Elements 7 tint black and white action in photo effects palette

I have somehow deleted my tint black and white photo effects atn file. Can someone with PSE 7 copy their tint black and white.atn file and send to me. I have the png and thumbnail files, but would like to get the .atn file without re downloading my software. The action is in the photo effect palatte. Will be very much appreciated. Debbie

If Photoshop manages color, you need to pick the correct profile for the printer/paper. The profile will be called something like e.g. <printer name> Epson Premium Glossy, if that's the paper you're using.

Black and White Gray Scale Photos Are Dark When Exported from Indesign to PDF

When I print right from InDesign the black and white photos look great. However, if I print the exported pdf file, the black and white photos are much darker. Is there something I should be doing upon export so that they will look as they do in InDesign?
Thanks,

I have tried different settings in format and color space all with the same results. I'm sure it has to do with system not being calibrated. I'm not to computer literate so not sure how all this works. The other programs must go along with my computer and moniter settings where LR and Elements produce their own rendering independent of settings. Yes, I checked and Elements renders like LR. I found some other forums that discussed similar problems but with color rendering. HMMM, just tried something. In Picassa I switched to Linear Gamma 2.2 in display mode and the LR edited photos look correct. So it must be something along those lines being the problem.

HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format printing black AND white lines on photos

I am having some serious problems with my officejet 7000. I have contacted HP and have went through all the steps required (although all they could do is send me a new head and cartridges to help remedy the problem). This however has failed. Let me give a quick example of my problem. Although these 4 images are different in almost every way, they are printed on the exact same paper lol.

The bottom two 4x6 are on HP Premium Plus photo paper.... Not cheap, and being wasted daily, trying to get this thing to print...
I finally had a break thru when I printed bordered on my 4x6 AND 8x10's.... The printer will work and print flawlessly on a bordered picture... This does not help me when the customers want a borderless picture though. When it is printing a borderless picture, it seems to be rushing through the process, but when it is printing bordered, it takes its time.... any ideas as to how to fix this?
It is a Windows 7 system. Ive tried wire and wireless printing to rule out communication failures. Which also concluded it is not software related due to reinstalling software for wire and wireless.
Sorry to rant, just getting fedup with what could be a great printer......
One more thing... Why cant you print 11x14 on a 13x19 page?!(no option for it )

Sorry to hear about the issue you are facing.
There is an updated print driver for your product which was released:

Check if this newer print driver helps.
To answer your other query about selecting a different size media vs inputting different size, the printer actually does not allow it to protect it from overspray on the carriage.

PSE Elements 9-convert to black and white not working.

I recently bought my wife a new HP computer with Windows 7 64bit and Photoshop Elements 9 to go with it. She has not had any problems up until today.. It seems when she attempts to convert a picture into black and white, photoshop freezes up. Sometimes it will convert the image but most of the time when you go to Enhance--convert to black and white, the little photo of what you want to conver that is on the right hand side of the screen just fills up with dots and then nothing appears on the work area.At that point you cannot close the application or anything else with out Ctrl.alt,delete. I have tried to change the programs compatibility to Windows Xp service pack 2 and 3 as well as running as admin but it does not fix this problem. As far as I know this only occurs when she tries to convert photos to black and white. What can we do? Is PSE9 not compatible with Windows 7 64?

Suggest that you delete preferences:
Preference settings control how Photoshop Elements displays images, cursors, and transparencies, saves files, uses plug‑ins and scratch disks, and so on. If the application exhibits unexpected behavior, the preferences file may be damaged. You can restore all preferences to their defaults.
Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift immediately after Photoshop Elements begins launching. Click Yes to delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements settings file.
A new preferences file is created the next time you start Photoshop Elements. For information on a specific preference option, search for the preference name in Help.

Reprinting black and white photos

I'm using an HP Photosmart Premium C309g All-in-One Printer. When I reprinted an old black and white photo, it came out perfect. However, on subsequent black and white reprints, some photos had orange tints and others had purplish tints. Is there a way of correcting this problem.
This question was solved.

