Fit Image action stops on some jpgs

I need to batch thousand of images w different file size dimensions & formats (.eps, .tif, .jpg) to have a print dimension 3"x2" @ 300 dpi (900x600 pixels). Fit Image seems to be the "perfect" feature for this task as long the image starting resolution is 300 dpi. If the image starting resolution is 72 dpi I have to uncheck "resample image" change document dimensions to 3"x2", check "resample image" & then change the resolution to 300 dpi to meet our print requirements.
From Bridge CS5 I select the images that have resolution of 300 dpi> Tools> Photoshop> Batch> I select the action Fit Image. The problem I'm having is w the jpgs. Sometimes I get the JPG options window. (See attached) which stops the batch to keep processing images until I select OK. I noticed this doesn't happen w every jpg. Is there any way to automate this task without getting any windows?
I have learned a lot reading posts related to the Fit Image feature. I want to thank all the Photoshop gurus out there.
PS.: I tried Image Processor... but I think Fit Image work better for my purposes. I'm using PS CS5

Thank You c.pfaffenbichler for your quick response.
I was searching for Fit Image in the forums & spent a good amount of time yesterday trying to find answer. I guess I have to keep looking why I'm still getting the JPG options window.

I think there have been previous threads about this, but you’d have to check them out to see if a workable solution was offered.
Re-saving jpgs seems less than adviseable to me in any case.
And I wonder why you find Fit Image more convenient than Image Processor in this case?
In Bridge I select all the images that are 300 ppi including jpg, eps & tiff files. If the original file is a jpg using Image Processor was Ok but when I'm processing eps & tif converting those files to jpg using Image Processor I noticed that the picture quality changed (blur) & I have to sharpen the pictures.
I would like to hear your opinion about Image Processor & why do you think is a better approach than Fit Image action

"Fit Image" CS-5 upresing with "don't enlarge" checked

I have been trying to use the new "fit image" action and embedding it in an action. Even with the "don't enlarge" box checked it will make an image bigger.
Is this a known issue? Am I doing something wrong.
I'm trying to limit images of mixed resolutions to a maximum of 4600px on the long side. I have an action with 4600x4600 fit image embedded (with "don't enlarge" checked) and it will make a file that's 2000x3000, 4600 on the long side.
Then I tested Fit Image stand alone. With the "don't enlarge" box checked it will still enlarge an image even one at a time. It seems like the "don't enlarge" check box does nothing at all.
ARRRGGGG.
Any suggestions.
Thanks,
Tom

Thank you.
Please, please let the people in India in Tech support know. I spent more than an hour with them trying to make them understand it wasn't something wrong with my installation and that there had to be a bug in the software.

Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver? The same images look fine in Preview and Finder. Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver? The same images look fine in Preview and Finder. Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

The desktop image is fine, taken from the exact same pool of jpg photos. However, as soon as the slide show screen saver comes on, the images are scrambled. What is it about the apple screen saver algorithm that scrambles the pics?

Resize image code doesn't work for some JPGs

Hi. I'm using the below code to resize images and store them on the server. However, with some JPGs, the resize produces a reddish tint on the image. Any ideas what could be causing this? Here's the original image: http://www.unctv.org/tWxkBbq_10M6wKRRL/PNCWWD01.jpg and here's what it produces afterward: http://www.unctv.org/tWxkBbq_10M6wKRRL/PABDFC01__1289231445291.jpg
Photoshop CS5 is used to produce the JPG input for this app. Thanks.

I don't know anything about the jpeg encoders, but I do see code that doesn't make any sense to me:
Image resizedImage = null;
int iWidth = image.getWidth(null);
int iHeight = image.getHeight(null);
// This code ensures that all the pixels in the image are loaded.
Image temp = new ImageIcon(resizedImage).getImage();What is the point of creating an ImageIcon from a null image?
int newWidth = (int)this.targetWidth;I don't see where you actually use this variable, so how does the image get resized?
For more help create a [url http://sscce.org]SSCCE, that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour and maybe someone will take a look at it.

Color problem on some jpg images

Suddenly it happens that some jpg images look almost black (very high level of contrast). I use a Samsung SyncMaster 245B monitor and I had never this effect before. I uninstalled Photoshop Elements and reinstalled, but the problem remains.
Other jpg pictures look normal, but I am unable to understand any difference in the original files.
The same bad pictures look fine if I open them with PaintShop Pro, this could bring me to consider a bad setup of Photoshop Elements ... but which one ?
Can you help me in finding a solution ?
Thanks

I agree with your comment. But what I don't understand is:
1) The monitor was calibrated and no changes done. The problem don't was present days ago.
2) Why only some jpg show this problem, while others generally are shown OK. I may add only that the bad ones are larger in pixels.
Thanks for your answer.

