Canon, auto rotate, RAW with PhotoShop can not handle portrait!!!

I shot in RAW using Canon EOS Digi SLRs.
My Canon bodys have auto rotate, so if I shot a portrait image when it loads into iPhoto it turn it the right way up. This is fine. But I use PhotoShop CS3 (it does it with any PhotoShop version) if I drag an image from iPhoto that is in landscape mode and drop it onto the PhotoShop icon in the dock it moves the RAW file to PhotoShop fine and I can edit this in RAW.
If the image is in portrait, then when I drag it again to PhotoShop it send a JPG version and not the RAW.
To get round this I need to export any portrait images I want to process in RAW then load them into PhotoShop.
Not sure if it's a bug or a feature !!!! but it's been in iPhoto for a year or so.
Now I could try the "edit using...." as the external editor but I also use Aperture and GraphicConvertor so I just drag to the App I want to use.
Any ideas?

Ray,
I believe that what you see is normal. Perhaps I can explain why.
You turn your camera 90 degrees to take the vertical shot. Although your camera never shows you this, the shot is horizontal, with an added flag to display as rotated. When you import it into your library, iPhoto recognizes the original RAW photo and saves it in the Originals file. But iPhoto also recognizes the rotate flag, and it obeys. Since the core philosophy of iPhoto is to preserve an untouched original file, the rotated version gets created and saved into the Modified folder (as a jpeg, see below). There is no way to turn this off.
A note about RAW files. iPhoto will store the RAW file and even export it for you, but it can't display or directly edit the RAW data. So, the RAW file is tucked safely away in the Originals folder, and a jpeg version is created and stored in the Modified folder. In your case, this jpeg is also being rotated to portrait orientation. Again, there is no way to turn this off.
What you can do about the rotation dilemma is turn off the auto-rotate feature in your camera. Upload using Image Capture to a file on your desktop. Open the portrait photos in Photoshop and save (overwriting the original, unrotated image). Once saved, import the folder into your Library. This should give you the correctly oriented RAW in Originals, which will export when you drag it to Photoshop. Note: Preview will not work for rotating the file, because all it does is add the rotate flag, telling Preview to display the file with rotation. It will look okay, but when you export or upload to a website you will still see the original, unrotated file.
Regards.

    How do i update my camera raw? I can not find the download update I've just brought a new d4s and I'm using the iMac with cs6 version. PLEASE HELP..

    The Adobe auto updater is pretty decent in CS6.  Just go to the Photoshop Help menu > Updates.
    You will be able to update ACR, Photoshop and Bridge right there, if there are in fact updates available.

    If you go to Photoshop>About Plug-in and click on the words Camera Raw, what version does it list?
    I suspect you still have Camera Raw 7.0

  • HT4753 Can auto save work with Photoshop 5.0?

    Can auto save work with Photoshop 5.0?
    [email protected]

    No. Autosave/Versions must be built into the app itself to use those OS features. It doesn't work just because it's part of the OS. None of the CS6 apps support it, either. The only Adobe apps that do are the latest versions of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements. And that's only because the have to in order to be allowed in the App Store. In both cases, Adobe also gives users a preference to turn it off.
    What Adobe did do in Photoshop CS6 is add an autosave feature of their own. It saves your work according to whatever time increment you choose. Then if the app crashes, it will try to reopen the saved data when you relaunch the app.

  • I'm getting a lot of 'Photoshop can not print this document' errors

    Has anyone experienced / solved this problem? the error just reads 'Photoshop can not print this document.' with no further information. Flattening the document resolves the problem, but I would like to think that there is a better solution.
    Thanks

    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, what type and size of files you're working with; if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • Photoshop can not print the maximum amount of data that can be spooled to a PostScript printer is 2G

    Hi all,
    This is the first time I've worked with the .psb (large format) size and I have gone to print a PDF of the file and I get the message:
    "photoshop can not print this document because the document is too large. The maximum amount of data that can been spooled to a PostScript printer is 2GB".
    The file itself is a 2700x1570mm 300dpi flatten .psb image that is 500mb in size.
    Not sure how I can get around this, where abouts do I see the image size information that is being spooled?
    Any help would be great

    There's no easy way to see the size of the image that's being spooled, but 2G limit is uncompressed, 4 bytes per pixel (either RGBX where X is a padding byte, or CMYK, depending on the image / printer), times about 1.6 because the image data is sent in ASCII85 format rather than binary.
    With your image at over 100 inches at 300 dpi, you're also perilously close to the 32k limit on the pixels in any one dimension (31,900 by my calculations) that PostScript can handle.
    The limits are 32767 pixels in either dimension, and 2GB of data total. The data that's sent at 4 bytes per pixel, and converted to ASCII85 so that it'll make it across any connection. ASCII85 gives about a 1.6 expansion factor, if I remember correctly.
    Do you really need a 10 foot image printed at 300 dpi? If not, changing down to 200 dpi will probably let this image print.

