Stupidly Large Image Editing Problems

So I got some 10x14's the other day of my dad riding his old interceptor which were decent looking with a lot of noise and print errors and decided to clean them up. Found a 6 year old photo scanner that scanned to 2400DPI, though that was over kill so I scanned to 1200DPI......hahaha
Now I have a bunch of images that are 10400x13680 or so pixels. . .
RAW File size at 30mb, many laughs were had by all
But now running aperture at 200% with stock fans maxxed out and a set of secondary fans running at 3500rpm I CANNOT half-way edit the image for my life.
If the computer doesnt freeze, aperture doesnt crash, and the editing software doesnt explode, I still cannot save the edited file.
Any recommendations please?

Try scanning at a lower rate like 300dpi, I find this is usually acceptable for old photos that you will use on the web or even printing.

  • PSE 9 Image edit problem

    I have recently upgraded to PSE 9 on my iMac having used PSE 6 without any problems for a while.  PSE 9 does everything well except cropping.  When I use the crop tool then select the green tick to complete the crop the image "disappears".  When I say disappears I mean it shows as a size of 0.04cm x 0.04cm.  Any effort I do to resize it back to something original has no effect.  Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?  I haven't seen any mention of this on the Forums so I am assuming it is not a bug with PSE 9....or is it?

    The first thing you need to try is clicking on the dropdown menu at the far left of the options toolbar and select Reset tool. If this doesn't work, it might be that the preferences file has corrupted during the upgrade. You will need to reset it by holding Cmd, Opt and Shift when you launch the editor from the welcome screen.

  • Editing very large images

    I have several very large images that require minor editing. The tasks that I require are only basic rotation, cropping, and maybe minor color adjustments.
    The problem is that the images range from 20780 x 15000 px down to 11150 x 2600 px.
    With images this size, when I try to perform any operation on the entire image, like a 3 deg rotation, fireworks simply times out. Maybe it is because it can't generate the preview image at that size, maybe it simply can't calculate the image at that size. If it is just the preview image, is there a way to lower the quality (say, jpeg quality of 5%) of the preview image only but when I export the image, I can keep it at 100%?
    Thank you,
    -Adam
    (Yes, I did search, but the forums search seemed mildly useless and engine results consistently returned nothing)

    Fireworks is not designed to work with images of this size. It's a screen graphics application. Photoshop would be a better option here, or other software designed for working with high resolution files.

    What edition of LR 5? What edition of ACR does PSCS 6 contain. If they are not parallel (same edition number x in [5 or 8].x ), is LR making a tiff or psd rendition of the image?

  • Problem converting XPS document with large images

    Hi,
    When I try to convert XPS documents to PDF in Acrobat 9.0 Pro, I have problems with "large images". They are either truncated or scaled down. The only images that convert correctly are small images that are not stretched to fill a large area. Attached to this message is a simple example. Does anyone know a way to correct this problem? By the way, the page is slightly larger than the standard Letter size.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your suggestion! In fact, I am the programmer who creates the XPS files from a .NET document. Our company used the method "Postscript + PDF" during a few months and it worked quite well. Recently, we introduced semi-transparent objects and fonts in our documents and the resulting PS prints look really bad. Since I can create a perfect XPS document, and since Acrobat can convert it to PDF, I gave it a try. It solved all the problems that I had with PS printing but there is that thing with images... Anyway, since Acrobat converts XPS to PDF, I guess they should try to solve the bug with the images. As for me, I will see if I can get a component to create PDF documents directly from our application.

  • Problem rotating a large image

    Application description:
    A JFrame with a control panel at the bottom, which contains a couple of JSlider's which controls the scaling, translation and rotation of a BufferedImage using an AffineTransform.
    JDK used:
    1.5.0_04
    Problem description:
    The application works fine when using a "normal" sized image. But when I use a large image (1600x1200) the application seems to freeze. The GUI isn't drawn, just the infamous grey rectangle. I've narrowed it down to the rotation. If I comment out the AffineTransform.rotate call, the application works fine and the very large image is displayed in all it's glory, with translate and scale still applied.
    Is this due to some limitation of AffineTransform?

