Photoshop :: All Layers Reduced To Background Layer

Jan 8, 2008

I worked the whole day on the design for a new web. Some hours ago I saved the file and closed it. Now I re-open it - and I can't believe what I see! All the previously existing layers have gone, or better: they've been merged down to the "Background" layer! %0

Well, it's no bigger deal to re-do my work, it will have to sacrifice "only" another 1 or 2 hours for it. But I'm quite full of fear that this could happen again! But because I have no idea how this could have happened I don't know what to do better next time...

So does anybody of you have an idea, what could have happened...? I have whether changed the image mode on purpose nor edited the PSD file with another application! I only opened the file with OS X Preview, but this is (as the name implies) only an application for displaying stuff, not to modify it...

Photoshop Elements :: 9 / Win 7 - Create Album Of All JPGs With Reduced Size?

Aug 30, 2012

PSE 9 on Win 7.

I want to take a bunch of my pictures to my iPad via iTunes. iTunes will accept a PSE Album as a source. But not a Smart Album. I also want to reduce the size of the jpg's in the album. Sort of what I can do with Export. Is there some way I can do this?

Ultimately I'd like to get all my new photos to flow through this downsizing, into the album and be delivered pretty automatically.

Photoshop :: Optimize JPG Image Size Reduction By Reduced Compression Quality And Pixels

Feb 28, 2013

I have many images of slides scanned at high res (4800 DPI, maximum pixels 5214x3592).   Although I will be saving these as loss less TIFs, I also wish to make JPGs from them that I wish to be just less than 5 MB in file size.  Aside from cropping, I know I can achieve such a reduction of JPG file size by a combination of saving to lower quality JPG compression or reducing image size.  My question is, what is theoretically or practically better, achieving this mostly by reducing image total pixels or by reducing  JPG compression quality.

GIMP :: Image Size Reduced When Trying To Print Landscape?

Aug 18, 2011

I'm trying to print a landscape image but the image is reduced when printed. I open a new A4 sized template and make my image but when it comes time to print the image is smaller on the page than A4. Is there an easy solution to this? I have messed around with orientation both in GIMP and my printer settings, I have used the printers' "fit to page" setting and tried everything I can think of.

Photoshop :: Reduced Dpi From 300 To 72 Saved In New File Results

Nov 17, 2012

I use action macro to reduce 8x10s @ 300 dpi to 72 in a subfolder sent to clients by web for them to evaluate and choose preferred images.  However, they get 2x3 images at the original dpi, so what they see on their monitor is too small to see differences.  If uploaded to facebook etc. images look muddy.  What am I doing wrong?  Large files typically exceed Yahoo max. What can I do right?

Lightroom :: Export Original Photos In Low Quality (reduced Size From 12MB To 600KB)

Aug 20, 2013

I accidentally exported original photos in low quality (reduced size from 12MB to 600KB), as I needed to quickly (herein lays my mistake) upload them to a proofing site which requires me to reduce the quality of the images significantly.  I NEVER usually do anything without backing things up, or before making a copy etc. This time however, I was in a BIG rush to get these to a client and I not only exported the original files (even though I exported to a new folder, somehow, the originals got reduced as well without me noticing), but I also deleted them from my memory card (I tried card recovery software and no luck).  What I'm left with now is a folder full of low quality, useless images and no (known) way of restoring them to the original high quality (12MB) state. Here are some other details:
 
Program: Lightroom 2
Computer: MacBook Pro
Camera: Nikon D7100

(I only post this as I used my camera to delete the images off the memory cards...not sure if there is a way to recover via camera?)

Images no longer show in preview (yes, I deleted them from there too!)I did not back-up I tried scanning my hard-drive, memory card and external drive with recovery software (no luck)the images were on 2 memory cards and, as mentioned, I deleted them using my camera (when I ran the recovery software, only images that I originally deleted via my computer came up - which were the "did not make the cut" photos from the shoot that I deleted in Bridge - the rest of the photos, which are the ones I need, are not coming up in the scan)These images were to be used as posters, so high quality is crucial. There is nothing in my trash can eitherI tried using a preview extraction plug-in, but as there are no previews (duh Sanja), the plug in proved useless  I think that's all the info I can provide (maybe it's too much info as is)...

