Elements 8 sav for web advice

Hey folks!!
When you are using PS Elements 8 and use the save for web feature it always starts off as GIF. I want it to be set for JPEG when I open this feature to make things quicker. Any ideas on how to make it default to JEPG?

The following should help.

Does photoshop elements enable save for web for a batch of photos?

does photoshop elements enable save for web or ready for web for a batch of photos ?

Hi Patonabike,
You can batch save images as jpeg, png, tiff etc. using Process Multiple Files. This feature will even allow you to batch resize them (as long as they are the same orientation and aspect ratio). However, the resulting images may be larger than what you would get if you individually did 'Save for Web' because 'Save for Web' removes the photo's exif data (and Process Multiple Files won't).
With that said, it depends how you are editing your images and the results you are looking for, if you just want to rescale them or batch edit them - this is one way.
Hope it helps!

Elements 10 - "Save for Web" function not working.

No response when clicked. Menu closes. That's all. As far as I know, everything else is fine. Using Win7-Home Prem.

Ken --
First of all thank you for taking an interest in this problem.
Honestly, I'm not sure if it ever worked. I've used the function but I'm not sure if the last time I used it I was using Elements 8 or Elements 10. Sorry.
Yes, I have installed additional plug-ins and filters a few of which I found on the internet. Are there any that you know of that could cause Save for Web to stop? I'm guessing yes or you wouldn't have asked.
The file you asked about is there in the folder specified.

Exactly What Optimizations Does "Save for Web" Perform?

Hello all!
In Photoshop Elements 5.0, Save for Web works very well for me. I'll likely just use Save for Web most of the time, but occasionally I want to perform only some of the web optimizations on a particular image. I'd like to know how to perform some or all of the same optimizations manually.
Can anyone tell me what steps to take in the Editor (resizing, dpi changes, etc.) manually to mimic the Save for Web function? Or point me to some documentation that explains exactly what Save for Web does to an image?

Here's the help section on the subject for E6...should be the same. It should be exactly the same in E5...actually probably no difference in any of the versions.

Here's a video on using Save for Web.
http://www.photoshopsupport.com/elements/tt/save-for-web.html
If you want to do resizing manually, Image<Resize<Image Size. Here you can set the image's size and resolution and set if you want the image to be resampled or not.
The compression would be done in the file<Save step.
If you save as a jpg, you can set image quality. Notice that below the preview check box the file size for the current setting is displayed. You can also do a visual check of the before and after image by checking and unchecking the Preview box.
Save As...for other file types display dialogs that apply to that image type.
Here's a link about using Image size dialog if you want to get into specifics and the math.

There should also be an option in the Organizer for emailing images. Never used it myself by it's over there somewhere...

Colour issue with 'Save for Web' - Photoshop Elements 6 (Mac)

Cross posted here, but no answer so far. Sorry for cross posting. For me, this is urgent, but I know it's not for anyone else, so apologies for putting 'urgent'.
http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/images-graphic-design-digital-photography/150670-colour-i ssue-save-web-photoshop-elements-6-a.html#post840419
This is a similar issue to this:
Save for web color issue
Except the user who posted the above was using photoshop cs3, and I'm using Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.
When I work on a photo, I get it just right, then go to Save for Web, and the original it previews is loads lighter than the orginal I was working on in the first place. See 'Picture 1' attachment.
I have changed the colour settings on the Save for Web options - I've chosen each one in turn, and none fix the problem.
There seems to be no similar option in PSE6 to this that fixed it in CS3:
IN the save for web box there is a small round button with an arrow in it (near the Done button).
In the list when this button is pressed deselect Convert to sRGB
I used to use PSE2 on a PC, and never had this problem. I didn't need to mess about with colour profiles or anything similar on the PC. The original was the original, not a washed out version of the original. Why spend ages getting the file just right, only for Save for Web to screw it up?
Any advice to fix this would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks very much for your reply.
I've uploaded the images here:
http://jimpix.co.uk/images/Picture 1.jpg
http://jimpix.co.uk/images/Picture 2.png
I deleted the prefs. file you suggested, and then opened PSE6.
I then tried the profile setting you suggested - but it's not an option:
http://jimpix.co.uk/images/Picture 3.png
I tried 'remove profile' just in case that worked, but the same effect happens on Save for Web.
Not sure what to try next!
Thanks

Save for Web does not open dialog box in PS Elements 8 for Mac

After opening an image and selecting Save for Web, the Save for Web dialog box fails to appear. I've seen similar reports for PS Elements 6 for Mac, but did not find the same files in those directories. Running iMac with OS 10.6.

There are many things that only work in an admin account, but if you're willing to take the trouble, you can change the permissions to allow them to work in a standard account. See:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/362899
Note that it's pretty important to run Save for Web one time in the admin account after changing the permissions or it still won't work in the standard account.

