Bridge Binary - JPEG

Hi
I have tried BATCH RENAME thinking it would convert the pics name...but changed my photos from Jpeg/raw to BINARY DOCUMENT....how can I revert back to origional format ???? please help

The format does not change by renaming the file. More than likely your file viewer does not recognize the file extension and therefore is calling it a binary file, since all image binary anyway.
Rename the file and make sure .jpg is at the end of the name for the jpg image and the correct extension for the raw file depending on the camera that created it.

CS4 bridge displays jpegs thumbnails only

CS4 bridge displays jpegs thumbnails only
Can someone who may have seen this problem or experienced a silimilar issue explain what is happening to CS4 bridge. I just installed PC version of CS4 photophop. It appears that in bridge, only jpegs thumnails will display. Tiffs and PSD files only show up as icons. Also the file association menu seems to have disappeared. Now if I log in as administrator , everything works properly. All thumbnails display correctly, assoication menu appears and bridge will update fine. Does anyone have an idea of what is happening here??

Did this happen recently, or has it always worked this way? If this is a new occurance some file may be corrupted and your best bet would be to reset Bridge. You can do that by holding down Crtl and starting Bridge. A reset window will appear, choose all 3 options.
One other point. If you are using Vista and an external drive there can be persissoning problems, but this does not seem like it should be one.

Bridge opens JPEG files in Windows Photo Viewer not Photoshop

How do I tell Bridge to open my JPEG files in Photoshop and not Windows Photo Viewer? I see that Windows Photo Viewer is selected as the default in my preferences and I do not see Photoshop as an option. I do see COM Surrogate 6.1. I just upgraded from CS5 to CS6 yesterday and I am just noticing this issue. I never dealth with this problem with CS5. Any suggestions? Thank you all for the help.

If you deleted CS5 after installing CS6 you are one of the unfortunate that also fouled up the file associations.
The safest way to restore function is to uninstall CS6, run the Adobe script cleaner and reinstall.
There is a registry fix that I include as an option, but on vacation so can not find that references.
Some have had succes with running CCleaner, but registry cleaners can cause some problems of their own if the delete "good files".

CS4 Bridge hoses jpegs

I needed to use a Jpeg camera original image (created in May 2008) in CS4 and viewed it with Bridge then tried Crtl-R to open it in Camera Raw. The image opened, all the control were there, I brightebed it up a bit and hit OPEN and ... hey - presto the image was corruprted. Tried the same thing on the next image in the folder and got the same results.
We had backed up the folder on DVD so I've lost some time but not the two images.
What's going on?

Bridge defaults to opening jpegs into ACR. This is a question that's better for the Bridge forums.
Did you confirm the jpegs are corrupted via another image viewer/editor?

ExtendScript CS5 - Bridge - Exporting JPEGs as 300DPI from PSDs

I know that Bridge has an Export menu that can be used to convert PSDs to JPEG and then convert them, but I can't figure out how to get access to these functions through the ExtendScript API.
I basically have an array of Thumbnail objects that I need to iterate through and export out 300 DPI JPEGs as I go.
Any ideas? I've already read through the manuals and didn't find anything of use.
My current relevant line looks like:
bm.exportTo(new File(exportFilePath),100);

You best drop this question in the dedicated Bridge scripting forum:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/bridge/bridge_scripting
Personally I would PS itself for this and create an action for this and the 300 ppi miracle figure is just what is, a figure, no more no less.
Many confuse it with dpi (dots per inch) but this is about the density of the ink dots used for printing. Ppi (pixels per inch) is the common term for digital images (that are made out of pixels, not ink dots… )
As long as you don't alter the amount of pixels you can use whatever figure you want without changing the total amount of the pixels, it just means the width and height are extended or increased because of the total amount of pixels used per inch. Anyone can alter this again without consequence for the image quality of the original file, as long as you don't start recalculating pixels to enlarge the or decrease the file size.
That said, In CS6 you have the option to create an action for both landscape and portrait using image / image size and fill in 300 pixels per inch and be sure to have the resample option unchecked. Also record a save action and without touching the original filename (if you do it records this also and overwrite each file with the new one) and choose a folder.
Create a new action and use 'insert conditional' (fly out menu top right of action panel) and choose the landscape action to play for landscape file, else: portrait.
Select the files in Bridge, use menu tools / PS / batch and select your action, hit OK and you are done.
You can also create a droplet but sadly enough you can't see them in Bridge and drop files on, but you can drag them to the desktop to let the action play.
Plenty of options I would think

