What algorithm is used by Export module when resizing a picture?

Is it using the same choices as Photoshop (Bicubic Smoother for enlarging, Bicubic Sharper for downsizing)? There are times when I prefer to use Smoother even when downsizing, as the Sharper algorithm results in over-sharpening (to my taste), but there does not seem to be a way to choose a specific one. Are there any workarounds for the lack of choices in the Export module?

Rob, thank you very much for your suggestions.
1. Yes, I had already selected no output sharpening.
2. The pictures are not over-sharpened to begin with (at least to my eyes). The issue is that in my workflow I do a bit of selective (or creative) sharpening, beyond the capture sharpening, on the full size file as imported from the camera or the scanner. At this point, I can get prints from this file and everything is fine, I do not downsize for that. However, if I want to post the picture on a web site, or share it by email, I usually downsize it to manageable pixel dimensions (or required dimensions by the web site). This is where I thought the additional sharpening implemented by LR could lead to oversharpening.
3. I'm not sure I follow you here, but I agree that post-processing after LR has already sharpened the file during the downsizing would not lead to an improvement. Is that what you meant?
I should add that I have not done extensive testing with the LR Export module, so it may well be that, as you say, it does a nice job and it does not cause over-sharpening. I'll try it and see how it does. I was just asking the question because of my experience with Photoshop and the Bicubic Sharper choice when downsizing.

  • What is the Use of Text Module Radio buton in Smartforms

    Hi all,

    Text modules
    Text modules are used to centrally store texts that are used frequently in forms in the system.
    Text modules are included in forms using texts nodes. The text node can either refer to the text module or take its text. You can then change the text or add to it to suit the form.
    Text modules have the following attributes:
    They are client-independent
    They are connected to the transport system
    They are connected to the translation tools in the system
    The third attribute means that a text module can be uniquely assigned to a language using the logon language. When including a text module, you can also access translations of the text module, for example, to include an English text module in a German form.

  • When resizing a picture in photo shop elements ?

    When resizing a picture in photo shop elements 7,
    can somebody explain the difference between bi-cubic and bi-cubic smoother?

    Hello,
    The way I understand it is this:
    When you resize an image for sending to someone or viewing on the web or a monitor the size should be 640x480 pixels. You are actually making your image smaller and Adobe recommends using 'bicubic sharper'.
    When you resize an image for printing you want to check your ppi or pixels per inch. Ideally it should be 300ppi with 200ppi being the lowest density for an acceptable print. A point to remember is that Canon cameras usually come in at 180ppi so check your camera and set it for the highest quality in the camera menu. Adobe recommends choosing 'bicubic smoother'.
    The choice is actually yours to make in either case. If you don't like what you see choose one of the other resampling choices to get what you want.

  • Bridge crashes when I use the export panel (when I try to specify a folder)

    Hi all!
    Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
    I can't just use "move" or "copy" to because I want to change the file format as well as move it.
    Has anyone encountered this?
    I already have the bridge 4.05.11 update installed.
    Any solutions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks, Karen

    Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
    In the export panel at the top right is a small menu icon, if you click on it and from the two options choose manage modules.
    Next to ' select modules to enable' is a small icon of a toothed wheel. Click on it and first choose check for update (probably showing non available but give it a try) and then choose reinstall all modules. Restart Bridge and check if it is working. If still not restart Bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences and see if that worked for you.
    And there are other ways to save as new file format in new location. Assuming you have Photoshop also active go to the Bridge menu Tools / Photoshop and choose 'image processor, explore the options and set them to your wshes. You can also create an action in Photoshop for this goal and instead of image processor choose Batch and find the action you created

  • What algorithm is used to Sort Photos?

    I've read a LOT of posts asking about the sorting order for photos within an album.
    No one has yet to provide an accurate answer about the sorting algorithm/method used. Some people say to use iPhoto (I have a PC so I can't) which isn't an answer. Other people refer to editing some metadata. No one seems to be answering the main question:
    What data is used to sort photos?
    File Name (alphabetical) ?
    File creation date?
    File modified date?
    Size?
    Type?
    Some (hidden) tag like an mp3 has?
    It's gotta be something!
    What is it?

    Well, I figured it out.
    It uses the Created Date to sort files.
    On my PC, I use a freeware program called AttributeMagicFree
    to change the created date and now sorting works as I expect.

