Help! How to Merge Linked Layers?

in CS3.
Thanks!

From Help:
Merge and stamp layers
When you have finalized the content of layers, you can merge them to reduce the size of your image files. When you merge layers, the data on the top layers replaces any data it overlaps on the lower layers. The intersection of all transparent areas in the merged layers remains transparent.
Note: You cannot use an adjustment layer or fill layer as the target layer for a merge.
In addition to merging layers, you can stamp them. Stamping allows you to merge the contents of more than one layer into a target layer while leaving the other layers intact.
Note: When you save a merged document, you cannot revert back to the unmerged state; the layers are permanently merged.
Merge two layers or groups
1. Make sure that the layers and groups you want to merge are visible.
2. Select the layers and groups you want to merge.
b 3. Choose Layer > Merge Layers.
Note: You can merge two adjacent layers or groups by selecting the top item and then choosing Layer > Merge Down or Merge Group. You can merge linked layers by choosing Layer > Select Linked Layers, and then merging the selected layers.

How to merge adjustment layers to several layers and export layers to files

Hi!
I have now exactly the same problem as below with over 1000 images, I have saved them in .psd that has over 100 layers each. On top of those there is curves and levels layer that affects every layer below. I want to save all images to .jpg for videoedit with those curves at least. I don't want to merge same curves 100 times. Is there a solution in phothoshop cs5 or cs6 available? Would save alot of working hours. All I have got by this far is blank white images of adjustment layers and non adjusted jpg-files.
This discussion was opened in 2010 and I quess this is same problem:
How to merge adjustment layers to hundreds of layers?
Jul 28, 2010 10:38 AM
Say I have a photoshop File with 100 layers. And say I created 3 adjustment layers on top of those 100 layers to get the adjustments that i want for those layers. I'm happy with the adjustments but Then I NEED to merge those 3 adjustment layers to ALL those 100 layers. Is there a way to easily permanently apply the adjustments to each of those layers without having to do it manually? I absolutely need to merge the adjustments to the seperate layers because of how the layers are being used in a seperate 3d program.
So far what I've been doing is duplicating the adjustment layers for each layer and merging them to said layers separately.. Anyone have a better way? I wish I could just right click the adjustment layer and Tell it to merge to everylayer it affects or apply to every layer underneath it!
Anyone?
Thanks!
Thanks alot if u solve this!

Record an action starting with your adjustments on top, with all of the adjustment layers selected.
1 - Duplicate the adjustment layers
2 - Select backward layer (alt-[)
3 - Select backward layer with add (alt-shift-[)
4 - Repeat step 3 as many times as needed (for three adjustments this would be twice more)
5 - Merge layers
6 - Select forward layer (alt-])
7 - Select forward layer with add (alt-shift-])
8 - Repeat 7 as needed (for three adjustments it would be once more)
9 - Move to previous layer (ctrl-[)
Then run it 100 times. Or duplicate these steps a few times and run the 5-up action 20 times. To retain the original layer name, you could dupe the image layer, and move the original to the top of the stack (alt-] a few times) about to be merged and reduce its opacity to 0%. The basic idea is to use alt-], alt-shift-] and ctrl-] to navigate around, and record an action that gets you can to square 1, except that your adjustments have been dropped down to the next layer below.
You could also export layers to files, batch them by adding and merging the adjustment layers, and then loading them back into the stack. Or use pixel replacement variables to do much the same thing.

Help: How to merge excel data onto PDF form

What steps do i need to take in order to merge excel data into my form. I'm currently looking into pulling the following fields from excell and merge them into my form:
Employee name
Employee ID#
Position Title
Supervisor
I been browsing around LiveCycle Designer and haven't stumble upon this feature yet.
Thank you for your time and really looking for some help out there.
Edit: I want to create 600 records containing the information above out of my one form. That way i don't have to sit here and do i form for each employee one at the time.

Good afternoon Mr. Niall,
Well i already created the XML file so that is ready to go, just been trying to figure out how execute a merge and create 600 records one for each employee.
I was looking into exporting the PDF file into word and that way i could execute this merge much more easily but i don't think i have the capabilities to do so.

How to temporally link layers in prem cs5?

Hi
I have a complicated project and for various reasons the producer has asked me to drop in a extra gfx making my framing all off.. so I need to simple move a section of the project to the left, but I need to move near 20 layers and have them all move in relation to each other.
Is there someway I can simple select all the levels and move the objects on the screen together with out linking all the move tracks and wiping the animation that is already there?
An example would be in photoshop you can shift select layers to multi select then the move tool will move all of them at once... but even with the layers selected in the timeline the move tool dose not seam to move all at once
Thanks in Advance
-Me

1. In the timeline select all the clips you wish to move together;
2. Right click and click on "Group".
3. The selected clips become a group and you can move them together.
You can then "ungroup" them is you wish.

CS2 merge linked

Hi
Does anyone out there no how to merge linked layers in CS2 (windows)?