Scaling Binary JPEG images

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.
I am extracting JPEG images stored in a blob field in a DB. I can obtain the bytes of the JPEG in a couple different ways but I have had no luck in scaling the images.
I need to simple scale the image, and then return the new image preferably in a byte[] or something that I can convert to a byte[].
I have come accross several past post, and at times seems to work. None of them actually return an image or errors so I am not sure where it fails.
I tried a modified version of the following which was an example on making thumbnails out of a larger image.
Here's the url to that example
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/TechTips/1999/tt1021.html
After modifying the code, when I went to test I recieved a weird error in a log file that basically said something could not use :0 which is refering to my monitor.
This is and will be used in a Linux env, but does not or should not invlove X in anyway. I have come accross other example that talk about a frame.addnotify() method that is supposed to resolve this issue when not outputing to a monitor.
After adding that, the error is not there, but neither is my scaled image.(which wasn't there before either)
If this sound strange, that's beacuse I am creating a custom Generator object. Generator being a Servlet created by Macromedia to generate Flash movies and etc. on the fly.
For some reason in the API it lacks the ability to scale a JPEG image. Yet to be able to put the image into Flash, I must get the image's byte[].
Please help, I have played around with this one for some time now, and have tried more things than I could document here.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Bridge cs4 jpeg preview using spacebar - possible answer

The EIZo S2111W is my work screen and the Dell is just for pallets etc.
The Eizo connects direct by DVI cable, the Eizo uses a DVI/VGA adaptor from Apple.
So the other day I grab the VGA cable to help a friend and let the DELL chill out for a while. I noticed later that Bridge didn't show previews, kinda crashed, loosing menu bars etc, like perhaps it was trying to display on the Dell. But I didn't realise that, or the cable connection with the Bridge problem until I plugged the cable back in later and noticed Bridge previews working again. Tonight I did the same and noticed same problem, and fix again. I have been thinking about moving from the 20inch Eizo & Dell combo to a nice 30" NEC. Alas, with this problem I may always be forced to have a dual setup... Long live the Dell?
Just wanted to share this strange but at least somewhat solved mystery.
PS the video card in the Mac pro ATO Radeon HD2600 has always been weird. Used to get some wild displays going when i was batching big PS jobs. Gone now.
Cheerios,
Cam.

I just had the idea of switching the gpu (System Prefs - Energy Saver - Better Battery life or Better Performance). Changing from one to the other will force you to log out and back in. Now Bridge is working. I switched back and it's still working so maybe you just need to log out or restart.
No solution, but I'm having the same problem. Just updated to 4.0.4.1. I'm guessing there because I didn't check the number, but I ran the update a couple days ago and went to use Bridge today... I repaired permissions, installed another update today (4.0.4.2) and tried resetting Bridge (option key at start) and nothing has fixed it.

Opening jpegs in Camera Raw from Bridge

While browsing in Bridge CS3, jpegs can magically be opened with a right click. Then, mysteriously some cannot. Why is that?

i have the same problem :S whats happen with this? T.T I deleted the photoshop and i installed again and it doesnt work.
(Sorry for my english, i dont speak very well >.<)

Using RAW+JPEG stacking script, but can't get JPEG as default thumbnail for stack. Help!

