Help with cropping & sorting images prior to export for print

I have large project (wedding) within which I've sorted images into several folders (pre-wedding, church, family portraits, etc.) within which there are smart albums based on my ratings. I also have a generic "5 Star" album at the top level which contains the final images that have been adjusted and which the client has been provided with in order to choose from.
I now have a list of print requirements from the client (image name, size, and quantity).
I'm curious to know what the quickest way to sort and tag the images selected for print, particularly in view of there being a number of different size requests for the images which are to be printed.
Also - I'd value opinions (based on experience) on whether I should bother cropping to size for images that are 5x7 and 8x10 (the default ratio is 2x3 at the moment).
The bottom line is that I'm trying to minimise the amount of time I spend on print tagging and cropping prior to export, and post export sorting prior to sending off to the lab.
Thanks,
Paul

To answer your questions:
I am assuming that you want a new version of the crop size especially if you have an image/s that are required in multiple sizes like 8x10 and 5x7 the image would end up in each crop size album so you would have two versions one for each aspect ratio and doing the new version in the context of the album would make in the album pic so that the proper one will be at the top of the stack in each respective album.
Orientation does not matter with the stamp it will work fine - if you have an issue let me know.
with respect to the stamp - the stamp will position the crop relative to the one you lifted - if your lifted crop is in the middle then so will the stamped ones.
As for adjustment of the crop - just click on the crop tool, the click on the browser image and arrow through the images with the crop tool open - you can drag the crop around for each one with a minimum of keystrokes.
Try it and hit me back with issues. I do this all the time and it is about 3000x quicker than my old workflow 5 years ago. For that matter the power of albums, stacks, and stack picks for this kind of thing is fabulous, there are a million ways to use it to speed things up. Bonus is that you are not copying anything so it is virtually free from a resource perspective.
Last but not least I would think twice before using a smart album to do this, youi really do not want the content changing in this type of album, it will not save you any time, I would use static albums in the manner that I suggested.

I just googled and found lots of folks with the same problem. One fellow wrote this as a soluton:
"All you have to do is
remove the values from the imageLinks in the flash element. That
should fix it."
Does it?

Exporting for Print

Hello all...When prepping an image export for print, the following values are asked for by my print company. Not sure about these two:
1. What resolution do I export at? How do I know the maximum I have available on that image with enlarging?
2. LR does not allow me to select a bit depth when I export. They require 8bit how can we verify this?
TIA,
Amelia

1. If by resolution you mean pixels per inch, there is no maximum. Normally printers require 240 or 300 ppi. If you want a picture a certain size (say 4x6), you need to crop the image to that size and then export, and in the Export dialog you can set the pixels per inch to give you 4x6.
2. If you export as a .jpg, then it has to be 8-bit. All .jpg photos are 8-bit.

Export for print

What should the DPI be set for when you export for print? (The best quality) What should the settings for gamma, and the color profile be also? Not sure what gamma and color profile is.

The DPI setting during export doesn't affect the quality of the print. It is only used by some software to determine what size the image is printed at. For example, a 1500 x 1500 pixel size image exported at 300 DPI would print as a 5" x 5" size if your printing software was told to print actual size. If you exported that same image at 150 DPI, it would want to print at 10" x 10". Your printing software can easily override these settings anyway so the DPI setting doesn't do much.
Most printers and printing services use the sRGB profile so that is the setting to use unless you specifically know your printer will use something else.
The gamma setting can be used to change the brightness of the image. I would leave it as the default unless your prints are coming out too dark or light.

