I save as tiff, but ends up as micrsoft office document imaging file
Can anyone help me out there? I save an image as a tiff in CS2, but when I view the image details in the folder it reads as a
microsoft office document imaging file..
I have been saving as tiffs for years, but only recently has this started happening.
Thanks

Trying To Make PDF Presentation But End Up With A Normal Document?
I am trying to make a .pdf presentation with Photoshop CS3.
I follow all the instructions, select the time of each slide and the transition, but when I click on save I get a window asking me how I want to save the files and I end up with a normal .pdf document where I can view each picture manually or use the slideshow setting but no transitions appear.
Any ideas from this brief account of my actions, what I might be doing wrong?Thank you for the link Laurentiu. At about the same time as you posted it I discovered that if I used Adobe Reader I could get the slideshow presentation to work, at least partially.
I had been using Preview and of course it just displayed it as a .pdf document.
However, my problem is not completely solved.
When PS finished making the presentation I got a warning message that the preset used was not suitable for presentations and transitions between pages would not show.
Strangely, the transitions do display, but my selection of looping the slideshow does not work.
I wonder why and which preset should I use? -
Save a copy of an FM10 book with all documents, images, etc.
I was asked to update a FrameMaker 10 document but had no access to the original author or any information about the existing book. I have done so, but now many images and other elements are no longer needed and it is not clear how I can separate them out. Many other media applications offer the option to save a copy of an entire work and all of the elements it uses to a separate location, thus copying only those items that are actually used and leaving behind those that are obsoleted.
Is there a way to do this in FM10? I can't find one.
thanks!
Larry the Othanks, Mike, this looks like just what I need. I have yet to dabble in ExtendScript myself, but this may give me a good jumping-off point.
Klaus, your scripts look excellent, but I could never justify that kind of cost to my client, and I honestly don't do enough FrameMaker work (right now) to justify it for myself. Thanks for the pointer, though.
Much obliged, all!

Hi,
Latest LR 5.7 installed. I am printing with ImagePrint RIP which is accessed via "edit it" drop down under "Photo" menu selection. LR makes a tiff copy of the image every time I print appending -edit### [### is a number] each time. I have checked with ImagePrint support an they do not send anything back to LR, so LR must be doing some sort of an automatic save.
How can I stop this behavior that is clogging my archive?If there is a setting to avoid saving the tiff back in Lightroom, I cannot find it documented anywhere.
I understand that the external "editor" needs to have a tiff file to edit or in this case print, but each time I open the original .NEF file or even a tiff file to edit in the external editor, and additional copy is made in lightroom with another '-edit989' or whatever the next sequential number is, is also saved in the catalog. Thus you can have something like _A0009876-edit 734 - edit 735.tiff etc. accumulating.
There is no need to save these TIFFs. but I'll be darned if I can figure out how to avoid this issue.
Same also happens with SilverEFEX, IntensifyPro, etc. I can't find anyone else that has noticed this behavior so I am stumped. Any further ideas. -
How to save contents of JPanel to an image file
Hi,
I am using a JPanel to display some primitive shapes(line, circle,etc.) and I need to save the contents of this panel to disk as an image file (JPEG, bitmap, TIFF, etc.). Have searched jdc but've found no feasible results. I would really appreciate a sample code for this job.
Thanks in advance.
-BurakGot it ...i just forgot the 3rd line:
fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\majjooo.jpg");
JPEGImageEncoder enc = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(fos);
enc.encode(img);but am still having a problem is that the picture is black ...eventhough the panel has contents and i can see it but the picture has nothing but pitch black ...what do you think ?? -

