Photoshop :: Print (save) Postscript Halftones Through RIP To Hi-rez TIFF Instead Of To Film?
Nov 25, 2012
I set up films for screenprinting for remote clents, so work at 35, 45 and 55 lpi a lot. The best way, of course, is to save a pdf with postcript halftones and angles set correctly and have the client print to film through their RIP. Most of my clients don't have RIPs and never will. So I end up working with the bitmap/halftone settings in Phtoshop a lot. It takes a long time. If I could print photoshop or Illustrator seps to hi rez .tiffs (I know they have to be 1200 ppi, but we can work with that) through a RIP via a virtual printer or some other thing, it would save me a lot of time.Â

I have a new HP Laserjet M712 B&W printer to replace my aging HP 5000 printer. I'm using X3 & X5 and have installed the HP Universal Postscript driver. The printer is Postscript 3 emulation capable. I have all the settings in the print dialog of Corel the same as the settings from my HP5000 printer, but the new printer fails to print halftones or "dots". The halftone areas are still printing as a solid although I have my screen frequency at 45lpi. Is this a Corel issue or is it a Windows 7 problem, or some kind of user error.Â

I've been using Corel X4 extensively for the last year to create screenprint designs for the company I now work for. Although some of my designs are extremely complex, they are straight 1-5 colors, which I seperate for printing myself.
My boss has purchased RIP software which I have a vague knowledge of using, however, I have no clue how to actually create the design that would need a halftone print and therefore, have never used the expensive RIP software to print with.

I require an equally spaced fine line shading in an extrusion. I will take you through my process and then get to the problem.
I create an object (usually curved text), extrude it and break the extrusion apart;  then I use the fill tool and open fill color dialog, change to palettes and select black, 20%; next I click on options and select Postscript options, from there I select line and an angle and frequency.  This produces exactly the fine line shading I need, when I print it on my postscript printer.
The problem is that when I save the file as an .eps or .ai file to send to another prepress, the screen in their file always show up as dots not lines. I have not been able to find a way around this, the other fill types use tiling and that does not produce the same consistent shading.

I am using PSE 12 as an external editor for Aperture. When I ask to use an external photo editor, Aperture creates a .tiff file in my Aperture folder, launches PSE 12 and tells it to edit that .tiff file. This all works great. When I am done editing in PSE 12, I ask it to save the file and it saves it back to the original Aperture folder with a .tif extension. I can instead say "save as" and then it suggests the file name with a .tif extension. When I correct the extension to .tiff it warns me that I'm going to overwrite the file (exactly what I want!). I say yes and then I find out that PSE did not overwrite the file, but wrote it as a .tif file anyway. I have to go to the folder, delete the .tiff file and rename the .tif file to .tiff and then everything is fine - but what a hassle.Â

URL....I am using PSE 12 as a photo editor for Aperture 3.5.1 and the photo is duplicated (as a tiff) in Aperture and PSE editor opens with the image. When I close the file and say to save the file it brings up the save as window.
Â
I tell PSE 12 to "on first save -- save over current file" it now brings up the "save as" window and won't save over the file (changes the file type from .tiff to .tif)

I am cleaning up the Hard Drive on my Mac G4. My scanned images are taking a great portion of the 80 Gig drive. I finished clearing my external drive by removing nearly 60 gigs of images by storing them on DVD. I will do the same for the Mac drive.
My trouble is that all my images are stored in TIFF format which takes up enormous space no matter the storage. Since I output images in various sizes, mainly prints, to 30 x 40 inches, I need a master image archived in the best format for such. However, I do not want to fill my drives, or DVD, with large files. Code:

I am trying to create a Chuck Close style image for a Fine Arts class. I created the base image by resizing my image to 4 px sq and 12" by 12". The image looks great when saved, meaning the pixels are sharply defined from one another. However, when I go to print, a dithering of a sort is added to the image and one pixel fades into another. I need precise sizes because I am actually gluing smaller images to the base as pixels. I would use the mosaic function, but the sizing never turns out right.

