How to make Photoshop save Aperture imported JPEG images as JPEGs

Recently, I upgraded from Photoshop CS 5 to CS 5.1.
My point and shoot cameras record in JPEG format. Often, I'll import those photos into Aperture and then tweak them in Photoshop using the Edit in External Editor command. My preferences for the external editor in Aperture were set to 8-bit, Photoshop
With Photoshop CS 5, I would edit the photo and choose Save and the edited photo would be saved back to Aperture as a new version, in a JPEG format.
Now, using Photoshop CS 5.1, when the imported image from Aperture is converted into a PSD file and when I save back to Aperture, I end up with a PSD file.
How can I revert to how it was before? JPEG image in Aperture, opened in external editor Photoshop as a JPEG, edited in Photoshop, then saved back to Aperture as a new version JPEG?
(Though this question is approached in this forum, a solution to my question is never found as each dicussion ends up going off-topic from the original question)

Any further ideas from anyone who's experienced trying to open a JPEG from Aperture in Photoshop as a JPEG?
Like I said before, you cannot open a jpeg as a jpeg, the file must be decompressed to open in PS or in Aperture, and that has always been the case.
I do not know how it used to work, but I tested and you are correct that with PS 12.1 and with Aperture 3.2.2 a JPEG sent to open in external editor (PS) is opened into your choice of lossless format and then goes back to Aperture in the lossless format you chose.
IMO this is the way it should be, because every save into JPEG loses image data, so such saves should be limited to the final export, in this case when the image actually leaves Aperture. If the file was compressed as a JPEG  when leaving PS, decompressed and edited in Aperture, then compressed again to export as JPEG from Aperture, unnecessary additional image data loss would occur.
It is always better to save the application of lossy compression until the very last step in a workflow because other usages (printing, for instance) may occur before applying the lossy compression.

  • How to make photoshop work like mspaint

    I know how dumb this sounds, but I could really use some help.
    I was trying to use CS3 to resize an image (a page of a book), but  photoshop would open it in bitmap only. After realizing how much the  image quality would drop when resizing in bitmap, I tried to make  photoshop open the picture in a different mode like RGB, but I couldn't  figure out how. (The only mode I could change to was Grayscale, but it  was as bad as bitmap)
    This has forced me to resize the picture in mspaint...
    Below is one of the pictures I was trying to shrink; its current size is  about 2500x3200 (38k). I hope someone could tell me how to resize these  kind of pictures in photoshop (I'd settle for mspaint if resizing were  the only thing I needed to do)

  • How to make photoshop paths visible in Illustrator

    I work with images from various manufacturers of construction equipment and need to be able to put a stroke around the images at times. I have images from one manufacturer that are eps files with paths and they work fine but I have another manufacturer who supplies the images as tif files with paths and they do not appear in illustrator. Is there some trick to importing the images so that the paths are usable. Do I need to ask this question in the Photoshop forum instead?

    >...eps files with paths
    >...tif files with paths
    I assume you are referring to clipping paths, which are created in Photoshop and saved with EPS and TIFF files.
    Unfortunately, Illustrator does not recognize clipping paths in TIFF files. Page layout (DTP) applications, such as InDesign and QuarkXpress, do recognize TIFF (as well as EPS) file clipping paths, but, alas, not Illustrator.
    If you receive TIFFs with embedded clipping paths, just open them in Photoshop and resave as EPS -- or, better yet, create the desired background transparency in Photoshop and save as PSD for placing into Illustrator.
    If you need to do things to the clipping path itself, such as stroking, you can do it in Photoshop or use Export | Paths to Illustrator. Note that the latter creates an .ai file containing only the path, nothing else. But you can combine that path with the original image within Illustrator, creating, if necessary, your own clipping mask.
    If you don't have Photoshop, have your supplier save as EPS (or TIFF or PSD)
    and export the paths. That will give you the greatest flexibility within Illustrator.

  • How to make Photoshop Interface Black or change color?

    Hey guys, i have been watching videos and looking at images lately and i have noticed how some peoples photoshop interfaces are black and ive tried to find out and i just cant seem to figure it out, if you could please help me and figure it out that would be great. Also, by interface i mean the space that i highlighted in photoshop in the picture below.

