Can I include the FILE NAME when printing from Bridge?

I'm a commercial photographer. I shoot with my camera tethered to a Mac laptop to view images immediately as I shoot. I use Bridge to view these images.
As I shoot, we save the file by product name, and then print proofs immediately. I need to include the File Name on these prints. Is
there a way for me to do this directly from Bridge? If not, can you think of a way using Photoshop? Or anything else? Lightroom?

Guessing you are using Bridge CS4 you could use the Adobe Output module for
this. It is reachable through a seperate workspace in the top menu right
side or the left side top menu the icon most right.
You can create different lay outs as a PDF with this but for you it should
be one per page and select the filename (with or without extension). Just
explore the posibilities. For CS4 you could use the updated Output Module.
If on CS3 you could use the contact sheet script for Photoshop that in
Bridge can be reached by the menu Tools / Photoshop / contactsheet. This
contactsheet script is also usable for CS4, it is on the Goodies install
disk for PSCS4
As I shoot, we save the file by product name, and then print proofs
immediately. I need to include the File Name on these prints. Is
there a way for me to do this directly from Bridge? If not, can you think of a
way using Photoshop? Or anything else? Lightroom?

Can I include the file names of images in the image itself?

*How can I get the file names of images on each image (without entering them by hand)?*
(I am bring 250 images into a Keynote document, with each image on its own slide. I want to have the file names of the images shown on each slide or image. This doesn't need to look nice.)
(If I can't do this in Aperture, I also have Photoshop Elements. Is there a way to do that in Elements?)

You can't do this directly via Ap3. There are plug in's i believe that make it possible. Maybe someone knows more? Allan

Ask for the file name when printing on XP x64

I have just installed my CS3 on Windows XP x64. Installation was successful and all is working fine. But there are few things which are working differently and I can not find any way to fix it.
One of the problems I have is that I can not have it so that I will be asked for the name of the PDF file created. It simply goes through and allocates name of the file used for printing. It happens for all applications i.e. Word, Excel, InDesign, Corel. In my automatic processes I realy need to be prompted for the file name / location. Is it possible to modify some settings to have it under XP x64 ??? I hope it is.
Thanks for advise.
Tony

I would like to add few details which may help to find the source of the problem.
When I will select Adobe PDF as a printer, then click on Properties and select
Prompt for Adobe PDF filename
in Adobe PDF Output Folder then printing starts and will not progress at all. If I will change the Adobe PDF Output Folder to local it prints OK but is not asking for the file name / destination.
How I can have it printing and asking for the file name / destination ? Or maybe on XP x64 it is not possible at all ?

Tony

How can you keep the file name when using "Download Linked File As..."?

I'm a longtime PC user finally making the transition to Mac. Some of the tasks that seemed so simple in Windows have really stumped me! One of the tasks I do frequently is download files into specific folders. After much looking, I finally found the "Download Linked File As..." option if I right-click on the download link. The problem is, when I choose this option, I lose the file name. I get a window in which I can choose the desired folder, but the filename is always "0". If I want to keep the filename (and I usually do), I have to type it in manually. Is there anyway around this?

You can post a screen shot by clicking on the liitle Camera icon above your reply. :)
Just checked on 10.7.4+, still the same, something is borked about your install, to see if we need to re-install...
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?

How can I adjust the file names when using the "export layers to files" Script in photoshop?

Currently the standard set up adds "_0000s_0001_" in front of the layer names that I need the new files to use. I'm processing hundreds of images so I'd like to avoid selecting and deleting the extra characters one by one. Any way to automate this or set it correctly before exporting?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

How do I get the file name to print up closer to a horizontal photo?

