Export panel bridge cs5 - image quality only to 10

Hi
Is anyone else having problems with the image quality settings in the image options.  It cannot seem to save the max setting of 12 it only save jpegs at 10.
Any suggestions,  Thanks Andy

I had the exact same issue - except mine is limiting it to a maximum of 8
The workaround I found is to build the export profile exactly as you would like it - and let it pick whatever number it wants (8 or 10) - ignore the words of Low/High/Maximum - those just correlate to the 8 or 10 (or 12)
12 is the true maximum for the JPG export and once you run it - there is a noticeable file size increase and the images are a higher quality.
Once you have the profile built, go into the folder "Export Presets"
Macintosh HD > Users > YourUsername > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Bridge CS5 > Export Presets
Open up the file that matches the same name as what you created inside bridge
The file will likely open as an .xml file inside dreamweaver (or another XML editor)
find the line:
       <imageQuality>8</imageQuality>
and set what the system set as an 8 (or a 10) to a 12
       <imageQuality>12</imageQuality>
save the file and run the export again.
You will have what were 2-4MB JPG files becoming 8-12MB files with a quality of 12/Maximum
Hope that helps

  • Problem with Exporting from Bridge CS5 to Social Media sites

    Hi Adobe users,
    I'm a new French user of CS5 Bridge. My question is :
    Is it possible for me to export pictures from Bridge to Social Media Sites like Facebook & Flickr ?
    This topic (http://www.tipsquirrel.com/exporting-from-bridge-cs5-to-social-media-sites/) introduce me to exporting files but I haven't got the modules who were necessary for exporting. After, I do a Check For Update, without results. So I have another question :
    What are the steps in order to have the necessary modules ?
    Thanks Julien BARREAU
    Sorry for my bad english.

    You can't. The export module (btw gone in Bridge CC) has never worked properly for all social media. The reason they gave was due to rights management in different countries. It only worked in a few countries for Facebook.

  • How to add a Description Column in the Content Panel (Bridge CS5)

    Hi,
    Is it possible to add a Description Column in the Content Panel. If so, how?
    I'm talking about the Description from the IPTC Core data and I'm using Bridge CS5.
    Thanks in advance,
    Frank

    This is the screenshot of the Metadata Workspace with the Content Panel (not Metadata Panel). As you can see it shows Name, Label, Keywords etc. but it's not possible to show Description in that list as a column.
    I still agree that it would be a big bonus if you could alter this workspace with description field (even with more lines etc) but what Curt shows you might be an alternative. I couldn't help noticing that you have not created your own custom workspaces.
    Try and play with this. You have the option to divide the window in 3 columns max but you can create different panels as a row in 1 column.
    Grabbing a tab and move it to a new location until a single blue line appears (between the borders, a bit tricky). A vertical blue line means as a column and a horizontal line means a row. A surrounding blue line means same panel but adding as a tab. You can rearrange the tabs by dragging to left or right. under the menu window you can select which panels are visible or use right mouse click menu on top of a panel to choose.
    Sadly enough only 3 columns and only one panel of it's kind per workspace, but you can resize the panels also to your own workflow needs.
    In Bridge preferences you can change the colors for background in the general tab and in the metadata tab you can select what info to view in certain sections. Personally I have set my IPTC to view only description, keywords, date created and a few other subjects.
    That is the nice thing about Bridge, creating custom workspaces, save them and being able to recreate them without problems :-)
    I attach some screenshot of my daily workflow (with the luxury of having a 30' screen) but there are plenty of other options possible, don't forget to name and save your workspace.

  • Bridge CS5: Images added to collection get removed from collection

    This is the first time I used non-smart collections. But, I'm sure that I'm quite sure that I'm not doing anything wrong.
    I simply dragged thumbnails into the collection from various folders and the collection shows all 20 images. Then, I close out Bridge and open it later, only to find that there are only 4 images in that collection. There may have been 4 images to start with, but every image I've added does not get remembered. This has happened twice and it's very unnerving because the images I am adding are coming from folders that are all over the place and it's very hard to look up all the pictures again.
    What's up with this?
    Thanks,
       Mike

