Can Photoshop File Format Plug-ins be used by InDesign?

If not, is there another way to get new image file support for importing images into InDesign? Thanks,
Rob

I'm trying to import NITF image files. I already have a photoshop file format plugin that can read these images and was hoping that it could (somehow) be used to import images into InDesign as well. It appears as if this is definitely NOT possible.
My use case is that I'd like to read a NITF image into Photoshop. The images I deal with are typically single channel 16 bit images. I'd like to then use Photoshop to process the image (e.g., brighten certain parts of the histogram and/or crop the image). I'd then like an easy way to get the image into InDesign. My initial thought was to use a function that could just pass it over, but it appears as if that is not possible.
It looks like I'll either have to figure out if cutting/pasting is acceptable and, if not, save the image to disk and re-read it. Next I must find answers to these questions:
a) Does the InDesign's SDK API provide the ability add to the list of supported image types that can be imported?
b) Does InDesign's SDK API provide the ability to create new document save types?
c) Does it make any sense to use a 16 bit/channel image in InDesign? I notice that it can read a 16 bit tiff file, but there doesn't appear to be any photoshop like controls to adjust the visible dynamic range.
Thank you all for your help!

File format plug-ins not working

I cannot get any of my file format plug-ins working with 5.1. They were working fine with 5.0. I am using some of the plug-ins here but none are working since I upgraded.
http://www.telegraphics.com.au/sw/
Is there anyway to check whether Photoshop has even recgonized these plug-ins? There doesn't seem to be anyway to scroll in the about screen in photoshop to check there.

Thanks! Ok, I'm getting "NO VERSION - 32-bit plug-in not supported in 64-bit" for those plug-ins.
Is there any workaround?

Writing Import and FIle Format Plug-Ins for Photoshop CS1

Hi All,
I have written two plug-ins (Import and File Format) which work fine using CS2. Unfortunately we need to be able to have them work in CS1 too. I downed the "Adobe Photoshop CS SDK" but when when I looked at the API document ("Photoshop API Guide.pdf"), chapters 6 and 9 are missing and there is no sample code for these plug-in types.
Could anyone explain why this is?
How do I write these types of plug-in's for CS1?
Thanks for your Help
All the Best
Dave

I have published
GPL source code to many plugins all of which are compatible with Photoshop 3.0 through CS2, on Windows and Mac. Unless you are using CS2 specific features, the your Import and Format DLLs should already work with CS on Windows.
On the Mac, the executable format changed between CS and CS2, and you would need to build a PEF plugin for CS. MPW and CodeWarrior can do that; Xcode cannot.

I have CS4 In design but when I try to open a certain file I get the answer that all plug in´s is not in my program. How can I update my plug ins?

Am I correct that Photos does not support external editors? i.e., in Aperture, I click Photos Edit with.... and can open in Photoshop or various plug-ins. Changes are then automatically saved back to Aperture. Nonexistent in Photos?

Thanks Larry. That certainly gives me some understanding. Can't imagine I'm the only Aperture user with that concern, so I certainly hope Adobe and others will fill the void. Without that feature, Photos is pretty much a non-started for me.

Where can i get free plug-ins for my photoshop?

Be careful to check for compatibility, you need to check whether a plug-in works with the version of Photoshop you purchased/subscribed to.

When I try to install some plugins I get "Can't find Internet Plug-ins folder". Friends with the same machine using the same browser can download just fine. What gives?

When I try to install a plugin in any browser on my Mac Mini or my MacBook Pro, I get a "Can't find Internet Plug-Ins folder" message. Other friends with the same machines can install the plugin just fine. We can't find any reason why the plugin won't install on mine. Any ideas out there?
Thanks,

Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can only read" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

Can only save as psd or other photoshop file format

in cs3 extended i made changes to a photo (duotone,cuves, vignette etc.)each on its own layer,then flattened the image. when i go to save as, the dialog box only has photoshop file formats.other images i have done have all the file formats available.
i tried converting the image. it will convert as a jpg but not a tiff. also tried save as copy, no go. i ftp tiffs to my lab so i really need help with this one.
i am running windows vista.
thanks jerry

"Anyone" is a perfectly good single word, Dave: "Tennis, anyone?" However, "any one" is the proper usage in other contexts, where the "one" is the focus, as in "I'd be willing to take any one of the many very fine prints Dave made."

Photoshop File Formats.pdf .... where is it?

Hello
I am looking at the API documentation, and it refers to an external file called Photoshop File Formats.pdf. Since I wanted to read and write PSD files, rather than actually interfacing with Photoshop, I think I may just want to use this document as a resource to do this.
Anyone know where this document can be found?
Thanks

Click on "Get access to Photoshop SDK" on the following web site http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/photoshop/devcenter.html
Then ask specifically for the "file formats document" and that you want to read and write PSD files in your application.

Does Photoshop have extras, plug-ins, 3rd party programs, etc to purchase?

Does Photoshop have extras, plug-ins, 3rd party programs, etc to purchase like music and video editing software can?
If so, where is the price chart? I need to know these things as I am concidering purchasing Photoshop.
Thank you.

I did look at the plug-in page quickly. I noticed the free ones and the pay ones.
From using producing programs, some photo editing and some video editing programs: I'd rather use what is there and what is inside first. Then look at the extras. I am realizing how deep this can get. But if I bought PS or CS 5 or whatever: I would want to learn.
I know that some plug-ins, extras, etc are their own and are highly useful. I do understand that it can take longer but in some programs you can do what a plug-in can do though it may require more steps. I'd rather learn the program and then get the short-cuts. But again some are stand alone and highly uselful - these are what I am looking for and want to know about.
I didn't know there were so many books though, this is new information. I believe that I was told a while ago about a couple or that one comes out with a new release. I like to read and know the who, what, when, where, why and how: but most of my time should be in the program. Eg: I read my photo editing programs manuals. That was important and helped me. I need to know terms, language, some short-cuts/how-to, etc. But getting in there is way more important.
Any more information is great. Please keep it comming. I am not getting the program in the immediate future, it's the pricing issue right now and that it's way more important for me to use what I have as I am still learning big time. Plus I have to get on my camera a lot more and draw a bit more.
Thank you.

Photoshop File Formats incomplete

In short, the Photoshop File Formats documentation @ http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/ left out at least one key piece of information:
It is not noted anywhere that the global Additional Layer Information entries (after Global Layer Mask Info) are padded to 4 bytes in length but that padding is not included in the length field.
It's a bit frustrating when you're trying to figure out what is going wrong and you learn they just completely left that bit out of the specs.
I saw this mentioned in code comments from way back in 2007!
Can someone please update these specs?

I have imported my pictures into aperture, how do I export into jpeg files so i can share files with friends who dont use aperture ?

If you want the same export settings on some or all of the images you can select all that have the same export requirements and export them as a group.
If all the images have the same requirements then you can select them all and run the export command.
