Best way to Export and Run a CS2 action/plug-in and save to a JPG?

Can someone help me with this? I am new to actions and droplets and LR/CS2 for that matter. :) sorry if this is basic beginner questions.
Please let me know if this is not correct?
* My assumption is I will get the best quality if I Export as a PSD,16-bit,300ppi file and then run my CS2 Plug-in and action ... then save to a JPG?
If this is true ... this is my question.
1) In LRv1 ... how do I Export the file as a PSD 16-bit ... and have a Action/droplet that will ultimatly save a JPG for me ... in another folder labled JPG?
(prefer not to have a bunch of psd files that I have to go back and delete.
2) p.s. I also would like to know I can do the same thing ... but this time configur my Action/droplet to save a "minimize embedded metadata' sRGB, constrained to 800px ... "save for WEB" JPG ... in a folder named WEB.
3) The key question here "I guess" is when Exporting from LRv1 .. and running a action on LR Export ... Do I have to Export the "Same" type/size of file I plan to End up with???
* So, If I want to end (after the action/droplet) with a 800x600 sRGB I need to Export it that way ...then LR will Run my Plug-in,& Sharpening Action on a smaller , lower bit file?
Thank you all, who have helped me on LR
* I am "trying" to automate LR ... my hope is true time savings :)

I've used JSmooth to make exe file from jar file, and it worked good. It was so along ago though I can't recall how to use it anymore.
Here's an example how to make a jar file from command line

  • Best way to export and import data from an iPhone app?

    How do people here prefer to export and import data from an iPhone app?
    For example, suppose your app creates or modifies a plist. It might be nice to provide that plist to the user for separate backup and later allow them to re-import it.
    How do people do that? Email the plist to an address? If so, how would one later get it back in?
    Is there a common way people do this kind of thing?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Or maybe the best approach for this is some sort of file synchronization feature? Is there a way of having files from the app's filesystem automatically get stored on the computer's filesystem when synchronizing and vice-versa?

  • What is the best way to export and import updates between WSUS servers for specific KB's with environments that have different data sets?

    We are under strict regulations and monitoring at my company. Because of this, we have to define what updates are being installed during a patch cycle by KB Article. Two production networks and one test network. The installed updates have to be the exact
    same in the test environment, run for a few days with no problems, and then we install them in our production networks. The issue is, not all of the software in the environments is identical.
    I need to figure out a way to take failed/needed updates from production that are unapproved, export that list so I can approve all of those updates in the test env.. Then once I approve those and any other needed updates in test, I need to be able to export
    all approved updates from the test env (which includes the needed ones from production) and import those approvals in production.
    How can this be done?
    Thanks!

    the easiest way will be to use a single wsus infrastructre for all your environments.
    Tis blog article explains how to duplicate the approvals over groups:

  • Best way to export data with r.t. prompts and have dense dim mbrs on rows?

    Hi All-
    What is the best way to export data with Run time prompts out of Essbase?
    One thought was to use Business Rules with run time variables and DATAEXPORT command, but I came across at least one limitation where I cannot have months (part of dense Time Periods dimension) on rows.
    I have only two dense dimensions: Accounts and Time Periods and I need both of these on rows. This would come handy when user enter Start and End month and year for data to be exported e.g. If start period is Feb 2010 and end is Jan 2011, I get data for all months in 2010 and 2011.

  • Best Way to Export After Effects File and Save Transparency

    Hi all-
    A pretty simple question. I need to export a file from After Effects and keep the alpha channel so I can superimpose it on some video in FCE. What is the best way to export it?
    I recall hearing people mention that the Animation Codec with "Millions of Colors+" is the best way to go about doing it, in which case I'd just have to render it within FCE. Is that correct? If so, are there any other settings I should tweak to get a high quality file that will work with FCE?
    Thanks.

    Hi -
    Animation Millions+ will deliver an extremely high quality file with the alpha channel. You will need to render once in FC.
    Hope this helps.

  • Best way to export iPhoto library?

    Hey folks,
    I was wondering what is the best way to export all the master/unedited images I have in my iPhoto 11' collection just to have it all in the Photos folder. I would like to start making the move to Lightroom 4 and give it a test drive. It would be nice to keep the organizational structure that I have going on now in iPhoto with my events. Can any one help? If Lightroom doesnt work out for me, I would want to make a referenced iPhoto Library and keep the images in the photos folder. Thanks for the help.