Can I do a "Fit Image" ala Photoshop in Illustrator

I have need to be able to make different size and orientation images fit into a 1.25" x 2.15" area.
I can do this easily in Photoshop with the "Fit Image" command. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to do this in Illy. I have created an action which can change the dimensions, but some are too tall or too wide for my confined area.
Can anyone offer insight, please?
Thanks!

First no advertising on the forum you might want to edit your last post and remove all that crap.
Now you your problem make an action, very simple.
it goes like this start recording and the
1. Select All
2. Enter in the control panel width field the width you want
3. Enter in the control panel the height you want stop recording
Ok this might not be quite what you want because some are more vertical and some more horizontal and in the action click the constrain proportion icon.
so the you do two separate actions and you have to separate the vertical and the horizontal files into separate folders.
You can use the bridge to select all the horizontal and Vertical artwork files. The bridge show a review of the art in Illy files.
Now you can batch the two.
It is a good feature request.
The only other way would be to write a script with a true and false argument for width and height parameters.
Then you would only need to run the script or have ti associated with a folder and drop the files in the folder.
You can visit the scripting forum there maybe one that already exist.

Resume Batch Process After Action Stop

I have an action in Photoshop that includes two different stops to allow the user to make adjustments to the image. I would like to run this action on multiple files, but the whole batch process stops when the action stops.
How can I make Photoshop (and/or bridge) resume processing the remaining images after the user completes the adjustments?

Mike:
As you now know, this workflow cannot be automated due to the embedded STOPS:
* Open an image fle
* STOP
- Levels
- Mask
* STOP
- Tweak background
* Save as .psd
* Flatten
* Save as .jpg
* Close
* [repeat until all image files processe]
...but consider this possibility:
Open all (or some) candidate image files via Bridge, File > Open, Drag/Drop into PS Window. Then on each:
* Levels
* Mask
* Tweak background
* Minimize window when done
* Go onto the next open file
When all image windows minimized (signfying completion of tweaking), play a new action (e.g., "Save files") that would consist of two Automate > Batch steps:
* Batch step 1: play [new] action "Save as .psd"
Source: open images
- save files in .psd format in a folder of choice
* Batch step 2: play [new] action "Open .psd, flatten and save as .jpg"
Source: folder of just saved .psd files
- flatten each and save in .jpg format in a folder of choice
Kind of a bass ackwards approach, but once setup was complete it would offer a 1-click solution to batch saving the files in the format and folders desired.

A script to increase the minimum canvas size? (Like Fit Image, but with just my canvas)

For starters to be clear, I'm looking to manipulate canvas size. Not image size.
I want to create a script to automatically increase the width and height of my canvas in Photoshop to a specific size when necessary. I only want this to happen if my canvas is less than that specified size. For example: Let's say my canvas size is 300x250. I want the canvas to be at LEAST 600x600. If I run my action it will increase the canvas size to 600x600 for me. If I run this same script on an image where the canvas size is already 700x700, it won't do anything at all to it because both the width and height are equal to or greater than my target size.
It would also need to work with the height and width on an individual basis. If my image is 400x800, the action would increase my width from 400 to 600, but it would leave the height of 800 alone. So the final canvas size will end up being 600x800.
It's kind of like the "Fit Image" option in Photoshop, but I only want to manipulate my canvas size, NOT my image size.

It is possible.
But if you hope that the dialog remembers the last settings that would require storing those values (which could be done with a txt-file at some pre-defined location), but it would make the Script a bit more complicated.
// resize canvas in either direction if it is below a defined minimum;
// 2011; use it at your own risk;

          if (Number(this.text <= 0)) {this.text = 5};
          this.text = Math.round(Number(this.text));

dlg.hor = dlg.add("edittext", [14,15,88,35], "600", {multiline:false});

Fit image: always in centimeters instead of pixels?!

