Apparent differences between Exported and Exported Catalog images

In trying to recover from a 'shot self in foot' error when managing some images, I have exported some selected images from Lightroom V3 and also performed an 'Export as Catalog' step. The hard disk destinations for the 2 exports are different. To my surprise the images also appear different and are of different size. The export of selected images appears to create the result I expect - that is when browsing the exported images (within PhotoMechanic for example) the images I see are what I expect. But the images that are exported as part of the export as catalog appear to have discarded all the 'retouching' I did to them in the Develop module ( when browsed in the same way).
Is this because the changes that I made as part of the retouching are kept within some sort of catalog files when I export as a catalog, but are written into the image file when I export a selection of individual images? I notice that there are no sidecar files in the folder where Lightroom is holding the images.
(By the way I am dealing with TIFFs produced by scanning 40+ year old slides in an Epson V700 scanner. The workflow I have been using is the cause of my original 'shot in foot' issue.)

Ah! Thanks for this.
In fact the original form is what I really need, as well as the edited form. (I was not aware that this is how I could get to that original form). Perhaps a litlte more background will help:
I started with a folder of master/original scanned images on 1 drive and then did a physical copy to a 2nd drive. I imported the images . in place - into Lightroom from this second drive, with the intention of leaving the master/original versions untouched. I have been using 2 diffeent scanning applications: Epson Scan and Silverfast Ai. At some stage I started to import directly into Lightroom from the master/original folder on the first drive instead of from the copies on the second drive. I also further fouled things up by scanning images directly into the Lightroom managed folder on the second drive, instead of into the master/originals folder. Having then done some editing I am in the confusing situation of having 'orginal' and edited' images on both drives.
Now what I want to is to put all unedited images only into the master/original folder on the first drive and be sure that the Lightroom library contains all the edited images as well as imported copies of images that I have not yet had a chance to edit.
It is clear now from your advice that I can recreate my 'master/original/images throuhg the 'export as catalog' process. But it is not clear that I can capture all of the edting that I have done already. I have stupidly stored some of those edits in the wrong folder.

Color differences between high and low res images in Illustrator pdfs

OK, I'm creating a tradeshow graphic for a client. I designed the whole thing in Illlustrator CS6. But for the proof, I used a low res image of the sky (before we purchased it). Everyone was happy. It was a low-res RGB image imported into Illustrator, then the whole thing was exported as a pdf.
Once they approved it, I purchased the high res image. RGB. Same image... just high res. I popped it into the Illustrator file and exported it in exactly the same way. But now, the image looks much more purple. The low res pdf showed it as much brighter, lighter blue.
My client prefers the lighter blue. When I look at the two images in Photoshop, they look the same (in terms of color).
So... should I be worred? Why is there such a color difference? Thanks!
I'm attaching jpgs of the pdfs just to show you the color differences.
Julie

Print Graphics: File >> Document Color Mode CMYK.
Digital Graphics: File >> Document Color Mode RGB.
The PDF presets in Illusttrator will generate CMYK PDFs or PDFs in the colorpsace Illustrator is set to, (except for smallest file size which makes RGB PDFs).
Firsst make sure you are in the correct colorspace in Illustrator before proceeding, adn make your imaeg CMYK if you are for example doing a banner for tradeshow. Backlit graphics are the only print graphics exception and should be RGB because Lambda printers actaully are native RGB.
Open your lo and hi res in Phoothsop and compare the color values by watching the info aplette in Photoshop.
When generating PDFs keep in minds that and RGB PDFs have different color than a CMYK PDF.

What situations are better to export to to .PNG or .JPG?
J

iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

Difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package

Hi experts!
Could you tell me what is the difference between "Export" and "Export form Fact Table" package?
Tkanks
Gabriel

Hi,
Basic difference between Export and Export from Fact Table is
In standard package "Export" : We can perform this function when we are online and we have adequate amount of data to be exported. We can run this package eg: weekly or monthly. Here we use u201CExport Packageu201D to pull the data
And in the administrative package "Export from Fact Table" Mostly it is used to do the backend data loading basically bulk data , also any formula logic has to be implemented on the data in that case we use the administrative package.
Hope this helps.

Difference between Export QT and Export Using QT Conversion?

I am exporting video from FCE4 into iDVD, and can't understand the difference between Export QuickTime Movie and Export Using QuickTime Conversion.
The first is much faster, but the video seems to suffer in quality. Am I missing something?
Thanks!

"Export Using QuickTime Conversion" gives you many more options
(and many more ways of making mistakes); and it always recompresses.
Using "Export QuickTime Movie" gives you the option to uncheck
the "Recompress" box, which should produce a better result,
if you're not changing codecs.

Difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images, percentage not kept

There is some kind of difference between CS3 and CS4 when placing images. The images I've dealt with right now were vector images but it might apply to all kinds of images.
When replacing an existing image, the CS4 behaviour is to let the image fill up the frame. In CS3 the percentage was set to 100% as default (the % you see when selecting the image, not the container).
Also when replacing an impage in CS4, the "inner" image frame is kept, while in C3, the percentage was kept.
Is there some kind of placement preferences / settings to let CS4 act the same wat as CS3 did, when placing an image?
-- Andreas

Yes, the behavior was changed in CS4 (and many users, like me, prefer the new system).
If you click and drag a loaded image place cursor the entire image will be be scaled to fit the proportionally drawn frame -- a huge timesaver if you mostly place uncropped art. If you want 100% of the image at 100% scale, just click and release -- same as before, or as before you can pre-draw a frame and place into it and your image will come in cropped at 100% (unless you've changed the fitting options for the frame before placing).

What is the difference between avi and mov

Hi FCP users,
I am actually an audio guy, but I would like an answer on something.
I work with Logic, and usually use quicktime movies when I am working to movies. But I am working with a client who is an Avid user and swears by avi files. Can someone explain to me the difference. My client explained to me that avi's are better than mov files. He claims their file sizes are bigger, so therefore there quality is better. He said there is some form of compression on quicktime movies which lessen the quality to avi, even if the mov is uncompressed apparently the quality is still less than an uncompressed avi. If this is not true, could someone give me the real big difference between the two.
I thought is was more of a preference, like windows users prefer wav, and apple users like quicktime movies. Like with audio, there isnt a huge difference between aif and wav. Windows users prefer wav and apple users aif.
Thanks in advance for any information.

The vid guy has sent me some files to work with. So I am working in Final Cut to edit some of the video, and then sending it back to him. He is working on PC with Avid. What is the best. Should I convert the avi files he has sent to me to mov files. Then pull these into FCP, and then export it out as avi for him. Or should I export out as mov, and then he converts them to avi when he pulls it into Avid on his PC? Very confusing which is the best procedure between Mac and PC.
Thanks in advance for any help.
This is a disaster in the making. You can avoid being part of the train wreck by either renting an Avid, going to live at his house, or telling him to get a Macintosh.
You must find the lowest common denominator video format that will work on both of your systems. That could be conventional DV, dunno, never used Avid and never tried to edit anything on a PC. But I can tell you this with absolute certainty, it will be easier and, in the end, much less expensive for one of you to adopt the other's platform for the duration of this project. The time you waste transcoding, arguing, formatting your drives, buying secondary products, fitting round pegs into square holes, and trying to find a workable solution (that will keep changing as the project gets more complicated) will cost you much more in terms of money out of pocket and creative frustration than simply buying/renting another station.

What is the difference between RFX and Reverse Auctions.

Hi friends
What is the difference between RFX and Reverse Auctions? Is Reverse Auction a tool.
Can we perform Reverse Auctions in Live Auction cockpit.
Regards
Surya

A commonly used term in bidding is RFx. This is a generic term
used to describe different types of requests. RFx includes, for example,
Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), Request for
Information (RFI), etc.
Reverse auctions include many of the same features as Bid Invitations, including (but not limited to) the following:
Copy with reference
Auction search
Open Catalog Interface
Internal / external attachments of any type
Customer fields
Error log
Change log
Template management
Business partners at line level
Workflow approval of bids

Difference between "Web" and "Streaming"

Can anyone tell me what the difference between Web and Streaming is when exporting a Movie from iMovie? I know they both go on a webpage but why are there two options?
Thanks

True streaming media is not cached on the viewing machine. No cache means nothing to save as a new file. You can only save a "reference" to the source file stream.
Media Links (very cool feature rarely used by most users) make a .qtl file. This is also just a reference movie (very tiny file size) but can include many features found (usually) in the Pro upgrade of QuickTIme and/or AppleScript and Automator Action features.
Using Media Link files will allow you to add "Presentation" playback features to your QuickTime file (Full Screen, close when done, etc). You can add a "link" inside your QuickTime file so when the image is clicked a Web page would open. One of mine as an example:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/GetA_MacText.qtl
You'll notice the file will download (0.3KB's) then launch QuickTime Player and play full screen. Click on the movie to learn more.