    Have a look at my first post on this thread, which predates that export option in iPhoto, that pretty much deals with the issue with older versions. One of those options is free.
    I'm just kind of irked by the idea that you should treat folders and files on your own computer as untouchable.
    There are a couple of ways to look at this.
    One: they're not at all untouchable. You have described perfectly how you might touch them. What we're saying is that touching them in that way may cause you dataloss, but if you want to do that, knock yourself out . But know the risks you're running. Look at it this way: there's no reason you have to use the doors on your car. You can jump through the sunroof, but don't be surprised if you hurt yourself on the gearstick.
    Two: If you're the kind of person who really needs to visit with your files and folders for some reason, then run a referenced library. It makes for more work, adds zero extra capability and is likely to store up issues for the inexperienced user, but it's quite possible. For more about how, and the pitfalls:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
    Three: The bigger issue here is that you're going to have problems in the future. The files/folders metaphor is going away in computing now. Everything - even text editors - are becoming databases. The files are just dumb storage, the important part is the data - the actual photos. iPhoto is about the data, not the files. The Finder is about files.
    These two user tips explain this is more detail:

  • Best way to export data for a migration

    Hi Oracle Community,
    What's the best way to export data from an Oracle 8i database for it to be suitable for import into an Oracle 10g database?
    What's the best way to export data if it is to go into different rdbms database?
    Thanks, David

    Thanks everyone for all your help. You guys are great.
    There seems to be many good ways to export your data from Oracle into a flat file format, suitable for import into other RDBS': Oracle, mysql, postgresql, etc.
    A few tools where mentioned but using SQL*Plus, which comes with Oracle (And SQL*LDR on the backend, which also comes with Oracle) seem the most straight forward.
    I found this script on asktom.oracle.com to work great, slightly modified here,
    (to Include linesize max, and pipes rather than commas):
    set echo off newpage 0 space 0 pagesize 0 feed off head off trimspool on
    set linesize 32767
    spool payment.txt
    select
    PAYMENT_ID||'|'||
    USER_ID||'|'||
    <more fields her>
    from
    payment
    spool off
    exit ;
    It works great. Rather than making one of these for each table I wrote an perl script called ora_export. http://crowfly.net/oracle/ora_export. It runs in Unix and only requires SQL*PLUS. It creates these four files:
    <tablename>.def # list of table columns and types (SQL*Plus DESC)
    <tablename>_dump.sql  # a script to export the data
    <tablename>.psv # THE DATA (eq. - name|address|etc)
    <tablename>_load.ctl  # SQL*LDR control for ORCL if you need it.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • Best Way to Export Single Tracks in Audition

    Hello,
    What is the best way to export one single track (stereo or 5.1) from a multiple track mix in the Multitrack Editor if I want to make it mono? Is it by just muting the tracks I don´t want in the final mixdown and then selecting a mono Master in the Mixdown Options box?
    What about exporting only a few of the tracks from a multiple track mix to one mono file? Same process?
    Thanks!

    "Export all Tracks as Audio Files" found under File>Export.
    This will render audio files of your software instruments that start at bar 1, beat 1, and can be dragged right into Pro Tools. The export happens "pre-fader", so it is bounced at unity gain, and excludes any automation.
    If there is automation that needs to be included (like a filter sweep or something like that), you'll need to solo the track, and bounce it, because a bounced file does include automation.
    Also, if you're using a multi-channel instrument, you'll need to bounce those tracks separately as well.

    Release: 11.5.8
    OS: Oracle Solaris on SPARC (32-bit) verison 9
    DB: 9.2.0.1
    Thanks in advance

    What kind of data you are looking to move?
    Database export/import is only supported for full database export/import and the application release should be the same on the source/target nodes.
    You can move the setup using iSetup or FNDLOAD.

  • What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

    Hi All,
    We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
    As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
    What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
    Thanks in advance,
    - Shashi

    Hello Shashi,
    some comments:
    1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
    2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
    3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
    For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

  • Best way to export from AVCHD to highest quality possible

    Hello,
    I just got the Canon HF200, a AVCHD Camcorder and new to Premiere Pro CS4.
    Does anyone have the time and is willing to explain what would be the best way to export AVCHD source material after editing ?
    I'm interested in the best quality you can get out of AVCHD.
    It would be nice to have a list of the settings in Premiere to be customized (i.e. setting up new project, exporting format settings and so on) to have the best quality of the footage exported.
    Thanks in advance
    best regards
    checop

