Please Help, Issues when batch processing Multi Frame images in Fireworks
I hope someone will know how to do this and tell me where I am going wrong.
Objective 1
I have a large number of images that all have the exact same number of frames (4) and are all exactly the same size that I want to get resized, cropped and water marked (when I say 'watermarked I mean have my websites logo pasted in a specificlocation on each frame, I have my websites logo as a seperate .png file which I copy from).
Current Process
I create a command which will crop the image then paste my companys url/log onto the first frame, move it to the correct location on the frame then copy it again and then paste it onto each of the other frames, the command then resizes the image tot he exact proportions I want.
I start a batch process and use my command, making sure that I also export from the .png to animated gif (and I edit the settings to make it 256 animated gif).
Error 1
The process described above resizes and crops my images however it does NOT put the watermark in the correct place, it seems to put it int he right place on the first frame and then in a different place on all the followingn frames thus giving the effect of the watermark jumping around. Which is obviously NOT what I want.
Question 1
Please let me know what process I should be following to correct the Error 1 above.
Objective & Question 2
I want to do exactly the same thing as shown above but this time the files have a varying number of frames (from 2 to 45 frames (or instances as CS4 seems to call them)). Is there a way to paste my logo to the to the exact same location on ALL frames?
Other information
I have tried WHXY Paste extension and I can not see how to use that to solve the issue. I have also tried 'Paste in Place' however I can not see how to use the Paste In Place extension as it is not appering in my list of commands.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Andy
Andy, you could start a batch process which will do most of the things you are asking for. THe batch process can be done using Fireworks. The right way to start is going to Archivo / Procesar por Lotes and then follow all the different option this tool has to offer. Yes, I know I gave you the names in Spanish but that is the way I use Adobe Fireworks.
I hope this was usefull for you!

Please help with Javascript batch processing.
I'm looking to batch process a large number of PDFs. I need to decrease the font size of a few preoccupied form fields on all of these PDFs. The name of the form fields are Text8, Text15, Text16, and Text17. Alternatively, I could set the font size to a smaller size. What is the script that I would use in going about this?
You can use something like this in a Execute JavaScript-action:
var fieldsToChange = ["Text8", "Text15", "Text16", "Text17"];
for (var i in fieldsToChange) {
var f = this.getField(fieldsToChange[i]);
if (!f) continue;
f.textSize = 10;
Of course, you can change the font size you want to any other value (use 0 if you want it to be set as "Automatic"). -
Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The temporary file it saves is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes. I have been able to locate the file using GrandPerspective and close out of FCP to delete it. But when I try exporting the movie again it creates the ICMMultiPassStorage file again. I have made sure my scratch disks are set to my external hard drive so I know that isn't the issue. How do I fix this problem so these temporary files are not being stored on my internal hard drive instead of my external?Thanks!
Try exporting the timeline "using current settings" via Make QuickTime Movie, then submit that clip to Compressor for the transcode. This should be faster and less painful.

Hello, Please Help!
When I bring the mastered audio from Soundtrack pro back to final cut pro 7, the audio plays well at the beginning 3 mins later it doesn't sync.
Please Help!!!
EdgilMake sure your easy setup has the correct frame rate for your sequence. Seems crazy but somehow or other fcp assigns a frame rate to audio files. I've found this can sometimes be tricky to get right. Here's what I've done to force the issue. Make sure the easy setup frame rate reflects that of the target sequence in fcp. Create a new project. import the audio in the new project. And then copy the clip from the new project to your main project.
Good luck -
please help me < when update my i phone 3G < i finish update but face problem , appear me msg There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone You ar attempting to activate. Please disconnect
Sounds like your phone was hacked to use with your carrier. Updating it has relocked the phone to it's original carrier. You will not get the phone working again without a SIM from the original carrier.

Exif information when batch processing
Hi,
When i do a batch process on some images the program adds extra information like: "Software used".
Can i switch this off? I'm not asking the program to edit my EXIF file, so it shouldn't.
Thanks already.The "software" fields in the EXIF and XMP metadata are industry-defined fields that let you track which programs have been used to modify your images, in the same way that other fields let you track the camera or scanner and exposure information. Many image-manipulation programs set those fields.
There is no way to turn off the use of those fields in PSE, but you can use a third-party utility such as Exiftool or ExiftoolGUI to clear the fields on a batch of images. -
Good morning There is a stop at the camera Please help me When you turn on the camera Shut down automatically
I'm in iraqAdobe Reader is free. It always has been.
You have obviously downloaded and installed Acrobat (30 day trial version) and the trial period has expired.
You need to uninstall Acrobat (using the Control Panel and Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features [Vista/7])
Then run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
to completely remove the Acrobat installer files.
Then download Reader 9, install it, and go about reading PDFs for free.
EDIT: Please, please please.... do NOT post a phone number in the forums.
You're inviting trouble if you do.
Not everyone who reads these pages is here to help fellow Adobe product users.

Please help. When I click on the download folder then MBP crashes
Please help. When I click on the download folder then MBP crashes
I see. Not good. Does this happen when you click on it in the Dock? What about in your home folder? What about in the Finder sidebar?
Standard troubleshooting things to try:
* Hold command-r while starting up to get into Recovery Mode. Run DIsk Utility and "Repair Disk". (This is probably a good idea in any case because of the possible disk errors which could accumulate due to all the freezing.)
* Hold shift down while starting up to get into Safe Mode. Does the bad behavior persist while in Safe mode?

I can't update my iPad to iso 5 please help. When I go to settings and then to general it doesn't have an update button for "check for updates". Thanks
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

ACR use of workdisk and scratchdisk when batch processing images
I am setting up a new PC optimized for PS, and I and pondering on the optimal disk setup for ACR when I batch process several images:
Alternative 1
2 physical disk in raid 0 with 2 partitions, partition 1 for scratch and the second for images to work on.
The question is if there ever will be a conflict in the sence that PS/ACR wants to access both scratch- and work partitions at the same time? If this should occure, I guess the following is a better setup??:
Alternative 2
1 physical disk for scratch
1 physical disk for images to work on
ChristopherThank you Ramón,
I am not limited to 2 drives. I am planning on having OS and programs on a third separate disk.
The point of using alternative 1 would be to use RAID 0 to obtain faster read/write (both for scratch and for reading and saving images on the work partition. However, if scratch usage competes with read/write to the work partition, I'm probably better off with alternative 2. If I work on one image this is simple, however I frequently batch process several RAW images. How does ACR/PS handle this? If all the images initially are read from the work partition and loaded into RAM + scratch and processed there, there will be no competition between the two partitions and I will benefit from the RAID solution. However, if the images are read one or just a few at a time, processed in RAM/scratch and then saved to the work partition, I imagine scratch and work partition could be competing for the the disks read/write head when finished images are being saved and ACR is "waiting" for more images to process?? -

Does Acrobat Pro version 9 support Multi-frame/image TIF

Ok I'm probably missing something here. I found examples and documenation for AVConversionConvertToPDF
However, it all seems to be in C. My trouble seems to stem from my not being able to figure what object to declare for which that method is a member of.
Is not AVConversionConvertToPDF not supported in VB? Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.
