How to identify black and white images for dynamic collection ?

Hello
I would like to make a dynamic collection to quickly find my black & white pictures. It is very easy to do with your original files which have undergone a black and white (Grey) conversion under the developpement module : you have to specify "treatment - is - Grey level" in the dynamic collection description.
But what about original Grey levels images ? I have some scans of black and white negatives, and I would like to see them in the same collection.
I have tried to use EXIF metada, but none of them is related to this information (neither does IPTC). But such images are well detected as Grey levels images in the development module...
I don't know how to do (unless manually tagging images of course).
Does anybody have a clue for an automated solution ?
Thanks
Erwann

yes Eclipse 2.0 provides runtime chartting.
Please refer to this thread
[chartting|Re: Charts won't appear in CR Viewer?]
void AddChart(ReportClientDocument clientDoc, String chartTitle)
ChartDefinition chartDefinition = new ChartDefinition();
chartDefinition.setChartType(ChartType.group);
IDataDefinition dataDefinition = clientDoc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition();
Fields conditionFields = new Fields();
IField field = dataDefinition.getGroups().getGroup(0).getConditionField();
conditionFields.addElement(field);
chartDefinition.setConditionFields(conditionFields);
Fields dataFields = new Fields();
for (int i = 0; i < dataDefinition.getSummaryFields().size(); i++)
IField summaryField = dataDefinition.getSummaryFields().getField(i);
dataFields.addElement(summaryField);
chartDefinition.setDataFields(dataFields);
ChartObject chartObject = new ChartObject();
chartObject.setChartDefinition(chartDefinition);
ChartStyleType chartStyleType = ChartStyleType.pie;
AreaSectionKind chartPlacement = AreaSectionKind.pageHeader;
chartObject.getChartStyle().setType(chartStyleType);
chartObject.setChartReportArea(chartPlacement);
chartObject.getChartStyle().getTextOptions().setTitle(chartTitle);
chartObject.setHeight(5000);
chartObject.setWidth(5000);
chartObject.setTop(1000);
IArea reportHeaderArea = reportDefController.getReportDefinition().getReportHeaderArea();
Section chartSection =(Section)reportHeaderArea.getSections().getSection(0);
clientDoc.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(chartObject, chartSection, 1);
Further you can format the fields as per your requirement.
Hope this helps
Regards,
Tej

I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guess

I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guessing it's Illustrator's formatting but I don't know. How can I find out if Illustrator will open the file and allow alterations? The image opens only in Apple's Pages software?

rons,
It seems that all you have is a raster image, presumable PNG24 or JPEG, in RGB.
It may have been created as raster artwork in Photoshop, or it may have been created as vector artwork with the help of Illy, or as a mixture of vector and raster artwork in either application, or both combined.
If you just need to have a raster representation in black and white based on the current colour image, you may try this, in a new RGB document (View>Smart Guides are your friends):
1) File>Place the image (you may tick Link or untick and have it embedded);
2) Create a rectangle with black fill (R = G = B = 0), at least as large as the image, and place it behind the image (you may ClickDrag with the Rectangle Tool between opposite corners, then Ctrl/Cmd+X+B);
3) Select all and in the Transparnecy palette flyout click Make Opacity Mask with both Clip and Invert Mask ticked.

How can I create a black and white image similar to what I see in the "Replace Color" tool?

Hi all, I'm just wondering how I can create a black and white image similar to what I see in the preview window of the "Replace Color" tool. See attached screenshot for clarification -- I need the grass to be black while the soil is white or vice versa. Any tips?

One way is to use Select>Color Range
Make a new Color Fill Layer>White
(Layer>New Fill Layer>Solid Color)
Put a new color fill layer below>black
Just invert the layer mask on the top fill layer for the opposite effect.

PSE 8 coloring a black and white image

Okay, so I downloaded a free trial of PSE 8, so my experience with it is limited, which may contribute to my problem. I've watched tutorials on how to add color to a black and white photo using the paintbrush tool, though I haven't watched one for PSE 8.
I'll make a new layer, paint part of the picture, and then add another layer. But when I click a different color to paint with, it changes the color of what I already painted, even though I'm on a different layer.
Also when I tried to just save the image with one part painted, it didn't save it, and the image looked as it did originally.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi,
Are you using the right tool to paint on a layer?
For coloring a black and white image, you need to save different areas of your image on a different layer and then use either Paint brush or a Paint bucket tool.
It seems that you are selecting a wrong tool. For selecting Brush, press B.
Then try painting on one part of the image and then go to the the color swatch present at the end of the tools panel on the left as :
Now click on the foreground color swatch(on the top) to change the color with which you want to paint.This will not change the color of other layers on changing the color.