How to remove save, cancel option when end user runs the workbook in Portal
Hi,
how to remove save, cancel option when end user runs the workbook and make some small changes like using page items or increasing rows and columns
I already made 2 changes
1) I removed the option in Oracle Enterprise Manager under discoverer viewer of saving
2) I also removed the option of Allow saving changes made in Viewer when adding workbook to portal
But still the end user gets options of saving when made small changes to workbook like increasing rows and columns
Is their any place, I need to make changes?
Thanks in Advance
RowdheerDon't use JSP to serve a binary file. It almost implies the use of awful scriptlets and the invocation of both the response writer and the response outputstream which would only lead to IllegalStateException headaches in the server logs.
Use a Servlet instead. Specify the file name as request parameter and let the servlet read the file and write it to the outputstream of the response. -
Hello, I have been going 'round in circles trying to decide whether to set my Lightroom external editing pref's for Photoshop as PSD or TIFF. I've very recently downloaded Photoshop - I'll be using it after I've done what I can in Lightroom, just for photo's - I've never used 'layers'
1) Can anyone advise which might be best - I read somewhere that PSD might be easier (or necessary) if I need to re-edit. I also read PSD could be a good idea as it would be easy to see which is the master edit, and which files have been saved as TIFF, for print say
2) I also read that you should never flatten a file, at least not until you need to (ie: save as TIFF for print) - any thoughts?
3) My thoughts (mixed up though they may be!) are to say edit layers etc in PS (either TIFF or PSD) then just press 'save', but not flatten layers (I understand the PSD or TIFF will then be alongside my original raw file back in Lightroom, as LR/PS automatically does this). Then say for print I would then 'save as' a TIFF (ie: for printing), or JPEG (ie: for web), and this would automatically flatten the file. If this is correct, say I started off with the un-flattened PSD for example, would I need to firstly make a copy of the PSD, or would just doing a 'save as' still keep the original PSD 'master file'? Also, after I say did a 'save as' for a TIFF, could I then just delete the TIFF and do another 'save as' if I wanted to do another print in the future, or better to just keep the TIFF in Lightroom alongside the raw, master PSD or TIFF / JPEG?
4) I won't be doing huge amounts in Photoshop, so would it be worth looking into using 'smart images / smart filters' - I'm just thinking that if document is not being flattened anyway would it be worthwhile?
Sorry about all the questions, but the more I read the more confused I become - I'm the sort of person who likes to know what they are doing before they do it if that makes sense (probably not!!)
Thanks, Roy
Message title was edited by: Brett NHere's my thoughts...
1. You are a bit confused and I wonder how you can determine a file is a PSD or a TIF by looking at it? Not all print drivers can recognize PSD's, but can recognize TIF ( this means almost all output devices can interpret TIF's no problem ). That said, PSD's can manage layers better than TIF's which add to file size each layer you include in the TIF.
2. Never say never. This all depends on the file's use. Layered TIFs can add complexity in which a print driver can or cannot deal with. As you work on an image, you may want to merge layers for whatever reason(s) and you always have the option to flatten whenever you feel like it. However, It is also a good idea to dupe the file as you move along. That means you always have a layered version to fall back on should you need to edit later on. I also Place transparent PSDs in Illustrator files with no problems. But, I save as EPS in Illustrator and when I do that, then the file is automatically flattened. This is perhaps what the internet was talking about.
3. Yes, see number 2 above. There's no such thing as automatic flattening of TIFFs. Again, this all depends on the printer and whether or not it can print while retaining original layers. Some do, some don't. Most of the time, I edit in PSD with layers intact. Then, when I prep the file for printing, I will save a copy as a flattened TIFF so the file streamlines through the RIP and Print process.
4. Makes no difference. Use 'em if you've got 'em.
Try to get some good resource material at a library or college bookstore or barnes & noble. Also, get Adobe's Print Publishing Guide. This is a good reference guide.

Trying to save a still from a QT video file
video plays OK and I can save a still but whatever settings I make in options it only saves as a pct file
is it possible to save as other file types such as TIFF?No, you will have to use another application, like GraphicConverter, to convert the pct file to a tiff or jpg.

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?
People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
So IMO we can divide image processing into:
operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