Help please with exporting for print

Hi All,
Hopefully someone here can help. I have the opportunity to get some 24x30 inch lustre prints printed out for free but the printer has some specific file requirements which I am not 100% sure how to meet.
Here they are:
1. Colour space : Adobe RGB(1998)
2. File size must be 24x30"
3. Resolution : 300ppi
4. File : Level 12 (or lower) Photoshop JPEG
Questions:
1. I have calibrated my monitor with a ColorVision Spyder so I use that profile on my MBP monitor. I then usually export from Aperture using colorsync profile sRGB IEC61966-2.1. To meet the requirement above do I just need to change the colorsync profile on export to Adobe RGB(1998) or should I be doing something while editing?
2. I use a Nikon D70 so my files are 3024 x 1998, how do this translate to inches? Do I need to up size the files and if so how do I do this in Aperture?
3. I take it all I have to do here is change the DPI setting on export to 300 (is DPI the same as PPI?)
4. I think this just means the image quality will be set to 12 on export.
Sorry for all the questions but getting prints done at a lab is something new to me and I would like to try and get the best results.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Hi Ian,
Thanks heaps for your quick reply. In regards to your answer for the 2nd question:
"2. You definitely need to upsize the files, 24x30" at 300ppi is 7200x9000px. You can use the 'fit within' option and give a size in inches and it will upsize as needed on export. Note that 24x30 is a drastically different aspect ratio than your 3:2 dSLR shots, so you may also want to crop the images to the 5:4 aspect."
Can you please advise what size, in pixels, I would need to crop to plus will this make the image less sharp, therefore I should sharpen more? Sorry I have never up sized and printed an image before so not sure if there is a correct way of doing it (I think I read somewhere you should up size in increments of 10% or something?)
Cheers.

Help with array of Images - is it possible?

Hi, i need to do this thing with tiles in my game such like this:
Image tile[] = new Image[600]

if(tiles[tilenum].equals(null)){
tile = Image.createImage("/"+tileset+"/Tile" + tilenum + ".gif");
tiles[tilenum] = tile;
}else{
tile = tiles[tilenum];
it doesn't work, because Image object has no constructor.. I don't know how to solve it. Can you help me?

- it isn't the problem, *.gif works perfectly. But thanks, your note is helpful, i'll redraw images to png:).
To Daryll.Burke - I think, that my style of writing on this forum wasn't the main problem. If you want to help me, please focus to problem itself and not on details ;). I have rewritten everything, hope that it will be more readable for you.
edit.: I have read my note from yesterday second time, and i think, i wouldn't understand it too, so sorry, man;)
Main problem (or definition of "doesn't work, as you said) is, that every time i try to compare *tile[tilenum]* (where tilenum is from interval <0;600) ) with *null* object, NullPointerException is thrown.
{code}Image tile[] = new Image[600]
//building map:

Help with creating thumbnail images

Hi there
I need some help with a webpage that displays images.
I am capturing an internal xml file ..and want to display:
An Image or images with a width of 130 px and height of 130
px
My problem is that when our users upload the pictures to the
website ..they are not resized ..and they would not know how to use
a program to do this.
Is there a code or way to take the uploaded picture file and
reduce it to a size of 130 x 130 in the existing page?
It currently is displaying the full size image(s) which are
take up 2 screens.
thanks for your time ..Rob

> Is there a code or way to take the uploaded picture file

In the HTML you can just give it a width and height of those
values.
However, the full image is still loaded by the browser, so if
the image is
large, it's still going to be a bandwidth hog.
Ideally, you'd resize on the server at time of upload. This
can be done with
various components depending on the particular back-end
server/scripting
language.

Need Help with Array.sort and compare

Hi
I have a big problem, i try to make a java class, where i can open a file and add new words, and to sort them in a right order
Ok everthing works fine, but i get a problem with lower and upper cases.
So i need a comparator, i tried everything but i just dont understand it.
How do i use this with Array.sort??
I hope someone can help me

Okay, you want to ignore case when sorting.
There are two possibilities: Truly ignore case, so that any of the following are possible, and which one you'll actually get is undefined, and may vary depending on, say, which order the words are entered in the first place:
English english German german
english English german German
English english german German
english English German german
The second possibility is that you do consider case, but it's of lower priority--it's only considered if the letters are the same. This allows only the first two orderings above.
Either way, you need to write a comparator, and call an Arrays.sort method that takes both array and Comparator.
The first situation is simpler. Just get an all upper or lower case copy of the strings, and then compare thosepublic int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
    String s1 = ((String)o1).toUpper();
    String s2 = ((String)o1).toUpper();
    return s1.compareTo(s2);
} You'll need to add your own null check if you need one.
For the second way, your comparator will need to iterate over each pair of characters. If the characters are equal, ignoring case, then you compare them based on case. You pick whether upper is greater or less than lower.
Of course, the need to do this assumes that such a method doesn't alrady exist. I don't know of one, but I haven't looked.

