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?

Ok, before a bunch of you tell me I need to go to my preferences and uncheck the "Resize image during place" option, I've already done that and it's till resizing which is whay I'm here.
Ok, so here's the story:
I built a pixel perfect graphic in Illustrator. Working space have identical pixel resolutions in both my illustrator and photoshop files. When I copy and paste my vector graphic to photoshop as a smart object it automatically resizes to an illogical size. SO currently, my 436x436 graphic tries to paste in to my 2048x1536 file as 1607x1607. I don't get it. I've rebooted with the same result. Everything I've been able to find on the forums so far seem to indicate that unchecking the "Resize" option should prevent this but it's having no effect. I am running the latest version of CS6 (subscription) and starting to get a little bit crunchy.

In CS3, the document window abutted the palette (panel) stack and expanded automatically when I collapsed the stack. How do I make CS4 (Windows XP) do this?

It has come to my attention that the new drag-resize feature only changes the master diameter of the brush but leaves the dual-brush diameter intact. It is the only shortcut that does this resizing improperly.
I would like to know if everyone else experiences the same problem. Is it a bug or is this way of resizing intended?
I mainly do digital paintings and this small bug makes the feature useless for me. I hope that it will be fixed at least in cs5.

I was using these tool on a lot of images, because they often seemed to vastly improve them, making the colors pop on otherwise somewhat dull ones, and getting rid of unwanted color casts..
Later though I noticed that it is often at the cost of burning out hightlights in some areas beyond salvation.I also find shadow /highlight sometimes does this also.
Then I tried to protect some small areas with a mask before proceeding, but it seems that I can't find information on just painting a mask, but only videos with much more complex adjustment such as the Russel Crow or Lynda ones with maintaing hair detail while superimposing images, which is way beyond what I need in these cases.
If I try the wand to select and inverse I get unnatural looking divisions. Is it a matter of feathering to the right extent?

I have just moved from 7.0 to CS3 (and PC to Mac) and am currently trying to get to grips with the new features! Once which I love is the auto-align and auto-blend feature(s). My question is, is there any way to control how these features work? I have seen on some web sites people talk about 'fuzziness' sliders where you can control that if an object (pixels) appear in X% of the photos they should/shouldn't be included in the final image but I cannot find these.
My intention is to use these features to take photos of monuments and have the people who are moving about removed from the final image (I guess it's the auto-align that would do this.) I tried a test and took a number of photos at home but I kept moving one object around (a pen.) The pen appears in all the images but in a different location so it always appears in the final image. When I tried auto-align with a stack that included one image without the pen, the pen was removed from the final image. Given the first scenario (i.e. the object is in all the images but in a different location) is there any way of automatically removing it using auto-align or would this have to be a manual process? In the real world, it would be possible to take a photo of a monument with people in different locations but it would be much harder (or take a long time) to take one where at least one person was not in all the photos (there's always someone loitering.)

In previous versions I have been able to resize the canvas and then resize the image. For example resize the canvas to 250px x 250 px. Then resize the image to the same.
Here is the process I am using:
Duplicate the layer and then hide it. Resize the canvas (Image > Canvas Size) to 250px x 250 px. Un-hide the layer and then resize the image (Image > Image Size). When I go into Image>Image Size it says that the image is already 250px x 250px. However if I try to transform the scale the image is the original size and not 250px x 250px
The reason for needing this is I resize image size (in bulk) and the canvas size using the batch process (file>automate>batch) and actions. I loaded the actions file I used in previous versions, but that did not work correctly. I then went in to do this manually and got the same results.

I have just been trying to resize some images on the latest version - 3.510.4297.28964 - and I have typed the measurements that I wanted into the print size fields on the resize dialogue. The actual sizes the program resizes the images to differ though - some look to be about right, whereas some come out much larger, but they all show the dimensions that I inserted in the canvas size box.
I'm sure I've done this before and this hasn't happened?

Yes, I'm probably the only person on the planet that wants this, but I liked how the Auto Tone auto adjusted the Exposure slider (ONLY!) and left all the other sliders at zero in the Lightroom 4 beta.
Is there a way to write a preset that returns that behavior?

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?

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

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.

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.

I want to hilite an area in a layer to copy and then PASTE into that EXACT same layer, (preferably with the MOVE tool selected so that I can then move that new pasted selection around), is there a way to do this?
The only PASTE commands I see are PASTE (which pastes AS NEW IMAGE) and PASTE INTO (which does I DONT KNOW WHAT!) Some kinda paste to new layer and auto create a mask

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.

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.

I have an illustrator file (various circles and half circles) built with various layers, I would like to copy and past these layers into Photoshop and change them to a shape layer, but when copying each layer and pasting the vector falls in slightly different place to the illustrator file, how can I keep the position the same as the illustrator?

[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?)

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.

This issue seems to be still an issue, I upgraded from CS3 to CS6.
If I open Illustrator, and create a box, solid black.
Open up a new PSD, and paste that box into photoshop.
The black box in photoshop is now dark gray.

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).

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.

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.
