Saving a large psb as a jpeg/bmp

I have a large psb file which is an image of 39k by 27k pixels at 48 bpp. The image size is about 5.7 GB. PS CS6 trial only gives me the option to save it as a TIFF or Photoshop RAW only. I would like to use this large image as a master copy from which I can sample lesser quality images for printing. How can I save such images as a JPG or BMP file, that is downsample it and place the result in a smaller jpg or bmp file?
I read some other similar discussions and they all concern problems with the plugins folder. I have not inserted any plugins from previous CS versions. The only plugins that I have in there are authorized CS6 plugins for the scanner fix from Adobe.
Is it even possible to downsample from such a large image?
Thanks

Yes, you could cretainly downsample it.
And remember that most file formats can't go beyond 30-32k pixels in either dimension, or 2 GB file size.

Image is not saved in jpeg/bmp file but ok with png

Hi i am unable to save the image in disk in jpeg format.
Here is the code.
public void saveImage(){
//if no filechooser is there means no image file opened.
        if(fileChooser==null){

When i omit the line OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(saveFile);
and write only
ImageIO.write((RenderedImage) bufferedImage, outExtension,saveFile);
//out.flush();
then saving the image even in "png" also fails.
The following is the error code:

How can I save large PSB files so that LR 5 recognizes them?

I have saved large PSB files but LR doesn't recognize them. They are greyed out.

LR does not support layers so if You save a Layered Tiff or PSD that LR can open I believe all you would wind up with is a composite layer for the file content. Since Lr can not use layers and image file formats use compression I get the impression that a single layer document would need to a have very large amount of pixels to generate a compressed file that is over 2GB in size. I don't think I would even want to use Photoshop on a image that contains that many pixels. I don't use Lr so PSB is not a problem for me. Still Photoshop is a Pixel Editor however I don't think it would be very useful manipulating a billion pixels or more. I also don't know why someone would want to use LR on a layered file I don't believe Lr can save a layered file.
I have no desire to even download Lr for I I'm not very organized and can't type. So I have no need for Lr library and databases. Also I don't want two UI over Adobe RAW Conversion engine. One Adobe UI is a better option to me.
Tiff format files I beleive has a 4GB size limit PSB format files does not have that limit. Using your logic why offer Tiff they can not save large documents.
PSD was around before we had the need of huge image file. Many PSD exist they should not be rendered useless for lack of support.

With journaling, I have found that my computer is saving a large amount of data, logs of all the changes I make to files; how can I clean up these logs?

With journaling, I have found that my computer is saving a large amount of data, logs of all the changes I make to files; how can I clean up these logs?
For example, in Notes, I have written three notes; however if I click on 'All On My Mac' on the side bar, I see about 10 different versions of each note I make, it saves a version every time I add or delete a sentence.
I also noticed, that when I write an email, Mail saves about 10 or more draft versions before the final is sent.
I understand that all this journaling provides a level of security, and prevents data lost; but I was wondering, is there a function to clean up journal logs once in a while?
Thanks

Are you using Microsoft word? Microsoft thinks the users are idiots. They put up a lot of pointless messages that annoy & worry users. I have seen this message from Microsoft word. It's annoying.
As BDaqua points out...
When you copy information via edit > copy, command + c, edit > cut, or command +x, you place the information on the clipboard. When you paste information, edit > paste or command + v, you copy information from the clipboard to your data file.
If you edit > cut or command + x and you do not paste the information and you quite Word, you could be loosing information. Microsoft is very worried about this. When you quite Word, Microsoft checks if there is information on the clipboard & if so, Microsoft puts out this message.
You should be saving your work more than once a day. I'd save every 5 minutes. command + s does a save.

Depending on which email client software you use
the files should be in 'your home folder' library, esp.
if you use Mail application.... ~/Library/Mail
Since you don't specify what mail application,
that would most be associated with the file.
I notice there are some items to the right of your post
where it says "more like this' so that may be worth a
look to see if similar issues were answered. Also, the
Help viewer in your system is a searchable database.
Seems that google also brings up fair information, too.
Do you have a complete bootable clone of your entire
Mac system on an externally enclosed hard disk drive?
Good luck & happy computing!