Trouble printing black and white

Friends,
I'm trying to print black and white on an imac i7, snow leopard, hp premium plus all in one (309g) printer. The prints have a slight purple cast. It is highly noticeable when the prints are placed next to older black and whites printed with an HP 8450. I print out of Aperture normally, but I'm having the same problem printing from preview. I use hp paper and inks, and the hp printer profiles.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I used all current profiles for the printer. However, I just tried something different:
I turned off colorsync and let the printer manage the colors. I got a MUCH BETTER
black and white rendition. Who woulda thunk it -- all this effort to manage colors,
and the printer does a better job than we do. Go figger.
Thanks for your help.

You have the right idea, at least in some respects. The trouble with Apple's color managements system and pretty much all graphics programs these days is that those who coded them haven't got a foggy idea about black and white nor even grayscale. For instance the color filter for "black and white" is not true black and white, it is RGB gray; in other words it is using three colors to produce gray (or black) and that is just not the same. RGB gray images are still 24-bit images whereas true grayscale is 8-bit and true black and white is 1-bit. True black and white images can be very high resolution yet be very small files because of the phenomenal compression that's possible. Only those of use who actually work(ed) with black and white film and black & white ink on presses truly understand black and white color. Which is unfortunate because RGB gray is so poor and the files are just HUGE!
I've encountered the same problem, and am trying to solve it also. Perhaps I can find a profile for true black and white. Or create one? For instance, as I mentioned above, Preview has a filter for black and white, (but only to save a pdf file) and if you then save the pdf file as a TIF via that black & white filter and then load the resulting image into a program that's actually capable of black and white, you will find that the file it created is actually RGB gray (24-bit) - it LOOKS gray but it's not. Whereas if you load a true black and white image into Preview (Preview unfortunately has no means of creating true black and white, nor even to convert back to color) then you will discover that now you have the option to save as 1-bit or 8-bit gray (1-bit being true black and white with no shades of gray and 8-bit being grayscale with 256 shades of gray i.e. 0 to 255).
So while PAHU writes...
Black and white printing of photos (aka grayscale printing) uses other colours,
not just black, to make grays. If you can see a purple cast, this could be a result
of the magenta not printing in the correct spot or being too prominent in the print.
...that is correct insofar as what printers/programs typically are doing with the given color profiles, but it is not correct. Grayscale should NOT use other colors; grayscale should use only black (which is also more economical). By turning off colorsync you likely enabled the printer's color management system to take over and print true grayscale (black ink only).
So I don't yet have a solution, but I do agree that you've touched on a glaring deficiency in Mac OS color management and probably a great many graphic programs today, and likely the same goes for many printers.

Help! My photographs are turning black and white!

I edit and save a photograph in color. I then apply a black and white action to it and save it as a different file name. Somehow, when I look back in the folder it's changed the color version of the photograph to Black and white. Please please please help!!!

We can't know anything. You are not providing any system information, what program and version you use, what image files, how you run the actions and so on. In any case, ask in whatever product forum and provide more details - a lot more.

Black and White Filter

Hello!
Is there anyway to apply a black and white filter over all the elements of a Group in Flex 4, please?

Hi,
below is the solution for you problem.Origionally all spark componets are having their label and text in red color.
But when you added these three lines inside the spark group all the elements becomes Black and White.
<s:filters>
                <s:ColorMatrixFilter id="cmf" matrix="{bwMatrix}" />
</s:filters>
So If you want to see them in origional color then comment these three lines.
Hope you will like it. Let me know if you have any issue.Below is code.

How do I get a black and white photo in Photoshop Elements 11?

I have a very old version of Photoshop, release 6 I believe. In that release, I am able to use enhance/brightness and contrast, and when I slide the contrast to 100%, I get a pure black and white image of my photo. I Photoshop 11, which I just purchased today, I am unable to get a pure black and white image, only grayscale. I cut pictures out of wood, and it's fundamentally necessary that I can contrast pictures into pure black and white. How do I do that in Photoshop 11? The first screenshot is what I need in Photoshop 11, the second screen shot is the limitation I'm seeing in Photoshop 11. How do I get a black and white photo??

(I edited this reply because I originally couldn't see the screen shots.)
There was a change made a few versions ago where Brightness and Contrast were improved so that they did not clip values so quickly. This was intended to improve how Brightness and Contrast worked for photographs, but it makes it work less well for purposes such as channel manipulations or printmaking.
In Photoshop there is a Legacy check box in Brightness/Contrast to make it work the "old" way when that is desired. It looks like that check box isn't in Photoshop Elements, which is what you're actually using. I'm not sure if there is a way to get the Legacy behavior in Elements, so you'll want to ask over in the Photoshop Elements forum.