    The milkKeyK, Hello and Welcome!
    The only thing you can do seems to be patient, and to upgrade to the next version of Photoshop, according to R_Kelly's link...
    Besides the two sneak peeks videos, the others should not have been there: it is either a breach of one's NDA, or they are using pirated software.

  • How to make a round Slider with an image ?

    hello everybody,
    I'm back and i have a new question : how to make a round Slider (like a volume knob) with an image ?
    I see this very interisting tutorial : http://fxexperience.com/2012/01/fun-javafx-2-0-audio-player/ but it use a private class from com.sun.javafx.scene.control.skin.SkinBase...
    thank you for your answer.
    Gaëtan.

    I'm guessing you could subclass Slider to create a class SliderKnob.
    At some stage in the process, not sure where (perhaps after calling super in the constructor), you could look up the slider region's child thumbnail and track and call setVisible(false) and setManaged(false) on them, create an ImageView for your knob, add the knob ImageView to the slider's region and bind the ImageView's rotateProperty to the slider's valueProperty(). Not sure that that is any better than using the SkinBase stuff, but at least it is an alternative idea.
    Everything to create your own controls has not been added to the public API, so if you want to make your own controls in the same way the JavaFX does them (i.e. with Skin's and Behaviours and stuff like that) you have to make use of com.sun classes unless you can subclass and modify the workings of existing controls similar to what is proposed in the preceding paragraph.

  • How to make mouse click event to display image on 2D array?

    Hi! beginner programmer here looking for some guidance, hints and tips.
    I'm making a game of "Connect 4" and using a 2D array to display the board which is 7x6 in size.
    What i want to do is that when the player clicks on one of the squares, one of the 2 game pieces(red.png or yellow.png) will appear on the respective coordinates of the 2D array and check if the square in the first row is empty and if true, places/display
    the game piece, else it places the piece on the first empty square.
    Since i've never worked with WinForms or 2d arrays before i'm not sure how to initiate it.
    What i was considering in pseudocode was:
    pb_Mouseclick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    if(e.Button==MouseButtons.Left)
    Picturebox pb=(Picturebox)sender;
    clickLocation.X= e.Location.X + pb.Location.X, pieceArray[row];
    clickLocation.Y=e.Location.Y + pb.Location.Y, pieceArray[col];
    if(pieceArray[row, col] == null)
    if(player1.IsStarter==true) selectedimage(@"yellow.png")
    else
    selectedimage(@"red.png")
    else {
    bool empty= false;
    for(int row=0; row<height - 1; row++)
    for(int col=0; col<width; col++)
    if(pieceArray[row, col] ==null)
    empty=true;
    (Add gamepiece)
    This is what i've come up with so far, but it's just some theorycrafting, not sure if i should use a while-loop instead...
    Hope anyone can give me some insight on how to make it work and if the logic of my pseudocode is correct for what i want according to my earlier explanation.
    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi Gabbelino,
    I could not understand your game rule clearly, and could you make explanation for me?
    1.>> when the player clicks on one of the squares
    What were the squares? Did it like dice or anything else?
    2.>> one of the 2 game pieces(red.png or yellow.png) will appear on the respective coordinates of the 2D array
    What is the 2 game pieces? Could you show us the two pictures?
    3.>> check if the square in the first row is empty and if true, places/display the game piece, else it places the piece on the first empty square
    Could you show us where places/display the game piece?
    Best Regards,

  • How to make text stop wrapping around an image?

    Hello:
    I am using RoboHelp HTML 10 on Windows 7, generating PDF and webhelp.
    My project includes some images with text wrapping to the right of the image. I would like to allow a certain amount of the text to appear next to the image, then force the wrapping to stop at a specific sentence. I want the next paragraph to be aligned with the left margin instead of continuing to wrap around the image.
    This is the effect I want:
    I want paragraph A to appear next to the image, and paragaph B to be aligned with the left edge of the topic. It is OK for there to be some white space below paragraph A.
    Is there a way to make this happen?
    Regards,
    Juliette Curtis

    Thanks for the quick reply Peter.
    I was able to create an image style that makes the text wrap to the right of the image. However, I can't work out how to make the text stop wrapping in a specific place. This image shows what is happening:
    I want to allow paragraph A to appear to the right of the image and force B to appear below the image, as shown in the first image. The problem is that I don't know how to make B do what I want. Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks again for your help.