Save for Web :: some elements are missing

Hello,
This is just to report a problem with "Save for Web" option. I have a logotype opened in illustrator, when "save for web" option and saving as PNG. Some of the elements in the illustrator file are missing. Here are a few screenshots to see what I'm talking about. Hope this helps to figure out what is going on.
Thanks

Illustrator File. Vector logotype
Wire frame to see that everything is vectors.
Saving for web as PNG. You'll notice the three bars on top are missing.
Saving for web as JPG. Same thing is happening. The three bars on top are missing even though is on the illustrator file.
Let me know if you need something from me to correct this prob.

Got it. Found it and yes, for some reason this was set to overprint.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 2 and 'Save for Web' problem

Hi everyone,
I have used Photoshop Elements 2 for some time with absolutely no problems. However when I try to use the save for the web option I get an 'export could not be completed due to a program error' message.
Nothing relevant is mentioned on Adobe's support site. After having gone through the usual 9 troubleshooting procedure I suspect that there is a problem with the 'Save for Web EL' plugin located in the PE 2 plugins folder. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way I can somehow find a functional plugin?
Thank you for reading this post.

I don't use Photoshop elements myself, but from Photoshop CS it works fine. I use JPG compression and optimization. First of all - make sure the file format extensions are all available. Applications/adobe/photoshop elements/file formats AND ALSO Applications/adobe/photoshop elements/photoshop elements only/file formats (here I am assuming the paths are the same or similar to Photoshop). Also, check the extensions disabled folder (Control click on Photoshop and go to package contents). If it's none of these, I suggest you check the settings in Elements when trying to save and make sure you are not using an option that conflicts.
Also, check the Adobe forum. http://www.adobeforums.com
Check for software upgrades also.
You do have enough hard drive space and RAM I assume. If you are using PS Elements and virtual memory is on, you may not have enough phsyical space to save the file (but not likely)
P.S. I see (after i wrote) that you are running 9.2.2 - so the paths will not be the same as if it was on OS X - but they will be similar.

How to "save for web" via batch processing in Photoshop elements

I have a bunch of logos that need to be resized and 'save for web." How can I process these files as a batch in Photoshop elements. Many thanks!

You can batch save them as jpgs, gifs, or PNGs using Process Multiple Files, and even batch resize them as long as they are all in the same orientation and the same aspect ratio (shape), but the resulting files will be somewhat larger than you'd get with Save for Web because Save for Web removes the photos' exif data, which PMF won't. Since these are logos, there shouldn't be much difference.

Save for Web crashing Photoshop Elements 11!

I am trying to get some images ready for my work who is developing an app. I am trying to save the images and pages for web 'Save for Web', however whenever I click save it crashing the entire programme. Has anyone else had this or does anyone know how to solve it?

sbkay,
Is Organizer crashing for you with every launch?
Can you try these workarounds:
1. Delete the Organizer preferences from:
On MAC: //Users/[Your User Account]/Library/Preferences/. Delete the file “com.Adobe.Elements Organizer.11.0.plist” from this location.
On Win: Type %appdata% in Start>Run. Traverse to \Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\11.0\Organizer(on Win 7). Rename psa.prf file.
Re-launch the Organizer.
2. If your catalog is not a new fresh catalog, it might be because of some issues in that. While launching Organizer, Press the Shift key. This will open Catalog manager dialog. Select your catalog and go for provided options for "Repair" and "Optimize".
Let me know if none of these work out for you.
Regards,

PS Elements 10 - MAC "Save for web" broken?

Just updated to PS Elements 10... now find that "save for web" will start with the usual question confirming I want to save for web, but then the panel does not open. Nothing happens.

Elements "save for web" use "Maximum" quality as default?

It drives me nuts that I always have to select maximum when saving for web with photoshop elements, is there a way to set this preference so that it is always saving at maximum quality when I use save for web?

Micah,
You missed this admonishment on the same page you added this topic:
Note: please do not post Photoshop
Elements questions here. Thanks!
No one uses Elements here. :/

"Save For Web" crashes PS Elements

"Save For Web" does not function on Photoshop Elements. It's shocking that such a basic thing as this crashes the software!!
My whole reason for buying PS Elements was for Web design. Now I have $100 worth of software that is no use to me whatsoever.
There have been no updates to PS Elements in the month+ since I downloaded this software from the Apple App Store.

Well, just FYI there are never any updates to the app store version, so you should keep that in mind. You're stuck with an older version of ACR, for example, that you can't update. Adobe so far has never bothered to release any update for the app store versions, probably because apple's rules mean they'd need to to do a complete new version of PSE--they aren't allowed to sell a version that updates directly from adobe the way the other versions do.
Now, as for your Save for Web problem. First go to the preferences>general and click this button, then restart PSE:
If that doesn't do it, go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe camera raw 7.0 prefs
Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 settings
That library is hidden in 10.7 and 10.8. To see it, option-click the Go menu in the Finder and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there, in 10.7 or 10.8, go to the Saved Application States and delete any for PSE.
Repair permissions and try again.
