How do I import gradient map settings from one computer to another?

Question

Quick Question,
How do I import my gradient map settings from CS3 on my old I mac into my new Mac that uses CS6? Is there a folder somewhere that I can just copy and paste?
Thanks,
Mike

Answer 1

1
Start Adobe Photoshop CS3 and open an image from your files to which you want to apply a gradient map.
2
Select the "Image" menu, point to "Adjustments" and click on "Gradient Map" to open the "Gradient Map" dialog box.
3
Choose the gradient you want to use for the gradient map by clicking on the "Gradient Picker" drop-down box. Click on the gradient preset you want to use for the gradient mapping. You will see that in the background the gradient has been applied to your open image.
4
Click on the gradient fill that you have chosen to open the "Gradient Editor" if you want to edit the gradient preset. Make any changes in this dialog box and click the "OK" button to close the box and return to your gradient map.
5
Set any final options to apply to your gradient map. Check "Dither" under "Gradient Options" to add noise to smooth the bands of your gradient and/or "Reverse" to switch the direction of the gradient map.
6
Use the "OK" button to close the "Gradient Map" dialog box and return your image to which the gradient map is now applied.
Is that what you were asking?
Hope it helps.
