For LR2 there was a LR plugin to do this, I think, although I have never used it:

How To Save Jpeg Copy As Action

Hi - how do I create an action that saves my open image as a jpeg copy in the same directory as the original? Rather than save as export I am doing a straight 'Save As...' and then selecting the jpeg option. When you do this the 'save as copy' is greyed out. If I 'Save As..' but before changing to jpeg, whilst it is a PSD file I can select 'save as copy', then select the jpeg option. Whilst the box is greyed out it is still ticked. However it still does not save as a copy, but overwrite the original.
Any clues? Using CS5.

Hi.
You can also use the keyboard shortcut Alt+Ctrl+S (save as copy) when recording the action to add copy to the name.
There's an obvious one I missed. This solves a problem lurking in the action. Duplicate preserves the original name (plus "copy"). But the Save dialog will open to the spot recorded in the action. Not the source document folder. You might have to navigate to the right folder. So in this statement,
The file should be saved to the same folder...
needs a small correction. Change "should" to "probably won't".
Using "Duplicate" severs the ties between the original document and the copy. Alt+Ctrl+S retains that link and the Save dialog opens the right folder. If your Save step isn't conditional, the new file will be named Original Name plus "copy.jpg". So the action gets really simple.
1. Ctrl+Alt+S. With Format set to Jpg.
Thanks, MTSTUNER.
Peace,

How to save jpeg email attachment to iphoto?

i'm an iphoto (and mac os x) newbie, and i can't figure out how to save a jpeg attachment that someone has sent me so the image shows up in iphoto. what is the easiest way to do this? i'm using apple mail and iphoto 6 on a macbook pro running os 10.4.5. although occasionally i'd like to save jpegs from my web-based hotmail account too. thanks
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.5)

The easiest way to do this in Mail is; next to the attachment field in Mail, you'll see Save & Slideshow. Use the Save pull down menu to "add to iPhoto" & the Slideshow is just what it says, it will do a slideshow of the photos in your email attachment.
I don't use Hotmail, but I'm sure all you do is click on the image, File>Save>Desktop. From there you can drag the image into iPhoto. Or simply drag the image from Hotmail to your Desktop or directly into iPhoto.
I hope that was helpful.

Lost original message. How do I set up Windows email on my new ipad so that I can create new emails?

I responded to the question that you can't seem to find. You have to use whatever email provider that you have .... Yahoo, Gmail, whoever you have,
Did you try adding your email account to the iPad in Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Add Account?
This may be helpful.

After you add your email account you can send and receive emails in the iPad Mail App.

How is the JPEG preview in a DNG used?

The thread at What is the use of preview JPEG embedded in DNG? says that the JPEG preview in a DNG file is not used by any Adobe program. The DNG Converter, version 8.4, says "JPEG previews speed display of rendered images." This statement is on the Preferences dialog.
Which is correct? Do Adobe programs such as Lightroom use the JPEG preview?
FWIW, I deleted the JPEG previews from my DNG files and I cannot detect any performance difference. I thought that Lightroom uses its own preview cache and that may be why I don't see any performance difference. Thanks.

They don't have to be full sized.
You should have also included the part I said after that: "if you'll want to make "near-raw" quality prints, or have it for future insurance etc." so, actually, in context, yes - they do!
Andrew Rodney wrote:
why have it update until you're finished editing?
To be clear: I was not suggesting it should be updated before you're finished editing it. Although xmp works in just that fashion, I would never opt to have it work that way personally.
My point was that you need to (know and) remember to do it or you'll have an unedited preview, or in any case a stale one, and since there is no "preview freshness" indicator or metadata item (correct me if I'm wrong about that part, but even exiftool can not determine if preview is up2date, right?), you really have to remember, or it won't be done (or complicate workflow with additional metadata to help govern..). Me? - I use publish services to export all such copies after completion - Lightroom remembers which ones need to be exported so I don't have to.
If you use DNG, perhaps a good feature request would be a DNG preview publishing service. I mean, all Lr is really doing is exporting a jpeg but instead of storing it as a separate file, embedding it in the dng, kinda just like xmp.. - that way you just publish your DNG previews along with the rest..

How to save JPEG files in PSE5.0 ?

OK. newby Q again. how the heck does one know what to choose when it comes to saving an image as a JPEG? the following three boxes pop up:
IMAGE OPTIONS:
QUALITY>
FORMAT OPTIONS:
BASELINE>
PROGRESSIVE>
SIZE:
up to 2 MBps?