HOW TO PRINT BLACK AND WHITE ON HP PHOTOSMART 7510 USING MAC?

HAVING SOME PROBLEM TO PRINT BLACK AND WHITE WITH MY HP PHOTOSMART 7510. SPENDING MONEY BUYING EXPENSIVE COLOR INK BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT TO DO TO PRINT JUST BLACK AND WHITE PLEASE. I HABE A MAC OS X 10.10.4 THANK YOU.

Welcome , I would be happy to provide you with more information about printing with black only on the Photosmart 7510. First, here is how to make sure you are changing the black only settings; In the software program that you are trying to print from, click File, and then click Print. (or Command+P)I have put a red box around the drop down in the image below, from this menu you want to choose Paper Type/QualityIn the Paper Type/Quality tab, click Color Options, (usually you have to click the little arrow, again outlined in red on the image)If you want color printouts, make sure that Greyscale is selectedChange the Greyscale mode to Black Ink Only or Black Print Ink Cartridge OnlyClick Print to try the print job again. Next you might want to read about how your ink supplies are used; The following information is from this article; Ink Usage in Inkjet Printers - it discusses several aspects of ink usage with HP printers. Ink is used in a number of ways throughout the inkjet printing process. In general, ink in an ink cartridge is used for printing documents, photographs and other such materials. Some ink, however, must be used to maintain the health of the print head; some ink is residual; and some ink evaporates. HP offers two general inkjet print head designs: integrated into the ink cartridge (Integrated Print Head: IPH), and a long-life print head integrated into a printer which has Individual Ink Cartridges (IIC). Just so you know, your printer is an Individual Ink Cartridge (IIC) setup. Some color ink may be used when printing black text-or-graphicsThere are several circumstances when color ink may be used—primarily to improve print quality, and sometimes to improve printer reliability—even if the document appears to be only black text-and-graphics. Many HP printers utilize chemical interactions to improve the quality and permanence of plain paper black text-and-graphics by adding small amounts of color ink to certain black areas. Some dark images which look black may contain a combination of black and color inks. For black and white images and photos, a blend of colors called "composite black" may be used to achieve significantly better image quality and smoother gray tones than can be accomplished with black inks alone. Some inkjet printers utilize pigmented black ink, which is incompatible with some inkjet photo paper. In this case, dark or black areas are made up of color inks. Page yield testing is conducted with all cartridges (black and color) installed in the printer. For more information see Inkjet page yields . For users who wish to print utilizing just black ink (despite the reduced print quality), many HP printers offer options. For example, a driver color setting (by selecting "print in grayscale with the black cartridge only" in printing preferences) specifies printing using only black ink. In addition, many IPH printers can operate in "reserve mode," which allows the user to continue to print with just the black cartridge when the color cartridge is removed or not installed. In HP IIC systems, all supplies are required to be installed in the printer for the printer to function. So your IIC unit will use those colour inks to maintain itself, keep air out of the printhead and keep your print quality legible. Please let me know if these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help. I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks,

Convert photo to black and white excpet for reds

I have a photo and I would like to convert it to black and white except for the reds in the image. Is there a way of selecting a color range to be preserved and to convert the rest to black and white?
thanks

The problem is that the reds arnt just in one area.
Is there no way to select a color range?
I guess I could use the magic wand tool and set it off continuous while varying the tolerance, but this seems a but crude.

"warming up" a black and white image pse6

is there a way to change the tone of a black and white image to mimic the effect of using warm-tone photographic paper?

Mike,
I'm not sure what you mean by warm-tone photographic paper, but here are 2 methods I use to convert a picture to a sepia tone. They might work in your case.
For both methods, first convert the picture to RGB mode if not already so (Image>Mode>RGB Color).
Method 1
Add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. In the Hue/Saturation dialog window, check the Colorize box and play around with the 3 sliders. If the result is too harsh, try lowering the layer's Opacity.
Method 2
Set the background color to white (you can type "d" to set the default B&W colors). Use the Color Picker to set the foreground color to the tone you want.
Add a Gradient Map adjustment layer with the Color Blend Mode. In the Gradient Map window select the Foreground to Background option. If the result is too harsh, try lowering the layer's Opacity. You might also try changing the layer's Blend Mode to Multiply or Soft Light (or others) to get a slightly different look.

