Extracting Colour Areas from Image

I have an image which has a color tone,which I want to remove, the highlights in the image but also find a identical larger image with the same color tone I What can I do. I've been thinking of many options, one option was to enlarge the image then clone paint it onto a flat surface so I could get most if not all of the color combinations which is my main goal.

" Create a color swatch and build up using the color swatch as close as I can in hopes that it works."
Build up what exactly? you never explained what you are trying to do with the colors.
(And I noticed on the Illustrator forum that other members have an hard time to understand exactly what you are after... Please help us help you! If you do not describe with words easily enough, please post a drawing/sketch of what you are after...)
Otherwise, open the other document next to the muscles one, get the brush tool or the paint bucket tool, ALT+Click on one color you want to sample inthe muscle one, then paint of fill the area you want to color in the second document with that color, and repeat for each color that you want to use.
Once a color is sampled, you can also save it to your swatches panel, if you right-click an empty area in the panel.
I used the patch tool for my example, but you could use most other correction tools. Or smart fill (select the highlight a bit loosely, then press the backspace key.)

Oracle UCM - Extract IPTC data from images

Good Day,
I'm hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I'm trying to extract IPTC data from images originating in lightroom and map that data into custom metadata fields on check in. I've installed content categorizer but it doesn't seem to grab the IPTC data. I sure hope someone out there will be able to lend me a hand.
Many thanks in advance.
Shawn

Having '@' and '*' characters in the data will not make any difference if you are using a combined column separator of '|@|' - provided any process you use subsequently can handle it.
However, the recsepchar parameter appears to be restricted to a single character which is repeated right across the page, so I don't think you could have a single iteration of '|*|' using this method:
SQL> set newpage 0 space 0 pagesize 0 feed off head off trimspool on
SQL> set recsep EACH
SQL> set recsepchar '*'
SQL> set colsep '|@|'
SQL> select * from testa;
A         |@|1@        |@|22-JUN-2010
B         |@|2*        |@|22-JUN-2010

How to extract the number from image using java

Hello every one
i want to develope a project which can extract the number from image
that i can use as inter or String or char.
Is there any API in java which provide this type of facility.
right now i m using java 5
thanks in Advance
Jignesh

In my project i have a image in that i have a
co-ordinate (x,y) I am still puzzled as to what you seek. It sounds to me like you have a point (x, y) represented by p. in java it's just p.getX() p.getY()
i want to convert that cordinate to numeric form,
i mena i want to use that cordinate in somewhere else
in project.point.getX() point.getY()
So need to convert it into numeric form u can called
it OCR also.OCR is optical character recognition. If I want out and took a picture of the US Declaration of Independence and then wanted the words on the parchement in the picture in text form, then I would run the picture through a software program and it would try to optically recognise what lettering and number were present in the picture. In the end, I would have a text of what is written on the US Declaration of Independence.
Is that what you want?

Printing transparent images over vector colour areas from illustrator

I have tried everything! I am placing photoshop images which have a transparent areas on top of flat green colour in illustrator. The problem is when I print the illustrator file the green is darker where the transparent area from the photoshop images overlap the green. Can anyone help?

This is aimed at InDesign but it sounds like it applies to your problem:

Batch extract file resolution from image xmp file

Hi all,<br />I am looking for a batch process that extracts the X & Y pixel dimensions for a bunch of TIFF files.<br />I find the data in the XMP file when I save out the file:<br /><rdf:Description rdf:about=''<br /> xmlns:tiff='http://ns.adobe.com/tiff/1.0/'><br /> <tiff:XResolution>3000000/10000</tiff:XResolution><br /> <tiff:YResolution>3000000/10000</tiff:YResolution><br /> <tiff:ResolutionUnit>2</tiff:ResolutionUnit><br /> </rdf:Description><br /><br />I do not know if I need to start with the XMP file or if I can start with the source TIFF file.<br />Ultimately I would like to save the dimensions to a database.<br />Any help would be great

It looks like every time I capture an image of a vm, a snapshot is taken of each disk and then a vhd object is also created. So can I convert the vhd's to a disk without going through the create-a-vm-from-image process? Going even further, if I just took
snapshots of my vm's, can I turn those snapshots directly into disks?

Extract vhd / disk from image?

Is there a way to extract the os / data disks from an azure image so it can be mounted as regular disks on another azure vm?
For example, I capture an image of a vm. Later, I want to extract an earlier version of a file that exists on a disk in that image. Right now, I would create a new vm from that image, detach the data disk, delete the new vm, attach the data disk to another
vm, and finally access the file. Is there a way to re-create the disks stored in the image without going through the vm-creation bit?
As mentioned above, for data disks, I can detach it from a vm and attach it to another vm. But is there a way to do the same with the os disk? When I delete a vm and tell it to keep the attached disk, it doesn't seem to apply for the os disk. Or at least
I don't know where to look for it. For example, I take an image of a vm. Later the vm no longer boots. Instead of deleting the vm and creating a new vm from image, a less drastic approach is to shutdown the vm, detach the os disk, attach the os disk from
the image, and try booting the vm. Is this possible? I would normally do this on a <cough> competitor's cloud service.