  • How to make a movieclip and import it to another fla file ?

    Hi,
    I am having one of those 'self doubt sanity' moments.
    Entering melt down here !
    I want to make a movieclip from a graphic map background, and some existing movieClips that reside in another .fla
    In this other .fla file the movieclips are in the wrong layer so by starting over I wish to tidy things up.
    How do I create a movie clip from such ?
    Then I start thinking, how does one create a movie clip, then bring it into another file ?
    I even did a test that went:-
    1) create new AS3 file
    2) draw a box
    3) select box and hit F8 Convert to symbol, select movieclip and name it box_movieclip
    4) d/click box and made a classic tween and had box moving across stage.
    5) save as and named file MovieClip_Boxtest.fla
    6) open new file AS3 and import to library the BoxTween.fla  and got a message saying One or more files not imported as problems reading them.
    So having done the above stages 1 to 5 which made a movieclip, how do I get that into another fla file ?
    having done this before I am panicking that I have lost some brain cells !
    Envirographics.

    When I want to move a movieclip from one fla to another I just right click it in the library and select copy.  Then I go to the library of the other fla, right click the library (off any other symbols) and select paste.

  • How to make photoshop go faster, faster!?

    Right now I'm using a Mac G5 dual 1.8hz PowerPC with 2GB RAM, PS 7.0. My typical files are 400 - 500mb and can have as many as 500-600 layers. Pixel dimension is 5400 x 3150 pixels and after opening my lower left shows 64.9m/1.42 G. It takes a long time to open one of these files- about 3-4 minutes and even longer to save, about 4-5 minutes. Also while the file is open zooming and panning can be choppy and slow, with the monitor lagging behind with the refresh. I can even hear the hard drive going when zooming sometimes. Question is how can I speed up the opening, zooming, saving? I have on order a new Mac Pro 2.93 quad core with 16gb RAM, PS CS4. What else should I put into this to speed everything up? Thanks!

    this is very helpful thank you.
    I'm putting in the maximum ram possible for this machine- 16GB. I don't know how to improve that.
    I see it is also important to have a dedicated scratch disc, with nothing else on it. Adobe even recommends using a RAID array for this, so you are really talking about at least 2 drives just for the scratch disc. I was wondering if you could use an SSD for the scratch disc, like an Intel X25-M 80GB? These drives have very fast read speeds, although the write speed is not as good.

  • How to make Photoshop square?

    I'm working on a project in which I've been asked to make a series of square (yes, square) screenshots of the whole of the Photoshop workspace (showing an image in different stages of development).  I have a wide screen display with a screen resolution of 1920x1200 and the publisher has suggested I may need to find a new screen resolution to achieve square, full-workspace covering screenshots.  But surely I do not need to change my screen resolution -  all I have to do is manually drag the Photoshop window around until its square and then manually screen grab that square window.  But - how can I tell when the hand moved Photoshop workspace window is truely square?    I can do it by eye but that's too hit and miss.
    Thanks for any help on this.

    Thank you very much.  I think you have got me to the finishing line.  These are what I now have:

  • How to make photoshop file recovery?

    Today Accidentally my photoshop has closed at that time I am working on my demo template work from last 2 months, so again I open my .psd file error prompt “could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop”.
    Several times I tried but it can’t open my .psd file. If anyone faces this type problem or has any solution to solve this I will be very thankful to you, of course its my two months hard work.

    You could try this: http://www.photoshop.recoverytoolbox.com/... Recovery Toolbox for Photoshop I haven't tried myself, yet, but you could give the free trial a spin and see what happens. I'd be curious to see the before and after if you do.
    or
    If you are using time machine it does a backup every couple hours, so you can get previous versions that way.
    As a habit I save my file with a different name every couple hours, just in case a file gets corrupted.
