB and have the sRGB IEC61966-1 profile.
 
When I copy a square in Illustrator and paste it into PS RGB 19,78,110 (the color in Illustrator) changes to RGB 18,78,109. It doesn't matter whether I paste it as pixel, smart object or shape layer. The sampled color differs from that in Illustrator.
 
It's really unnerving when you do web mockups in Illustrator and then copy/paste to PS for image creation.

Photoshop Elements :: Re-sizing And Pasting In 12?

Dec 30, 2013

I've just got Elements 12 and I'm having difficulty getting started.
 
The first thing I need to do, is to re-size a load of images - I need them to be a specific size in centimetres. I don't care how many pixels they are, or how big the file is.
 
However, whenever i try re-sizing, and then open the image in something else, it hasn't really changed size - it's just set to print at that size in elements. As I'm not printing them, I'm sending them digitally elsewhere to be printed, that's no good to me- is there any way to actually change the size.
 
Once I've got the images resized, I then want to paste them onto a slightly larger black background. However, I don't seem to be able to paste between files. Is this normal?
 
To sum up:
 
I have a load of jpegs and pngs of various sizes, I want to get them all to 6.12 x 8.6 cm, then paste them into a black background 6.4 x 9 cm (providing a thin border against the edges being cropped int he printing process) and save as jpegs. These jpegs will then be uploaded to a printing company via the internet.

Photoshop :: Pasting Stuff Larger Than Document

Jan 29, 2013

I've never found a solution. I spent a half hour googling the issue - and got nowhere.
 
If I open a ps file that's big, copy the content, and paste it into a smaller document, I have to do a Command-0, to be able to view the whole image with handles on the pasted content, then manually pull a corner with shift held down until it's close to the size to fit, then manually size the whole thing back up to 100%.  Craziness.
 
Why can't I paste content into another doc, have the transform handles be there, with the clipboard content sized within the window?
 
This is NOT a problem with Placing stuff from Illustrator This has nothing to do with resolutions
 
This is simply a request to find a way to paste something big, into something smaller, without having to zoom out until I can see the transform handles.

Photoshop :: Losing Formatting When Pasting Text In CS6

Aug 21, 2013

I am trying to copy and paste text in Photoshop CS6 and I am losing the oh-so-valuable formatting. I am referring to two boxes side by side in Photoshop that contain text.
 
I love the text in the first box, but when I try to duplicate the formatting in the second box right next to it, the text looks completely different. And, when I try to just paste some of the text from the first box to the second box, the 20 px text suddenly becomes 96.3 px text.
 
Even though I go through all of the formatting options available and duplicate what was in the first box, the text in the second box ends up looking nothing like the first box even though they contain exactly the same formatting, font type - everything.
