Photoshop :: Scanned Bmp, Cut Off With Automate, Crop
Mar 5, 2008
I open PS and place a platen-load of photos on the scanner.
Using HP Scanjet 7650 and Omnipage Pro 12 I scan making one bmp.
I close the scanner program and have my bmp opened in PS.
A. File, Automate, Crop and straighten results in 4 psd files.
sometimes one or more of the 4 are miscut by PSCS. I then have to go into the original composite .bmp and recrop just the one that was miscut.
B.Let's say you've got 10 individual .bmps.
How to convert all at once to jpegs of a certain dimension?

I am a labtech at a community college and look after 48 mac pros in which the students use the entire creative suite. (I only mention this becuase any answers need to consider variations in system settings or photoshop settings. college students get into everything!)
But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before
[I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]

Photoshop Crop won't complete when trying to crop an image. This just started a couple of days ago and I can't figure out what's going on with it. This happens in Photoshop CS6 and CC

when I select the crop tool, my image disappears during the entire crop process. I can only see the image in the preview pane. Why is this happening? I am using the most current version of Lightroom, and I am on a PC.

I am missing a crop tool which can rotate the crop rectangle. Similar to photoshop's tool. I found no way to rotate the crop rectangle in gimp. How do you cut out something from an image if it needs to be rotated while cropping? I tried rotating first then cropping but it does not give me enough precision so I end up with transparent areas at the border.

How do I set the crop tool in Lightroom to crop only one aspect at a time (e.g. - vertical). Right now all crops do a vertical and horizontal at once.

I am having a problem with the crop tool. It will not crop the area I want; it goes to a point and stops. It's as if it has a mind of it's own and I can't direct it. I thought it might be the mouse so I took it apart and cleaned it, and then I put a different mouse in. It still does the same thing.

I have created an action to embed a watermark. However when I run the action on multiple files I have to press Ok to embed the watermark for each file. How can I automate pressing the OK key so it just processes a whole batch?

What this automate function is in CS6 does? Under File-->Automate, I see a "Plug-in on new layer". However, when I click nothing happens..I am wondering if this was installed with another plug-in. What this does or how to use it?

I'm pretty new to PS, have used PSE prior to getting the whole CS6 package, so I might ask an obvious question to some.
I have a bunch of pictures, which I want to add 1.0 exposure to and maybe a few other adjustments.
Is there a way to make this automaticly to a bunch of files?
I have been looking at the automate and script menu items, but it is a bid hard for me to see ifvit is possible that way.

I have a one-time project of scanning hundreds of slides off a flatbed scanner and I'd like to automate what's possible. I've been filling the scanner surface with slides and scanning them into photoshop and I've found the scan and crop feature that does a good job separating the slides on the large scanned image into separate images. But, this would go a lot faster if I could automate the last step. Ideally I could just scan in a large number of images each consisting of many different slide images, and I could have photoshop process the files, producing the smaller images.
I feel helpless without a command line interface, though. Does photoshop have a scripting language? I'm only using photoshop for this one purpose so I'd rather not learn it unless it's based on a common language. Any suggestions to my specific file processing question, or how I'm going about the entire process ...

I am trying to setup a batch file. I am taking gif images with transparent backgrounds and wanting to convert. Need to flatten image, change mode to rgb and save to jpg. For some reason when I use the automate after recording, and I set source folder and destination folder, images sent to the destination are exactly the same as original, gif transparent? Nothing seems to be happening to the images?

I have thousands of thumbs in where i would like to improve brightness sharpen etc automatically. I created an action that do it all and save for web in specific folder. But now i get a problem.
Name of thumbs have sizes 40-50 chars. So everything will be alright if photoshop didnt have some limits for save for web filenames, it cut my names to like 16 chars and overwrite all thumbs in gallery in 1 file
When i tried "save as" thumbs weight 3x mroe then initial, even when i tried low quality..
Is it any way to fast improve quality of thumbs that are all in different folders? The best thing would be if program could just overwrite thumb so there would be no problem but I don't know how to do it.
I would like to do it all automatically cause i have many galleries where i would like to change thumbs.

