Need help scripting DICOM metadata in Photoshop

I was wondering how to edit DICOM metadata with javascript. I am editing a bunch of DICOM images and have to give them new descriptors in the "Study Description" field. In one of Adobe's help pages, it states
You can also view and edit metadata for DICOM files in Bridge or in the Photoshop File Info dialog box. DICOM files support external automation through scripting
I presume this means that editing DICOM metadata should be scriptable, but I have not found a means to access the "Study Description" field. Does anyone know how to access it?

I was able to edit the DICOM metadata with your method. Most of the fields can be altered and saved. However, there are a few fields such as SeriesInstanceUID that won't cooperate. I can temporarily alter the SeriesInstanceUID field but after I save and reload it, another value automatically generated by Photoshop replaces it. Is there a way to force the DICOM to have the SeriesInstanceUID I want?

This is a second try to get help. I need help to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop cc 2014

Bridge is not working well, I need to reinstall Photoshop cc 2014 . Someone from Communities was suppose to help me.

Hi John,
I used the chat "Creative chat support" this afternoon at around 14:40
and the person, Karthik M , gave me a link to Technical Support. I
guess he could not help me, but he said he understood the issue.   With
the link "Help, Adobe Installation problems",   I will follow the
instructions to clean ps cc2014 with CCleaner and reinstall the app.
It looks quite complicated but I will give it a try and hopefully succeed.
You have to understand when reading my previous messages, the issue is
no longer "Retreiving Photoshop CC" but reinstalling Phoshop 2014 to try
to repair Bridge.
Thanks for caring,
Suzanne Lanthier

Need Help to re-download my Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12 to a new laptop Win-8 64-bit

When I purchased the special deal of Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12, I owned a Windows Vista (32-bit) laptop. When I downloaded my purchase, all went smoothly, no problems w/Photoshop when I used the mouse's wheel-scroll feature, it helped me zoom in to specifically pinpoint areas in pictures t/b fixed, etc.
I now have a NEW laptop ... Windows 8 (64-bit). I re-downloaded my Photoshop Elements 12+Premiere Elements 12 onto my new one. Options to download the Premiere Elements showed I should use the "bottom" option to download for Win-8/64-bit - did that w/no problem. There were NO OPTIONS showing that the Photoshop Elements 12 had to ALSO be using a specific way to be downloaded? Consequently, I think (?), the problem that I'm having in using the mouse's wheel-scrolling feature may have been affected by using the "normal" format to download???
So here's my question: Because I bought this combined deal, should I have ALSO used the bottom option showing installation for 64-bit Premiere Elements 12??? I WOULD APPRECIATE A TIMELY RESPONSE - NEED HELP ON GETTING MY PHOTOSHOP WORKING PROPERLY, NOW!
Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions that can resolve my frustrating experience on this!

Oops!!!! I accidentally found my answer within my Photoshop Elements 12 "Preferences" folder! Only one part of my question remains --- what about how to download it as a 64-bit option, or does it matter at all?
Sorry to have panicked about this, but when I started using it, the cursor movements seemed unstable so I thought it was because of downloading for a 32-bit instead of my current OS-64bit!

I need help hoe re-install my photoshop CS5 in my laptop

I need help How to re-install my photoshop CS5. I lost it after reboot my laptop

You should be able to find the installation file to download, along with your serial number by logging on to your Adobe account, providing you registered it originally. You are allowed two activations at any one time, but you will have lost one unless you managed to deactivate CS5 before the crash, (which seems unlikely).
If you have already used two activations, you'll need to contact Customer support and ask them to reset it for you. Be warned they are busy at the moment, so you may have to wait a while on the phone.

Need Help. Can't load photoshop. Gets hung up at "Reading Global Resources"

I can't get photoshop to load. It stops loading at "Reading Global Resources". Currently running CS2 on windows Xp. Called Adobe, they won't support CS2 anylonger. Need help please.

Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776?tstart=0
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults. A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

Need help scripting a sliding volume scale.

Hi, I hope this is in the right section, I am trying to make
a flash flv player (sort of like youtube) for my site. I have it
practically done but need a better volume adjustment. Currently, I
have only been able to figure out how to make a sound on/off button
but what I would really like is the volume control found on this
player.

Could someone please help me with the script for it? I am
really new to flash but I made the following 3 objects in the
library. Solid black graphic in to a movie object, 1 solid black
graphic in to a button, and one light grey graphic in to a button.
I assume I need a script for each of those 3 objects. Thanks for
the help!

you need to submit it to another file which in turn will
insert the information on the fold field using SQL. for example...
INSERT INTO contact

Begginer needs help with what version of Photoshop?

Let me clarify.....
Back in 2008, I bought an E-Machine Desktop that had "Adobe Photoshop" bundled on it.
I bought a new HP 6719C computer last year.
It has no Photoishop program whatsoever.
I LOVED my old version of Photoshop.
The feature I liked most was the erasing Tool, were you could put your head on someone elses boday, and the "Clone" feature, to take out unwanted items in your pictures.e to Download a version of Adobe Photoshop, that closely resembles the Features I described above.
Not looking for anything, super-dooper fancy.
Just pretty much the Basics.
So what is this "Adobe Elements" program all about.
What would be the simpelest, least complicated program, to get me started after a 5 year Hiatus without Adobe Photoshop?
Roger

Photoshop Elements 10 should do what you need.
You could download a thirty day trial and see if it does what you need.

