Changing image file types

Is there any way to publish my sites through iWeb with JPEG image files instead of PNG's?
I know I could open them in Photoshop and "Save for Web..." as a jpeg, but I'm looking for a quicker way to produce these files from iWeb.

Hi jrod318,
Are you talking about the template image files? If you are, jpgs will not work because they don't have the transparency that the png files have. This is why the templates are so nice with the layered transparent image files.
I know there is a better way to explain it, but that is the gist of it.

  • I uploaded and edited my RAW image, clicked 'Save As', and changed the file type from .psed to .jpg.

    I edited my raw image in Photoshop CS6, selected 'Save As', and changed the file type from .psed to .jpg. I also selected 12 and large file when the window popped up, concluding my 'saving as'. My computer does not recognize the file type and won't open them. Can someone help me? Thanks!

    When naming files, stick to the letters of the ENGLISH alphabet, numbers and underscores.  Do not use illegal characters like apostrophes, commas, asterisks, ampersands, hatch or pound signs, diacritics or accented characters, slashes, etc.
    While the period (dot) is not an illegal character per se, your file names should have only one period and that should always be followed by the file type extension.

  • Page Snapshot on Mac using Shift+Command+4, can I change the file type?

    Is there a way to have this feature save the screen shot as a .jpg or something other than .png?
    Thanks for The help!

    Actually you can change the file type, using a defaults write command in Terminal. Whatever you select changes the file type for all screenshots until/unless you globally change it again. All OnyX does is run this command in the program's interface--if you don't know how to use Terminal you may prefer this. If you want to use Terminal, you would launch it, then copy this command:
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg
    Paste it into the Terminal window and then press the Return key. I believe you need to restart for the change to take effect.

  • Change of file type

    I have a fair amount of picture files either stored as TIFF or JPEG in various subfolders. Since I upgraded to Tiger 10.4.3 (I believe but am not sure, anyway since recently) some of the files appear randomly in Finder as a "Unix executable file". Note that these false false types appear among other picture file with the correct file type!
    I have, for other reasons, repaired permissions but do not see a reason why this would change a file type.
    Since these files are older scanned family pictures from the last and previous century I am most interested to know how this could have happened and whether there is a way to revert the file type back so I can use them for inclusion in a family document and processing (in Adobe PS Elements for example)??
    Thank you for any helpful suggestion.

    Filetypes are assigned via metadata or extender. In the PC and *nix world the extender (.JPG, .DOC, .GIF) indicate what kind of data the file holds and, by extension, what icon the Finder should display for it. Traditionally, the Mac world has depended on metadata, information contained within the file, that not only indicates what kind of file it is, but what program created it. OS X has somewhat muddied the picture for we Mac users. For a time it appeared Apple intended to do away with metadata and depend on extenders. However it now appears that metadata is on the ascendancy again.
    I'm not sure what happened to your files but I'm fairly certain of two things: those files didn't have any extender (or an invalid one) and also either had no metadata or it was damaged.

  • Image file type and settings

    hi i have a hard time determining which image file type works best in capt 3.
    jpg's for example get really bad,
    Which photoshop export settings (png 8/ 24 , dither no dither etc etc) work best and have a nice file size / image quality balance?
    Can anyone help me out, much obliged and loads of karma points to you!

    Hi there
    I too use PNG images. Note that you have control over the quality settings for images.

  • Best point to change picture file type

    Is there any way of changing camera file type from JPG to say PNG at the point of import the pictures from my camera to Elements Organizer.  As far I know the camera only sends jpeg format.  It seems like a long way to have to bring them all in to organizer, pass them to edit and resave each file individually as a changed file type?  If someone can give me a better way I would certainly appreciate the information.

    At import, you cannot change file types.
    It is not clear why you want photos to be .png files. As I understand things, .png files are not a good choice for photographs.
    Nevertheless, you can change file types in bulk via the Editor command File->Process Multiple Files. Again, I honestly don't think you are gaining anything by changing .jpg files to something else, so unless you have reasons that I have never heard, I would advise that you leave them as .jpg.

  • How to change the file type from IMOVIE PROJECT to other types of file

    how to change the file type from IMOVIE PROJECT to other types of file??
    thank you very much for your help=]

    I am not sure what you mean, but once you make a project. Then go to the share menu and you can export the project to iDVD, itunes, mobileme, quicktime.
    Share export quicktime movie will allow you to export to a variety of codecs. What specific export are you looking to share the movie in? What is the final source that the movie will be displayed?