Hi
I'm desperatly looking for a solution to following problem: I want to batch resize images WITHOUT using the "image processor". So I recorded some "Fit Image" steps. In the past they actually got recorded with the unit "pixels" but with CS4 all pixel values get recorded as cm. I already set my ruler units to pixels but it doesn't matter. All actions get recorded in centimeters.
This also happens with other actions.
How can I record my actions in pixels?
Thanks

Thanks.
Yes but it gets recorded like this (in centimeters):
I'm recording either via the record button in the actions windows or by double clicking the entry you see above. It DOES work on my machine but as I often record actions for co-workers these actions won't correctly run on their installations.
The problem with the Image Processor is that I can't control when the resizing is done. If I want to do some actions before resizing I can't do it with the IP.

CS4: Fit Image Problem

Recently had a very bizarre issue that just happened. Not sure why, but it won't go away.
I use the Fit Image script quite a bit. For sizing images that will end up on the blog, batching out files for proofs, etc. I have it written into many of my actions.
Up until a few days ago, if you opened any action that I've recorded and expanded out the Fit Image step, you would see the dimensions (in pixels) that were recorded. Then, I started getting an error message for any action that used Fit Image. The error message was "Javascript code was missing".
I checked my scripts folder and the Fit Image script is there. Nothing has changed. I even used Time Machine to go back a few weeks and see if anything had been deleted. Nothing.
I tried to write a new action using Fit Image and now, instead of the expanded view showing the size in pixels, it's showing in inches! When I manually use Fit Image, the dialog box comes up with pixels ONLY, so why is it that the recorded step is shown in inches?
I've gone so far as to uninstall CS4 and reinstall it. The first thing I did was record an action and I'm getting the same results. Why would this just change and does this mean I have to re-record all my actions that use Fit Image?
Any ideas or insight?

The problem come down to the fact the the way scripts are recorded in actions the full path of the script is recorded. If you un-install CS3 its script directory will be deleted so the script is gone CS4 script is in a different directory.
CS2 and prior recording of the plug-in fit image were recorded as step Fit Image not as a script path step. These actions should still work for when Photoshop starts up the CS4 Fit Image scripts register as the plug-in Automate>Fit Image. When these action are played and the plug-in step Fit Image get played it is looking for the registered Fit Image Plug-in Photoshop should run the CS4 Fit Image Script.
The bug in Fit Image is very minor. One day I used fit image on a image that was 1080 x 1080 and fit image was set to 1200 x 1200 the resulting image turned out to be 1201 x 1200 one side was one pixel off there were 1200 extra pixels.
Reading the CS3 Fit Image Script I saw this:
     docRatio = docWidth / docHeight; // decimal ratio of original width/height
     // NOTE - ccox - 17 Aug 2004 - I added the rounding by 0.5
     // this should solve reported cases of fit image being off by 1 (always under)
     // NOTE - elr - 3 May 2006 - keep original aspect ratio
     newWidth = width;
     newHeight = ((1.0 * width) / docRatio) + 0.5; // decimal calc
     newHeight = 1 * newHeight; // make integer
     if (newHeight > height) {
          newWidth = 0.5 + docRatio * height; // decimal calc
          newWidth = 1 * newWidth; // make integer
          newHeight = height;
Someone fixed fit image not to be one pixel under. I thought this fix most likely cause my one over problem so I stuck in some alerts to see the numbers. Looked like the multiply by one to round did not round and I thought the .5 value perhaps would work better if it were .4. So I changed to code to
     docRatio = docWidth / docHeight; // decimal ratio of original width/height
     // NOTE - ccox - 17 Aug 2004 - I added the rounding by 0.5
     // this should solve reported cases of fit image being off by 1 (always under)
     // rounding by .5 seem to make some sides 1 Px large change to .4 and used math round to round JJMack
     // NOTE - elr - 3 May 2006 - keep original aspect ratio
     newWidth = width;
     newHeight = ((1.0 * width) / docRatio) + 0.4; // decimal calc
     newHeight = Math.round(newHeight); // make integer
     if (newHeight > height) {
          newWidth = 0.4 + docRatio * height; // decimal calc
          newWidth = Math.round(newWidth); // make integer
          newHeight = height;

Fit Image & Sharpening

In Photoshop CC
Mac OSX
When using the command 'fit Image' in an action, is there some sort of sharpening going on ? Bicubic, BicubicSharper, BicubicSmoother, none...

