Exporting Raw to PS

Hi,
I've update both Apple & Adobe Photoshop CS2 support file on my iMac, and vertified that both Aperture & Photoshop reads my camera's raw files.
I'm importing all my pictures in Aperture, how do i export raw image to photoshop, when I Control-Click a picture in aperture and select Photoshop the image is transalated as '.psd'. The only way I can transfer raw image is export to desktop and then open the picture from photoshop.
I wanted to export raw to photoshop to edit it and get the final fixed version back in aperture, the way i used to do with '.jpg' files.
Thanks
Regards

I just use Export Master and then pop the raw file open in PS. I do no understand the need for an Automator-ized hot folder to do this for you.
Personal Workflow note: I have no need to bring the image back into Aperture. I don't use Aperture to track versions from external editors. I find this needlessly clutters Aperture and my Phtoshop versions are almost always job-specific. I keep them in a client-specific folder, not in Aperture. But that's just how we work at my shop.

  • Exported Raw Conversion Image Resolution and Assigning a Color Profile, etc

    In Aperture 1.1, although I set the exported Raw conversion image resolution to 300 dpi in the preferences, it continues to come out at 72 dpi which is something of an inconvenience. Also, is it possible to assign a color profile to the "exported version" so that it is congruent to my PS CS2 color workspace (if that is what its called). Is this program capable of carrying out a conversion as a background operation? Finally, can the layout windows be configured so that they remember how they have been used in the past? Thanks.

    Iatrogenic huh! Cool!
    Anyway, I'm not real clear on what it is you are trying to accomplish. Despite your obvious vocabulary skills, there seems to be some disconnect relative to what you are trying to accomplish. You are right that "exporting a version" in Aperture is roughly equivalent to what happens in ACR when you "Open" a RAW image into Photoshop. In both cases you have, hopefully, already done the adjusting of parameters you want prior to "exporting", or "opening". When you "open" or "export" you wind up with an "image" composed of pixels, whereas in the RAW adjustment phase you are just working with a temporary thumbnail and a set of mathematical instructions. Big difference, I suppose is that when you "open" and image from ACR into CS2, the resulting image is truly just pixels and has not had a "file type" applied to the file yet, until you "save" it, while in Aperture, if you "export" a file to CS2, or to the desktop, you end up with the file type already applied. Presuming you "export" a 16 bit TIFF or PSD, there is no operational difference.
    I could be wrong, but with the new Bayer Demosaicing algorithms in Aperture 1.1, and the Camera RAW adjustments, you should be able to come up with an adjusted image that is VERY close if not identical to one done in ACR, with the possible exception of lens abberation adjustment. I was very critical of the RAW adjustments in 1.0.1, but I am very happy with the capabilites in 1.1. That said, I think there is still some room for improvement in user friendliness of some of the adjustments such as Levels.

  • Export raw excel dato to fill-able PDF

    Hi Guys
    Im new to the forum and this is my first thread - I really hope you can help me (sorry for my english, its been a while since i've been using it).
    I would like to be able to export raw data from Excel to a PDF file, which is fill-able / editable.
    1) Lets say that my Excel file looks as follows:
    A1     =     Title of project
    A2     =     Adobe Acrobat project
    A3     =     Adobe Reader project
    A4     =     Adobe Photoshop project
    B1     =     Idea behind the project
    B2     =     The idea behind the project is to analyse, if Adobe Acrobat is a useable program.
    B3     =     etc.
    B4     =     etc.
    2) And I have a .PDF file thats like this:
    Text "Title of project:" And a textbox which can be filled out (the fill-able box is called "Title of project" in preferences)
    Text "Idea behind the project" And a textbox which can be filled out (the fill-able box is called "Idea behind the project" in preferences)
    3) How can I get the data from A2 into the .PDF files "Title of project" and the data from B2 into the .PDF files "Idea behind the project"
    I have tried to save the Excel file as .CSV and .TXT and import it into the .PDF, but get an error doing so.
    I just need the basic understanding, so I can start develooment from there.

    Have you read the documentation on importing/exporting text to and from a PDF?
    You need to arrange the data like a database table. The top row is the column name and corresponds to the Acrobat field name, then the next line is the first line of data and each following line is the next data record.