  • When replacing an .indd on creative cloud, it changes the file-type

    I have uploaded a few InDesign (.indd) files from cs5.5 to my creative cloud account so I can share them with my team for approval / feedback. If I try and replace the file with a newer version (still .indd from cs5.5) it changes the file type to octet-stream and it can't be viewed.
    Restoring back to the ORIGINAL version brings back the original, as an indesign file, and it is viewable again.
    Am I doing something wrong when replacing a file? This seems like the logical way of doing it (they even refer to them as revisions, as that seems to be the point)

    My workplace uses CS5.5. I'm in the process of convincing them to move to CC by personally signing up to the month/month plan (however this isn't helping).
    I am uploading using Chrome Version 29.0.1547.66 m.

  • Newbie stuck - how do I change the file type of a photo I am formatting from a TIFF to a JPG?

    I am new to Aperture and struggling to figure out some of the basics, even with the tutorials.  I need to submit a photo for an art competition - the master is a TIFF and I need a JPG under 1.8 MB - how do I change the new version's file type and keep it with the master?
    Thank you in advance.

    I can't recommend the method proposed by Carolyn Samit; in fact, I recommend ignoring it.
    Aperture is large, complex, and can take some time to learn to use.  It is also quite powerful, and can handle nearly all -- or all -- common tasks you throw at it.
    I have written a very short guide to Aperture which was intended to provide some firm footing for those getting started.  I humbly suggest that you start with a quick review.
    One of the things that presents a bit of disorientation for new users is that, in practice, Aperture keeps your pictures in a kind of limbo.  There are good reasons for this -- suffice it for now to accept that you import image-format digital files into Aperture, you use Aperture to organize and optimize these as Images, and then when need a file to use outside of Aperture, you export you Image.  It is at export that you format your Image: you select the file type, the compression amount, the file name, the file size, and more.
    In your case, then, you will export your Version, and set the file type to TIFF (recommended above JGP whenever quality is paramount). There is no way to know the file size in bytes prior to creating it.  Start with a full-size TIFF and, if necessary, knock it down by percentage until the exported file is less than 1.8 MB.
    There is no reason to attempt to keep this file with the Image in Aperture.  Send it on its way.  Any time you need another file from your Image, you can create it fresh via "File→Export→Version".
    HTH.  If it doesn't, ask more.

  • Changing a file type that will not open

    sorry if this is  a super simple question but I poked around and can't figure it out. Some time back I rented a Nikon scanner and scanned and saved a bunch of my images to my hardrive. I can see the thumbnails of said photos plain as day. When I try and open said photos in Bridge of PS5.1 it wants to open the file in conjunction with the scanner for some reason. When I click to open an image the icon box from the scanner software pops up as if it is loading then the error message box comes up to say : 'The application Nikon Scan 4 quit' unexpectedly giving the option to Ignore/Report/Relaunch -  In any case - it wants to open the Tiff files I have saved through the Nikon Scan 4. I don't get it as to why that is but in any case I would imagine I just have to save as another file type? When I look to see the type of file it is : 'nikon scan Tiff file'
    Because I CAN see the thumbnails in Bridge all I need to do is change the type of file but I see no way to do it as it is not currently saved as any file name suffix - the name of the file is not .jpeg or .tiff - it simply does not have any file type currently associated with them

    'The application Nikon Scan 4 quit' unexpectedly giving the option to Ignore/Report/Relaunch -  In any case - it wants to open the Tiff files I have saved through the Nikon Scan 4.
    You should also check Bridge Preferences File type association. See what the default application to open in is for the tif files. If this is Nikon change it to PS and it should work.
    It might be that when having used the Nikon software there was an option to hide the extension selected.
    Any way, first duplicate one file and try to add tif as Tai Lao stated in his post and try if that is working.