    Geezus the guy just wants a simple answer.
    MASTER FILE / FOR YOUR BLU RAY PLAYER / ARCHIVAL
    1) use the Bluray H.264 preset to get a Bluray master. Best quality, takes a while to encode though.
    Unless it's a five hour movie I'm pretty sure it'll fit on a BD disc.
    GENERAL RULE OF THUMB FOR ARCHIVAL AND MASTER FILES: try to match the final product with your source file.
    If your source is H.264/AVCHD export in that format too (In this case, Bluray H264 preset)
    If it's 1080i then export as such
    If it's 24Mbps then use that bitrate to export as too. Etc. etc. etc.
    Now that's for archiving - getting the best looking Master file. Uploading  your movie to the web is different...
    IF YOU'RE GOING TO SHOW YOUR MOVIE ON THE WEB
    1) use that Bluray master (or encode directly from your CS 4 timeline if you have the time) to WMV.
    Choose the NTSC setting and then customize it.
    640 x 360 or 575 x 324 sizes are good; Make sure to use the SQUARE pixels option since the sizes here are figured for that. Keyframes every 2 seconds, or every 5 seconds if there's not a lot of movement and background business going on. In the 1000 - 1600 kbps range is good (larger dimensions = higher bitrate).
    Audio 96/44 is fine.
    Choose 2 Pass Variable Bitrate for best quality/size ratio.
    If you're using CS4 it'll automatically deinterlace when you encode to WMV. In other programs you need to check "Deinterlace".
    2) Flash (FLV) is popular too. Same sizes, you can get away with lower bitrates than WMV. Requires special players either on the web or on the users' desktop so only do this if you feature the movie on your site and you know how to make a SWF file with your FLV embedded.
    Lost me here? Then just forget Flash for now.
    Other Primer Notes (VERY GENERALIZED SPEAKING):
    Forget MPEG 1. Bad quality/size ratio compared to WMV.
    Use MPEG 2 for archival purposes, but use high bitrates (like 1920 x 1080 @ 24 Mbps or similar. )
    Quicktime is good for archiving too but takes a long time to encode on PCs. Not worth it for web delivery anymore... although there will be Mac fanatics disagreeing with me right now.
    Hope this helps

    What is the best way to export a slideshow.I like to view  the show trough AppleTV on my television.

    You don't really give us a lot of information to work with, and assume we know something about this mdeia player. The only way to get the slideshow to a media player is to export it from iPhoto. To where? Depends on the media player. Will iTunes work? Depends on the media player. Does the media player have a DVD drive? If so, then burning it to DVD with iDVD will work, but it will be standard def not HD.

  • InDesign / Best way to export for Web?

    Hi guys,
    I did an A2 (large size) poster and now i need to have the very same image for Web Mailing on Internet. I guess it will be a 650 pixeles by 800 px.
    Which is the best way to export this content for Internet? 
    1) I notice that if i save the InDesign file to PDF even in the lowest quality the small text keeps crisp and clear while the file is very small size. Unfortunately PDF cannot be used -i think- as embedded images into a mailing list.
    2) If i export the very same InDesign file at the highest posible resolution as JPG -a traditional Internet image standard- the text is blurred and not well defined, besides the file is quite large.
    3) Should i exported to PDF and then open in Photoshop and "Save for the Web" as JPG? Maybe Photoshop has a better exporting engine when regarding to images than InDesign...i don't know.
    How can i find a way to have well defined crisp and clear text, small size and image? I am not sure i could use PDF format here.
    Any help or ideas? that would be great
    Thanks,
    S

    Thanks for the tip!
    I am sorry i forgot to say i have an A2 and an A3 size poster version. I used the A3 poster and the 650 pixeles poster for Internet actually turn out to be quite readable. I used quite large fonts size in the original design, a bit of a Swiss or Constructivism style poster.

  • Best way to export custom postcard as .jpeg

    Hi! I am very new to photoshop, and, I am sure these are very elementary questions... please bear with me. I really appreciate your help.

After reading advice online, I sized it at 72 resolution, color RGB Color, and tried to export it as .JPEG using Save for web... But, the preview looks like some of the faces on my postcard are blurry... Could you please tell me the best way to format and export such a file? Also, if it needs to be at a higher resolution, do I need to start the whole process over again?
    Thanks so much for your patience with my ignorance. I am trying to do this before Christmas, and trying to keep my spirits in a Christmas mood in the process, without beating my computer. =-0
