Importing selected files from Bridge into Photoshop stack?

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to run the "Load files into Stack" script from Bridge having selected your files in Bridge itself. There are work arounds but if this script can be run in this way it would save me alot of time.
Not sure if the script can be dropped into the a Bridge sub folder or whether or not Bridge can read jsx files? I do seem possible in the fact that some Photoshop scripts can be ran from Bridge but to my knowledge these are not jsx files.
Basically I just need that to run exactly the same way but be launched from Bridge into Photoshop with those selected files
Any help would be very appreciated.
Many thanks.

I am not exactly sure what you are asking, but I know you can create stacks in Bridge by simply selecting the desired files and pressing ctrl G on the PC (command G on MAC?) I believe there is a forum dedicated to Bridge scripting. You might have better luck there.

Importing files from Bridge into a stack in Photoshop

Hi guys,
Photoshop has a great function of loading files into a single stack, so as not to have many 10's of files to open. Bridge on the other hand allows for better viewing and navigation through folders etc. Just wondering if it was possible to select all the files you wanted open to a stack from bridge but these then to open in photoshop in a single psd file. It is possible to open all the files from Bridge then run the load in stack from the open files but then you have to close each file manually.
Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Sorry for any confusion. If you imagine using Bridge simply to select the images you want and highlighting them, nothing more, more nothing less. (because of better thumnail previews). These are now the images I want to perform the Photoshop "load files into Stack" script on. The only way this is possible is to the above mentioned, open hte files run the script and then close the files manually but as I have other files open can be very annoying going through them all. The other way is to write down the files names on a piece of paper and then find these files again through Photoshop/open, but as you can understand this is far too time consuming if you have 15-20 files to open at a time. This is basically because although you can choose the files in Bridge you cannot copy that selection to Photoshop. If this were possible it would also sort out the issue as I would have the correct files selected to run the script directky in Photoshop.
Hope this is a bit clearer.

Opening photo from bridge into photoshop converts to smart object

Instead of opening the psd-file normally from bridge into photoshop the file converts to smart object.
I used to work with CS3 where double-clicking in Bridge on a psd-file would open it in Photoshop. Now, when I double click in Bridge (CS6) it opens a "quick time pro" file, which I definitely don't want. When I use the right mouse to "place in Photoshop" it does so, but then automatically converts the file into a smart object, which I don't want either. What need I do to open a psd-file in Bridge as normal psd-file in Photoshop?
Thanks in advance for help.

Hi C. Pfaffenbichler
yes, there is a "Photoshop Document" in the list, but it has not
association. when I click on the little arrow on that line it "searches"
and shows all the files in the "program X86" on the C-drive. but I don't
know what to associate it with, or said differently, I don't know what file
in "programX86" to associate it with.

Can't Open ACR files from Bridge in Photoshop CC 2014

I Can't Open ACR files from Bridge in Photoshop CC 2014. I have uninstalled the programs, and all other versions of PS several times, but no matter what I do, I can't open a raw file I have opened in Bridge, in PS CC 2014. I have to click Open in Photoshop CC 2014 in Bridge.
Also, on my workstation PC (Win 7 64bit), if I don't open PS prior to opening Bridge, then when I try to open a file from bridge it says it can't run PS on an earlier Operating system than Win 7!
I have done exactly the same instalation on my notebook, same OS, and everything works perfectly - I just don't understand.

Guys! This question was asked almost two months ago, and still no-one has replied? I'm still stuck, no matter what I have tried, I cannot find a solution. And please don't ask me to re-install AGAIN, I've done this several times and it simply does not work.

Why can't I open raw files from 5diii into photoshop CS4?

My second shooter has the 5Diii, and I am having trouble opening her raw files into my bridge and photoshop (CS4). I am using a 5Dii. The files are named differently and I can't preview any of her files in Bridge and Photoshop will not load them. ?

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
The 5D Mark III was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw 6.7 (for CS5) and 7.1 (for CS6). ACR 6.7 is not compatible with CS4. CS4 is simply too old.
The 5D Mark II has been supported since ACR 5.2 which is compatible with CS4.
Your choices for the 5D Mark III:
Join the full Cloud
Join the Creative Cloud Photography Program (PS CC 2014 + LR)
Upgrade to CS6
Free option: Convert all 5D Mark III Raw files to DNGs using the free Adobe DNG converter then edit the DNGs in CS4

Open PSD files from Bridge to Photoshop CS6

In previous version I can open psd files to Photoshop with double clicks. Now it open to QuickTime only. How can I go back to the the old way? And I don't want to "place" the file to smart objerct either.
Please help.

Hi,
In Bridge cs6 look under the Bridge preferences (Ctrl+K or Cmd+K) and then under File Type Associations, where you can choose the applications to open files from bridge.