I have been going 'round in circles trying to decide whether to set my Lightroom external editing pref's for Photoshop as PSD or TIFF. I've very recently downloaded Photoshop - I'll be using it after I've done what I can in Lightroom, just for photo's - I've never used 'layers'
Â
1) I read somewhere that PSD might be easier (or necessary) if I need to re-edit. I also read PSD could be a good idea as it would be easy to see which is the master edit, and which files have been saved as TIFF, for print say
Â
2) I also read that you should never flatten a file, at least not until you need to (ie: save as TIFF for print) - any thoughts?
Â
3) My thoughts (mixed up though they may be!) are to say edit layers etc in PS (either TIFF or PSD) then just press 'save', but not flatten layers (I understand the PSD or TIFF will then be alongside my original raw file back in Lightroom, as LR/PS automatically does this). Then say for print I would then 'save as' a TIFF (ie: for printing), or JPEG (ie: for web), and this would automatically flatten the file. If this is correct, say I started off with the un-flattened PSD for example, would I need to firstly make a copy of the PSD, or would just doing a 'save as' still keep the original PSD 'master file'? Also, after I say did a 'save as' for a TIFF, could I then just delete the TIFF and do another 'save as' if I wanted to do another print in the future, or better to just keep the TIFF in Light room alongside the raw, master PSD or TIFF / JPEG?
Â
4) I won't be doing huge amounts in Photoshop, so would it be worth looking into using 'smart images / smart filters' - I'm just thinking that if document is not being flattened anyway would it be worthwhile?

Im using PS CS6. When trying to save a photo "Save As" a "jpg", the save as dialog box with the file name is automatically using the extension ".tiff". Im unable to save as a jpg file.

Why is this happening and how can it be corrected?

Question: I have a file in Tiff format (large file 145 MB) that I'm not able to print out of CS6. I've tried to save as JPEG, but have been unsuccessful because it is not an 8bit file.Â

In Photoshop CS6 when I save a TIFF file it saves with the .sgi extension. When I save a png it saves it with the .raw extension. I haven't had this problem with previous versions of PS. I'm on a Mac with OSX 10.6.8. I also noticed that I have a plugin in the Plugins folder that's called SGIRGB.plugin. What's going on with saving in these file types or what this plugin is?

I know that PSDs are the default file format, and I've read that CS6 is sticky and will save a file in the last file format that was saved.
Â
Here's my scenario:
Â
1. In Lightroom 5, I right-click on one of my RAW files (NEF) and select to edit in CC.
2. CC opens and I do some edits.
3. Trying to save the file.
    a. If I just "Save" the file, it saves as a TIFF.
    b. If I use "Save As..." the dialog is defaulted to a TIFF
Â
I've tried opening one file from LR into CC, saving it as a PSD, then closing CC hoping that it would be sticky, nope.
Â
How can I force CC to always default to save files as a PSD unless I tell it otherwise?

I saved one file as .tif and now after using RAW to process images, opening in CS3, trying to save, there are no options either .jpg or .pds. I had to open two previously saved .jpg files, before I had the full range of choices.

I am using PSE7 with ACR 5.6 on Windows 7 (soon to be updated to PSE 11). I have only been using RAW files for a short while so I am far from familiar with ACR but I am fairly sure that when I first installed it the "Save Image" dialog box offered me several file formats, in a drop down box, to save the image as. I remember tif, jpg, psd and dng at least. Now I am only offered dng (in both all uppercase and all lowercase). Am I remembering wrongly or have I changed something somewhere that is doing this? I can find no way to save the image other than as a dng. If it matters ACR is set to 8bits/channel and I am trying to convert NEF files opened by right clicking in the Organiser and selecting full edit where upon ACR opens.

I have tried re-downloading and replacing the Camera Raw.8bi file to no effect. I suspect it is me doing something wrong rather than anything being "broken".

When I try to create a Save As TIFF file, although TIFF shows in the Format line, what is created is a pbm file. It does it every time. Is there some way for me to create a TIFF file using Save As?

I work in publishing and convert hundreds of jpgs into tifs each month. In CS6 under save-as when I click on format> tif, I loose the end of my file name.
Eg Figure 8.7.jpg goes to Figure 8.tif >loosing the last part of the filename.
When I have a big list of files to run through, I need the saving process to be as quick as possible without having to alter the file name manually. Why this is happening, it was fine on CS3!