  • Possible to use coordinates for SCALEABOUT when resizing?

    when resizing and object, I'd like to be able to scale from a specified coordinate.  Is this possible?

    So where am I going wrong.  I figured this would be easy, but it's not scaling about the right point.
    tempOrigin = activeDocument.pageOrigin;
    pageOrigin = sText.position;
    sText.resize(scaleFactor, scaleFactor, true, true, true, true, scaleFactor, Transformation.DOCUMENTORIGIN);

  • What should I use to export from FCP to DVDSP?

    I'm sorry if this question is too basic, but I've searched past discussions and read the manual, and can't seem to find the answer. I am trying to put a nearly hour-long movie I made onto a DVD, in order to have hundreds of duplicates made. I'm using DVD SP, and I had been exporting my movie from FCP to a Quicktime movie file, then importing the Quicktime file into DVD SP. Then recently I came across something online that said you should actually be exporting from FCP to Compressor, then to DVD SP. I've never used Compressor before, so I have no idea what to do, or if I even should be doing it. The video was fine when I exported to Quicktime, but I of course want to have the best video quality possible.. so if there's a way to keep the video at the highest quality possible (higher than when using Quicktime), please let me know (and if it could be explained as simple as possible, I would appreciate that).

    Hi Ryan,
    I'm relatively new to this too but you're on the right track. I would export to Compressor.
    There are various settings i.e. mpeg2 fast encode, high quality 60min, 120min, widescreen, 4:3 etc and all dependant upon what you want your end result to be.
    You'll need to choose your format - I suggest mpeg2 - 60min High Quality Encode > your destination for both the video and audio > 'submit'.
    You should end up with a file that resembles *My Movie.m2v*
    Then import that file into DVDSP into the assets pane and you're away.
    Good luck!
    -Chuck

  • What Compressor To Use In Export With FCE?

    My Final Cut Express has no MPEG2 export...what's a good, reasonably priced compressor to use, since apparently it's no longer an option with Quicktime Pro?

    This is not reasonably priced, but it is free for 30 days to use so thats not bad if you are in a pinch as I currently am because QT7 removed my MPEG2 encoder from my FCE 2.0 that I used to have when I was using QT 6.?. Bad Apple. I felt that I paid for the MPEG2 encoder the first time so why does Apple have the right to remove it? Good luck in the same problems I am having. I will probably choose to look for a non-Apple created program. I have heard that there are some free ones out there, you just have to look.

  • What to do with photos in organizer when I move pictures to another folder

    I have 2 hard disks in my computer. The c drive is getting crowded and I want to move my photo folder to the other disc (D:). How do I "tell" Organizer to point to the d drive instead of the C drive.

    I'll assume PSE12 or PSE11:
    First way : use the 'Folders' view. In the left panel, you are seeing the drives and folder trees. Click on the folder you want to move with its own subfolders, and drag and drop to the new drive. Be patient while all files are written to the new drive.
    Second way : to move selected items in the browsing space, use the menu file / move.

  • Audio export issue when using Multiband Compressor

    I'm having an audio issue when exporting from Premiere Pro 5.5. I have a number of clips that I've used the Multiband Compressor on. Some audio clips are straight cuts with no gaps, some have a 3-frame cross fade. When playing back in Premiere everything sounds fine. When I export the sequence the audio drops out for about a frame in between each audio clip which contains the Multiband Compressor effect. This occurs no matter what codec used during export, and when only audio is exported.

    I have the same problem. EXACTLY. I thought I became crazy, but not. What a pity, because Multiband Compressor is really impressive for a lot of situation, especially when there is voice.

  • Bridge CS5 Export Module only saves as 72 dpi file

    I frequently export my edited RAW files as high resolutioin JPG files.  I've been using the Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor for export.  Having just purchased CS5, I tried using the Export Module and discovered that it only exports files as 72 dpi JPGs (not the 300 dpi of my original files).  Anyone know how to keep my exported files as 300 dpi?

    No it's not a bug, the jpg is being created from the preview image (this can be a fullsize document) and there is no PPI information so the document defaults to 72 PPI in photoshop.
    I agree there is a problem with the quality setting! It does not seem as it will save at the best quality, the range should be 1 - 100 not 1 - 12.
    If you would like to try my interpretation of export you can try my Bridge Processor..
    I have added a field to set the PPI
