JS CS2/3, Win XP - Image Size

Hi all,
I place a huge number of images supplied from a client to a catalogue, Some of these images supplied, while they show up as 300 pixels/inch, are actualy low res images that have simply been modified to show up as 300 pixels/inch.
When I place these images I place them in small place holder frames and hence it is not very obvious that these are in fact low res images.
Is there any way where I can identify these sort of files via a script?
Regards
Norbert

(CS3--possibly also CS2) Images of any bitmap file format have two resolution properties: effectivePpi -- "The resolution of a graphic after it has been resized" and actualPpi -- "The native resolution of a placed graphic."
But ...
>[...] modified to show up as 300 pixels/inch
If the files have been resampled to 300 dpi, that's the number that'll pop up in the two properties. A script cannot check if a file has been upsampled.

  • IE incompatible ? Image size.

    Hi,
    I know very little about HTML, CSS and the like but as a photographer I upload gallery webs all the time for clients etc. I generate these in PS CS2 or iView MediaPro and then upload to my server (shared web hosting).
    With a current project requiring a 'site' type environment I decided to try iWeb. Before visiting this site please note that due to image sizes with iWeb it's a bit on the heavy side and if you're using IE on a PC BEWARE of crashes! Safari may even crash as has done with me.
    http://www.kura-images.com/camping
    Remarks and problems :
    1. As you can see my site does not resemble any iWeb template - using the 'modern' template I basically threw everything away and designed from scratch. It's a great WYSIWYG appli in that sense - no code - just drag and drop, resize, add some effects etc. I published regulary to a folder as a way of double checking but was impressed with the 100% WYSIWYG capability of iWeb
    2. Image size is a MAJOR problem. My concerns are specifically with the gallery pages generated from the photo page temps. Thumbnails at 16ko is too big and the motor that generates the large image files uses a single parameter (800pixels largest dimension) that cannot be changed in any pref settings etc. It also uses a compression factor which is a tad too high. Using Image Ready or the PS gallery web function (driven by Image Ready) I can get as good visual quality for my web-optimised JPEGS for 65% of the file size.
    Note : I tried this file swap as a test
    I changed one image in the folder for the "activités" page (activities_008) - I made a smaller thumbnail in ImageReady and created a 600pixel version of the large file; I replaced the images in the folder with these and checked the site. The thumb appears no problem in a smaller size (btw 6ko vs 16ko - that's a big diff when you apply it to 250 images !). SlideshowJS however has instructions to open the image at main size as determined by the slideshow index file creation generated by iWeb. And that's written as 800pixels. So on opening the 600 pixel image I'd replaced, slideshowJS opened it to 800pixels (not pretty). The only way to rectify that was to go into the source code in the relevant 'activités' js file, find the codeline for the image 008 and change the values manually. And I'd have to do that with 250 line of code ! That rather defeats the prupose of having a nice easy application to produce your galleries.
    3. Upload to my server via Transmit was trouble-free. No problems publishing to a non .mac server.
    4. Problem with the page titles. The names you give to pages determines the URL. Any spaces means you get the %20 thing and if, like me, you're writing in French the accents mean that iWeb has to get around the problem in a different, and not very practical, way. iWeb creates a random character line as a name, and uses that as the URL for pages where accents appear in the title. When the assets and index page are published those long character names appear on the index file and folder.
    I also think that may lead to compatability issues with certain servers.
    5. But here's the BIG PROBLEM !
    I had 4 people with PC's and IE (God bless 'em) check out the site. 2 reported repeated crashes of IE (unexpectedly quit exe. error). No problems with the homepage - just when clicking on some of the photo pages. What is really strange is that neither had problems when accessing the 'La Soirée' page, but both had problems with all the others. Apparently the crash came after IE tried to load the page, succeeded in loading a few thumbnails and then stopped and crashed 5-10secs later.
    6. EVEN WORSE !
    I have gone back to my site several times, emptying Safari cache each time, and have succeded in stalling definitively Safari's attempts to load certain pages. Just stops with partial page upload. I then have to quit Safari and re-open to be able to access any web page (even other sites). Sometimes it's OK, sometimes not.
    This site goes officially live on wednesday morning but for now it's a no-goer. Just too erratic and not IE compatible.
    PLEASE, any suggestions ?
    Many thanks in advance

    Yes, it is best to avoid spaces and accents and special characters if you can. If you must have them in your navigation links, then don't use the iWeb nav bar. Instead give your pages very short simple names with the Inspector, uncheck the box for "include in nav bar," and just create ordinary hyperlinks for page navigation. I don't know if this will help with IE compatibility, but it can't hurt.

