Losing Metadata when extracting image from stack
Hi,
I have a series of 70 images that I edited in colour and B/W. They were stacked with the original RAW file in stacks of 3. I decided to extract the B/W versions to collect them in a separate folder. Now I discovered that from most B/W images the IPTC data is gone (and I had extensive captions and keyword lists). Only the info I filled in when importing the files from the camera remains. The IPTC of the other images in the stacks (RAW and a colour TIFFs) are in some cases gone too. So in more than 50% of the cases I have lost all added data in all three images from each stack.
Has anyone had similar problems? Is there any way to recover the data of the images where all data is gone?
In some stacks at least one of the images still has the data. So I can copy that again.
Thanks,
Ronald
I don't have a file to test with mdls but I usually use ExifTool for metadata work. Here is a script I wrote a while ago that will display all of the metadata contained in the file.

Which is better? Extracting images from directories or from database?
Good day,
I would like to start a discussion on extracting image (binary data) from a relational database. Although some might say that extracting image from directories is a better approach, I m still sceptic on that implementation.
My argument towards this is based on the reasonings below:
1. Easier maintainence. - System Administrator can do backup from one place which is the database.
2. High level of security - can anyone tell me how easy it is to hack into a database server?
3. image is not dependent on file structure - no more worries about broken links because some one might mistakenly change the directory structure. If there needs to be a change, it will be handle efficiently by the database server.
The intention of my question is to find out :
1. Why is taking image from a directory folder which resides on the web server is better than using the same approach from the database?
2. How is this approach (taking image from directory) scalable if there is thousands of images and text that needs to be served?
If anybody would be kind enough to reply, I would be most grateful.
Thank You.
Regards
hattaDatabases are typically more oriented towards text and number content than binary content, I believe. If you carry images in the database you will need to run them through your code and through your java server before they are displayed. If they are held in a directory they will be called from hrefs in the produced page, which means that they are served by your static server. This is quicker because no processing of the image is required. It also means the Database has to handle massively less data. Depending on the database this should be far quicker to query.
It is worth noting that it is also quite difficult to actually change mime-types on a page to display a picture in the midst of HTML- the number of enquiries on these pages about this topic should be enough to illustrate this.
If you give over controls of all the image file handling to your java system (which I do when I write sites like the one you describe) then the actual program knows where to put the images and automatically adds them to the database. The system administrator never needs to touch them. If they want a backup they save the database and the website directory. The second of those should be a standard administrative task anyway, so there is not a huge difference there. The danger of someone accidentally changing the directory structure is no greater than the danger of someone accidentally dropping a database table- it can be minimised by making sure your administrators are competent. Directory structures can be changed back, dropped tables are gone.
The security claim is slightly negated because you still have to run a webserver. Every program you run on your server is vulnerable to attack but if you are serving web pages you will have a server program that is faster than a database for image handling. You are far more at risk from running FTP or Telnet on your server or (worst of all) trying to maintain IIS.
The images in directory structure is more scalable because very large databases are more likely to become unstable and carrying a 50k image in every image field rather than 2 bytes of text will make the database roughly 25000 times larger. I have already mentioned the difference in serving methods which stands in favour of recycling images. A static site will be faster than a dynamic site of equivalent size, so where you can, take advantage of that. -

Does anybody have an idea to solve the problem?A scan from string function can be used as per the attachment. The double \ ('\\') is in the format string in order to interpret the '\' characters in your input string as literal characters and not special formatting.

I am trying to extract images from pdfs using pdfimages, but i am unable to retrieve all the images. By opening the pdfs using Acrobat Reader 9.0, I am able to select, those images retrieved by pdfimages, using the select tool but for other figures/images we need to try other options like print screen and then cut the relevant image. I was wondering why or when does the Acrobat treats the figures/images differently.
Hi Dave,
Thanks for the reply. My question was not regarding any non-Adobe product like pdfimages. It was in general the way Acrobat handles the images while creating pdfs.
I wanted to know why can we select some of the images from the pdf using select tool and can not select others for which we need to print screen and cut. Is there anything in the eps files of included image that causes such effect?
Thanks. -
Saving and redrawing image from stack
Hi ,
I have a small problem with images...I create BufferedImage which i save on stack everytime i click on a mouse button , but when i try to reacall that image from stack i dont get nothing or the last Image i made.
This is the short description of my prog. :
I have a main class that extends JFrame and inner class that extends JPanel and has a mouse listener , ... in this inner class everytime i press a mouse button i send image on stack , and problems i have is when i press a button declared in my main class to pop image from stack and paint it on my inner JPanel class i dont know how to implement this.
So if anyone can help...please dooooI appologise...everytime i pasted code i forgot to change something...small tweeks...but now it work I tried it...before it didnt compile cos of small tweeks...but now it woks...I hope u ll see my problem when i hit undo button...everything is gone...maybe i need to create a new image to send on stack or something and load that image when i hit undo button...i dont know???

