how to create an action or droplet that will automatically discard the embedded profile of an image so I can apply a custom color profile.
Photoshop CS2 doesn't seem to want to record this part of my process using an action or droplet.
I process thousands of images, and I don't have time to sit and click "Discard the embedded profile (don't color manage)".
Failing that, do I need to write a script?
I wish to check my understanding of embedded profiles. I will have to print out from a second machine that I will not have the ICC profile I am using installed.
You use Edit>Convert to Profile Edit>Color Settings is set to preserve profiles File>Save As is has the color management box checked with the correct profile.
When you open the file on a second machine you use Print with the following settings:Photoshop manages Color Printer Profile - If the profile is not installed on that machine will the original people appear?Disable Printers color management.Will the image print out in correct profile? What about point 6.
I haven't had this problem in CS5 photoshop but when I upgraded to CS6 photoshop I followed the recommended settings like using ProPhoto RBG.I edit in the working space colour management but not always have the same results on screen...have calibrated my monitor.
Then when it does look correct on screen and I re-import into Photoshop, my picture turns out bright red and I need to use Adobe RBG (1998). I am saving the pictures with the profile embedded, works better with Adobe RBG.What should I be using as the settings as well as management policies - currently Preserve Embedded Profiles?I don't want to have nice looking pictures in Photoshop and then have them print incorrectly or look terrible on another monitor
The color workspace of Lr is linear ProPhoto. If we have a TIFF file with the embedded color profile, like ProPhoto 1.8, does Lr use embedded color space (Prophoto 1.8 in this case) as workspace instead of its standard workspace?

Idea for sorting through all of my CDR files and striping out the color profiles without opening each one by hand?

Trying to find ICC Profiles. I am a college student going for my BS in Photography. Our assignment is to take photo paper from three different manufactures and download the ICC Profiles for each of our papers chosen. Let me tell you this is not as easy as it seems! Where I can find the profiles for Adobe PS for different types of photo paper. Each manufacture only gives the ICC profile for their products. No scanned profiles are available.

Currently it requires me to set them to static, then back to dynamic and they update.
I am well aware of the issue of dreffed surface profiles staying static. I am using the work around of dreffing in the surface and sampling in the drawing using the dreffed alignment.

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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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 ...
Is there a way to automate certain actions in Photoshop?
My most common task:
- select x by x pixels
- copy merged
- new file > from clipboard
- paste
- save as .gif (confirm the 3 dialog boxes)
Is it possible to express the scroll bar or other parameters with the automated pdf tool?

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?

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 have 20 files that i need crop with same settings how can i automate that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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!

How to convert all at once to jpegs of a certain dimension?
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.