  • How do I Export Raw images from Iphoto to Adobe Photo Elements 4

    I recently purchased Photo elements 4 because I could import images from Iphoto in Raw format and work with them. Everything I have read and the instructional video sent to me by Adobe make it look and sound very easy but so far I have had no success.
    I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4. However I can not find my Raw images. What am I doing wrong or failing to do and is there some logical sequence that I have to follow to import Raw images.
    I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
    Thanks for any help you can provide

    dakota8,
    iPhoto and Adobe Bridge are incompatible, so you need to decide which one you want to use (for which photos). iPhoto is a database, with many flexible features for organizing your library and finding your photos. Bridge is a file browser with some organizing capabilities. You absolutely should not use Bridge or any other application (Finder included) to browse the files inside your iPhoto Library folder, as it will damage the iPhoto database. To verify, click on iPhoto's Help and read the section "About using the iPhoto Library."
    If you want to keep your RAW files in iPhoto, then you'll need to open them from iPhoto. As Dave E said, this can be done by setting the iPhoto pref to export RAW files. You also need to set PE 4 as the external editor in iPhoto's preferences. With this setup, you can select photos using iPhoto, open the RAW files into PE 4, then edit. Now comes the wrinkle in the workflow. Normally, you would do a Save to cause your edited file to be saved back into the iPhoto library. This Save, not Save As, requires that the filename and extension stay the same. Works great with jpeg files. However, once you edit the RAW, the extension (and file format) must change. Save will not work, because any save at this point is treated like a Save As. So you have to Save As to a folder OUTside of your iPhoto Library, and then import it in as a new file. There will be no link between the edited version and its unedited RAW file. You could organize inside iPhoto to display the edited file beside its original RAW, or keep separate rolls for the originals and edits.
    With that in mind, you might not want to save the RAW files in iPhoto at all. You could create your own filing system for them, which you would browse using Bridge. Upload using Image Capture to save your files to a folder of your choice. Once you edit the RAW files and save as another format, you could them import into iPhoto for cataloging or further editing. You'll just have to find the system that works best for you.
    BTW, don't save your edited RAW files as Adobe RAW. I tried and discovered that iPhoto refuses to import them at all.
    I have been able to open Bridge and view photos from Iphoto so it seems to me that everything that I have in Iphoto is automatically transfered to Elements 4.
    There's no transferring involved at all. Bridge is rooting directly inside the iPhoto Library folder. Did I mention that it's best to avoid this?
    However I can not find my Raw images.
    When you import a file it is saved into the Originals folder. Your RAW files are there, along with any video clips you may have imported.
    iPhoto automatically creates a jpeg version of your RAW files and stores it in the Modified folder. It has to do this in order to display the picture on your screen. With video clips, a jpeg of the first frame is created for display purposes.
    I am using a Nikon D200 and just to be safe I have been shooting so the images are saved both in JPEG and RAW.
    If you import both versions into iPhoto, then you have
    Originals - RAW
    Modified - jpeg
    Originals - jpeg
    (Modified - jpeg - if you edit the jpeg version or if they are auto-rotated to portrait orientation)
    I don't shoot in RAW, so I can't really comment about which workflow would be the most efficient. I just played with it long enough to realize that there is no easy way to do it.
    Regards.

  • Trying to export RAW originals from Aperature 3 to LightRoom 4: I choose File Export Originals. I think then Pictures LR. But then I can't find files in LR library.Files seem stuck in Pictures as NEF

    Trying to export RAW originals from Aperature 3 to LightRoom 4: I choose File>Export>Originals. Then Pictures>LR. But then I can't find files in LR library.Files seem stuck in Pictures as NEF and or DNG files. I know Im stuck on something dumb but I am stuck. Help?

    You now need to import those files into Lightroom.
    BTW, Lightroom uses a "referenced" system so your images will always be in the folders you download/copy them to. Lightroom is a database first and foremost, albeit with non-destructive editing capabilities (effectively Adobe Camera Raw).

  • Another way of exporting Raw files directly to ACR

    Hello,
    I just stumbled on this workaround for Aperture´s failure to export RAW-files directly to Adobe Camera Raw converter.
    I use iView Mediapro to keep my digital files archived. iView is able to catalogue every photograph of my Aperture library. In fact apertures library shows up in iView as a folder called "Aperture Library.aplibrary". All images apear in iView´s browser. I can now select any RAW file and right click to choose an application to open it. I choose ACR and it opens like a breese.