  • Increasing Image Size

    Hi, as an Aperture newbie I am looking for a way to resize images in Aperture. Ie, the equivalent to Photoshop CS2's 'Image>Image Size', which allows me to, for example, just increase the pixels per inch of an image. For example I have been doing this to some old 72 pixels per inch photos I have been using for an iPhoto photobook (before I got Aperture) as the lower resolution version was causing the photobook to have an exclamation mark over the image (warning - too low size / resolution)
    Sorry if this seems a bit garbled, but I do not know the correct terminology, all I do know is that if I increase the pixel count to, say 150 per inch, iPhoto's books are happy with the images
    Any advice appreciated - thanks

    I presume Elements, like full-blown Photoshop, has no real organisational ability at all (as far as I can see). Basically you load, work on and re-save one photo at a time, to whatever folder you want the result in.
    I do find annoyances in Aperture, but what I like is the versioning aspect of it when changes are made to a photo. There's no need to create an adjustment layer, or duplicate an image before work in order to retain the original.
    I know Steve Jobs has this paranoia about things looking clean and minimising buttons (just look at a Mac remote control or the iPhone) but sometimes function really is more important than form. Compared to Photoshop there's MASSES of stuff that's missing from Aperture.
    I don't expect to ever be able to add a 'plastic wrap' effect (for example) to an image in Aperture but the resize thing seems a no-brainer to me.

  • How set image size open raw file?

    How to set image size/resolution when opening a raw file in pse 11 editor??
    win 7 pro; pse 11 settings: edit>preferences>print resolution = 337.596, screen resolution 109 dpi( 27 inch, dell U 2711). Originally print resoltuion was set to 240 dpi  but was changed in case this was causeing a problem. CRAW v 7.4.0.137
    Camera alpha 65, image size is: 6000x3376 dpi; (83.33x46.88 inch)
    Problem is: Currently when I edit a RAW file in CRAW and then open in pse editor image size is: 6000x3376 px; 25x14.667 inches at 240 dpi ( by ration this corresponds to:17.773x10 inch at 337.6 dpi)
    I am trying to change settings so the raw file opens as: 17.776x10 and anywhere from240 to 337.6 dpi
    whatever works or is esiest to set.
    My settings are for use in creating blue ray dvd movies and with cropping and editing printing high quality pictures for family.
    Thanks  in advance for any help you can provide.

    That's a Sony Alpha SLT-A65?
    Are those pixel dimensions of 6000 x 3376 the size the camera raw files came out of the camera?
    You can't really change the resolution that the photoshop elements version of camera raw opens the the files into the pse 11 at.
    (i think 240 is the default for most cameras)
    You can however set the resolution with Image>Resize>Image Size if you need to for printing or other uses.
    In the Image size dialog uncheck Resample Image and enter the resolution.

  • RAW image size

    With Adobe Camera RAW in Photoshop CS2 I can choose what size I want to open an image at from my Canon EOS 1D MKII. This produces a 72Mb file at the highest setting (8-bit).
    When I have the same image in Aperture and select edit in external editor, the largest size it produces is 19.8Mb.
    Is there a way to get Aperture to out-put the larger files?
    Is the Camera RAW size achieved using re-size, adding in data that never existed?

