How do I remove color noise?

I have an image saved as a psd file with a high amount of color noise resulting from shooting at a film speed of 800. I have created a layer for a face in the image and a layer for the inverse (the remainder of the image). Can I reduce this noise using a tool in PSE7? I have tried the color noise reduction filter on each layer, but it seems to have no effect despite my playing with the adjustment sliders. The ultimate print of this image will be about 16"x24".

Thanks for this solution... exactly what I am searching for...
many thanks again, cheers

  • How do I remove color from my tabs. There is no color plug-in shown on my plug-in list to disable.

    I want to remove the color on my tabs. There is no color add-on in my add-on list. However, in Cheevos for Firefox, there is a Tab Candy entry that is highlighted but no way of disabling it. How do you suggest I get rid of the Tab candy or the color tabs?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • How do I remove colors from the Tools Palette

    Hi,
    I recently defined two custom colors (blue and green) that were required for our brand representation (I am using Unstructured FM 8). I used the RGB values that Marketing provided to obtain these colors. For some reason, I now have the entire RGB blue and green libraries displayed in my Set Color option of the Tools Palette.
    Is there a way to remove these standard RGB libraries while keeping my custom color definitions?
    Thank you,
    Miruna

    the »Indexed color efficiencies« came from way back when the Net was a number of very thin electronic pipes connected to each other.
    You're replying to someone who recalls full page 300 dpi TIFFs taking 30 minutes just to display for text overlay in Frame 3.1.
    It is a long time I heard someone complaining about image files larger than 32k. but of course, FrameMaker should handle them OK!
    Frame handles large images with ease. I've generated PostScript files of 1GB. The issue is what size PDF they distill to.
    We render to PDF at the same resolutions for both publishing and web (200 dpi contone, 600 bitmap). Multiple dozen large images can easily make a final document PDF that is too large for practical web use. Our general rule is that if a single image adds more than 250 KB to the final PDF,  we take steps.
    I often have to deal with dense vector objects that are well over 5MB as raw  EPS. I routinely save a convenience browsing PDF of each image, and if it's over 250K, the image gets attention.
    For B&W line art, flattening to 600 dpi dithered bitmap in Photoshop usually suffices, but rasterizing to contone does not, because our workflow passes 600 dpi "bitmap", but subsamples "color" and "gray" to 200 dpi.
    I had this one vector-overload externally sourced image where I needed just a touch of one color. I was hoping that indexed color (e.g. GIF) might be the solution, but Distiller downsampled it anyway. Some of the indexed color tests, as I recall, but cannot now re-create, also polluted the color pallete.
    The work-around, in case anyone else has the same requirement (hi-res bitmap with color), was:
    Open the .ai file in PhotoShop, 600 dpi gray.
    Convert to bitmap, 600 dpi, diffusion dither.
    Save as .tif.
    Open the original .ai in Illustrator.
    Isolate the color elements to the top layer.
    Open the .tif bitmap in Illustrator.
    Copy the bitmap into a new bottom layer.
    Align the bitmap with the vector B&W layers of the same content.
    Turn off the vector B&W layers.
    Save the .ai.
    Flatten and save as .eps.
    This survives distiller, and provides a bitmap with color.
    Don't forget to redact the metadata. It can add MBs all by itself.

  • Using footage from my iPhone 4, how can I remove the black bars on the sides of my picture? Or change the color to white...

    My footage is vertical and there are two black bars on the side filling in the rest of the picture. I want to imbed this into PowerPoint without the black bars on the side. Any suggestions on how I can remove them or at least change the color to white? I changed the background color in View > Background > White, but it was only for editing purposes and didn't keep the color after rendering.

    To change the background to white, in FCE, place the video on track V2 and place a color matte generator on track V1.  The default color for the color matte is grey so you'll need to change it to white using the color picker.

  • Can you get your cracked iPod Touch screen repaired if you colored the top of it with highlighters? If you can't, how do I remove the highlighter?

    I cracked my iPod Touch screen at the top where the front camera is and colored the cracks in with highlighter. I want to know if I can still get it repaired even if its colored in? If I can't, how do I remove the highlighter?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

  • How do I remove cmyk profiles from a pdf. and keep it strictly 2 color process?