Photoshop :: Layer Control And EPS File Size

Jun 12, 2012

I have a black/white linedrawing, TIFF, where I needed to replace som texts. I saved it as PSD, lassoed the texts, erased them and inserted the new texts in about 20 different places.

The text size is only about 6 pt., and the whole drawing isn´t more than about 14 by 14 centimeters. In the PSD file all the changes now appear in separate layers (with the background drawing at the bottom, see inserted .png) one for each erased bit of text, whereas I thought it would be convenient to have all in one layer.

How does this influence the filesize, and how do I combine all new texts in one layer, if that takes up less space? Layer 3-5 doesn´t seem to serve any purpose, how does one see what´s actually in a layer? I also need to save the file as EPS, and doing so the filesize goes from 3,4Mb in PSD to 45Mb in EPS. What are the possibilities of minimizing this EPS-file?

Photoshop :: Why Does One Adjustment Layer Double My File Size?

Nov 16, 2006

I've got image 50mb. I put one adjustment later levels on. My hardrive says that file is now 95 mb.

I don't get it.

Isn't the whole point of adjustment layers is that unlike duping the bg layer you save space on your hardrive.

Photoshop :: Why Different File Size Of PNG-24 / Layer Mask Versus Deleting Pixels

May 24, 2012

I have noticed in Photoshop CS5.1 and CS6 strange behaviour when saving for web file as PNG-24.
 
case1.I have one layer photo 260x360.Create Marquee square 200x200 and layer mask hide selection (effect: transparent square hole inside)save for web as PNG-24 (transparency on)-> file size 131.4k
 
case2.I have one layer photo 260x360.Create Marquee square 200x200 and delete pixels (effect: transparent square hole inside)save for web as PNG-24 (transparency on)-> file size 66.93k
 
Both pictures got same square transparent hole, but sizes are so different. Using mask do not reduce size of the file PNG24. Why is like that, bug ?

Photoshop :: Census Data And Batch Export To File With Each Layer Sent To Canvas Of That Size?

May 3, 2013

>ap alterations. I have collected many (over 100k) screeenshots of census data. In the interest of not using the actual captures (intelectual property restrictions), I have extracted the data alone to a new multi layered file with each address as its own layer. Some have 1 person, some have 200 people.

Can I export each layer to file in such a way that the canvas will not be the 75 inch canvas in the parent image? I needed to use such a large transparent background because population density is very high. Is ther an autodetect feature?

VideoStudio :: 9 ISO File Size For Double Layer Disc

Jan 7, 2011

I recently bought a double-layer DVD burner and attempted to burn a DVD of a 2 hour home movie in Ulead VideoStudio 9, but have been unable to do so. I can burn it if I shrink the compression, but I don't want to lose quality - which is why I got the double layer burner in the first place. I know it's an older program, but I didn't think I would have so many problems trying to the double-layer disc to work. I have downloaded the upgrade patch for dual-layer burning from the web, but it still hasn't worked. When I burned just the image file (.iso) and tried to use another program to burn the disc, I noticed that it didn't finish saving the entire movie - it stopped when the file size reached 4.2 GB - which is right at the max for a single layer disc. How can I change the settings so the .iso image file will continue working/saving past the 4.2 GB since I can get close to 8 GB on a double layer disc? I'm missing about the last 10 minutes of my video - I need around 5.0 GB for the full movie.

AutoCad :: Copy / Paste Objects From One Layer In First File To Different Layer In Second File

Aug 7, 2013

I am using ACAD 2005 and am trying to copy&paste several objects from a layer I created in one .dxf file to one of the 2 standard layers (0 or Defpoints) in a new blank .dxf file.

My problem though is that if I copy and paste all of the objects (or even one of them) and them move to the new file and paste, it pastes the objects, but also "imports" into the new file the original file's layer that these objects were on.

For clarity, the new file only has the 2 standard layers and then after copy/pasting an object, the file manager shows the 3rd layer from the original file.