Need Help With Waveform-driven Image Effects

Hi,
I've been working on a full-dome 3D animation for a couple of years now and I'm looking for someone to help with a custom plug-in for After Effects, Photoshop and/or Combustion. I need to be able to drive filters and effects like Brush Strokes and 'sketchy' noise with the waveform from an audio file. I've been using a very poor mans workflow in which I've mapped the waveform by breaking it up into vertical ranges of varying intensities and then applying respective levels of the effects and filters to the sequential images based on where they fall in the waveform ranges. So for the test Ive done, I've been literally applying Photoshop actions to very small packets of still images from rendered sequences, and it has been dizzyingly time-consuming. Ideally I would want to be able to do this dynamically with a motion graphics package, but really I'm looking for as much help as I can get.
This project began as my master's thesis and I'm working on it during the free time I have between teaching and freelance work; I don't have much money but I am willing to pay for help with this goal. There is still a lot of 3D work that I still need to do and the rendering process will be slow, so this wouldn't be a job with strict or tight deadlines. The final images will be very large (3200x3200) and with the growth in the full-dome market, these sizes could easily increase. If anyone is interested or could help me with this endeavor in any way, please respond to [email protected] Thank in advance to anyone who reads this.
Max

See the SDK_Backwards sample to see how to acquire audio data from a layer. This is the same access method used by AE's own waveform drawing plug-ins. Feel free to contact me directly with any questions.

Help with CS4 tabbed image mode?

How does one drag a layer from one image to another in tabbed mode?
I'm forcing myself to work with the tabbed image interface as I assume someone thought this new feature was a good idea.
I often drag or shift+drag layers from one image to another, whether it be adjustments or image elements that need to be placed (in register) as a layer in another open image.
But when I use the tabbed interface mode any attempt to drag a layer from one tab to another does not work.
What am I missing???
Thanks
Russell

Yeah I noticed the same limitation.. they making floating document mode extra ****(UI interface that doesn't adhere to System OS visual style, documents that no longer move with the main PS UI, like when you adjust the mainframe size or move the window floating docs would get moved and stay within the UI, unless you dragged and floating doc outside the main ui frame, which was good, but now it seems floating docs always live outside the mainframe and appear above docked although open panel UIs.. not to mention the new theme looks like complete and utter dogshit.. but oh well.. CS5 might get some more work.. maybe they'll bring back the pallete well.. ******* adobe noobs.
I too liked to drag & drop of layer objects onto another document its common thing I do when working in photoshop.. I just can't believe how lame Adobe are that they couldn't allow this functionality seeing as a tabbed UI is the default setup now..
seems like the only way around it is to use the now **** floating document mode... or use one of the splitview modes.. course those are crap, but at least you can D&D layer objects, and then switch back the single doc tab.
lets not get into the flakey **** opengl support and functionality.

Help with partitioning ext firewire drive to use for storage/image backups

I just ordered a 2tb external hard drive. Want to put at least 1tb of the space for normal access file storage and use between 500gb and 750gb (probably the latter if I upgrade internal drive) for image clones to use for emergency boots. Software maybe Super Duper? Anyway, will get pre-formatted drive tomorrow and need to make it happen quick.
Would I delete whatever partition comes on it and put 2 new ones on? One for file storage and one for clone images? Or can I even just use one big 2tb partition? Want to make regular clone images for emergency booting and expand my file storage at same time. Probably use something lIke Carbon Copy Cloner(?) or Super Duper for images and maybe do some Time Machine backups?

Yes, you can do it that way. Again, it is recommended that TM have its own partition.
It sounds like you have two 2TB HDs. Why not put three partitions on one, put the 750GB of data on one partition, and you have two more partitions to clone to (I would alternate each time).
Then you have the other 2TB HD for TM. It's recommended that you have a volume at least double the size of the amount of data you're backing up (3x or more would be even better), so that would be great.
Obviously you can do what you want, but starting out from the beginning like you are, why not do it "right?" It's the "foundation," and the better that is, the better luck you're likely to have with the structure built on top of it (your backups).