  • Elements 12, Epson Artisan 1430, "Photoshop can not print this document"

    I recently upgraded to Elements 12 and also got a new printer, Epson Artisan 1430. I got some great prints and then one day, it stopped working. Elements error. No error number just a message, "Photoshop can not print this document" I tried restarting the program, the printer, and the computer. No luck. Tried different graphic files; no luck. The printer works with all other programs beautifully. I cannot find help anywhere on Adobe forum. Running Windows 7

    John, I deleted the printer and deleted those folders and reinstalled the printer using the printer menu. When I tried the apple software update it said my software was up to date and didn't offer an option to get updated print drivers. I tried printing again and the same thing happened.
    Syd,
    I am trying to print from the Macbook to the Artisan entirely over a wireless network. The Macbook has not been plugged directly into the printer or to the router at any point in this. I did try what you suggested, resetting the printing system, and as earlier it did not offer any software updates when I looked for one. I tried printing again and the same result.
    I dug around some more directories and found some more files with the epson name in there and deleted those and then attempted to reinstall using the printer setup page, and then again tried a software update and again it didn't find any new drivers, and of course the same printing error occurred again.
    It sure appears that the MacOS is holding onto drivers somewhere that I cannot discover because when I reinstall the printer it takes it all of 3-4 seconds to install, and when I try to do the software update it is not finding any new drivers anywhere.
    Syd, I agree that there seems to be something specifically corrupted about the printer driver itself, however, but is there another way to remove drivers?
    Should I try uninstalling everything and attempting a USB installation to see if prints that way?

Must be a Windows bug then.

  • Elements 11 - when I try to print a photo, I get this message "photoshop can not print this document"

    What do I need to do when I get this message? "Photoshop can not print this document"

    Those pixel dimemsions have aspect ratios that are not the same as a 5 x7 print:
    1360 x 1360 = 1.0
    790 x 640 = 1.23
    2048 x 1366 = 1.5
    An 7 x 5 image = 1.4.
    So you'll need to crop the images to 5 x 7 before printing.  The first two images are a little light in the pixels to produce a high resolution 5 x 7 print.

  • Can LabVIEW process images in RAW format? Can LabVIEW handle images in the multimegapixel formats produced by some of the current DSLR cameras (e.g. 5000x3500 pixels)?

    Can LabVIEW process images in RAW format?  Can LabVIEW handle images in the multimegapixel formats produced by some of the current DSLR cameras (e.g. 5000x3500 pixels)?
    Can LabVIEW be programmed to remotely acquire images from a commercial DSLR camera with DirectShow capability?  e.g. Canon Rebel T2i.

    1) So RAW files have a multitude of possible file extensions / formats, and it depends on which of these extensions you use. If the image can fit in memory, it can be brought into LabVIEW. An image of that size should be able to come into LabVIEW. Are you considering using NI-Vision to do this? You would look into the VI called "IMAQ ReadFile." There are a certain set of standard formats that can be read.
    2) If a camera is DirectShow capable, and there are USB drivers available to access that camera through a Windows machine, then you should be able to bring that camera up in NI's software such as LabVIEW.

  • Performance issue is most probably caused by the fact that IE can not handle such amount of requests ? is it ?

    Hi,
    I'm running web applications and there is performance issue is most probably caused by the fact that IE can not handle such amount of requests that are forwarded to the server at the same time.
    Data:
    On IE(10) – search variety 11- it takes a long time (about 25 seconds for response) .
    in general, the responding time of "search variety" in IE is much longer than Chrome.
    IE - see:http://screencast.com/t/kSeT3hC2mRfV

  • Illutrator Can Not Handle Texture, why?

    Hey Folks, not sure if it's me or something I am doing wrong but it seems to me ever since illustrator cs5, the program has real issues when it comes to handling a vector texture. I get that a vector grunge texture has alot o points and etc, but it's never been this pad. I have a simple simple grunge texture and it freezes illustrator, I have tried various kinds of textures and basically the program can not handle it at all. I have tried on other comps as well but it just seems like there is  real issue with ANY kind of texture, even really simple ones. I am really frustrated cause its something that never really used to be an issue.

    Have you tried simplifying the grunge with the "Simplify path" option? I use textures quite a bit in CS5. I agree it's not as fast as I'd like.