Black and white photos for an iPhoto Book

I've scanned many old black and white photos into iPhoto and would like to create books with them, but I read that iPhoto will not work with black and white photos for books, only color photos. Is that true and are there any suggestions for how to create a book using them? Thanks.

There is a bug affecting PPC Macs with iPhoto 6.0.5 and QuickTime 7.1.3 that causes it to crash with photos that have no color profile attatched. In addition, iPhoto 6 does not work well with Grayscale. So check these scans to see if they have no color profile or if the profile is grayscale. If so, you'll need to convert them to sRGB. They'll still be black & white, but they'll have a color profile that iPhoto 6 will accept.
Old Toad created an Automator application to embed the sRGB profile into your photos. Go to his Toad's Cellar and download the "Embed wRGB Color Profile 2" App. In Finder go in your Originals folder, then drop a roll folder containing these photos onto the app.

Before doing anything, you might want to try inserting some of those scans into a book template and see what happens. To see how a book will print when you order it from Apple, choose Print when you are viewing the book. Allow it to assemble the file. In the Print Dialog box, click the PDF button and select Save PDF from the drop-down menu. Minimize the iPhoto window to find a little box asking you to select a location for the saved PDF. [If you don't go looking for this window you'll be stuck waiting indefinitely.] View the PDF and see how those black & white scans look.

Inverted black and white images in iPhoto 6

After I recently upgraded to OS X 10.4.8, a number of black and white images in my iPhoto 6 library started showing up inverted (like negatives) when I open them. The thumbnails, however, are in regular black and white. This didn't happen using OS X 10.4.3. I can't seem to find a tool in iPhoto 6 to convert these images to the correct display. Do you have any explanations or suggestions?

Black and White Preview for all images Quick and Easy can it be done?

Before I switched to Mac, I used a google program to do my iphoto/aperture like editing called Picasa. Picasa allowed me to change my view to black and white so that all my images looked black and white until I changed my view back. This was GREAT for letting me look at a wedding or a group of images and quickly scan for the ones that looked spectacular in black and white as apposed to color.
I have been desperately trying to find a setting in Aperture that will allow me to do that so that I can get a super quick preview of everything and mark the ones that I want to really spend time converting to black and white.
Does anyone know how to do this? I would almost be willing to change my monitor settings to greyscale temporarily if that is even possible.

What I do is this:
In the View Menu set Proofing Profile to Gray Tone.
Then anytime you want to see things in B&W, hit ShiftOptP
(Pictures are only B&W in Viewer only mode--large or full screen. But you can use the arrow keys to move through a whole album)

How can I create a black and white table for Write BMP File.vi?

I just want to create a black and white array to create the picture in B'n W

You can use this VI, which outputs an 8-bit Greyscale Color Table.
Good luck,

How to get black and white effect in photos

Hi There,
I have always wondered how people get to add black and white effect in a photograph. Anyone with tips and/or videos to show how this is done?
Thanks in advance.

Start with a raw image for detail, you can adjust anything here especially shadow and highlight detail, the second button). You can then use the adjustment layer of black & white. Start with auto, but how pull the sliders around is different for each phot. If you still want to enhance certain areas I suggest color balance (under the black and white) for shad, mids, highlights.

Photoshop Black and White profile for printing

I'm a black and white photographer, so this issue is extremely important for me to resolve. I've been looking online and I have yet to find the answer, so I hope someone can help.
I need to know how to set up the black and White profiles in Photoshop for printing. The printer I have is a canon Pixma Pro 9000 a mark II
I need true black and white. Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions. If you need me to provide additional information let me know.

I frequently print black & white work on an Epson, using the Advanced black & white feature in the print driver.
A quick internet search found that there is something similar for Canon - Canon : PIXMA Manuals : Digital Photo Printing Guide : Black and White Printing
I print scanned grayscale files, and have the grayscale profile in PS set to Gamma 2.2.
If you are printing digital photos, they will be RGB, but that will probably not make any difference. But you have to read the documentation for the Canon to find out if it will. IOW - if the image should be Grayscale or RGB.
One very important thing when printing like this is to set the printer to manage colors (not PS) in the PS Print dialog.

Identifying black and white versus greyscale in PDF

Is there a way to identify from within a scanned PDF document (ie, something like a document property) that it was scanned as greyscale, black and white, or color? My company is using Acrobat 7.0. We have a requirement, for a variety of reasons, that PDFs for certain projects be provided as black and white scans only, but all too frequently we get them in greyscale or color. We need to be able to easily identify that a PDF is not black and white.
Thanks in advance!