CR Viewer tool bar images are missing; Export and Print are not working

Hi There
I used Crystal report 10.5(VS 2008 base crytal report -- CRRedist2008_x86.msi), i developed ASP.net application using VB.net program(i used .net 3.5). One of the pages in the application is having crystal report viewer, which is calling a crystal report to populate the result. The report is working as expected on development machine (Win Vista). Hence, I moved the application onto Server (Windows Server Web; 32Bit OS and IIS). I installed the CRRedist2008_x86.msi, which added the "aspnet_client" under default website. As my site is a made as an application under default webiste. I tried...
a) By copying the aspnet_client folder into the website folder
b) By adding a virtual directory called "aspnet_client" under my website pointing it into the folder under "default website"
None of the trials are working for me.
When I click on Print or Export buttons (although their images are missing), I get the error sigh on bottom left (status bar) of the browser and the popping up the same giving me below error details

Hello All.
I am excited to let you know that the issue is being resolved.
Here is steps that lead me to resolution and solution..
I installed Fiddler2 and looked into every the debugging details of the transaction while running the report.
Learned that the crystal report is using the aspnet_client foler under "Default website" NOT under the crrent website.
Hence I tried to access the image via http path from local machine
http://myserver/aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/CrystalReportWebFormViewer4/images/toolbar/export.gif.
(Notice, "mysite" folder is been removed)
I was expecting to see the gif on my browsers' body. It gave me an error.
Investigated further more on the error and found that the "Managed Pipe Line" of the respective application pool is to be changed to "Classic" instead of "Integrated"
changed it .. Boom...
Tool bar is showing up with proper images and as well the "Export" and "Print" functions are working as expected..
Hope this helps to those in the same situation.
Again.. this is one of many many solutions on this issues.
Thank You

WRT310N: Help with DMZ/settings (firmware 1.0.09) for wired connection

Hello. I have a WRT310N and have been having a somewhat difficult time with my xbox 360's connection. I have forwarded all the necessary ports (53, 80, 88, 3074) for it to run, and tried changing MTU and what-not.
I don't know if I have DMZ setup incorrectly, or if it's my settings.
Setup as follows:
PCX2200 modem connected via ethernet to WRT310N.
The WRT310N has into ethernet port 1 a WAP54G, and then upstairs (so that my Mother's computer can get a strong signal) I have another WAP54G that I believe receives its signal from the downstairs 54G.
In the back of the WRT310N, I have my computer connected via ethernet port 3, and my Xbox 360 connected via ethernet port 4.
Now, I first figured I just have so many connections tied to the router and that is the reason for being so slow. However, when I unplug all the other ethernet cords and nothing is connected wirelessly, except for my Xbox connected to ethernet port 4, it is still poor. Also, with everything connected (WAP54G and other devices wirelessly) I get on my PC and run a speedtest. For the sake of advice, my speedtests I am running on my PC are (after 5 tests) averagely 8.5 Mbps download, and 1.00 Mbps upload, with a ping of 82ms.
Here is an image of the results:
http://www.speedtest.net][IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/721106714.png
Let me add a little more detail of my (192.168.1.1) settings for WRT310N.
For starters, my Father's IT guy at his workplace set up this WRT310N and WAP54G's. So some of these settings may be his doing. I just don't know which.
"Setup" as Auto-configurations DHCP. I've added my Xbox's IP address to the DHCP reservation the IP of 192.168.1.104. This has (from what I've noticed) stayed the same for days.
MTU: Auto, which stays at 1500 when I check under status.
Advanced Routing: NAT routing enabled, Dynamic Routing disabled.
Security: Disabled SPI firewall, UNchecked these: Filter Anonymous Internet Requests, Multicast, and Internet NAT redirection.
VPN passthrough: All 3 options are enabled (IPSec, PPTP, L2TP)
Access Restrictions: None.
Applications and Gaming: Single port forwarding has no entries. Port Range Forwarding I have the ports 53 UDP/TCP, 88 UDP, 3074 UDP/TCP, and 80 TCP forwarded to IP 192.168.1.104 enabled. (192.168.1.104 is the IP for my xbox connected via ethernet wired that is in DHCP reserved list)
Port Range Triggering: It does not allow me to change anything in this page.
DMZ: I have it Enabled. This is where I am a bit confused. It says "Source IP Address" and it has me select either "Any IP address" or to put entries to the XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX to XXX fields. I have selected use any IP address. Then the source IP area, it says "Destination:" I can do either "IP address: 192.168.1.XXX" or "MAC address:" Also, under MAC Address, it says DHCP Client Table and I went there and saw my Xbox under the DHCP client list (It shows up only when the Xbox is on) and selected it.
Under QoS: WMM Enabled, No acknowledgement disabled.
Internet Access Priority: Enabled. Upstream Bandwith I set it to Manual and put 6000 Kbps. I had it set on Auto before, but I changed it. I have no idea what to put there so I just put a higher number.
Then I added for Internet Access Priority a Medium Priority for Ethernet Port 4 (the port my xbox is plugged into).
Administration: Management: Web utility access: I have checked HTTP, unchecked HTTPS.
Web utility access via Wireless: Enabled. Remote Access: Disabled.
UPnp: Enabled.
Allow Users to Configure: Enabled.
Allow users to Disable Internet Access: Enabled.
Under Diagnostics, when I try and Ping test 192.168.1.104 (xbox when on and connected to LIVE), I get:
PING 192.168.1.104 (192.168.1.104): 24 data bytes
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
--- 192.168.1.104 data statistics ---
5 Packets transmitted, 0 Packets received, 100% Packet loss
Also, when I do Traceroute Test for my Xbox's IP, I just keep getting:
traceroute to 192.168.1.104 (192.168.1.104), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
1 * * * 192.168.1.1 Request timed out.
2 * * * 192.168.1.1 Request timed out.
As for the Wireless Settings, it is all on the default settings with Wi-Fi Protected setup Enabled.
To add, I have tried connecting my modem directly to the Xbox and my connection is much improved. I have no difficulty getting the NAT open, for it seems my settings are working for that. Any help with these settings would be VERY much appreciated.

