DNG not recognised by photoshop

I have two cameras… a 16mp Sony A580 and a 12mp Panasonic FZ200. When I put these through Adobe DNG Convertor (version 7.2.0.46), this is what I see…. Sony raw in (size around 17meg), DNG out (size around 17meg); Panasonic raw in (size around 13meg), DNG out (size around 47 meg). Is this disparity normal?
I’m a new Lightroom user (version 5.7) and I noticed that when I import, there is an option of ‘Copy as DNG’ so perhaps I don't need to use the DNG convertor. However, when I select this option, the DNGs produced from Panasonic images are suspiciously small at around 12 meg. Furthermore when I try to open them in Photoshop CS3, I get “Could not complete your request because this is not the right sort of document”.
So my main question is why are DNGs produced by Lightroom so much smaller than DNGs produced by the DNG convertor? Presumably they use the same plug-in? Have I found a bug in Lightroom?
Thanks in advance…
Rod

Thanks for this... at least I understand why the file is huge!
And when I set Lightroom to Camera Raw 4.1, the resulting DNGs are also huge, but can now be read by CS3.
Thanks very much for your help,
Rod

  • New Camera RAW to DNG but DNG not recognised

    I recently purchased a Sony Cybershot RX100M3. The RAW files are Sony's ARW2. I have Photoshop CS4 and Bridge. Naturally they won't recognise the new RAW files. I converted then to DNG using Adobe DNG converter. However CS4 and Bridge would not recognise the resulting DNG. I thought all DNG files were the same. Am I wrong? Has any body ideas how to solve the problem short of upgrading?

    When you convert the files to dng using the dng converter, set the Compatibility to Camera Raw 5.4 and later

  • Scanner not recognised in Photoshop CS3

    My Canon 9950F scanner is recognised in Photoshop CS2 but not in Photoshop CS3. I've deleted the driver and reinstalled but still the same issue. Any ideas?

    Scanner drivers are usually very sensitive to different versions of applications and the system itself. First thing to do is to go to the scanenr providers website and look for newer drivers and download and isntall the latest ones and not use the old ones that once upon a time came with the scanner. Installation of scanner drivers are often tricky and you have to follow the instructions provided to the letter. We ahd an issue at work with an Epson scanner driver and Photohsop CS2. Installation and features worked just fine on on G5 - but not on another with identical system. Go figure. In the end we cloned the entire machine with the working installation (user is on homeserver on network which doesn't interfere with content on the machine itself) to the other one and then it worked there as well.
    Or get VueScan from http://www.hamrick.com/ - supports most scanners in many versions.
    Edit: I doubt that scanner providers already have scanner drivers for Photoshop CS3.

  • Plug-in for Canon iPF8400 not recognised in Photoshop CC 2014. Lost Topaz and Nik Software as well.

    I have just updated to Photoshop CC 2014 and lost the plug-ins for Canon iPF8400 printer, Topaz Labs, and Nik Software. I had been asked if I wanted to migrate plug-ins and said yes. I have dropped the plug-ins into the Photoshop plug in folder but they are note being recognised.

    Similar problems here with Topaz Labs plug-ins.
    Unfortunately I have now uninstalled Photoshop CC so the option of copying them into Photoshop CC 2014 is no longer viable and Photoshop CC 2014 simply does not recognise them.
    Waiting for response from Topaz labs

  • Does anyone know a workaround? ATI Radeon 4500 graphics card not recognised with Photoshop CC

    Hi Guys,
    I recently upgraded a few bits to my Dell studio 5 which is somewhat of it's age now. I put a solid state in, upped the RAM and also installed windows 8.1.
    The machine has been running a treat, almost as though it was a new beast, however this has been at a price. Elements within Photoshop now do not work such as the 3D elements and paint brush tip preview amongst a few other things, however the 3D elements not working is a problem. As a designer, its quite important I have these features working, but since my upgrades and enhancements its cost me. I have been on the ATI website (Now AMD) and downloaded a fair few versions of the drivers for my ATI Radeon 4500. I even installed the new patch for windows 8 but to no avail.
    I am wondering if anyone has had this issue and got around it. I have read loads of different forums and tried all sorts of installs but its still not working.
    Give me a shout if you have beat this annoying issue
    Cheers

  • Printer profiles not recognised in Photoshop CS6 print dialogue

    Note that the Illustrator, Indesign and Acrobat print dialogues see all my (custom) printer profiles.
    Even Photoshop sees them in the Apply Profile and Convert to Profile dialogues: just not when trying to print.
    Is this a known problem?

    Thanks, Jeff. This issue goes far beyond Adobe. I'm trying to resolve colorspace problems that get even more confusing when there are multiple web pages or other documents at multiple websites, including software companies and camera companies that have conflicting information for the same thing. I don't want to add something else into the mix that may make things worse. Unless the user can have the settings that they know worked on their device to rely on as a point of reference to make controlled changes to accommodate a software change, it's like taking two handfulls of M&Ms to represent various colorspaces in three places in a program and using trial and error to figure out which two or three colors to use and in which order. I think of this as informative dialog and not venting.
    Update: After burning through another color ink cartridge and 20 more sheets of Kodak glossy photo paper, I managed to come up with a combination of profiles and colorspaces that are acceptable with the Kodak ESP9 printer in PS CS6. While Adobe RGB should work from the Nikon D7000 JPEG for a larger color gamut, with the Kodak printer, the colors were dull. Went back to sRGB in the camera and sRGB IEC61966-2.1 for the working RGB profile. In this printer, color management cannot be disabled in the printer itself, so I selected Adobe RGB. In the PS Print Settings Color Management, PS Manages Colors,  and the Printer Profile is Beta RGB (Adobe RGB is not an available choice). After increasing the photo brightness to about +20, the contrast slightly, and increasing the shadows setting to bring out the shadowed areas somewhat, the printed photo is a close match to the on-screen image on the calibrated LED monitor. When I tried CIE RGB, the colors were more saturated but had too much blue. Maybe this will help others.