  • Export RAW files from iPad to NAS

    Hello everyone,
    I've been a while wondering if it is possible to quit personal computers for my Photo Workflow, that involves RAW file formats. The ideal workflow should be like this:
    Take a photo in RAW+JPEG.
    Import the photo in an iPad Air 2 with iOS 8 via SD Card Adapter.
    Work with the image with the existing RAW editing apps, Like Photogene 4 or SnapSeed.
    Save the original RAW and edited stuff in a Synology NAS.
    The problem is the fourth step. It's impossible for me to extract them intact from iPad to NAS. I had recently a false positive when I found FileBrowser, which is a Finder-like app that let's you take RAWs from an album and copy to a network storage. BUT surprise! The filesize of that files is EXACTLY the same of the JPGs, around 2,5 MB, so these .CR2 files have been altered.
    ¿Is there some way to export RAW files from an iPad?

    The following claims to transfer RAW. Not sure that it will work in the circumstance you describe but may be something to check out: http://www.photosync-app.com/photosync/en/features.html#cluster_1

  • I am having trouble exporting .raw files to an external storage device.  Even though I export "original" they end up as jpeg files.  Any idea what I am doing wrong?

    I am having trouble exporting .raw files from my Mac Book Air to an external storage device.  Even though I am exporting as "original" they are being exported as jpegs.  Anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?

    Using the "original" setting is the correct way to do it.  Select on of the photos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option.  That will take you to the file inside the library via the Finder.  Confirm that what you see if the raw file.
    If it is then try the following:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • Exporting RAW files to PS5 from Lightroom

    when exporting RAW files from lightroom 3, version 3.6, to photoshop 5, (version 12.04, ACR 6.6), raw files go directly to editor, not camera raw editor. This began only after I went from trial version to full version, before it went to RAW editor.  If loading directly into PS RAW files do go to RAW editor as they should, but not from LIghtroom.
    Please advise

    The way it is working now is the way it is supposed to.  I don't know why ACR was opening before.  You do your adjustments in Lightroom, and when you send the image to Photoshop ACR is used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments.  If you want to be able to go back to ACR then you need to open the image as a smart object.

  • Option-drag to export RAW files

    Option dragging files to a folder to export RAW files out of iPhoto, pretty standard thing, I've done it for years.
    All of a sudden today it's not working. Cursor shows a white circle slash instead of the green + when I try to drag the files out. It will let me do it without the option key, but that's only for jpg. I need the RAW files out of iPhoto!
    Why?
    Help!

    Rebooting the computer fixed it.

  • Exporting RAW files to desktop corrupts them

    I just purchased a new macmini intel 2 core duo 2 gHZ upgraded to 2 GB Ram and I run Leopard 10.5.7 with iPhoto 09
    The store where I purchased my macmini transferred all the contents from my old macmini core 2 duo 1.83 gHZ hard disc to my new macmini's hard disc.
    Here's the problem: When I export a RAW file from iPhoto to my desktop ( export as "Original") the RAW file is often corrupted by a horizontal band or stripe of color across the image. The strange thing is that it does not have this stripe or band across it every time. It does this about half the time. I experimented by exporting the same RAW file to my desktop a few times. In about 2 cases out of 5 the exported RAW file displays the colored stripe or band. If I export as Jpeg or Tiff it does not happen.
    The band is always in a different place. Here are 2 screenshots I took of what it looks like:

    OK..I contacted Apple Support here i Holland by phone and they ran through a whole trouble shooting program with me. Then they downloaded RAW files from a site that has RAW files for all types of cameras including the camera I use Panasonic DMC L1
    They then did imported the RAW files into their Macmini at Apple support and found that they experience the exact same issues as I reported on my own Macmini. So the problem is not with my particular Macmini but somewhere in the iPhoto 09 software. They will now send these findings to Apple in Ireland and other Apple centres that address these issues. Then a solution will be sought and probably some kind of update to correct it will be issued. Hopefully this issue will be gone in SnowLeopard.