I own 2 of these routers (one is a spare) with the latest firmware and I have been having trouble with them for over a year. In my case the connection speed goes to a crawl and the only way to get it back is to disable the SPI firewall. Rebooting helps for a few minutes, but the problem returns. All of the other fixes recommended on these forums did not help. I found out the hard way that disabling the SPI Firewall also closes all open ports ignoring your port forwarding settings. If you have SPI Firewall disabled, you will never be able to ping your IP from an external address. Turn your SPI Firewall back on and test your Ping.

Help with Multiple libraries and one storage location for files

I cannot get an answer to this question anywhere and was really hoping that The [H] would be able to help.
Here is my current set up that allows my wife and I to have completely independent libraries and ratings, but use the same files:
-Shared folder with MP3s on a network drive.
-Two PCs, each with it's own Ipod associated to it with individual libraries but all pointing to the same network share for MP3 Files.
-Each PC is using the SAME Itunes account for downloads.
-Each account has it's own library folder also on a network share.
Now to my question(s)/problem with downloaded content:
(1) Is there any way to have a file that is downloaded from Itunes be automatically placed in a shared location accessible to both Libraries? (Say if I download the latest Jack Johnson album, can it automatically show up in my wife's library and vice versa?)
(2) Is there any way to share the album artwork versus having two copies of everything(one for each library)?
So my goal is to have two libraries with a central location for ALL files, including anything downloaded from Itunes by each individual user. Is this possible?

Have your wife transfer all purchases from the iPad into iTunes, backup her iPad and then sync with iTunes. Everything ... All media and other content will be available in that iTunes library and she will have a current backup.
Assuming that your son will still be sharing your wife's Apple ID (he is too young to have one of his own) .... When you set up his iPad, restore the iPad from your wife's backup and then select only the content that you want your son to have on his iPad in the iTunes library and then sync that iPad with iTunes.
The game progress is stored in the backup and should transfer onto his device when you restore from your wife's backup. You can always delete any content (apps, movies, music) that you don't want your son to have on the iPad, if you missed it when you synced with iTunes after setting the device up for him.
You can set your sync preferences - any way that you want to - for both devices and still use the same iTunes library for both iPads. So ... Yes you can sync any apps that you want to his iPad and any apps that your wife wants to her iPad. You just need to restore your son's iPad from your wife's backup in order to get his game progress onto his iPad.
In case you need these....
Transfer purchases.

Remember to have your wife backup her iPad just before you restore his iPad from the backup so that his most recent progress will be available in the backup.

Hi
I don't have a problem with the query that I know I've got to write , the problem is saving the tax clearance certificate and along side it , its the expiry date.