How to compress image files, jpeg, bmp, gif, png, tiff, etc

I am new to Jave imaging, does anybody know how to compress an image file, including jpeg, bmp, gif, png, tiff format.
Thanks
JC

some are already compressed.
If you just want generic compression, it doesn't really matter what type of file they are. A simple approach would be to use ZipOutputStream

Saving large tiff files as jpeg

Hello, experts:
I scanned, as a tiff file, a full-centre spread of a large newpaper. This had to be scanned in eight sections, the pages were so big on my A4 scanner window. When I joined all the sections up in Photoshop CS5, the size of the file was huge (about 21 inches by about 19 inches) It is also digitally large (about 320 MB, since the resolution is 300 dpi). Because I want to keep the composite photo but don't want the file to be so digitally large, yet need the good resolution, I thought it would be a good idea to save it as a jpeg file, which would give me the dimensions I need but not be so digitally bulky as the original. On pressing the drop-down menu for Saving As, the jpeg option did not appear in the dialogue box. Why is this, and how may I save the file in jpeg format? With grateful thanks to any/all that can offer a helpful response,
True to form

Curt, I'm very appreciative of the help you have given so far. However, I did try to change the image to an 8-bit as you recommended, and, though it is possible to make this change, and thereby reduce the sheer amount of data in the photo, when I click to choose 8-bit, the picture goes all bright and weird. This is because when I click on 8-bit, a window also arises, called HDR toning. In this window are lots of sliders, and, try as I may, it does not seem to be possible to adjust anything to make the picture normal in appearance. If you have any useful comment on what to do to make the picture like it is before the change to 8-bit, I should be glad to hear it. Thanks in anticipation.

Saving files larger than 2gb in Photoshop CC

I'm working with a large file for print and it's 2.07G with layers, and I'm getting the error when attempting to save the file that it's over the 2GB maximum. I'm not seeing .psb in the dropdown menu for saving large files. Any guidance on how to get around this and save the file? I checked Preferences: File Handling and don't see anything useful there...
Thanks!
Kirsten

You might try a reset before re installing: Press Cmd+Opt+Shift (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Win) immediately after initiating Photoshop startup. Select "yes" when prompted. You have to be fast to get the keys pressed before Photoshop starts opening.
Please check back to let us know what works!

Photos saved too large

When I open iphoto, I see all my pictures as thumbnails on the screen. If I double click to edit them, they will not open. The size seems very large, maybe that could be the problem? I don't know how to change the settings to change the size of the pictures (how they are saved), or if there is another problem that needs to be addressed. Any help?

First go into iPhoto's Preferences. See what it says beside "Edit photos in..." If you want to edit in iPhoto then choose iPhoto. Or, if you have another image editor you can choose "Application" and navigate to your choice of app.
If the preference is set to iPhoto, yet it won't open, try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist. It is found inside User/ Library/ Preferences.
The size of your photos should not be an issue. What is their format (jpeg, tiff, other...) and how big are they?

Saving a PDF file as a JPEG

When a user is trying to save a PDF file as a JPEG, in Adobe 8 Professional, they go to File and Save As it is coming up with the message "Acrobat could not save a page in this document because of the following error: The image is too wide to output. Please crop it to reduce resolution and try again (page 1)." There is a box that says Ignore all occurrences in this document. If I check it, and hit the "Ignore" button, it does not save. The default printer is set for a 48" wide plotter so the fact that it is too wide is not an issue.

I am encountering this same issue. In my case the file is rather a large one, but I can not seem to make appropriate changes to make it save as a .jpg. Does anyone have tips or suggestions?
"Acrobat could not save a page in this document because of the following error:
The image is too wide to output. Please crop it or reduce resolution and try again. (Page 1)"
This is a one-page document, a composite of several images and text that I wish to save as a .jpg and send for a photographic print.
The original file was created in Illustrator; I have since been told that might not be the best place for what I'm doing but at this point I have a lot of hours invested and no desire to restart.
I was unable to export as a .jpg from illustrator, seem to have a very hard time getting the file into indesign, but I have managed to create a .PDF from the illustrator file and now am attempting to work around by bringing the PDF into photoshop.