    Scale and translate would be less intensive than
    rotate.possibly, but my guess is probably not.
    If you have a world matrix that everything gets multiplied through, rotate, tranlate and scale all should be pretty fast.
    To rotate such a large image would be very cpu
    intensive and probably require a substantial amount
    of memory. You may want to check your computerAgain maybe, but IMO very unlikely. If Java uses a world matrix (and I've got no idea how else it could do things like scale or rotate) then there should be no or almost no penalty for transformations. And you certainly wouldn't need any more memory.
    performance during the operation to determine if your
    computer is being bogged down.Would be difficult to test for individual graphics operations, but you could check as to whether the CPU gets pinned while painting.

  • Web Flash Gallery: Problem setting Large Images size

    When using the Lightroom Flash Gallery I am not able to change the size of the Large Images (Web | Appearance | Large Images | Size). When I set the size to Medium or Small, the large images always ends up with the same size as when set to Large. Only when setting the size to Extra Large there is a slight change in size.
    How can I change the Large Images size to Medium and Small?

  • Unable to create large image file in iphoto

    I make a lot of panoramic images by stitching together overlapping images with hugin in TIFF format, then edit them in iphoto and use it to export them in jpeg format for greater versitality of use. So far I haven't had any trouble, even with large images as big as ~25,000x2000 pixels and ~90MB file size.
    However, I have come across a problem recently trying to export an edited version of a particularly large one - 38,062x1799 136MB file size. I can export an unedited version to jpeg without trouble, but when I tried to export an edited version it gave me an error saying it couldn't create the file. I looked around here for solutions and found the suggestion to check the file size in finder, it was zero. After experimenting I've found that the file size goes to zero as soon as any changes are made to the file, the edited image can still be viewed in iphoto, but does not display if you try to zoom in. I have tried making the TIFF file again with hugin to see if it is a problem with the file, but I also experience the same problem with the newly made file.
    I am working on a Macbook air (1.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory, Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB, Version 10.7.5 OS X) in iphoto '11 version 9.2.2 (629.40). Any suggestions for getting round this issue?

    I thought of something that might help with working out what's going on.
    After I make any edits to the image, if I move on to the info tab the image initially goes a bit blurry as it often does with large images, but instead of coming up as a clear image after a few seconds like normal, I get the image I've attached here and the file size changes to zero. To be able to see the thumbnail of the edited image I need to come back out to the library again, but the file size is still zero. If I revert to original the file size is restored.

  • Lightroom 4. I have a large image (scanned) 10,000 X 14000 which does not Render when I try to print or export.   Regular sized images work fine.

    In Lightroom 4:Mac OS 10.6.8.     I have an expecially large image (scanned) which is 10,000 X 14,000.  I have edited it but when I try to print or export the image, it starts to "Rendering Page" but gets stuck and is unable to complete the task before it times out.    When I use normal sized photo images (raw), it works fine.  I suspect the problem is related to the size of the file.   Is there some way I can reduce the size of the image while in Lightlroom?   Or is there any other solution? 

    You originally posted on a thread that really wasn't related to your problem, so I branched the discussion.
    Check the Windows System Event Viewer to see the details of the crash, most importantly the name of the faulting module.
    Most crashes on Open or Save are due to OS bugs (especially on MacOS) or bugs in third party extensions to the OS open and save dialogs.

  • How to dispaly large images?

    Hi!
    I have a simple problem, hope somebody could help me!
    I would like to display images from a LONG RAW type column of an Oracle database (Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.0.0) in a BC4J application. I use JDEV 9.0.3.
    The wizard generated entity object's attribute type for the image field is raw, i could not find the LONG RAW type in the java types. The maximun size of the raw type is 2000 bytes, so my app can not handle and display large images. How could i solve this problem? Pls help me!
    I have read the otn forum tips, but they did not help me :((
    Thanx
    Bence

    You may try mapping your column to BlobDomain!
    If that doesn't fit the need, you'd have to create a similar LobDomain (see BlobDomain.java source in bc4jdomorcl.zip) for LongRawDomain so that it uses streamnig apis to fetch data from jdbc rather than using a column-value fetch.

  • Read large images fast?