I'm seeing a strange issue when I automate an action in Photoshop CC (14.0). I have a simple action that does three things in this order:
1. Flatten Image
2. Convert to 8-Bit
3. Add some standard file info
When I run the action from the action menu it works fine. However when I have multiple images open and I want to run them all through the action using "Automate->Batch", it gets run in this order:
2. Convert to 8-Bit
3. Add some standard file info
1. Flatten Image
The same process in CS6 does not have the issue.

I was wondering if on Photoshop 7, CS5 etc, is there a way to automate a batch feature directly on an image from right click of the mouse? Example, I have an image that I want to change the canvas from 200x300 pixel to 500x500. Currently I have to right click, change image size than the canvas size. Looking to see if there is a way with one click of the mouse to run my batch feature that does this function.

I need to manually crop thousands of pics and want to semi automate the process. I assumed i
could create an action with a stop (at which point i would do a manual crop, because each
image is different) and then continue with the saving. So i opened an image, started
recording, immediately inserted the stop, resumed recording and saved. But when i run
file>automate>batch the first image opens and the stop dialog appears (with my message) and
the options to continue or stop. At that point (at the stop) it does not allow me to
manually crop. Why not? If i press continue it saves and then opens the next image..... If i
press stop another dialog comes up asking to continue or stop, i still cannot manually crop
and pressing stop at this second box stops the entire batch process. How can i get the
action to stop at each image so i can manually crop and then continue with the save and open
the next one? I thought this is what the stop function was for. A quote from the manual;
"Actions can include stops that let you perform tasks that cannot be recorded (for example,
using a painting tool). Actions can also include modal controls that let you enter values in
a dialog box while playing an action."
Sure, except that as usual from adobe, you either have to be a rocket scientist or a mind
reader to figure out how to make it do what you want to do. Anyone know how to do this?

I'm working on a PC using CS2 and I have a problem with the automate and then web gallery choice. I've built web sites using Dreamweaver and have been using this feature in CS2 to build quite a few web galleries. The problem is after I go to Web Gallery and then check out the different choices in the drop down menu and say I pick "horizontal slide show" and pick the source and destination folders, colors etc. So it makes the slide show beautifully BUT....here's the problem. When you check out all the files in Deamweaver and see the individual pages for each photo there is on the left a place where you can type in title and description for each one. I type in all the information and save each individual .html page and then up load the whole thing with the index pages, thumbnails and all the pages for the photos. The problem is when I then go to view it in the browser the information I typed on the first slide is the only information that will show and it shows on all pages!

I am converting tiff files to jpeg using the Automate then Batch Actions. I select my source folder and Destination folder. The program converts and send the jpegs to the Destination folder but it is also sending a copy of every jpeg to my DESKTOP. Nothing in my Destination folder shows the desktop as a destination. I set up a destination file on my e drive and it still sends the photos to the desktop.
I am using CS2 Photoshop.

I am trying to make an Action that will apply a set of various (yet specific) changes to an image, and then apply that Action to an entire folder of images. I have created the action and when run manually it work great, but when I apply it to Automate - Batch, there is a "bug".
Currently, the Action will take the image and set the layer to BG, then it will save the original to a folder. It then will resize the image to a set width maintaining aspect ratio, save that to another folder.
This all works great.
The last portion of the Action reduces the file to yet another width (maintaining aspect ratio), but it then applies a 1px stroke, and applies a dropshadow, at 120 degrees and 100 opacity. When I run the action on an individual image, this part works great, however when I batch this in a folder, all of the images get the dropshadow with a 30 degree shadow. Everything else works fine. The default settings for a shadow are 120 degrees, so I cannot figure out where this 30 Degree setting is coming from.
Any help would be appreciated. I dont know if anyone will be able to read my action, but I will try to attach.