    david
    if i understand your question correctly are you preparing photos to hand over to a graphic artist or a client for their use in brochures etc.
    of course a graphic artist will always ask for the highest possible resolution. however do not up-size photos at your end. also it is not a good idea to deliver the actual raw file itself (as you as the photographer should be in control of how the raw-fine tuning is set). the best bet is to send the client a tiff file in 16 bit and let the graphic artist decide if he has to up- or downscale it for whatever they use it for.
    also - while everything is printed in cmyk - do not convert your images to cmyk, leave it in your native RGB and let also the graphic artist do this. he knows the exact print details, paper/stock, the printer itself etc etc.
    oh - and if you deliver to a client that has no clue, your best bet is to send him a jpg in original camera resolution. to make sure the colours render correctly at his end, you are best of to convert it to srgb and 8 bit and save it as a jpg.
    if for whatever reasons the client demands a specific size that is way higher than your native shot (such as for gigantic posters, wallpapers etc), you can use photoshop to a certain degree, however depending on the final size you might want to have a look into specific tools and ps plug-ins that handle up-sizing much better. having said that, this is only for extreme situations, in normal cases, deliver the camera native resolution.
    i am a graphic designer myself and while i always ask for the highest resolution, i always mean "at the highest SHOT/native resolution of the camera", not an upscaled version. and i hate it if files are blown-up and in the last minute we have to scale them back down because our client changes his mind. in such cases, the image will loose in quality (again). much better to always start from the native pixels at our end.
    hope this helped.
    cheers from australia!

  • Transparent border appears when I use Image Size to shrink an image (bug)

    In CS2 (9.0.2) and CS3 (10.0.1), whenever I shrink an image using Image Size, my layers get a slightly transparent edge. As a game developer, I make tiling textures a lot, and this generally ruins their tiling-ness.
    Try this:
    - create a 32x32 image, make it white
    - add a layer, fill it with black
    - shrink it to 16x16 or 20x20, using any of the Bicubic resampling methods
    - notice that the edge pixels of the black layer are slightly transparent. This is most noticeable in the corners of the image.
    Is there a better place for me to report this bug? I haven't found one.

    Haha, you mean it's a bug in the spec rather than a bug in the implementation? (Unless there is actually a reason someone would want it to work that way.)
    Yeah Bilinear and Nearest Neighbor both avoid the problem, but of course the image doesn't look as good.
    I work around it by duplicating all my layers before shrinking. The problem is obvious (in-game) with only one layer, but still subtle enough that it's usually invisible after duplicating. Annoying, but it works.

  • Question about images....Image Size ... Augh!!!

    I am curious about importing images into FCP. I understand that pixels in an image are square and that in video they are rectangular. When I import an image into FCP it looks great, until I export and then they take on a "fatter" look. I know that when you import an image as a Multi-layered Photoshop document that FCP will automatically adjust for it. But if you import a .TIFF, .PNG, or .JPEG that you will need to compensate for it's image size prior to importing.. (which is quite confusing)... I come across images of all ppi, resolution, and size.
    Two things I have discovered.... If I import it as a Multilayered Photoshop file and then export it, I seem to lose quality. But if I import it without compensating for image size(it looks better within FCP) and then export it using Compressor with a DV NTSC 4:3 setting, it looks fairly dead on and the image maintains it's high quality.... but I know this is not the way to do it.
    So here is my questions...
    1) What am I doing wrong? Is there a simple formula to get it correct everytime?
    2) Is there anyway that FCP can compensate for pixel changes on a single layer image or do I need to convert each image to a Photoshop Multilayer Document? Why am I losing quality?
    3) Is there anyway to import single layer images and have Compressor export it how I see it on my computer monitor?
    Thanks for any help....!

  • Photoshop cropping to correct image size for SP

    Ok, this is my first attempt for support here. I've looked quite a bit at other questions that might be similar but can't seem to find my answer.
    I'm trying to prepare about 150 pictures in photoshop for a gift DVD presentation. Unfortunately most of the shots are portrait and of course the screens are landscape. I'm wondering if there's a way I can crop these pictures before bringing them over to SP? In the photoshop cropping option I don't get pixels but rather inches. I've learned on the forums that I should try and have my pictures set at 720 X 534 at 72. However in the "image size" option of photoshop when I change the height pixels it automatically changes my previously set width pixels which I has set at 720. AND, what it an even greater concern is that the image size option just makes my pictures smaller but does no cropping. I'd sure like to decide where all these portrait pictures get cropped myself rather than having SP I guess automatically cut them to size to fit the screen.
    Appreciate any assistance. I'm using CS3 and SP4

    You will need to scale them and then drop them into a proper template (there should be DV menu templates with CS3, have not got my copy yet, but CS2 had them - should be there when you select File->New)
    Take a look at the action and title safe lines also in the template, you are going to want all the photos to be inside the small area.
    In order to see what you want to see from the pictures you will need to adjust each one.