  • How to see all image file types when saving images without selecting "all files"

    Hallo, and thank you fom reading.
    I am a person who saves a lot of images online in different folders with different names like G - 456 or F - 35.
    I have been using firefox 10.0.2 for a long time because of a bug (I guess) that made it easier to save images.
    When I saved an image it would always show me all the image files in any folder I wanted to save it, and that way making it easier for me to save files with the right names.
    Now with the newer firefox (currently 19.0) whenever I try to save a JPEG I only see the JPEG files in the folder and only way to see the others is by selecting "save as type" all files, but with this I also see all the files that are not images.
    This used to save me a lot of trouble and a bit of time but I dont see anything in the options menu that can help me. Is there a way to recreate this function?
    Thank you for your time.

    I suspect this is a Windows problem. I am surmising the FilePicker uses the Operating System or Desktop facilities. Does Windows 7 offer any other file categories like ''images'' ?
    I do not normally use Windows 7, but may the option depend upon the directory being an indexed one, I ask after finding this thread ''Bring File types tab back'' [http://www.windows7taskforce.com/view/819]
    This question is a duplicate of [/questions/951764]
    Normally I would lock the duplicate question, but in this instance I will leave it open as it is unanswered and someone may give a better reply.

  • Changing image file names

    hi all.
    can anyone help me find a thread (can i run a search somehow in ("Your Stuff"?) where folks were kind enough to help me understand how to change file names?
    i am reading through some help documentation on Batch Change but i am trying to remember what i should be doing to most efficiently solve my problem.
    basically i have images in aperture which have non-sensical names related to their originally existing in a pc folder organization originally and i would like to both rename them in aperture but also be able to have them EXPORTED to my desktop so i can upload them to the web with some reasonable sounding title such as "client1-town1-HousingType-FirmName-photographer.png" or something similar. right now the images i want to publish are ORGANIZED IN ALBUMS and have names like "folio_construction_other_turtle_134543.png"
    i think i WOULD LIKE to change the name of the master but i am not totally sure about this and when i run a Metadata > Batch Change and pull down version name i get selections that i do not fully understand.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/yvu1u7eskbmhcik/Screen%20Shot%202012-12-03%20at%201.58 .46%20PM.png
    i /am/ familiar with a handle little tool called Name Mangler which basically allows me to easily delete all the PREFIX information (such as "folio_construction_other_turtle" and then to pre-pend something like "client1-town1-HousingType-FirmName-photographer" in front of the image number which would be ideal...
    apologies for asking this again but until i get through it once i am finding it all a bit tricky.
    THANKS

    Hi Leonie.
    Thank you so much. I am going to be doing a lot of this and just so i understand:
    Delete the images you exported and renamed from your Aperture library before reimporting, to avoid creating duplicates. When deleting from the album that you used to export, use the command "delete version", not "delete from album". Do not delete the projects that the images came from, only the images.
    Can you help me understand which images i am deleting? I mean, is there a way to delete just the images in the ALBUM because if i have to go in and delete the images from a Project there are going to be a lot more images in the Project and it is going to be very hard to tell which images have been renamed and which have not been renamed. If i have to do this by deleting the images in the Project, i suppose i could use one of your suggestions to color all the images in an ALBUM, say yellow, and then see where the images show up in Projects but even then i think it will be a bit tricky. Are you saying i can just delete the images in the ALBUM by doing "Delete Version"?
    Use "File > import" to reimport your image files. I'd put all images that shall be imported into the same project into one folder, and then import each folder on its own.
    OK. So - well - so now i am importing all of the images that i originally had in the Database and they are /basically/ (i moved the folder organization around a little bit while the images were on my desktop in this first attempt...) - they are basically getting IMPORTED into Aperture now with the "new" images coming into the database into a new Project that is named according to the Album that they were in?
    This is a little tricky for me. Will the old Albums still exist? What if i had more than one Album with an image in it. Also, this "new" image will be in a /new/ Project but will it still be in the OLD PROJECT with the old name? Or, i guess i am getting a little confused as to how this will work.
    Select the project in the Library Inspector, that you want to import the folder of images into, then set the "Destination" in   "Import settings > Aperture Library" brick to this project  and set "Store Files" to "In the Aperture Library".
    OK. I can try this here soon. What does Store Files in the Aperture Library do? I guess these images are getting imported as if they are new and they are getting imported with no external references?
    Set "Rename files" to "None" or "version name". Both will keep the name you edited.
    OK. Not sure i totally understand but i can try this as well. I guess this is making sure Aperture will keep the original names.
    THANKS
