Editing an export script - please help!

Hello Photoshop friends,
so I have an export script that I downloaded from the web which exports all layers to a file type of your choice - PNG, GIF, etc. This is fine, but the dialog box doesn't support file format options such as matte, dither, transparency and so forth. Is it possible to edit the script to give it literal values for these inaccessible variables instead of the default? I'v been digging around the script, but I'm not really sure what I'm doing.
Specifically, I want to leave the script intact except the following settings for the PNG8 format:
Colours 256
Transparency - YES
"No transparency dither"
Matte: "none" (currently it gives me a white matte)
Please, I would really appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction please, please!
Ulerika.

Hey Michael, thanks for your quick reply. I tried to attach the script, but the forum won't allow me to do so. The script in question is here:
http://tranberry.com/photoshop/photoshop_scripting/tips/layerstoPNG.html
There is one big section dealing with PNG8 which I suspect is the place which needs to be changed. An extraction from this section for example reads:
"var id35 = charIDToTypeID( "Mtt " );
desc4.putBoolean( id35, true ); //matte
var id36 = charIDToTypeID( "MttR" ); //matte color"
Thanks.

  • DVD Audio and Subtitle script Please HELP

    Subtitle Audio Scripts Please Help
    Posted: Sep 3, 2006 8:04 PM
    I need to write a script that does the following:
    1st I have the end user choose if they want subtitles on or off and then both the buttons will default for the user to chose a language choice. So I need a script that will play just audio streams and a script that will play audio with the same language subtitle. Also if the user just pushes the language button I need the script it to default to play just that language...
    Here is what I have scripted already please tell me where my mistake is:
    Button Command
    Subtitles
    On mov GPRM 0,0
    Jump Special Features: English
    Off mov GPRM 0,1
    Jump Special Features: English
    English 1. mov GPRM 0,2
    2. Set System stream Au(Audio Stream 1) if (0=0)
    3. Set System Stream St(Subtitle Stream 1)(ON) if (0=0)
    4. Goto 11 if (GPRM 0=0)
    5. Set System stream Au(Audio Stream 1) if (0=1)
    6. Set System Stream St(Subtitle Stream 1)(Off) if (0=1)
    7. Goto 11 if (GPRM 0=1)
    8. Set System stream Au(Audio Stream 1) if (0=2)
    9. Set System Stream St(Subtitle Stream 1)(Off) if (0=2)
    10. Goto 11 if (GPRM 0=2)
    11. Jump JOFDVD:Start
    12. Exit
    All my language scripts will be similar just with different audio and sub streams.
    Help Please-
    Ryan-

    Hi There
    I think your error is in the first line of your script.
    You're using GPRM 0 to set your subtitle condition and when you press enter on your english button your first line says
    1. mov GPRM0,2
    I'm assuming you want to use this first comand to set your languange condition so you should use GPRM 1 (or more) - at this stage all you're doing is removing the subtitle condition set by your earlier script.
    Good luck
    Cheers

  • About preview edits PDF problem? Please help!

    When I fill some forms and do the checks on PDF file using preview, it shows like this.
    Anyone knows why? it doesn't like check or X? or if anyone knows any good PDF editor? Please help!

    Your Preview is putting both a checkmark and an X into the checkbox. My Preview only puts a checkmark. I can't see where you can specify either one or the other (X or checkmark) in Preview on my Yosemite 10.10.1 with Preview version 8.0. Did you do something to enable "X" rather than checkmark?
    What version of OS X and Preview are you using?
    I use an app called PDFpenPro to do this sort of thing with usually (fill out forms and editing PDF files) and it also only puts checkmarks into the checkboxes.

  • Motion Export glitches - PLEASE HELP!!!!