  • New Image Size and Resolution in CC

    Hi there.
    Ok, maybe i'm missing something, but how do i reduce the ppi's of a given image in the Photoshop CC? Changing it in the image size, in the Resolution field, it acomplish nothing. It logs an entry in the History panel, but nothing changes in the picture. Did Adobe changed how this works, or it's just a bug?
    Thank you.

    Try setting to real-world measurement, like inches or cm.
    Hi Charles, i think that change in cm/mm/in it's the only way to change the image ppi (in my case save/resample it to 108ppi). Can you confirm that this is correct?
    Anyway when i go to image size (new panel of CC) the w/h are:
    1) grey and always set in pixel with resample flagged.
    2) always set in inches with resample NON-flagged (also if my ruler unit is in Pixel).
    (and actually that is not new behavior. CS6 behaved same way when width and height were set to percent)
    In CS6 and CC i never seen w/h in percent  - where is my error?
    Many thanks!

  • Save Image size setting in Save for Web

    I'm using Save for Web (CS3) and scaling the file to different sizes with "scale image". I'm wanting to use the same scale settings for many images but when I save the pre-set the image size settings don't get saved. I'm wanting to use it as part of an action but the setting wont stick. Any suggestions? Alternative work flows?

    That's never been saved as part of the S4W presets. Bloody annoying.

  • How do I set the image size in PS touch to print to my Epson printer w ithout losing any of the picture. PS Touch appears to be showing pixels and not inches, how can I covert it toshow inches?

    I am using PS Touch from my tablet . I am importinga photo from an SD card . When all editing is completed I then send it wireless from the tablet  via Epson I print to the printer. It all works great except that part of the photo at each end is cut off and does not print. I am printing on 8.5 x11 paper.
    How do I convert the image size in PSTouch frm pixels to inches?

    Epson's iPrint has always been an oddball. It will always "zoom in" on an image to print even if you have the proper dimensions and resolution set for actual print size. I think other users have reported this, at least on Android.
    You can't have PS Touch show inches instead of pixels at this time but you can use an online website to find out what you need to fit within a particular resolution. (Google "pixels to inches calculator".)

  • Since downloading the 2013 Keynote upgrade, the slide image size on handouts with 3 slides per page option is very small. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping 3 slides per page   lines?

    With the new Keynote upgrade (version 6.1), the slide image size on handouts is very small, which makes it difficult to read slide content when compiling lecture notes for students. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping to a format of 3 slides per page with lines?

    A number of posts have reported the same issue, two workarounds:
    1
    check the paper handling options or equivalent in your print dialogue box and set to scale to fit
    2 
    in the Keynote option, in the dropdown menu in the Print section, select Individual Slides
    then choose Layout, and set the number of pages, when printed you will have multiple pages on a single sheet.

  • How can you find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas

    This is probably a really really simple question but I can't for the life of me find how I can find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas. eg I have 3 photos i want to arrange 1 large and the other two next to it half the size. How can I edit individual image size on the canvas as when I select the image on a sperate layer I want to resize it just resizes the entire canvas and not the individual image
    Thanks

    I want to know they exact dimensions though. You can get them by dragging to the 0,0 corner and then reading off of the ruler scale on the sides but its fiddily as you have to zoom right in and work it out. I know in photoshop there is a ruler but is there any other way in Elements?

  • How to set image size in a table view

    Hi,
    I've just built a small VC application showing some process chain logs in a table view. For the different status types Error, Warning and Success I show the well-known traffic light icons. But up to now I haven't found out how to set the image size in a table view (height & width field is greyed out for the table). Any ideas? Or is it just not possible?

    Hello Heiko,
    I don't know, if it is possible, but I would say,
    it's not implemented yet. Maybe you can change the picture size and use then the pictures, that might be a workaround, if you can't change the height and width in VC.
