How do I save a .tif in photoshop with transparency for FCP?

Hello,
Not long ago I was saving images from photoshop as .tif files with save transparency and everything worked fine in FCP. Now I get black where the transparency should be. Not sure what I changed in photoshop (or fcp), but it was as simple as saving the tif (not creating mask, etc) with the transparency before...help!

In Photoshop, make sure that the background layer is empty.  Save as a TIFF ... on the second 'save' screen, check the box for "Save Transparent Background" or "Save Transparency,"  depending on your version of Photoshop.

  • How to open/save heaps of PSDs-only with previews for LR?

    I have the following troublesome LR/PS scenario to deal with:
    Many of my old PSD files were not saved with max. comp. previews, and thus refuse to import in LR (a very annoying "feature"!) Hence, I need to create an Action or Script in PS CS2 which will:
    1. open ONLY my PSD files in all relevant folders and subfolders
    2. i.e., it must ignore all DNG, NEF and JPG files
    3. and it must save out the PSDs again without any alterations to embedded profiles (I have enabled the save-preview in the Prefs, which horribly bloats many of my already-huge PSD files)
    It seems like a trivial problem, which a simple Action could solve -- but I am unable to make my Action open only PSD files, as the Open command wrecks the Action. Yes, I tried if the Image Processor could do this, too, but was unable to make that work as needed. I had the bizarre idea of using Lightroom to globally rename the extensions of all JPGs to, say, XXX, and the DNGs to YYY, etc, to make PS become temporarily oblivious to them -- but it appears that the Rename function in LR is quite unwilling to rename extensions and/or put any other characters after the extension.
    Any bright ideas from you wise folks? :-)

    actually now I have a problem with catching Save Dialog event...
    here is my code:
    final JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    int returnVal = fc.showSaveDialog(ApplicationFrame.this);
    try
    System.out.println(returnVal + " return value ");
    if (returnVal == javax.swing.JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
    File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (file.getName());
    ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
    out.writeObject(myCanvas.getItems());
    out.close();
    myCanvas.repaint();
    catch(Exception ex)
    ex.printStackTrace();
    System.out.println("IO EXCEPTION :" + ex.getMessage());
    when I run it I get 0 ... it means it doesn't catch click on SAVE button... what am I doing wrong ???

    Thanks for your time and help in advance.

    Thanks for replying. I actually got it to work. I had my work set to 32 Bits/Channel in stead of 16 or 8. Once I changed it to 16bit/Channel, it gave me the option to save as either file. Thanks again.

  • How can I save a picture in Photoshop Elements that was emailed to me using Photoshop Elements?

    How can I save a picture in Photoshop Elements that was emailed to me using Photoshop Elements?

    Save the attachment in a folder.
    From the Organizer menu choose:
    File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders
    Navigate to your image and click Open.
      If the photo is embedded, make a copy or screen grab and then whilst it’s still held in memory open the Elements Editor.
    From the menu click:
    File >> New >> Image from clipboard
    Then use File >> Save As
    Then choose jpeg.

  • How do I save a picture in a lower resolution for the website

    How do I save a picture in a lower resolution for the website

    Check the App Store for apps that allow you to change the pixel dimensions of the photo. I use PhotoForge2 and it does a wonderful job of that by allowing you to move a slider to change the dimensions of the photo. Unfortunately Google purchased the company that made photoforge and it is no longer in the App Store. Thee are undoubtedly some other apps that will do what you want.

    Hello Tao,
    The parameter
       icm/HTTP/file_access_<xx>
    may help you to access the pictures without any db-access.
    The following two links may help you to understand the other possibilities as well.
    The threads are covering BSP, but it should be useful for WebDynpro as well.