Saving a BufferedImage to disk in JPEG format

Hi,
How do I save a BufferedImage to disk in jpeg format. I guess I will have to use a jpeg encoder for that purpose. Where do I get free jpeg encoders ?? And using the encoders how do I write the encoded image to the disk??
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jaydeep

I use it for saving PNG images.
You can use similar code for JPEGs.
ByteArrayOutputStream os=new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PNGCodec p=new PNGCodec();
ImageEncoder pe=p.createImageEncoder("PNG",os,null);
BufferedImage bi=new BufferedImage(w,h,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
bi.getGraphics().drawImage(icon.getImage(),0,0,null);
pe.encode(bi);
byte[] ba=os.toByteArray();
i use JAI library for this purpose.
best regards

Colour problems saving Ilustrator file to pdf and jpeg (blacks go brown + some quality is lost)

Hi,
I was wandering id anybody could help me with a problem that has plagued me for a few projects now. I can't seem to find a solution.
When I have a file in Illustrator that I want to save as or export as a PDF or JPEG whenever I save it the colours shift and the quality drops.
Most noticiably black boxes goes to a muddy brown when saved to JPEGS, but I have also noticed tones in Photographs change quite a lot when saving as PDF.
I have tried to tweek every type of setting there is. higher resoulution, compression, sampling, down sampling, PDF preset, print quality etc.but nothing seems to sort it out. PDF's arent as much as a problem as the JPEG but the only way I have managed to get a PDF up to a reasonable standard is by wacking everything up so there is no compression or downsampling which makes ginat files I cant email....
Im sure the problem probably lies within the combination of each of these together but I cant seem to find out what that is.
Has anybody else had this problem or know how to fix it? I have been searching blogs for so long?
Thanks
Leo
(Before saving to JPEG)
(After)
Notice the black box with text in has turned a bit brown
Also brown in the seat base has gone more orange and the whole picture has generaly lost quality.

Leo,
The file is CMYK Color Mode. Do you export to a CMYK JPEG or an RGB one?
It is conceivable that the colour conversion of photographs (which are originally RGB) may cause the PDF issue.
Obviously, you will have to choose a Color Mode. If (also) intended for print, the obvious choice is CMYK, but that often affects the appearance or artwork/images originally created in RGB.
Colour management/settings and calibration may also be significant.

Saving a raw file as a jpeg

When I save a raw file as a high-quality jpeg, I am losing a lot of information and the image becomes a lot smaller when reopened. How do I prevent this?

The actual size of the file in megabytes cannot be a criteria for quality of the image. JPEG compression will work differently on every image depending on the image contents. Some images will compress a lot more than others. When you say that the JPEG is smaller, Could you share the actual pixel dimensions of the raw and JPEG images. What are you using to create your JPEG files?
Just one other comment. It seems to me that it would be extremely difficult to create a 50 MB JPEG image. It would be absolutely huge in size. I'm guessing that the site you are using is allowing the loading of file formats other than JPEG if they are allowing file sizes that large.

Can't save images as jpg, jpeg, bmp, etc. only as Preview Document or All Files.

I'm running Firefox 27.0 on OSX 10.9. When I try to save an image from a website I'm only given the option to save the file as a Preview Document or All Files. I cannot save the image as it exists on the website (ie. jpg, jpeg, gif.) Right now I'm saving as a Preview Document, opening that in preview and then exporting the file as an image. I'd like to just save the file directly from a website as an image rather than a Preview Document. How do I do this?

Can't you give the file the correct file extension for that image (e.g. .jpg) when you save the file?
Try to rename (or delete) the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all file actions.

Image format conversion (.SDT to .JPEG / .BMP / .TIFF images)

Hello All;
I am developing a Labview software module for our TCSPC (Time Correlated Single Photon Counting) laser microscope. A part of my module generates .SDT images via the Becker-Hickl SPC-830 photon counter. I want to convert those images to BMP / JPEG / TIFF within labview if possible,
Does anyone has done this before, or has any idea how to do this?
Thanks,

First, thanks to all who replied. Second, i do have the full developmental version of labview. Third, i developed a VI that takes in the .SDT file and uses "read binary file" to extract 2D Integer array data and passes it to "flatten to pixmap" function that passes the image data to the function "Write Flattened Pixmap" and then a picture to show the result.
When I try this VI on an SDT file, i get this error:
Error 116 occurred at Read from Binary File in Untitled 1
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: Unflatten or byte stream read operation failed due to corrupt, unexpected, or truncated data.
I have also attached the VI that i made,
Please help if anyone knows whats wrong..
Thanks once again,