Photoshop :: Saving As In CS5 Mac Reduced Files To 72 Ppi

Feb 22, 2012

I have spent considerable time trying to "save as" some of my high-res TIFFs into other folders as TIFFS, yet PS has insisted on reducing ppi's on these folders from original count of 600 - 1200 to 72 ppi...WHY?

I want to save the changes made in PS CS5 for Mac to another file as a TIFF, so why is PS insisting on reducing the ppi to 72?

Photoshop :: Should A Photograph Be Reduced In Steps Or All At Once?

May 16, 2006

I've heard that when making a photograph smaller in Photoshop the results are better if it's done in steps instead of all at once.

If this is true how much should it be reduced each time and should the change in pixels per inch be done before reducing the image

My camera saves at 300 ppi at 3872 pixels wide (sometimes they are cropped which makes them smaller) and for the web I need about 500 pixels wide at 72 ppi.

Photoshop :: Canvas Size + Resolution= File Size?

May 14, 2003

Can someone please explain to me about file sizes and image dimensions. I have to put together a collage which is 165mm high by 258mm wide. If I click file new and choose default resolution (72) then the file size is ok, if I type in 300 dpi the image becomes huge.

If i chosse 300 dpi then the images I was going to use seem tiny on such a vast workspace - Im confused why does the canvas become so large when changing resolution?

Photoshop :: Image Quality Reduced When Opened

Jul 7, 2008

I don't know how to explain it properly, but recently if I download a picture and open it in Photoshop is appears rough and edgy. For example, I just recently downloaded this.

However, when I attempt to open it using Photoshop is appears like this. (I couldn't open the screenie in Photoshop as the quality was reduced even further)

I just started using Photoshop recently, but when I first started using Photoshop it didn't do this. It happens, I now know, with any image. Even those that were never downloaded such as the screenie I provided have a drastic decrease.

Photoshop :: Image Size Vs File Size

Apr 29, 2009

  When I save a file to jpeg the image size in photoshop remains the same as it was as a tiff file BUT according to the information that comes up in windows properties the file is much smaller (300k vs 2.9mg).   Can you advise me which is the correct file size?   If the correct size is the one showing in windows (300K) does mean that the file compressed in JPG and lost a lot of information?

  and if this is the case how can I prevent that from happening and still save the file as a JPG?   [ I would like the image to remain the size photoshop shows it to be] .  Thank you very much.

Photoshop :: Reduced Quality In Full Screen Preview In CS6 Bridge

May 18, 2012

I have just moved up to CS6 after many years of using Elements - so am coping fairly well with my new "toy" !

One thing has me a bit baffled:

I store my photographs in two formats: the original in .nef and the processed final version in .psd.

If I select "full screen preview" of a .psd file, in Bridge, it comes up full screen, but not at what I would consider to be best quality.

If I export a copy at 800 or 1280 quality in .jpg and view it in Windows Photo Viewer (or open the file in Photoshop itself) there is a distinct difference in picture quality compared to Bridge. The Bridge copy seems to have slightly muted colours and the sharpness is markedly less. I have two monitors so can compare them side-by-side, and have transposed them on the monitors with no difference.

In Elements, I can have the organiser on one monitor, if I highlight a thumbnail and hit F11 I get a full screen and full quality view on the other monitor.

Is this a "design feature" of Bridge/CS6 ? or have I missed something when setting CS6 up in the first place ?

Photoshop :: Layer Size

I am facing a problem of adjusting layer size. I created a new document and I used a move tool to bring a movie poster to my document. Unfortunately, the picture is too large and I press The CTRL and+ buttons to adjust the size of this movie layer. But the result is that all the document (the background) is going to be small. How can I adjust only the size of the movie layer?

Photoshop :: Automation In Saving Image File With Specific Max File Size

Oct 18, 2013

Background info:
 
We got several image files every 2 weeks which should be edited and mainly reduced in size for web purpose. This work needs 1 work day for one man/woman to do, because he/she has to open the file save for web and then set the quality to a value were the file is nearly about 150-200 KB in size.
 
The images are different, some have few colors, some have a lot of colors and there are also different in resolution. But they should not be reduced in resolution, only in quality. All other specs of the image should be kept 
 
Is there any possible script, plug-in or similar which can do the same (Saving with a specific max. file size) in some automatic and faster way?