    Hello all,
    I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this but here goes. I am working on creating an image viewer application and so far its going great. But i've noticed one problem when reading large images typically over 1 megabyte in size. These images using <tt> ImageIO.read() </tt> takes anywhere from 1 to two seconds to finish loading. I've searched all over the web for faster methods of reading large images but I haven't had any luck. Here is an example of what code i'm using to read an image.
    try {
         BufferedImage b = ImageIO.read(someLargeImageFile); // this is slow for images over 1MB in size.
    } catch(Exception err) {
    }So my question is does anyone have any tips or tricks I could use to read large images faster. I see programs like iPhoto reading images up to 5MB in size in under one second. Just wondering what I could do to read these kind of images just as fast.
    Thank you for your help :)

    And if the JVM is recent and has a lot of RAM available, and you have eliminated any storage bottlenecks, have you tried Java Advanced Imaging?
    http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jai/
    I've used it to process image files in the hundreds of MB size range, and while I don't have any benchmarks handy I'd be surprised if those files were processed much if any slower than the processing speed you're getting with your much smaller files.I'm using the most current JVM, lots of RAM is available the application i'm developing can use up to 1.5 GB of RAM on the current machine. I'm using Mac OS 10.6 but the problem occurs on all operating systems i've tested it on including, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Mac OS 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, and Linux. I develop the software on an iMac which I just recently reformatted to factory settings so there are little to no other processes fighting over that storage.
    I've heard of JAI and just really never gave it a second thought cause I never really needed any more features then ImageIO gave me. However does Java Advanced Imaging read images in a different way then ImageIO would? I'm beginning to think that it isn't so much the actual size of the file but the dimensions. Even small files in the 100kilobyte range load slow because there dimensions are large for example 3000x3000. Though i'm assuming those 100 megabyte images you processed with speed also had large dimensions?
    Now for a moment I was thinking it was something in the BufferedImage class that was taking a long time to process and not the ImageIO class. However the following proves that wrong.
    try {
         ImageIO.read(someLargeImageFile);
    } catch(Exception err) {
    }The above code doesn't even use a buffered image so I guess its down to something in the ImageIO class. I'll see if I have better luck with JAI but can someone explain why this might be faster then using ImageIO.read() or if there are any other tips or ticks to reading large images such as these faster?
    Thank you for your help :)

  • How to load a large image for display on the Palm PDA

    Hello:
    I have a large image I would like to display on LV for Palm PDA. The documentation states there should be a 64K chunk limitation for VIs to compile on the Palm. Therefore, I decided to break this image up into 2D arrays of less than 64K per subVI. My 3.2 Meg image therefore has about 224 2D array subVIs. My motivation is to somehow use the build array function (with concatenate inputs) to reconstruct the image at runtime. I can compile each 2D array subVI as a test, but my attempt to reassemble and compile is futile. When I try to use the build array with only 8 of these subVIs in a top level VI the compiler complains its still too big of a VI. Using get info, memory for this top level states total ~2
    3K of memory usage.
    So can someone help me with this problem. Is there another way to load this size of an image into memory so I can display it on a picture control?
    BTW, this can build on LV for PocketPC.
    Thank you
    Robert

    Hi Robert,
    You are correct in that one of the limitations of the Palm OS is that files cannot be larger than 64 KB in size (as stated on page 5-3 of the LabVIEW PDA Module User Manual). The suggested workaround is indeed to have a top-level PDA VI that calls subVIs, and this top-level VI can then have a total file size larger than 64 KB.
    My suspicion is that with the picture control on the Palm OS, even if you are breaking up the image into smaller subVIs, the process of building the array to reassemble the picture is still forcing the Palm to allocate memory for each of those 2D array subVIs to place on the top-level VI's picture control
    and thus causing the Palm to complain about not having enough memory. The LabVIEW PDA User Manual also states that "There is a total limit of 64 KB on all front panel array data". Thus, when you are trying to use the build array on the top-level VI, the 64 KB limit on front panel array data is still being exceeded -- even with only 8 of these subVIs.
    The following KnowledgeBase article KB 38EJRHFQ: How Do I Put a Picture or Image on My LabVIEW PDA for Palm Front Panel? states that as a workaround, you can shrink the size of your image by using 4-bit or 1-bit data instead of the standard 8-bit pixmap representation.
    This is really just a limitation of the Palm OS and the fact that there is simply no way of displaying that much front panel information for your picture. Either way, you would need to build up the array of pixels for your bitmap, and for a 3.2 MB image, I don
    't believe there is any way for the Palm OS PDA to display the image in its entire at once.
    Sorry about that...