    I have had it with Motion.
    I am trying to export something that I have had done for 3 weeks and each time I export it a new glitch comes up on the export. For instance - graphics will be missing, video will all of the sudden gitter, and emitter will move, a graphic will move. Is this program for real? How can anyone run a business with this???????
    I have a totally clean system. Everyrthing has been reinstalled - Is Motion just the buggiest progam ever? Please help me if you can - My clients are hanging in the balance. Im exporting as an animation millions plus. Not using compressor. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    Thanks for the info -
    Is there any way around it?
    Why is there that size restriction?
    At this point - Im resolved to render pieces til they work properly and re-assemble them in FCP or Motion withouth the 2048 size problem and cut my losses. That will take far less time then fixing all of the graphics that exceed that size restriction. I love the ease of Motion - its just frustrating some of the bugginess Im getting from the program.
    Anyway - let me know if you have any other helpful ways around this -
    Thanks for helping me solve this - I'll have to find more creative ways or use 3D plugins to make things 'fly' at you in the future.

  • Export presets - please help!

    Hi everyone,
    In Premiere CS3 (MAC) I had a list of presets under Adobe Media Encoder,such as NTSC source to download 1024 and HDTV 1080p 24 etc.
    These were perfect for the sort of things I was doing, but in CS4 they aren't there any more. There is no Adobe Media Encoder option under export, just media, and I've tried recreating the settings in there, but I get jumpy audio etc.
    Is there a way to import these presets from CS3? If so where are the presets saved?
    Please help!!

    In fact, ignore me, I realised if you choose H.264 the presets appear underneath..

    Trying to finish up a project but my school just upgraded to cs4 this week. It's running on a mac. I tried to export to no avail, watched a tutorial and saw that media encoder is supposed to launch on export. Since it wasn't launching, I went to media encoder and launched it seperately and re-exported. It still did not work. Is there a patch that needs downloading? Please help me get through this. I need to wrap this up ASAP.

  • Trying to create complicated script, please help!

    I work at a cell phone store where business is less than excellent. We have this nifty tool where i enter a customers phone number and zip code in and it tells me if the are eligible for a discount. So my boss wants me to type in a phone number, beginning with the prefix 208640, and 208641, and beginning at the end of 0000 and ending at 9999, and calling all customers who are shown as eligible, if a phone number and zip code combination does not match, the site will rout me back to the entry page, and if a phone number/zip match it will take me to a new page showing me the results... this sounds like a job for a computer, and I am not willing to put that much time and effort into a useless, remedial task for $9.00 an hour as store manager... Please help!

    Automator might be the wrong tool. For scripting queries, post to the AppleScript forum under OS X Technologies.

  • Missing audio after export. Please help!

    So I made a video for myself and friends on iMovie and included some music that I legally purchased. This video is entirely non-commercial so I didn't see an issue with using some music for it.
    when I export from iMovie, I get the video with no sound and then after the video ends I get the audio with no video. Can anyone explain to me what in the world is going on? First I can see the entire video with no audio, then all I see is white and the audio from the video pops up.
    Last problem is that all the music is missing from iTunes. I can hear all the other audio, but the music I imported from iTunes is missing. It's just the regular audio I imported from the video camera with the clips. Can someone please help me out?
    THANKS!

    hi Sue,
    In my timeline I had the music across both audio bars. Once I reimported the audio, it was all on the third timeline bar. It was colored orange. The audio files do not overlap at all however. So the top bar is filled with the video tracks. The second bar is empty. The third bar has the audio files. They are one after another, seperated by a second or two of silence. There is audio playing on some of the clips of video, but on most of the clips I have muted so that the music should be all you hear. I actually muted the clips themselves, and not the entire bar.
    All the boxes on the far right are checked. I do not have a camera attached. I do have an external hard drive attached via firewire. I have over 80 individual clips in the video. I have 512 Megs of RAM and a 1.25 Ghz processor on my lampstand iMac G4. The file is about 9 minutes long.
    when I export it to quicktime all the video shows up, without any errors except for the fact that it is completely silent. At the end of the video, I get a white screen and the audio from the video clips starts playing, in order, as though I extracted the audio from the entire video and placed it at the end for no reason. None of the music plays. The files that were muted appear to be staying muted, but the ones that have sound are playing. I followed the instructions above about burning a CD, importing the audio files from the CD and then exporting the video to avoid copy protection issues.
    Under my advanced options in the Preferences window I unchecked "extract audio in paste over" and "filter audio from camera" after the first two times this happened to me. the problem continued after I unchecked those.
    I think I've given you as much info as you might need. If there are any other questions please ask and I'll try to get the info for you. Thank you VERY much for your time and help.