I am currently using this script I found elsewhere on Adobe forums. However, doing this function only will stack everything with the raw files on top. I am using a 5D MKIII now and Bridge CS4 can't generate the CR2 previews, so I need JPEGs to see what a file is for general editing. How do I get this stack script to put the JPEGS on top instead of the raw files?
(script originally posted by Paul Riggot in another forum)
#target bridge
   if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
AutoStack = MenuElement.create("command", "Auto Stack", "at the beginning of submenu/Stack", "zx1");
AutoStack.onSelect = function () {
   stackEm();
function stackEm(){
app.document.sorts = [{ name:"name",type:"string", reverse:false}];
var jpgs = Folder(app.document.presentationPath).getFiles ("*.jpg");
app.document.deselectAll();
for(var a in jpgs){
var Name = decodeURI(jpgs[a].name).replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, '');
var stacks = Folder(app.document.presentationPath).getFiles(Name+".*");
if(stacks.length < 2) continue;
for(var z in stacks){ app.document.select(new Thumbnail(stacks[z]));}
StackFiles();
app.document.deselectAll();
function StackFiles(){
app.document.chooseMenuItem('submenu/Stack');
app.document.chooseMenuItem('StackGroup');

I wonder if you have time if you could test this script for me please?
What it does (tries to do) is to create JPGs from the raw files in the same folder as the CR2 (raw) files.
N.B. IT WILL OVERWRITE ANY JPGS IN THE SAME FOLDER IF THE NAMES MATCH!
So please try it on a folder with raw files only.
The idea being it might be quicker to generate jpegs from the embedded thumbnail rather than shoot both raw/jpg?
T.I.A.
#target bridge
if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
AutoStackJpgs = MenuElement.create("command", "Create Stack JPGs", "at the beginning of submenu/Stack", "sj1");

I am unable to get same preview image colors in Bridge and Lightroom

I am unable to get same file preview in Bridge and Lightroom. The Lightroom preview image (in both the Library and Develop) is more de-saturated. But the exported/saved jpegs match. If I try to match the Lightroom preview image to the Bridge preview image, the resulting Lightroom export colors are off. I have tried this with images with no changes and with changes and the result is the same. I have Lightroom 5.6 and CR 8.6. I am using the latest version of Bridge.
I contacted Adobe support and followed all instructions to try to fix but the problem remains. This comment was made after several solutions were tried, including updating Lightroom. :
Adobe: there would be little difference in case of preview of Bridge CC and Lightroom 5. However, after exporting it would be same. Both use different technology at the background and work in a different way. The preview which you see in lightroom is not the actual image but incase of Bridge you see the actual image ( original ). That's the reason there is a color variation between previews.
Me: But how can I then use the Lightroom preview to get accurate colors when processing a RAW file? If I do adjustments to the RAW file in Lightroom it looks different when exported. That doesn't seem to make sense when Lightroom is designed for photograhy
Adobe: Please check in develop module of lightroom.
Me: Nothing changes in the develop mode. The image looks the same as in the preview/Library mode.
This screenshot shows the unmodified images in Develop (Lightroom) and ACR (Bridge). The color differences are significant.
Lightroom exported jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in Develop (which looks like Bridge preview image not the Lightroom preview)
Bridge saved jpeg file, unmodified from preview image in ACR
Any suggestions on what I need to do to Lightroom to make it show accurate colors. If not, I don't see any point in using it to process files.
Thanks, Marie

Bridge is just a browser. It displays according to the embedded color profile but assumes sRGB for all untagged images.
In Lightroom library previews use Adobe RGB and in Develop the working space is Pro Photo RGB.
The real question is why use both Bridge and Lightroom. Stick to one, not both.

How to load and display a byte array (jpeg) image file dynamically in Flex?

My web service client (servlet) received a binary jpeg data from an Image Server. The Flex application invokes the
servlet via HttpService and receives the binary jpeg data as byte array. How could it be displayed dynamically
without writing the byte array to a jpeg file? Please help (some sample code is very much appreciated).