Hi,
Best solution I found is to unlink contacts and then do merge on Mac using Contacts. To do so select few same contacts and select "Merge cards" in "Card" menu at the top. Now you can sync contacts from Mac to iCloud and back to iPhone. Now all needed contacts merged without links anywhere.
For me the trick was that contact which is auto synced from FB on iPhone should be the first selected while merging. In other case next FB sync will add new contact near merged one, if name or lastname is spelled slightly differently. Probably it's only my problem, because in Russia we have different ways how to transliterate names into English so contacts synced from different systems like FB, Google or iCloud may be spelled differently.
Hope it'll help!

Hi IScreen,
I'm not sure what you mean by merging layers with these colours. Can you describe your problem a little more clearly?

How to keep the layers effects when merging the layers to save a Tif?

I am loosing all my layers effects when I merge all the layers together to save the image in the tif format! How to avoid this lost? Can someone help me? this is very urgent! I have to give the file to the printer for my solo exhibition on tomorrow morning and I am turning and turning to find a solution but can't!!!Thank you very much in advance.

You do not have to flatten for the .tif format, match these settings.
If the printer is requiriing you to send a flat file, try flattening first via the layers palete flyout.
If you stil need help, a screenshot of your layers, may help shed some light on what may be going on.

How to merge layers?

I've used Photoshop for 20 years, but sporadically. I know enough to be dangerous. Recently started working on a simple logo for my church group. It's all grayscale, with horizontal lines that thin or thicken to reveal a shape. Dummy me, I was in such a big hurry that I just started drawing lines like mad, then stopped and saw that Photoshop had faithfully put each new line on its own layer. Well, I though I remembered from past use that one of the options in the Layers palette was "Merge down." But when I looked for it, it wasn't there. Did I just imagine this feature? How do I pick a group of layers and make them become one layer? By the way, since my Photoshop needs are pretty basic, I've never upgraded from version 7.

One way would be to link the layers you want to merge
and then choose merge linked.
The reason you don't see merge down is because your working
with shape layers.

Can you 'Link Layers' in Illustrator like in Photoshop, or only merge?

I have spent days searching for How to 'link layers' in Illustrator (similar to how you would in Photoshop).
Is this even possible,..? as it appears not.
I can merge layers.. But i only want to LINK to keep the elements separate.
Thanks for any advice,
regards, a newbie.

Ok the default swatches should open with each new document, if that are not doing so then one of two things probably is occurring!
1 you have accidentally opened the default print document deleted the swatches because you probably did not need them for wha you were working on and then did a save and overwrote the default document and now the swatches are gone.
2 You selected a custom made document profile that had now swatches, except the ones you say are there, when creating a new document and that is being defaulted as the next new document,Illustrator remembers the last document setting.

If the third link you posted (the link containing the word "majority") does not look like the following then you inadvertently installed adware.
That particular page should resemble the following:
The word "majority" in the third paragraph should not be a link and should not have the green icon associated with it.
To learn how this may have occurred, and how to prevent it from occurring in the future, read How to install adware
Most so-called "news" websites are nothing more than entertainment outlets that cater to prurient interests, and contain advertisements that leave the user about three clicks away from installing junk. If you decide to frequent those websites, Safari's "Reader" feature helps minimize that exposure.

How to merge two storage drives into one partition-help

THis is on an iPad-Please excuse for any typos
I Am working on a project of restoring a macbook pro from old parts that I found. It works!!! But the HDD that i salvadged is ancient and gets about .15 MBPS. Not good. Its an apple certified and apple branded toshiba HDD-500G at 5400RPM. Yeah. *****
I am considering buying a new hard drive as a 480GB SSD, and using OWC's Data doubler, adding a second HDD, for all the photos and vids i will be collecting through my work in video and photo. I am considering getting an SSHD (SSD+HDD in an SSD form factor) and using this as the second drive. its not much more expensive (like 10$ more) and itgetsme semi-SSD like performance on a mass scale of storage.
HOw can I combine these two drives into ONE partition? 480GB will take awhile to fill up, but this is a future proof wall to use.
I Will eventually invest in an external storage option (2-3 HDDS in one caddy for backups and storing 1080p video all under one roof. depends if the board im using actually has thunderbolt or usb that is fast enough-because of the crappy hdd i cant get it to boot into an OS or go through usb recovery without it freezing. I ahve tried re-applying thermal paste, still doesnt help)
HOw can i easily partition these two drives into one?
also, my friend needs a new HDD because bootup times in his macbook pro are at like 2 mins+ and hes running Core 2 Duo, with 8 G ram and 10.9 (Mav) should i recommend an SSHD or an ssd. (He doesnt want an HDD, hes had bad 'voodoo' with em'. Thanks!

How can I merge the layers ? (in C#)

Hi
I exported a map to PDF on ESRI ArcGIS Engine and found that there were more layers than I had expected.
And so I want to delete or merge some of the layers.
I found the way in Acrobat Pro Application, but cannot found the way in Acrbat SDK.
Could you let me know how to delete or merge the layers with Acrobat SDK (C#).

There are no C# APIs for that doing, only C/C++ APIs available to plugins