When I try to download applications such as Internet Explorer, Yugma, and iTunes in Firefox, I just get a window that says "save" or "cancel", but never one that says "run" so I don't think it's actually installing anything. It shows up in a "download" window, then the icon shows up on my desktop. When I click on it to launch it, it says "open with" and I get the same "save/cancel" window. It's a continuous circle. What am I doing wrong??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)What application are you choosing to open the files with?
Because of how integrated it is with windows IE should work. If it's not working, something more widespread could be wrong with your computer that would also prevent other browsers from working properly. Of course we'd love you to stick with Firefox, but you should get help with IE, too. -
I edit my RAW photos in Photoschop CS3, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto 11. If I add text in Photoshop I can't save as jpeg but as psd. Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?
Terence Devlin wrote:
Yes you can. But you need to flatten it as jpeg doesn't support layers.
While the final JPEG can't have layers, it is not necessary to flatten the original Photoshop file to create a JPEG. There are two ways to make a JPEG while not losing the flexibility of preserving layers, and they both flatten on the fly while saving.
I just tried this in Photoshop CS3 myself. When I add a text layer, and choose Save, the Save As dialog box comes up and defaults to PSD as was described. But... that is just the default! Go ahead and choose JPEG from the Format pop-up menu down below the file list. JPEG is in there. So what happens to the layers? Notice when you choose JPEG, the Layers box grays out and the "As A Copy" box grays out and is checked (i.e. you cannot uncheck it). What is going on here is Photoshop will gladly make a JPEG of your layered file, but it will force the JPEG to be a copy, so as to not overwrite the original layered file. This is good, because your Photoshop file with its editable text layer is preserved, and you get a JPEG copy to put in iPhoto.
The second way is, instead of doing Save or Save As, choose File/Save for Web and Devices. This will also give you a JPEG choice, and also create an exported copy. Because this way makes files for the Web, they will be smaller than JPEGs from Save As because they will lack built-in previews (which you don't really need these days) and other extra metadata that take up space.
Either way you get a JPEG you can toss back into iPhoto.

Only by exporting.
The Export menu in Photoshop CS3 does not have any direct choices for JPEG. -
MS Word Save As PDF - large files error saves the day, but I can't duplicate it
I saved a large MS Word 2007 file as a PDF and a message came up saying that this would take a long time and that it would be faster if I saved the file without all of the accessibility features. The message asked if I wanted to do this, I said yes and the resulting file was perfect! Yes, PERFECT! All of the fonts were fine, the table of contents worked (you could click on the headings and be taken to the right section) and the file size was 5 times smaller than the original word file.
This happened twice in a row. Then, on my last MS Word document, it did not and the resulting PDF file was 10 times larger than the MS Word file. I tried to turn the accessibility option off, but this didn't help. I turned the bit-mapped fonts off, which helped in file size, but ruined the look of the document. I tried printing to a PDF, which helped on file size, but the table of contents didn't work.
How can I get this message to reappear or what settings can I change to get this to work (i.e. to get a 3 MB MS Word file saved as a 1 MB PDF file with the right fonts and a working table of contents)? I know Adobe Reader can do it.I have Adobe Acrobat 8.0 and Reader 8.0. In MS Word 2007, if I click Save As, I can select the file type as PDF. I do not know which program is allowing this (Word, Acrobat or Reader). When I select PDF, my Save As window changes slightly, giving me options, such as saving in Standard or Minimum size formatting (and no, minimum size formatting doesn't perform the way I need it to). I can also click on an Options button, which is where I can choose to remove the accessibility options as I mentioned previously.
So, sorry, I didn't know that Reader was not the program performing this. It must be Acrobat.
I'll rephrase my statement: I know a program that I'm using at the time I save a Word 2007 file as a PDF has the capability to save a PDF exactly as I need it. -
Huge file size with Save for Web but preview is ok
Hi,
I have googled but not found anything about this but I have the same problem on my computer and also on a colleagues computer so it seems it should not be totally unknown.
This is what i do
1 Open a eps file, one color logo, 72dpi, size it to 110x21
2 save for web
3 select png-24 format. preview says file size ~1.3 kB
4 save -> actual file size on disk is 4 kB (ie 3 times bigger file size than it should be)
5 Preview and then right click in browser + save image as gives correct file size (on my colleagues computer this does not work, he always gets the wrong size)
I have also tried with gif and various settings, image sizes etc and the result is the same.
I'm using Windows Vista 32-bit and Photoshop CS4.
Is this a known problem?
ThanksThanks for your reply but i don't think that's it. When I check properties on the file in Windows it tells both "Size" and "Size on disk", where the latter is actual size on disk (depending on cluster size) but the size I am talking about is the first one.
Also just to be clear, when I say Preview, I mean clicking the Preview button that opens the file in a browser window. Not the preview within the Save for Web and Devices dialog. So I think this file is correctly created and *should* be the same as if I click Save (but it obviously isn't)
This sounds very much like a bug to me, anyone else who have seen this or can recreate?
Thanks -
Just upgraded to Mavericks. Now I cannot access scans from my hp scanner. After it complete the scans and I try to save as tiff, jpeg or pdf I get a either a grey blur or a message that says cannot save because the file cannot be written to. I did not have any problems before the upgrade. I would greatly appreciate any light shed on this.
Go to the HP site and look for drivers for your scanner. It apparently needs an updated driver to work with Mavericks.