Generally, if you're going to archive your photos as Jpegs, you would want to save them in as high a quality as possible. This would be with the slider all the way to the right or number "12".
Usually "Baseline standard" would be the way to go. This writes the photo in one pass to the screen.
"Progressive" writes the photo in 3 passes across the screen, and is usually used for uploading and viewing large files within a web page.
The "size" dialog box you're referring to, gives you the approximate time (in seconds) required to upload the photo with 56.6bps internet. (dial up) At least the time is referenced to dial up internet in PSE5. So the speed dialog box gives you this information, [1st]; size of photo (in KB) [2nd]; time to upload, (in seconds), [3rd], reference internet speed.
If you plan on re-editing your photos at a later date, you should consider saving in a lossless format. Both PSD and TIFF file formats support saving in layers, and don't "recompress" the file each time it's worked on. "PSD" is Photoshop's native format, so it could be argued that this would be the better of the two. Since a scanner in "lossless" mode would save in TIFF, Photoshop would need to convert those files to PSD. A jpeg file would be better suited to a photo in which the editing process has been finalized, and is heading to the printer, or perhaps Aunt Martha in an Email.
A final thought is that the quality you use to "jpeg" a file, and the file size itself, is largely purpose dependent. For example a photo that you intend to make public on "Flickr" should be down sized and and jpegged at medium quality. This in the event that the photo is downloaded, your work will not be at full resolution and quality, therefore limiting its usefulness to viewing only. In any event, a photo uploaded to the web absolutely should be a COPY, do not tamper with an original in the manner in which I've just described.

How to save jpeg files in iPhoto

I would like to be able to make changes in Photoshop and then be able quickly save a jpeg file in my iPhoto library (Version 9). From what I could deduce, the only way to do this would be to save the file to my hardrive, then go to iPhoto, choose the import to library under the File menu and then locate the file I want to import. Is that really the quickest and easiest way to do this? Or is it possible to save the file directly to the iPhoto library from within the Photoshop program?

Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note 1: screenshots are from PSE 10
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

How to save JPEG from PS5 with a different DPI?

I have a scanned image with DPI 4800.
I have prepared the image for the printing in LAB, so I have tried to change image DPI to 300.
In PSD file it works, the DPI was changed, but if I try to save the PSD as a JPEG file, the DPI in JPEG is not changed, or more precisely it is not set.
Thank you for explanation.

Why LAB? ...or do you mean "lab"?
How did you try to change the ppi?
If you have a PSD at 300ppi and Save As... a JPEG it should keep the 300 ppi. Don't use Save for Web.

Lost original photos/albums in iPhoto 2

Last week the photo albums in iPhoto vanished...when I was able to find them by stumbling around the hard drive they didn't contain original pix--only pointers to the original pix. In addition, I could never track down all of the originals to help put them back into iPhoto and start rebuilding albums.
Couple of questions:
1) Some of the original pix were never deleted but I can't find them. Why not?
2) I recently bought a Lacie drive to serve as a backup. How do I find the pictures on the backup? What folder are they in?

Ken:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. How did you perform the backup and with what software? Look/search on your external HD for a folder title "iPhoto Library". If you find it that may be your entire library. Open it up and see if it looks like this. Do not move anything around or rename anything (see Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder). If it is your library can copy it back to your Pictures folder, replacing the new, empty library there. Now open iPhoto and you should have your library back.
If you don't have your library intact you can do a Finder search of your external HD with the following criteria: Name contains .jpg and Size is greater than 50 KB. That will find all full sized image files on your external HD. You can tell where they are by clicking on one in the search results and checking out the path to the file.
Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.

How to save JPEGs with a clean matte?

From a cut-out image on a transparent background, I use Save for web specifying a black matte to create a JPEG. The resulting image has compression artefacts within the black matte around the image just the same as if the original image had a black background. I can then apply a mask channel copied from the orignal file to the JPEG and fill the matte with black. Delete the mask and Save and I have a JPEG with a matte free of artefacts.
Is there a simple way to achieve the same thing and what's the point of the matte option?

I am currently using .png files with transparent backgrounds and dropshadows. These are significantly larger (2x or 3x) than the equivalent .jpg files so the site loading time is also much longer but, of course, .jpgs don't allow transparency. My sites are in Flash which, via ActionScript, allows me to apply drop shadows at runtime to transparent images. It also allows me to create a transparent bitmap image from a .jpg by setting to transparent all pixels that have the matte colour. Unfortunately, as I described above, not all the pixels in the matte area will retain the matte colour because of the way the JPEG compression is done. As a result, the cut out image created by ActionScript will not have clean edges. I can fix this by the second operation on the .jpg I've described but this process is not easily automated in an Action and one site in particular involves a lot of images!

Well assuming you have a computer (since you need itunes anyways) you should save the picture on your computer from the email and then sync that picture to your iphone in itunes. It should then be in your iphone. From there it should be in your photo library.

How to save JPEG larger then 30.000px?

Hi everyone,
I'm new to Photoshop, so probably this is very or too basic for most of you. I just wonder what settings or option do I need to take, if I want to save my .PSB as a JPEG and want to avoid reducing the size down to 30.000px.
Actually I do not care if some editors won't be able to handle JPEGs larger then 30.000px.
I just want to produce one with 39.000px, and can't imagine PS won't allow me to do that.
So what's the trick?
Please help! Thank you!

According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG)
It supports a maximum image size of 65535×65535.
So it seems you are right that Adobe’s limit is not implicitly necessary for the format.
You could save a tif and open that in Preview (as you don’t state your OS I can just act as if you were a Mac-user) and save the jpg from there.
Unfortunately the 30.000-pixel-restriction seems to also apply in Photoshop when opening and Indesign when placing files, so you may not be able to use that jpg in an Adobe workflow.
Why do you want the image as a jpg anyway?