JPEGEncoder is only useful for converting BitmapData to ByteArray, not the other way around.
By the way JPEGEncoder and PNGEncoder are part of the Flex SDK now, so no need to use AS3Lib (alltough it's a good library to have around).
To display/use a ByteArray as image, use a Loader instance with the loadBytes method.
    Loader.loadBytes(bytes:ByteArray, context:LoaderContext = null);
Listen for the complete event on the Loader.contentLoaderInfo and get the BitmapData in the event handler.
private function loadJpeg():void {
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderCompleteHandler);
    //jpgBA is the ByteArray loaded from webservice
    loader.loadBytes(jpgBA);
private function loaderCompleteHandler(evt:Event):void {
    var t:LoaderInfo = evt.currentTarget as LoaderInfo;
    // display the jpeg in an Image component
    img.source = t.content;
<mx:Image id="img" scaleContent="false" />

How do I get jpegs to associate with Photoshop CC 2014?

I uninstalled PS CC before installing PS 2014. I have now uninstalled PS 2014 and Bridge and reinstalled. Bridge associates jpegs with PS 2014 as the default program but anywhere else I can't get them to associate. I've tried "Open With" and it doesn't give me photoshop as a choice. I choose browse and go to the executable but it still won't work. How can I fix this?

what operating system are you on?

Bridge won't open JPG files in Photoshop CS3

I changed my preferences to remove the check-box "prefer Adobe camera RAW for Jpeg and TIFF files" , restarted Bridge and tried to open a JPEG from bridge directly into photoshop. But double clicking on the image in bridge opened "paint".
So I change the Bridge preferences back to Prefer ACR for JPEG again, restart Bridge, and then bridge tells me that it cannot find Photoshop CS2. CS2 is not even loaded on this machine anymore.
So then I go to the file type associations preferences and "browse" to the CS3 version of photoshop, restart bridge, and double click on a JPEG and it again says that CS2 cannot be found. I change the association again using the "browse" to CS3 and then it opens the image up in "Paint" again.
Why won't Bridge open JPEG's in ACR anymore?
Why won't bridge open JPEG's in Photoshop CS3 anymore?

Bill, thanks for the reply. But I do not think that the file associations is the answer here. If I am using bridge to open files in ACR or Photoshop, I do not believe that I need to change the windows file type association. I have other PC's where the file association is not photoshop and bridge works fine opening these files. In fact, when using windows explorer to navigate JPG files, I do NOT want photoshop being opened to preview these images. On my other PC's, I can both preview JPG's using windows picture viewer, and open the JPG's via bridge in ACR. Furthermore, Photoshop CS2 is NOT the application listed for JPG's in the folder options in the control panel. So the problem that I have here has something to do with Bridge or perhaps something is corrupted int he files.
The reason why I suspect a corruption, is that not all files behave in the same manner in bridge. Some files with the same extension open as I would expect, while others do not. I did not realize this fact when I made my original post.

Opening files in BRIDGE

We have several options in Bridge for opening files ... we can always open in the RAW editor ...BUT if we simply want to OPEN directly to CS4 > when we right click to OPEN the image >it goes directly to our EMAIL ?? Can not find a spot in PREFERENCES to change this funciton ??

Then in Bridge go to Edit > Preferences > File Type Associations. Go to the file type and click on the drop-down menu. If Photoshop" is not listed, choose "Browse" and go to the location C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe and click Open. Your file should then open in Photoshop.
You will have to set this for every file type you want to open in Photoshop from Bridge. Jpeg, png, raw, psd, tiff, and so on.

Xap rating metadata lightroom bridge cs2

Is there anyone out there who can tell me why the xap metadata is written so differently in lightroom jpegs as compared to bridge CS2?
I've had writtena feature on my dynamic gallery on my website that reads the xap rating in bridge-produced jpegs, but doesn't work with lightroom produced ones. When I read the metadata from the 2, the structure was totally different. I dont suppose anyone from the development team would care to tell us how lightroom and bridge CS2 read the different xap structures - it would give me a clue how to re-write the function on my website.
Also are there plans to make the current structure standard? Does bridge CS3 for instance produce jpegs with the same structure in the metadata?
Thanks!

Yup, Bridge is just a Browser. ACR and Photoshop do the work.
AFFAIK.