  • Images once exported (RAW) do not show up in catalog or previous imorts not film strips in library nor develop.  They are in the files to which they were exported

    Not sure how to get this going seems rather redundant.
    In the last 4 - 5 days I have imported several hundred RAW files, done some minimal post processing and exported these images to various files (I have verified that the images are in the files to which I exported them).  These images to no show up in previous imports nor do they show up in library nor develop film strips.  How or can I get them to show up for additional review and possible manipulation.  I recently did this same operation with largle JPEG files and all went well.
         I did initially have some problems with LR recognizing the RAW files but some how was able to overcome that ( perhaps a card  issue they are old card and the JPEGs were on a new card hmmmm!!??)
         Any ways I supposed I can reimport them from their current files but that is a redundant pain.  Suggestions would be apprediated

    One possibility is that you accidentally opened a new/different catalog.
    Look at File->Open Recent and open the catalogs shown there and see if your photos appear

  • Can I build a interactive log-in form with Edge and Export Raw code to edit?

    Hey Everyone,
    I love adobe edge, but I'm still getting used to it. It's very easy to use, but I ran into an issue. I am redesigning a webpage for a client and need to build a log-in page and re-design the site. The site is a Dashboard that will be on an ipad and computer. What I need to do is take my design and design a template for them to use. They require HTML4 and up with some coding (not a fan of coding, I am strictly a designer, and before you guys critize about why I took the job when I don't know coding, it's a side project they are having me do for them while the main design project is being evaluated and I'm on contract so I don't have a choice, still would like to learn how to achieve what I need) but I still want to maintain the animation I have planned for the log in, very simple nothing special. Basically what I want is when you log in and click in the "text" box the background image will go from the clear image to the blur image.
    What I've done so far,
    I built the log-in page as a test to see if it would work (didn't take long since I saved as a PSD and imporated the files). I've attached an imagw to show a visual of what I am trying to do. The animation works fgreat for what i need, but now I want the box I click in to be writtable inside and work with the animation. I can't seem to figure out how to make the box's I created typable to type in for a "Username" and "Password" in other word interative. I used the boxes provided in edge because they are HTML boxes, but I want them to become text boxes to enter the Username and Password (It doesn't have to be perfect just enough for me to type in to pass off to the programmers). I know you can make edge interative with muse and what not and I was hoping to achieve what I want for them so I can export it and pass it off to the programmers. Is there a way to add this in Edge? If not, I know you can export to Dreamweaver and  when I import the file to Dreamweaver I just see a grey box with the file I created (.oma I think) from Edge but not the content unless I "Preview it" in a browser.
    So is there a way to build what I want in edge without resorting to dreamweaver? If so and there is code to input can you guys provide step by step on how to put it in the program? And is there a way to export the project so I can pass the RAW code to the programmers to do there thing? Lastly, is there a way to incorporate Jquery mobile to Edge? For the Dashboard can I build the same thing in Edge? Example what will be in there are things like charts, Calendars, Dates, Etc, Etc.  If I need to resort to building it in dreamweaver I can provide the code for you guys to alter to change for what I need. Like I said I'm not a big fan of coding and a little stranger to it. I just know the basics and the fact I haven't touched dreamweaver since CS4 makes it even harder to use. Some tools I like are gone such as AP divs. However i like the new elements you can inject into the program such as the Jquery stuff, but for the simplist things I want to do such as moving them left or right or centering them is a different story.
    Please Help!
    Thanks!

  • Lightroom 5.6 Export RAW to Resized JPEG Producing Poor Quality Images

    I have the latest Lightroom 5.6 and am running into a problem that I never had EVER and I've been using the same workflow since LR1. I shoot in RAW and want to send my client JPEG proofs (resized to 1000px, 100% quality, and 96dpi, sRGB). I use the export feature and have tried everything, even saving the resized image at 300dpi but the export results are still absolutely horrible. The photo is muddled and blurry no matter what I try. This is obviously not a color space issue, or monitor/browser issue and as I said before, I've done resizing through LR plenty of times without this much compression loss. Anyone else running into this? What's the solution?
    I took the same RAW file and exported to JPEG with resizing checked off and the image looked sharp as a tack like my RAW file in LR.
    So, there is obviously something wrong with LR RAW to JPEG export when resizing. Which has NEVER been an issue before.
    Adobe, seriously, get your S%&T together!

    Never seen anything like that before. I export with resizing all the time. As long as the quality is somewhat up from 80% (100% is complete overkill) and I do appropriate output sharpening, the quality is always superb. Of course there is only so much you can do with a 1000 pixels so don't expect to zoom endlessly in on that. The ppi does not matter at all when you specify a size in pixels. Can you post an example?