  • Raw xmp (sidecar file) settings not recognised by Photoshop (Windows / CS3)

    Hello World!
    Jpgs opened from Photoshop aren't reflecting the ACR amendments. Are xmp files truly sidecar?
    Thanks,
    Andrew.

    Changes made to JPEG images in ACR are stored as metadata within the JPEG image. Those changes will not be read directly in Photoshop. It will be necessary for you to modify your bridge preferences and make sure you have selected "Prefer Camera Raw for JPEG..." Then I think your action will work properly. In your batch setup you need to make sure you check the Override File Open Commands... And then they should be opened through ACR without displaying Camera Raw.

  • Scanner not recognised in Photoshop

    I have new HP5520 printer it prints from Photoshop cs5 but doesn't show at the import command for scanning. The scanner works with image capture and I know I can save images and drop them into Photoshop it just seems silly that this doesn't all work together. Any ideas please

    Quit Photoshop if it's open.
    Open your Applications folder then control or right click:  Adobe Photoshop CS5
    Then click Get Info
    In the Get Info panel select:  Open in 32 bit mode
    Launch Photoshop and try scanning.

  • Old CS2 Photoshop & Bridge not recognising files

    My old CS2 version of Bridge and Photoshop will not recognise files from the new(ish) camera I just bought, a Canon EOS5D Mk II.
    It doesn't show a preview image in Bridge and when you click to open it, it just says "Could not complete the request because it is not the right kind of document".
    I can get the Canon software to convert a RAW to TIFF and open it but I want to use the batch processing and selection facilitites of Bridge.
    Any ideas how I can get round this problem?
    Many thanks.

    This is a very old discussion but in short, each new camera has its own unique Raw code. Adobe offers free upgrades for ACR (Adobe Camera Raw needed to convert the Raw data to an actual image) several times a year but only for their latest version of Photoshop (in this case PS6 and PSCC)
    Here is a list of camera's with compatible versions of ACR:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    And the versions of PS with the ACR versions so you can see the minimum required version you need to match your new camera:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    For your 5D II this means at least ACR version 5.2 that comes with CS4
    You can either use the free Adobe DNG converter to first convert your files to DNG and then handle them in CS2 but you can also try to upgrade and match the technology of the camera with your software.
    Besides that, shooting Raw and batch process to tiff without first changes the settings of the Raw file to your custom wishes is sheer pointless. You don't profit from Raw unless you make the effort to first develop the files in ACR  to your custom wishes (or use Canon Software that came with your camera which to my opinion is very clumsy and very very slow / unproductive) and then start batch process for further development in PS or whatever.

  • Bridge and Photoshop CS4 will not recognise the images shot in NEF file

    Shot in Nikon D810 with NEF file but the images will not recognise with Bridge and Photo
    shop CS4

    That camera was recently supported for the first time by ACR 8.6, which needs at least CS6 to run.  You will never be able to open those raw NEF files in CS4, as there will never be an update for CS4.
    Your choices are to upgrade, or to use the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each and every batch of raw NEF files in order to convert them to raw DNGs that you can open in CS4.

  • Photoshop CS3 does not recognise gif or png

    When trying to open a gif or png, I receive the message:
    "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file"
    I am running CS3 and have just added the 10.5.3 update.

    I have a similar problem that suddenly appeared. When properly working, I can save a tif file as a jpeg (or other)and the tag "tiff" will switch to "jpg" in the save description. That does not work anymore. A same example is when I save a Photoshop document as a "tif" or "jpg" or "png," the save description does not change any more to the appropriate form. Meaning, if I took a document named "Mydoc.psd" and tried to save it as a "jpg," I would scroll in the "Format" bar down to "JPEG." BUT, the title of the document will remain as "Mydco.psd." When I try to open it by double-clicking on it, Photoshop will not recognize it. I must open it thru Photoshop only.
    Got recommendations?
    Thanks anyone.

  • Nikon D810 .NEF (small) files converted by DNG Comverter 8.6 is not recognised by Lightroom 5.5 or CameraRaw 8.6

    D810 NEF (small) files converted by DNG Comverter 8.6 is not recognised by Lightroom 5.5 or CameraRaw 8.6. The normal NEF files are visible after conversion. Is there a way out to get the converted DNGs read in LR or ACR?

    No there is not, but as of yesterday, Adobe knows that the 9MP small-raw files don’t work and will likely fix in the final release.  Until then you need to shoot full-res 36MP images.

    Hello hatstead
    Thank you for your tip. It did not work out.
    -  You indicate the folder name for the TWAIN plug-ins to be moved.
    --  The name corresponds to PhotoShop Elements 9.
    --  I am working presently with PhotoShop Elements 10. And the name seams not to correspond.
    -  Do you have a hint how to solve the problem?

  • Having Downloaded the camera raw plug in, files from Nikon D800 not recognised. How do I fix this please?

    I have just had a new hard drive in my MacBook Pro and had to reinstall Photoshop CS4. Despite downloading the most recent Camera Raw plug-in Photoshop does not recognise my raw files from my Nikon D 800

    That is correct. The Nikon D800 RAW NEF requires ACR 6.7  or newer and you need at least CS5  to use ACR 6.7.  You need to download the 8.6 DNG convert and create DNG files for NEF files to use CS4. Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