I do no like your action at all put it in the trash. I don't like the fact that you interpolating a single document 4 times. It also look like you trying to backup in history to before one of the resizes but from what I see it misses and would just backup to before the save. The Action might be hard to Batch perhaps the batch processor could override the save as steps but the names would be the same with a suffix. A3 and A4 have a slightly different aspect ratio. I see nothing in you action to crop to either. The Fit Image steps I see are for a Landscape or Portrait image the has a correct aspect ratio whatever you define as correct. The fit image step make the larger side near A3 300dpi size and near A4 300dpi pixel size. However I see no Image size step setting the DPI to 300dpi with resample not checked. I could send you a plug=in script the you could use to do centered A3 and A4 aspect ratio crop that would handle both orientations. Still there are other problems an action can't handle.
The easiest want to handle this is with a script. A script that you do not need to write just download a use. However because the A3 and A4 sizes have different aspect ratios that are also different the your camera images aspect ratio you may nee to do some cropping or decide on how you want to handle aspect ratio mismatches.
Without any actions you could download the Image Processor Pro and process Landscape or Portrait images in a run. If you want to mix landscapes and Portraits. You would need to download my crafting action package and use my plug-in script Aspect Ratio Selection in a couple of actions to do centered A3 and centered A4 crops of the selection set by the plug-in.

Preview.app in Snow Leopard doesn't open some jpg files

Preview.app in Snow Leopard doesn't open some jpg files.
Preview does't issue an error message, it behaves as I did't try to open file at all.
These images could be easy opened in iPhoto, so files seem to be OK.
I couldn't attach one such example image to this message, it's exceeds 2mb limit, but courtesy to google image could be downloaded by the link https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B56gs1tsb9aNYjA2MDdmNzUtOWY3NS00ODg1LWIzZDAtYTA 5YzFjZmZjYjRh&hl=en_US.
What's that? Should I file a bug?

Unfortunately, it sounds as if your internal disk failed (hardware failure).
Things to try:
(1) Boot from your Apple Hardware Test CD/DVD, which sometimes is a separate disk or sometimes is on the original OS install disk. Run the tests, all of them, to see what is amiss.
(2) Reset PRAM as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379 . I don't think this is likely to help because even though your startup disk is not being selected, it seems that your internal disk is simply unable to be found or mounted, implying hardware failure more than software. But it's worth a try.
Probably time to take your computer in for repairs, either at the Apple Store or to an authorized Apple repair shop. Most likely they will simply replace your drive. You could also ask them to mount the old drive in an enclosure to see if files can be copied from it if you don't have a backup.

Some Artwork images are shown and some are not, in Finder ???

I scan the CD Cover of my music CD that I put in my iTunes (all with the same scanning setting; size, resolution, JPG...). When I go in the saved folder (Album Artwork) in Finder, some images are shown and some are not (even in Cover Flow), for those who are not, they only show a default image of a little boy with JPEG written in the center. When I go in iTunes, the image Artwork are OK, it's only in Finder that some are shown and some are not. In Finder, when I click for more info on the file, all the info seem OK and I see the preview image as it should. The bug is only in Finder.
What is the problem, and how can I fix that ???
Thank's

Buz,
If you select one of the images for which you can't see the thumbnail, Control + Click and select "Get Info". Can you see the thumbnail Preview in that view (Expand it if necessary)? What are the Sharing & Permissions at the bottom?

javascript: onload="onPgLoad();"I kept the code just in case I needed it @ a later time.
My Dynamic Action
Event: on change
item --> :p310_force_gen_utc_srch (this is a select list that submits)
conditon --> in list
value --> '0GTAA', '8MMUB', 'CCMAR', '0GQGC', '0GQGB', '3NNNA', '3PQAA', 'XMCAS', '8NJAA', 'XMMCB', '9VCBH', '3PNAA'
True Action --> show :p310_force_gen_rprtg_orgn
False Action --> hide :p310_force_gen_rprtg_orgn
They both fire on page load.
The :p319_utc_srch has submits the page because the :p310_force_gen_rprtg_orgn lov runs a query to pull back that units reporting orgs only.
Please help me figure this out.
Thanks,
Mary

Hi Mary,
So you changed from the code presented to a DA ? I'm not clear as to exactly happens or doesn't happen.
Do you know if your AJAX calls are failing?
If you use a Console like the one on Firebug or Chrome you can inspect what's being send and what's being returned.
I mention this because your htmldb_Get calls looks suspicious.
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,null,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=PROC_UTC_RPRTG_ORG',0);I would change it to
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=PROC_UTC_RPRTG_ORG',$v('pFlowStepId'));That would pass the app_id and the page_id that is calling. Although this is probably not your current issue.
See if you can find some javascript error. It's possible that this is a timing problem as to when the code is defined and when it's loaded.
Thanks