    I've just noticed this problem, by chance, whilst moving data to a new computer.
    We found that files that were in collections were randomly missing from Bridge CS5's display, and sure enough, as described earlier, as soon as a file in the collection with a quote/spostrophe was read, that file and the rest of the collection were missing from Bridge CS5's display.
    (This was using Bridge 4.0.3.9. Adobe Application Manager tells me my software is uptodate)
    Because we had some backed up copies of Collections from both Bridge CS4 and Bridge CS5, I've been able to work a few things out, which I hope might help someone at Adobe get the problem fixed - and might help a few frustrated users too...
    Background
    The following entirely applies to Windows 7 (and presumably Windows Vista too):
    In Bridge CS4, collections files are stored in:
    C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS4\Collections
    In Bridge CS5, collections files are stored in:
    C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS5\Collections
    Both CS4 and CS5 store their Collections in files called <collection name>.filelist
    Both are XML files, where file paths are surrounded by apostrophes:
    For example:
    <file uri='bridge:fs:file:///D:/Shared%20Images/Flowers/RHS/DSC_0788.jpg'>
    Both Bridge CS4 and CS5 convert any spaces in file paths to %20 - so /Shared%20Images/ above is actually /Shared Images/ on disk.
    The cause of the bug
    Crucially, however, in Bridge CS4, any apostrophes (i.e. single quotes) in file paths get converted to %27
    But this conversion does not happen in Bridge CS5. And then when filelists get read back in, the data is truncated.
    As a developer, I'm surprised at this sort of regression in behaviour, in such expensive software from such a large company.
    Workarounds
    None of these should be required to be done by a user, I feel, but I have found that they do work, and they could be scripted (e.g. in Python) if someone were sufficiently desparate:
    Edit your .filelist files that were created by Bridge CS5, and convert all ' in file paths to %27 - oh yes, and remember to do that every time you add any new files to any existing or new Collections
    Edit your .filelist files and change the single quotes at the start and end of each <file uri line to double quotes
    I don't regard "remove quotes from your file names" as an acceptable workaround, however. We've got nearly 400GB of files, going back more than 10 years, and various of these are referred to from other locations, e.g. InDesign publications: if we were to rename locations for the benefit of Bridge, we'd break other stuff on the PC.

  • Can i with a script force bridge cs5 to show only raw files?

    Hi
    i know there is the filter feature
    but i have every time to set to show me the raw files
    can a script show only raw files ? like *.cr2
    in short i work only with raw files
    i would like to have a solution to display only raw files
    to load with bridge and have bridge ready to show only raw files
    set it on the filter feature is boring ,seeing i use it a lot and every time i run bridge i have to set the filter every time
    thanks

    It appears that with the Sort function set to Flie Type you can bring up just the raw
    files as a group.  With the Filter it appears that it always opens up in the default mode to arrange by file name.
    You could get a script to change it to file type, but that does not save any effort over just clicking on it in the Filter section.  Whether or not you can get a script to change the defalult I would ask in the Bridge scripting forum.  http://forums.adobe.com/community/bridge/bridge_scripting

  • Bridge CS5 Output Module only uses first 20 images and ignores the rest

    This happens with all the different styles, both PDF and Web.  Even though more than 20 images are selected, only 20 show up both in the preview and in the final PDF or web page.  It just started happening.

    It just started happening.
    This always means First Aid for Bridge, that is first to purge cache for
    folder using the menu tools/cache/purge cache for folder while having the
    content window pointed to the folder the problem occurs.
    Second option is renew preferences by holding down option key while
    restarting bridge and choose refresh preferences. Try again and if OK set
    prefs again to your wishes to see if it still works.

  • LR 3.6 Export to Photoshop CS5 - Images have massive problems.

    Windows 7 x64
    Lightroom 3.6
    Photoshop CS5
    When I use the Export to Photoshop feature (or if I export to PSD or export to TIFF and then open in Photoshop), the images look like this:
    When the original in Lighroom looks like this:
    If I zoom in to 100% the weird artifacting/tearing goes away, but if I zoom out any more than 66%, it gets these weird malformations on the image. I cannot figure out why. It's not the image size since I've worked with 100+ meg PSD files in Photoshop before without this issue. If I export to JPG from LR and then open in Photoshop, it's fine. It just happens with TIFF or PSD. Driving me nuts.
    Anybody have any idea why?
    Thank you all so much.

    That's a typical video card driver problem affecting Photoshop. Update the driver from the manufacturer's site (NVidia or ATI).

  • CS5: Image appears only at 25% and 100% magnification

    Been running PS CS5 successfully for a couple of years, then all of a sudden I can't work at magnifications other than 25% and Actual Pixels. The image disappears and I only see the checkerboard. There was a Windows update I ran on April 10 that included an update to the graphics card, which I thought might have been the culprit, so I uninstalled it. That didn't fix the problem, so I updated it again. I couldn't see anything else in those updates that should affect Photoshop.
    Here is what I've tried so far:
    I updated my graphics driver (NVidia GeForce),
    Trashed Adobe Photoshop CS5 Prefs.psp (which crashed PS completely when I reopened it...luckily I kept the old prefs file on my desktop and dragged it back in),
    Made sure Photoshop was up-to-date.
    Any ideas what to try next?
    Thanks!

    Hi Chris,
    I KNEW it had something to do with the graphics card. I turned off GL drawing in the preferences, and it works perfectly now. Thanks for your help.

  • Export in Bridge CS5

    Up until I installed Lion, the export feature in Bridge worked fine.  But now if I attempt to use it, it crashes Bridge.  I've done all updates, reset Bridge, & repaired permissions.  Any suggestions on what else to do to make the export feature work?
    Thanks,
    Sue

    Bridge crashes every time I try to Browse to select a folder for the output of the Export module. I am running the latest Lion on Mac.