  • Export to tif from Lightroom vs save as tif from Photoshop

    Photoshop 10.0.1, Lightroom 2.0, Windows XP
    Client wants tif format file. Exporting 34.9 Mb dng file from Lightroom generated 71.6 Mb tif file. File save from Photoshop generated 35.8 Mb tif file. Both saves without compression. Is there less information in the Photoshop generated file? Is one procedure better than the other? Thanks.

    You cannot save DNG files from photoshop. This is because DNG lacks the support for the features you need.

  • How do I save changes to a PDF with AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF?

    I am using C# and have created a regular Windows form. I have used COM and registered AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF. Here is my code;
    axAcroPDF1.LoadFile("myfile.pdf")
    axAcroPDF1.Show();
    MessageBox.Show("Showing...");
    This works fine. But, just like the browser, I cannot save changes to the PDF. I have the full version of Adobe Acrobat installed, Standard 8.0. I also have the Pro. version 7.1.0 on another PC. When I click save I just get prompted to save it locally, just like I was in the browser.
    If I edit these normally, just via Adobe Acrobat Standard, I can save my changes. I cannot do it via the AxAcroPDFLib library.
    How do I save changes to my adobe acrobat pdf file in my program? Thank you for any help. please.

    I did this after I wrote this. I have looked at the documentation but I can't find what I am looking for. Is there another way to open a file for viewing that has the full capabilities or using the normal program...one that uses something besides AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF. The sample that did have a view used AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF so it wasn't helpful. All I need is normal program functionality of adobe standard or profession within the application. The users have a full version installed on their PC.
    Thanks again.

  • HOw do I save a form once it is completed for future use in windows 7

    How do I save an adobe form once I have completed it for future use? I have windows 7 and the only option is to save a blank form.

    That could be caused by a couple of reasons.
    If it is an IRS form, they use a server side solution to enable forms so Reader users can save them. It's very expensive and word is that they have not updated this solution to work with the latest versions of Reader. So you would have to use the older version.
    With the new version of Acorbat, people can now enable forms so Reader users can save them (which is a much cheaper solution than the above scenario) but you need Adobe Reader 7 or better to use this function.

  • How do I save a style of paragraphs with a numbered list in Pages 05?

    I wish to save a style of paragraph with a numbered list. Is it possible to save them at the same time in Pages 5 as it was in Pages 09'?
    Where are the shortcuts?
    Thanks.

    Yes, I know but there is no real list preset. The format command, when opened, shows a menu and I think you are using the word Style differently. A Style in 09 allowed one to save present formatting for several text appearance options, which is no longer possible in 05 "styles." Styles in text edting for applications like Word, OpenOffice, iBooks, and Pages 09 referred to a way to save a set of formatting command together and apply them with one click. That's the rub here in 5.
    Yes, you can apply a bullet as a "style" to a paragraph, bui you cannot save that formatting as a preset in any way to do it in one click. The issue is consistency and one click capability for multiple formatting features for a paragraph of text.
    Separating bullets and lists from the ability to maintain them in the Paragraph style removed the one click paragraph formatting option which is helpful for anyone who uses it more than a few times in a document.
    The need is for people who want to use common formatting for paragraphs and maintain a one-click option to apply text, indent, spacing, and bullets in one click, not spread out in several menus and lists. 
    If you can explain how to do this in Pages 5 I will be very happy and you will have saved me many clicks. Otherwise I will continue to use the bullet "style" list drop down menu.

    If you have iWork applications (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), they can export documents / spreadsheets / presentations in formats compatible with Microsoft Office.

  • HT4623 How do we save a attachment which comes with the mail and where?

    IHow do we save a attachment which comes with the mail and where?

    What type of file is the attachment ? You first need an app on your iPad then supports the type of file that you want to save on the iPad - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app. If you have an app that supports the type of file that you want to save, then pressing and holding the attachment might (if the app supports it) give a popup with options to save ('open in') the attachment in your app.

    Thanks!

    You can't. Once it's been flattened, you can't unflatten it. Talk to your designer: he/she will most likely have the unflattened version available.