Black and white photos print greenish tint

MacBook Pro 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7 16GB Retina Display. Epson Stylist Photo R320.
When I print Black and White photos that were selected as Black and White in Photoshop, they all print the 50% grays with a Greenish tint. it's like it wants to add missing colors. I changes All the inks and it still occurs. "Photoshop manages colors" profile, "sRGB IEC61966-2.1 Normal Printing. Relative Colorimetric. Using Photo paper.
Can anyone tell me why?

If Photoshop manages color, you need to pick the correct profile for the printer/paper. The profile will be called something like e.g. <printer name> Epson Premium Glossy, if that's the paper you're using.

PSE 8: Color Tinting from Black and White Photo

Basically, the title says it all. Can someone tell me how to add areas of color in a black and white photo for PSE 8?
I really appreciate it.

Using Hue Saturation won't colorize my whole picture? What if I just want to color a hat? I mean, I know about hue/saturation and I know how to colorize. But, how do you do it for something specific within that picture and leaving the rest black and white?
Select what you want to colorize and then apply the colorization methods. You might want to first feather the selection 1 or 2 px to get a soft edge. As to Barbara's first method (painting on a blank layer with Color blend mode), the color tends to be washed out. If you want a deeper color, duplicate the layer and set its blend mode to Multiply; if the result is too dark then lower the duplicate layer's Opacity.

Why do my PRO-100 black and white prints have a color tint?

I am printing on the PIXMA Pro-100 printer and sometimes, for no apparent reason (?), my black and white prints will have a color tint (usually a "redish brown"), and then when printing again... same print, same settings... the same print will be fine, neutral with no tint at all.
Any ideas why?
Also (maybe related?) I don't understand why the Photo-Cyan and Magenta ink cartridges are being depleted when I am NOT printing color, but only Black and White. Am I missing something? When setting up for printing I always make sure the "Black and White Print" feature is selected in the settings dialog "Quick Setup". Doesn't this insure that only the black and grey inks are used as long as I am not "toning"? In other words... if ONLY the black and grey inks are used, isn't the print supposed to be a neutral black and white print? Again... am I missing something?
FYI:
I am printing on Canon Pro Luster and Plus Semi-Gloss papers.
Under "Options - Color Management" I have selected:
(color handling) Photoshop Elements Manages Colors
(image space) Adobe RGB (1998)
(printer profile) Canon PRO-100 <LU> 1/2 Photo Paper Pro Luster
(rendering intent) Perceptual

Go to Solution.

It looks like you have the settings pretty close. But the fact is all printers use all their cartridges to print B&W.
Whoa, why?
Yes it is true and the reason is this. B&W consists of 256 shades of gray. From totaly black which is 0 to white which is 256.
If you have just one, two or three cartridges to make 256 different blacks and grays all the way to white, it simply isn't possibile.
The ony thing a printer can do is, amount of ink and how long. So it makes up for this by using all it's cartridges. However, in Canon it seems like the Pro-100 tints show up more than it should. There are dedicated B&W printers but they are designed differently to accomplish true B&W.
The tint will be different on different papers. You can experiment to find the paper that does best for you. Try a more gloss type paper and see if you like the B&W. You can try Red River papers, too. They will assist you in picking a good B&W paper.
You can also experiment with filters in PSE. Adding a little blue may help. Just give it a try.
But the bottom line is you are no doing anything wrong. It is just the charchter of the beast.

Why will my photos only print in black and white?

My computer crashed a while ago and I had to re-install my photoshop elements 6. Since then, photos will only print in black and white through elements, even though they'll print in colour through other programs on my computer. This must be a settings issue in the elements program but I can't find anything that seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi toxryan,
Thanks for taking the time to help. Issue definitely not resolved.
In Organiser there is no direct print link so I click on 'file' then 'print'. There are no relevant options in the print box - options only deal with type of printer, size of paper etc. If I try 'page setup' there are no relevant options. If I try 'more options' the only mention of colour is 'colour management' where it asks if I want print space same as the source etc.
This is driving me mad. Any ideas?
Thanks
Heather

Hey neil293,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, when you print a photo in iPhoto it has a tint. I would recommend that you read this article, this article explains how to adjust the tint in a photo.