Kind of a nit-picking question, but here goes anyway:
I use Lightroom's Print module to create contact sheets (three rows by three columns). I check the "Photo Info" check box and select "Filename" to have the file names printed with each photo. When the photo is shot vertically, the file name prints at the lower edge of the photo, as you would expect. However, when the photo is shot horizontally, the file name still prints down in the same place where it would print if the photo were vertical. That can be confusing because if the next photo down on the sheet is vertical, a file name can end up being much closer to the vertical photo below it--to which it is completely unrelated--than to the horizontal photo above it, to which it actually refers.
Is there any way to get Lightroom to print file names closer to horizontal photos?

Thanks to both of you for your speedy responses. Making all the shots horizontal or vertical (i. e., unchecking the "Rotate to Fit" box on the right) is not what I want. Increasing the vertical spacing is a possibility, but that'll make the vertical shots smaller. There's a program called "ImageBuddy" which does exactly what I want LIghtroom to do in this instance: print the filenames of only the horizontal shots higher and therefore closer to the photos to which they refer. It's quite cheap, but I'd rather not use Lightroom for everything else and ImageBuddy just for contact sheets, so if anybody knows of a way to do what I want to do within Lightroom, please do clue me in.

Can I display the File name at the bottom of the Grid view window?

Dang. I'm probably going to catch some flak for this... but I can't find where this bone is buried. When the main viewer is in grid mode, the bottom of the window says "1 selected - 9 items displayed" or something to that effect. Is there a way to replace that with the name of the file(s) that is currently selected?
I have searched the manual and tried many of the Metadata display options and can get all kinds of info to show up when double clicking to bring that image full screen. But I'd like to see its name when simply selected in the grid view.
Obviously that info is available in the Info pane to the left. But when doing basic organizing, I like to leave that side on the Library pane.
Screen grab for the situation I am talking about:
Thank you!
Bo

Bo,
I have no idea, if it would be possible to change the caption in the line below the grid.
But why not add the filename of each image to the grid view like this?
Edit the metadata for the Gridview (expanded or basic) to include the "File name" and arrange the display order to show the Filename first. This way you will see it bleow each image.
Another way to alway see the filename would be to set the Metadata Tooltip to include the filename, and to enable the tooltip, when you are using grid view.

How can I include the Frame Number when using "Export Frame"?

Im using the button at the bottom right of the Playback Control Panel called "Export Frame". This does exactly what I need but I have a lot of frames that need single frame exporting. How can I get the file name to automaticly include the frame number at the end of the file name?
For example, instead of it displaying "Sequence 01.Still001" by default. I would like for it to display "Sequence 01_0001" Letting me know that is frame 0001.
This is possible, correct?

Well what about in the export option using CTRL + M? I saw a coworker using this method in an older version of Premiere, but we can't enable it on CS5.5. Being able to export a single frame as a bmp that has the frame number at the end of the file name.
Example:
Output Name: Sequence 01_0001.bmp
Under Video Basic Setting is:
Export As Sequence UNCHECKED
Field Type: Progressive
Frame number still doesn't show at end of file name. What are we missing?

I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
Thanks,

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script?

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script? I wrote entries to a generic log file and would like to include the script name.

Okay, So What you can do is
1. Read get the version from your database and redirect it to a text file(SQLCMD outout can be directed to text file using -o option or windows redirection operator >)
2. Now you can read this value from the text file either inside a batch file or a powershell script and decide what operations you can do.

How to include the file name as an XML field

Hi,
I'm using a file adapter for process a flat file and convert it into an XML. Does anybody knows how to include the file name into an XML field.
Ex.
I process the file named XXIMN21022007.txt and I need an XML like:
<MT_FILE>
<field1></field1>
<field2></field2>
<field3></field3>
<filename>XXIMN21022007.txt</filename>
</MT_FILE>
Regards
Gonzalo

Just go for dynamic configuration.
Check the sender file adapter to write the filename in the header (as explained in Michal's blog) and then read that header in some mapping.
U can use that even in simple message mappings.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/03612cdecc6e76e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
Your code for the filename tag would be something like:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
 .getTransformationParameters()
 .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
 http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File,
 FileName);
return conf.get(key);

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?