No difference between High and Normal output sharpening

I was going to post a topic about how small is difference between screen output sharpening settings, when some tests revealed that in fact the difference is nil.
b Can anyone see any difference between Normal and High screen sharpening in applied at export?
I even stacked the two versions in Photoshop with the Difference blending mode on and a Levels adjustment layer amplifying the difference, and even the histogram was showing that I'be got big plain black rectangle.
Sharpening for paper seems to work fine.
Lightroom 2.3 Windows.

Just took the time to test this on my 'calibration' image and there is indeed no difference in Standard and High sharpening for screen.
Same result with and without resizing image; with and without jpeg compression; with both tif and jpeg files.

Difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD

Hi,
Please make me clear about the difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD. In which cases we need to use these modules...??
Thanks,

I would suggest to always use the GUI_UPLOAD. I say this because this is the function module which is used in the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.   Really, you should probably use the class/method instead of the function module.

filename = p_file.

What is the difference between SWF and F4V in the context of Streaming or progressive Download?

Hello everybody,
I am absolutely a beginner in working with Captivate and furthermore my technological know how is not that good.
So, I have problems to understand if the export formats SWF and F4V are both capable to be published in the Internet as streaming video and as progressive Download? Well so, I do not really understand the difference between streaming and progessive download either?
Furthermore I was asking myself if this issue depends on how I imported flash videos (there are these two options) in my Captivate project during the production phase?
I would be very thankful for some helping information!
Greetings,
Mareike the beginner

Welcome to our community
I'm not certain I fully understand the differences myself, but will toss out what I believe to be true about the formats. Hopefully, if I'm incorrect in my bellief, someone with more definitive knowledge will chime in.
It was explained to me a couple of years back and is my understanding that "streaming" only applies to a video based format such as F4V, FLV and it doesn't apply to SWF. With SWF, you may specify a preload value. So when the SWF transmits from the web server to the PC, a certain percentage has to be received before play begins. But that's not streaming. It's preloading.
For streaming to occur, the web server establishes a communication channel between the server and the destination PC. This channel is monitored to see what speed is in use. Only enough information is then transmitted to be comfortable at that speed. If the speed improves during the connection, the server serves data at a faster rate. If the connection degrades, the information transmitted is also scaled back so as to accommodate the lower speed.
With SWF, after it has all been downloaded, a savvy user is able to poke around in their temporary internet files and save the SWF for play later. With streaming, this isn't possible because as the stream is viewed, it evaporates from memory.
Seriously hoping others will chime in here to confirm or deny this.
Cheers... Rick

Differences between standard and pro versions

I was reading the comparision of these two Acrobat versions and for Pro it says:
Edit and enhance photos to add to your PDF communications with Adobe Photoshop® CS5.
Quickly transform static PowerPoint slides into compelling, interactive PDF presentations with Adobe Presenter
Rapidly combine screen recordings, narration, video, slides, and more into a rich media experience with Adobe Captivate® 5
Does that mean that the Pro version includes Photoshop, Presenter and Captivate programs as well? Or, what are the differences? As an aside, the new look and feel of the Adobe website is confusing at best. Seems geared to being flashy, not useful.
Regards, David

Acrobat does not included those other packages. One of the pages that always struck me funny (maybe I have a twisted mind) but has this artistic background is the updates page. The background looks like a lacy bra to me. It is the first thing that comes to mind every time I see it. That is a problem with abstract images (that are typically unnecessary and waste bandwidth), that a lot is in the eye of the beholder. Actually, I have heard from many others that also see the bra.
OK, back to Acrobat. There are several aspects of Acrobat that allow you to have links to the other products built in, but they are not included. The page at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide.html?promoid=JIJYS provides some info, but a lot is missing. For instance there are differences with PDF Optimize and Reduce File Size I think (sorry, I do not have Std to check). One important one that is part of pro is the preflight option. Apparently Std does not include portfolios or allow PDF comparison according to the chart.
If you are into forms, then Std apparently will do them as AcroForms (my preference, partially because of familiarity), but does not include Designer if that was your preference. Some of the enabling for Reader is not available in Std. Also, Std does not allow embedding Flash. Std is limited for some of the products that include PDF Maker (not a big one for me, but might be important to you).
That is a quick summary based on the chart. However, be aware there are some other features that the chart does not seem to cover. For the difference between Std and Pro, I would suggest getting Pro. The big hit is the initial cost of the product, not the step up to Pro. In a business plan consider the time that might be wasted trying to do some of the things in Pro that are not in Std. Those are the types of issues to consider. Many folks consider the cost to be large, and for a small business it is. However, in the long term it may be worth the cost.
Keep in mind that many large CAD packages in engineering run about $30,000 for a single license, half the cost of the engineer that would use it. Some other tools are about $15,000. In that view, Acrobat is cheap (except for cheapskates like me).