Why wont my psd files open from Bridge into Photoshop

When I try to double click on a psd file is Bridge, it opens in some other image viewer... not Photoshop. Under File>Open With, there are a number of
possibilities, but none of them are PS. There's Fire Fox, and Microsoft Mail and Painter X but not Photoshop. I can open Raw files but not Psd's or
jepgs... What could possibly be wrong. I cannot find a preferance I've marked incorrectly.

First, I have never made any changes to this area in Preferences. When I saw the suggestion to check file associations in Bridge Pref., I looked through the file asssociations and mostly I found listed 'none beside most types,' but beside Psd, Tiff, and Jpegs it said, "Explorer Settings." Why in the heck would that be there? I clicked on that and noticed I could direct a search through my computer for something else, so I when straight for Adobe and on to Photoshop Cs5, and clicked OK. After that, I could open the psd's in Photoshop and under File>Open With, PScs5 was listed now as the defautl... YEA!... But when I tried the same with jpegs, it didn't work. I put in PHcs5, but they are opening in Camera Raw. Now while I could want that option, I don't want that as a default. I'm totally perplexed as to how this could be happening. I've been using Bridge since it was first introduced into PS, and I've never had a problem like this. I hope someone who is more educated in this area will please shed some light on this for me.
I'm in an advanced Digital Imaging class, and I asked my all knowing teacher and she was confused as well.
Thanks. 7SUS

How can I import a .pdf from CorelDRAW into photoshop?

Hey,
I have a client who is sharing a CorelDRAW file with me, but I can't find a way to import it into Photoshop. I know Corel is for Vectors, and Photoshop is now, but I thought the .pdf format would be compatible... I managed to import one pdf, but the colours were very distorted. A larger file just wouldn't open at all.
Any help? I only have Photoshop, not Illustrator.
Thanks,
Alex

If you had Illustrator you could take advantage of smart objects.
Has been awhile since I worked in Corel (so do not remeber if Corel had clipboard settings whcih need adjusuting), but do remember copying a path, getting that into Phothshop as shape layer for part of the artowrk in a trade show poster.

Importing RAW files from iPad into Aperture

Hello,
While on the go, I used the camera connection kit to import some RAW files (.NEF from a Nikon D300s) into my iPad directly from the SD card. The files where correctly imported, they display perfectly in the iPad screen and I was surprised to see no lagging when zooming such big files.
Now the bad thing. When I got back home I tried to import such files into a new Aperture project. When I connect the iPad to my mac, although it takes some time, all the pictures are correctly displayed, but when I hit the import button, aperture keeps turning the task indicator wheel without ever importing a single picture! Cancelling the import task does not work and the only way to get Aperture to work again is by force quitting it.
Any ideas?
Ps.: all my software is updated and running the latest versions (Aperture 3, mac OS X 10.6.4, etc)
Message was edited by: andreambrosio

The reason why the iPad shows the images so quick is because it is not showing the actual raw data like Aperture does. Instead the iPad does the same as the camera does when showing the photo on your LCD. Each RAW file has an embedded JPG preview. The iPad (and your camera) show that preview image. There is no raw processing happening.
Not sure why copying or importing to Aperture causes you trouble. As soon as I plug my iPad into the USB to my PC it shows up as a folder. I can copy the files from there to my computer.

Can I import rw2 files (from GH3) into Ad. Prem. Pro?

Any way to do this?

No.
You will need to export them from Photoshop or Lightroom. Use JPG or PNG.
Look at it this way. Most RAW files (and I commend you for shooting RAW) require a little adjustment or they look flat. They are designed to just take in all of the information from the sensor, and that information needs to be filtered to give you a proper contrast, and maybe even exposure. Whites, blacks, shadows... All of these things need Photoshop or Lightroom.
Let's look at it another way. The RAW files from the GH3 are usually 4608X3072. That size JPG or PNG file can be handled by Premiere Pro, but is it something you really want to do? Well, if you are planning on panning all over the picture, then sure. But if you are going to scale the picture down to fit into a high definition video, perhaps 1920X1080, why make Premiere Pro do the work when Photoshop or Lightroom both do it better.
If you don't have Lightroom or Photoshop, there will be an release very soon where you can subscribe to both programs for a total of $9.99 per month for the pair. That is a huge savings. On the other hand, I think you can probably use Photoshop Elements and it still has a perpetual license. And I think Lightroom still does also.

How to import raw files from canon550D into PSE9 ?

I have just purchased PSE9. I have downloaded
Camera Raw 5.7 and 6.2 update and installed both...but still I cannot see/open my raw files from canon
550D - any suggestions...??

If you right click on one of your Canon CR2 files and choose open with PSE9 it should automatically open in camera raw; you then click open image to send into the Editor.
If not working, you may have inadvertently installed 5.7. I would suggest you try again with installing the latest plug-in which is 6.2, and follow the instructions carefully as you must only have one file in the camera raw plug-in folder. The links are for PSE8 but will work with PSE9