Command: extract color pallette from image

Hiyas,
I remember being able to run a command, proably an extension,
to extract all the colors in an image, and paste them nicely in a
what looked like a color sample format in a new image. Essentially
it was describing all the colors in the image, with a square of
color, along with the hex values of each color.
I can't remember what this command is, or where it can be
found.
Can you help?
Thanks,
Steve

Reading text and charachters from image

Hi,
Is there anyone that could share code to extract/collect text from images? I've tried nConvert and gocr but its not working very well (also its external programs). I would be extremley grateful if someone could share som code to parse the texts and numbers from an image.
Thanks in advance!
BR

To answer your question - I'm teaching myself java and I haven't covered enumeration classes yet.
With the setGender("Q") scenario, the data in the text file has already been validated by other methods before being written to the file. Anyway I worked out my problems were caused by "input = read.readLine()" being in the wrong places. The code below works fine though I've left out the set and get methods for the time being.
Chris
public static void readFile()throws IOException{
String name = "";
String gender = "";
int age = 0;
BufferedReader read = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("myfile.txt"));
String input = read.readLine();
while(input != null){
name = input;
input = read.readLine();
gender = input;
input = read.readLine();
age = Integer.parseInt(input);
input = read.readLine();
System.out.println("Name: " + name + " Gender: " + gender + " Age: " + age);
read.close();

Pdftotext extracting from image files mystery

hello all, just had a bit of a shock when I ran pdftotext (accidentally) on an unocr'd pdf file, and it extracted all the text. Running pdftohtml (as I'd intended) produced the expected output - i.e. png dumps. Curious, I then tried running it on a bunch of other downloaded files, and with the exception of one, pdftotext extracted the text from ALL of them. The mystery then is that it isnt using any ocr (no tesseract dependency, plus it's way too quick), so clearly it must be pulling it directly from the files. But if the text really is there in the original, then presumably the people who scanned them didn't know, else they'd have left it there. The only thing I can think is that some common piece of pdf software (probably acrobat) has ocr built in, so it's scanning them automatically and then encoding the hidden text in the pdf.
take for example (legal):
http://www.cd3wd.com/cd3wd_40/JF/JF_VE/SMALL/27-714.pdf
open up in a normal pdfreader - very clearly a (poorly) scanned document. Now run 'pdftotext -layout' on it and you get a pretty impressive text file, considering the source. Sure, some of the formatting is messed up, but I'm sure anyone with sed knowledge could quickly sort most of that out. Besides, that's one of the worst documents - on most others it was perfect, maintaining columns (even tesseract can't do that) and everything.
It makes for a fantastic command line pdf reader that works on almost all the files I've thrown at it, and since pdf's are almost the only reason I ever have to load up X, consider me tickled pink.
Just thought I'd mention it here, as a google search brings up nothing on the issue. hope someone finds it useful

Yes, Adobe Acrobat has a feature that allows you OCR the text and insert the text as a separate layer behind the image. Such PDFs are called "Searchable image PDFs". There are no doubt some other commercial software options that can do this too. The copier/scanner/multifunction device in my office actually does this automatically when you scan in a text PDF.
Theoretically, it is even possible to create PDFs like this using free software on linux (a combination of ExactImage and Cuneiform; or WatchOCR).
See, e.g., this blog post:
Searchable PDFs with linux
and this slashdot story:
Open Source OCR that makes Searchable PDFs
My own experiments with trying to get something like this to work have not been very successful--at least the quality of the result is nowhere near what I'm getting with our work printer.
If you like pdftohtml, you should also know about pdfreflow, which takes the XML output of pdftohtml with the -xml flag and creates an html file that can be reflowed (I.e., is smart about paragraph breaks, removes page numbers and recombines words broken through hyphenation and so on).

My black Box doesnt match the colour of the image it is sampled from when printed, suggestions?

I have a black image covering half a page whilst placed next to it is a black box which has been sampled from the colour of the image, the CYMK are the same yet when printed the box comes out a different shade of black. suggestions?

There are a couple of things that could be going on, and as an aside, trying to match a solid background to a sampled area in an image is seldom successfule as there is too much variability in the actual color in most images.
The first possible issue is that the sample you are taking could be inaccurate. Are you sampling in ID or in Photoshop? You mentioned CMYK, and I don't believe ID will sample the CMYK in a placed image, but uses the preview instead. If you are sampling in Photoshop you are either sampling an average of the pixels in a square area, or a single pixel, depending on the eyedropper settings, and either choice is likely not to be truly representative in many cases. A further complication is if you are sampling an image that has a differnt color profile from the working space in ID.
The other big possibility is that your printer uses what is know as a dual-layer or CT-Line (for continuous Tone/Line art) processor and handles the raster image differently from the vector object created in ID. Theres a pretty good explanation of this in InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Eliminating YDB (Yucky Discolored Box) Syndrome

I am trying to use photomerge compose. I open one standard jpeg image and one image that is my business logo in a png format.

It has worked in the past but I downloaded the update today and photomerge will not work correctly. Any ideas?

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

Colour profiles of images are removed by Muse

Muse removes the colour profile of images when resizing or cropping them. Apparently, colour profile is preserved when image is in original size.
This is a MAJOR ISSUE not solved in more than eight months since it was reported.
Muse is useless for an artist to display his work if colours are displayed incorrectly.

Some browsers support color management and some don't. In order to have image color preserved across browsers you'll want to save your images using a sRGB color profile. If another color profile is used and the browser doesn't support color management, color shifts will occur.
If the images are already sRGB and you're still seeing a color shift, it would be helpful to have the URL for a page that demonstrates the problem. Thanks.

Request shows in Red status after extraction of Data from Planning area

Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from DP planning area to APO BW Info Cube. It was working fine but from last few days after extraction we are getting Red status of that request. However whatever data packages we are extracting we are getting same in to Info Cube also. But only status of that request is in Red.
I gone through step by step analysis I found "Data selection succesfully finished?" statement in Red status & rest are in green. When I gone through the details of this statement then I found Missing "Message:Selection Completed" in yellow status.
Any Idea? How do i resolve this issue?
Please advise..
Regards
Sujay

Hi Sujay,
Check the logs obtained after the extraction.
This only will tell you fare idea for you to proceed further
to resolve the error that has happened.
Also check whether the extracted data is correct by
random sampling of extracted data

R. Senthil Mareeswaran.