  • IPTC Extension fields do not appear in the Metadata panel (Bridge CS5)

    I can see and edit them from the file info (cmd-I) but I cannot get them to show up in Metadata panel. They are listed as a set and individually in the Metadata preferences but no amount of enabling/disabling with or without restarting Bridge will coax them to appear. This is a little disappointing as they are all available in the Lightroom 3 metadata panel.
    Is this a known problem/feature/bug????
    tks, louie

    I heard on another forum that it is just a mater of time before this is fixed.
    Times seems to fix everything. However the big question is: will you still
    be around when the result is there...

  • Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5

    Image Processor does not start through Bridge CS5, it starts only PS and nothing happen. I do not know, how to repair it.

    Most likely you do not have the startup files checked.
    In Bridge go to edit/preferences/startup scripts.  Make sure you have a check mark for Bridge and Photoshop.  Without that they can't talk to each other.

  • Poor image quality on exported version

    I am trying to export versions of my photos to a folder on my external drive. Every time I do this the resulting jpg is washed out and has poor resolution + a ton of noise. The resulting image is substantially lighter than the images in my aperture window, yet the histogram does not indicate that the images should be that light or washed out.
    The images are all starting as RAW images. The export settings are for image quality 12, 300 dpi, sRGB, original jpg. I have onscreen proofing turned on and set to sRGB. My print lab said that the image quality could be 10, but when they looked so horrible I bumped them up.
    I had Aperture for a long time before upgrading to Aperture 2 in March. From March to August I did not have any problems, so this is a more recent problem. I have not yet upgraded to Snow Leopard. Please help!!! Thanks!!!

    Hi
    a. make a DiskImage first and test this with Apple DVD-player.
    (File menu and down "Make a DiskImage")
    b. I only use streamingDV - no .m4v or like (may be it works - I don't know)

    *Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
    iDVD pref file resides. Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named.
    com.apple.iDVD.plist
    While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iDVD.
    • Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
    • Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
    • Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
    iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
    Last resort. from Craig. Solved the problem!! Finally!!
    I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
    emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
    and I am up and running.
    If You do a re-install be sure to get rid of all iDVD old parts AND then EMPTY the Trash-basket !

  • Does Export Version reduces image quality?

    Hi,
    I got smaller file size when I "export version" at "original size". My master was jpeg of 5.1MB and I exported in jpeg format, I got 3.6MB. If I "export master", I do get 5.1MB. What does Aperture do to the jpeg image that reduces the file size?
    Then I played around with "image quality", which is 10 by default. If I set it to 11, I got a file of 4.1 MB, still smaller than the original 5.1MB. Set it to 12 I got a file of 10.4MB. I am kind of confused. I guess the "image quality" relates to degree of jpeg compression, and a 12 setting means that Aperture compresses the jpeg image at a lower compression ratio than my camera? Does Aperture uncompress jpeg image and re-compress it when "export version"?
    The bottom line is, how do I preserve image quality after adjustments? In other words, I would like to export at the same image quality as my original photo, or as close as possible (I assume Aperture reduces jpeg image quality a bit every time I apply adjustments to the image via export). Thanks much for your time.

    2) When I make adjustments in Aperture I actually work on the image Aperture produces out of the master file - which should be about 73MB in my computer memory as the size of the image is 2848 x 4272 and Aperture works in 16 bit.
    Internally, Core Image (which Aperture uses) actually works in 32-bit, but your basic idea is right.
    3) When I export, Apertures compresses this 73MB image (assume adjustments don't make much difference to the image size) to a jpeg file.
    First the image will be reduced to the bit depth of your export preset. Image adjustments will make quite a difference to the final file size because areas of high definition detail and a large tonal range will both increase the file size for a given compression setting. So any sharpening, for example, will increase the file size.
    As a test, export an image with no sharpening applied, then add some edge sharpening and export it again. You should see a noticeable difference in file sizes.
    Correct?
    Pretty much.

  • Poor image quality when displaying OLE Word object in PDF

  • Cannot deinstall ps cs4 and bridge cs5 open all files in CS4 instead of Cs5

    I temporarily could not make the Eastman Kodak ROC Professional plug-in work in my PS CS5 so I tried other programs to use this plug-in in. I therefore installed an old PS Elements 5 and PS CS4 (my present PS CS5 is bougth as an update from CS4) . However now the plug-in works fine in my PS CS5 and I of course prefer to work in this. I have, however,  acquired a new problem: The only way I can open picture files in PS CS5 is via the files menu in Photoshop itself. If I try to open via Bridge (and it is Bridge CS5) I can only open the files in PS CS4.  I cannot deinstall PS CS4. Bridge CS5 states that "open in PS CS4 is the default action".
    Sorry if this is a foolish question.
    Git Amager1

    Sorry not to have reacted to the above for so long. Even after doing as you proposed things did not work. In the end I (after the Christmas Holidays) I did reinstall the pc - changed from Vista to windows 7. I do not know what caused the problem initially but at least I think I can conclude that one should not install the cs4 software after having installed cs5. Thank you for your support.