    My company is trying to outsource a booklet to an offset printing company. We are strictly digital printing, and I honestly have no experience with offset. In the past I would build the documents with the pantone colors that were needed in whatever software I was using to create it (Illustrator, Indesign), do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, and it would get done. The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process. The file is pointing to the correct spot colors, but it does still does contain the CMYK profiles, list I have no idea how to remove the CMYK profiles, I can convert them to RGB, but that doesnt help. How do I remove these profiles and make the PDF strictly use spot colors, or does this not make any sense, Honestly it doesn't to me.

    Honestly it does not to me either.
    You have a history of creating spot color files - but are using a new vendor...what I'm hearing from the vendor doesn't make sense
    ...do my checks and fixes in Acrobat and send it to the printer, ...
    Have you checked the PDF - verified that your Spot colors are Spots, not cmyk builds?
    The current printer is having an issue with the files that I'm giving him. He says, that the files contain CMYK profiles, and has to strictly be 2 color process.
    Communicate very clearly  - cmyk profiles or cmyk elements?
    To my limited knowledge, every file will have a profile - it's a moot element in spot color printing -

  • Vertical Color Lines on my imported file how can i remove and edit

    Vertical Color Lines on my imported file how can i remove and edit

    If you haven't used After Effects before, you should understand that posession of a template is NO guarantee of success without prior AE knowledge.  It appears you haven't used AE before.
    The color bars indicate a missing file, and your screen shot reveals no text layers. Looking at the precomp names, opening the one called, "edit text" might be useful.
    I will guess that the following would be even more useful:

    Without knowledge of the AE basics, templates are pretty much useless.

  • What causes vertical color lines on ipad2 and how do you remove them ?

    What causes vertical color lines on an IPad. And how do you remove them ?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    If still present: Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    Don't believe it's a factor, but you should update your iOS.
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Can anyone tell me how to remove 'moire-noise' in LR4

    Hey
    I might use a photo from an old brochure from 1971. I've used my scanner in 800 pix - so it's a 'heavy' pic, but I have a lot of 'moire-noise' in it. Can I remove this noise in LR4? - and if - how to do it?
    This image is only 1600 pix - the original is 4000x5408 pix.
    BRLars, Denmark

    In LR4, use the Brush tool, set the Moire slider to the right of 0. Or is it to the left of 0? (I haven't actually used this yet). Well, you can experiment, as the editing is non-destructive.

  • Using Mac, how do I remove the hiss (noise floor)?

    Using Mac, how do I remove the hiss (noise floor)?

    Hi!  Well, at the most simple, Audition has a noise reduction effect...try Effects/Noise Reduction/Restoration/Noise Reduction (Process).  Highlight a short section of your clip featuring just noise, not any sounds you want to keep.  Turn the amount of NR down on the sliders to, say, 20% and the Reduction to, say, 10dB, hit "Select Entire File" and Okay it.  If the noise is bad, you're best off to do several passes at low processing settings.  Turn up the FFT size (on the Advanced menu) and grab a new noise sample between each process.  FYI, the reason for doing it 3 or 4 times with small increments is that it results in a lot fewer unpleasant artefacts.
    However, as others have said, use of Noise Reduction should be a last ditch option, not a normal part of the process.  I have 3 different M Audio interfaces now and none give me enough noise to worry about.  As a first guess from your description I wonder if it's your microphone that's noisy and, if so, no amount of playing is likely to fix it...the noise goes up and down along with the programme material as you adjust the levels.
    So...a bit more info and maybe we can make some suggestions for you.

  • [solved] How to remove color from yaourt output?

    Hi everyone,
    I am having a problem with removing color output from yaourt.
    In order to get a list of installed packages in kdemod-core, I execute the following:
    yaourt -Qs ^kdemod | grep kdemod-core | awk '{print $1}' > kdefiles.txt
    Some time ago colored output was usually lost when piping commands. For some reason it is not removed anymore so that I get the following file content:
    [1;35mkdemod-core/[0m[0m[1mkdemod-kde-common
    [...] and so on
    Of course pacman doesn't understand this anymore:
    pacman -S `cat kdefiles.txt`
    Btw. The same options (-Qs ) with pacman search only locally installed packages.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    David

    pacman -Ss searches on-line.
    Thanks, but then I don't have the packages that are installed. It is of course much faster and without color but doesn't solve my problem.
    Then only thing I could find so far was a statement, that piping through less for example removes color for security reasons. That doesn't seem to be true any more.
    There is a col command which outputs plain text but there are still characters left.