How can I extract images from Numbers?
Sounds a bit stupid but how do you extract images from Apples 'Numbers 3' on a Mac? I have a client that sends images in XLS files, that normally in Word I would Alt Click and 'save as...'
I was trying to stop using Word but this simple little feature will make all the difference.
Can anyone point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
DaveHi Wayne,
Thank you for your response. Sadly if you do this it copies in to the MACs clipboard as a snap shot of the image at the dimensions in Numbers.
Eg.
An image I've extracted from the document via Excel saved out at it's original dimensions 1024 x 300px, even though it was placed, then scaled down to 300px wide on the sheet.
Same image copied then pasted in to an image editor (as I couldn't paste into finder) was only 300px wide.
The feature I need is to be able to save out the original image placed in the Numbers sheet.
Anyone with ideas on this? -
Extracting Images from PDF file
Hello All,
I am reading PDF File.I need to extract images from PDF File programatically.But problem is that some images are stored inside PDF File using FlateDecode Filter and I need to first decode that file and then I can extract that image .I dont know the way to decode that image data.Is there any way or API to do that in C++.
Thanks
Aarti NagpalI think you can do it through cos object in VC++ plugin..go through the PDEFilterSpec in
Acrobat core api reference
Be well.. -
When capturing images from a Nikon D600, they show in Bridge, but when clicked to load into CS6,an error message says that it is the wrong type of document, evne jpeg files. This is a NEW frustration.
Nikon raw files would open up in Adobe Camera Raw and so should jpegs.
If you select one in Bridge and give the command "Ctrl r" (Windows), what happens?
Also what is the version of ACR in the title bar?

Highly appretiate your suggestions.
Vinod.CHHi Rathy Moorthy,
Thank you very much for your reply. The source system connections are OK and we are able to load data to other Data targets from ETL, we have issue only with this this particular load. The load extracts data and I have loaded the data from ETL to PSA and have checked the data content and it is correct. But when I update the same data to the target I get this error. I have also tried to update from PSA to target and also directly from ETL to target.
Appretiate your suggestions. -
Extracting image from bufferedimage based on colors
Hi everyone,
i have a rather tricky problem: Is it possible to extract an image from a bufferedimage depending on colors. I have images with a black/dark gray item on a mostly white background and need to extract (sub)images of both ends of that item, which is displayed basically horizontally across the iamge.yes you can do this no problem
convert image to pixels (array)
traverse the array and look for the desired color (threshold)
when you find a pixel you like, copy it to the new (sub) image or whatever -
Noise Ninja Problem when downloading images from Epson P-3000 hard drive
I've just downloaded JPEG images from my Epson P-3000 hard drive and when I try to sharpen the images using Noise Ninja plug-in in Aperture I get the following error message: Editing Error. This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format. I don't have any issues using Noise Ninja with other images (using latest Aperture version) and this is the first time i've downloaded images from the Epson rather than my memory card. I'm wondering if the issue is related to the Epson. The metadata of the image in Aperture confirms that the image is a JPEG so I'm not sure what's going on.

Extracting images from the library.
Hi All,
Quick question. I use SmugMug to display all my images on the web but am unsure how to do this since switching to MAC and Aperture.
I used to just go to SmugMug and then browse my (PC) hard drive for the image I wanted to upload, but it seems that when I am using Aperture they are all included in the Library so you can't get to individual images.
Do I need to extract the images from Aperture onto the Hard Drive seperate from the Library?
Cheers.Yes. However, this is pretty simple. And if you're using RAW files (which is what you probably want to do if using Aperture), you'll have to export them as JPEG (actualy SmugMug will take TIFF but it will auto-convert it to JPEG).
First, edit your files in Aperture. Then select export versions in Aperture, and export as whatever you want -- I use full-size JPEG, quality 10. This gives files in the 1.8-2.2 MB range for my 1D mark II.
Then download the Smugmug uploader from Smugmug's site (don't know where on the site it is, but it's there). Export your files from Aperture to a folder, then double-click to open the folder. Launch Smugmug uploader, click the "files" tab on the top, select all the files in teh finder, and drag them to the little well. You'll see something like "ready to upload 77 files", click upload, and wait.
I know this process pretty well as I've done it a bit myself... you can see blloyd.smugmug.com for some of the stuff I've thrown up there. -
When exporting TIFFs (from original RAW), I noticed my metadata said the "date created" was the day of export. I want to be able to access the date the original image was taken as opposed to the day I exported it. Is there a way to maintain original date of image taken in my info? I couldn't seem to find it after I exported my TIFFs...
I just tested this with LR 5.5 Mac OS 10.9.3 and it works correctly for me.
To troubleshoot your problem:
1. Which version of LR and which platform (Mac, Windows)?
2. Which tool or command are you using to examine Date Created of the exported TIFF?
3. Upload a sample TIFF showing the problem to Dropbox or similar and post the URL here. This will allow us to take a look in detail.