Need help with Replace Metadata then multiple Save script

I am attempting to create a javascript to run on a folder of PSDs. I need it to:
1. Replace image Metadata with an existing Metadata Template called "UsageTerms".
2. Play an existing Action "Prep_PrintRes". (The action sharpens and converts to 8-bit)
3. Append "_PrintRes" to the filename. (ie OriginalPSDName_PrintRes.jpg)
4. Save the file as a 12 Quality JPEG to specific folder on my hard drive, "D:/Transfer".
5. Play an existing Action "Prep_Magazine" (The action resizes, sharpens, and converts to CMYK)
6. Append "_Magazine" to the filename. (ie OriginalPSDName_Magazine.jpg)
7. Save the file as a 10 Quality JPEG WITH NO EMBEDDED PROFILE to "D:/Transfer".
8. Play an existing Action "Prep_Screen". (The action sizes, sharpens, and converts to sRGB)
9. Append "_ScreenRes" to the filename (ie OriginalPSDName_ScreenRes.jpg)
10. Save the file as an 8 Quality JPEG to "D:/Transfer"
If anyone is available to help me get started with this I would greatly appreciate it. I can do a minimal amount of Visual Basic but Javascript is alien to me. Thanks so much!

Try the following as the custom calculate script:
// Sum the field values, as numbers
var sum = +getField("LaborCost").value;
sum += +getField("MaterialCost").value;
sum += +getField("EquipmentCost").value;
// Set this field value
event.value = sum > 0 ? sum : 0;
For the other one, change the last line to:
event.value = sum < 0 ? sum : 0;

Need help - script to continue text in another field if necessary

Wish I could attach my form but it's not available. I am using Adobe Acrobat 9.0. I have a form with two text fields for "Other" information that needs to be shared. If the user types in more characters than the box holds the overflow text doesn't print. These are court documents and all the text has to print somehow. I am trying to figure out a work around for this and wondered if a script can be written to put the extra text from each "Other" field into another field that would open on a new page at the end of the document if necessary. I want to avoid having extra empty pages however so if they can be added ONLY if the text needs to overflow. I hope I explained this okay, like I said I wanted to upload the form but can't. If someone can help me with this I would really appreciate it.

Yes, it is possible - I've already indirectly provided you with the code for that via the link in my post. Just remember to save it to your desktop:
http://www.adirect.dk/adobeforum/commentfields.pdf
As an alternative you could remove the limited characters, set the field to multiline and make a script that set the textsize to auto if the user fills the field with text. When textsize is set to auto, the text will keep on shrinking as user types more text.

Need help scripting the Essentials Server Backup configuration in PowerShell

I'm trying to write a PowerShell script that automates the setup and configuration of the Server Backup feature within WS2012 R2 Essentials. There are a number of cmdlets for defining the backup source files and target location such as add-wssbackuptarget,
add-wssbackupvolume, new-wssbackuptarget, etc.
These cmdlets all have a required -Disk parameter and I can't for the life of me figure out the syntax for it. I've tried the disk ID, drive letter, LUN, volume label, and disk number. All of the examples in the help files are using variables instead of
explicitly entering a value; I've tried using the example scripts and those fail too.
So here's a quick example:
Get-WssBackupPolicy | Add-WssBackupVolume -Disk ??
I obviously need more parameters than that but the point is, no matter what other parameters I type and no matter what I enter for the value of -Disk, I always get "Cannot bind parameter 'Disk'. Cannot convert the "D:\" (or whatever I've entered)
value of "System.String" to type "Microsoft.WindowsServerSolutions.DataProtection.ServerBackup.ObjectModel.BackupDisk".
And like I said in the opening paragraph, I get that same error for any and all cmdlets that use the -Disk parameter. Does anyone know how to properly structure format the -Disk value?
Thanks

Don't worry I wasn't sure as well, I had to raise a SR to understand it too!
I have a similar set up to yours and have webutil working successfully.
What you need to do is to install and configure your application server on unix for webutil as well as windows.
From your post I see you are already reading the docs. Within chapters 2 and 3 both of which are titled "configuring web util", you will see points that refer to the application server, these are the ones that you need to follow.
Good luck

Need Help scripting Multiple Dependencies to show hidden subform.

I'm trying to make it so two boxes have to be checked to show a hidden subform. I thought the script would be something like this:
if (Check1.rawValue==1)
&& (Check2.rawValue==1){
Sub1.presence="visible";
else{
Sub1.presence="hidden";
It's not working at all though, so I'm obviously mistaken in my logic.
I'm using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.1.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Kind of a stand still until I get this one figured out, otherwise I have to change how my document will be designed. Thanks.
Mike

I don't have LiveCycle but you from a javascript standpoint yuo might not need all those parenthesis in your if statement. Try:
if ( Check1.rawValue == 1 && Check2.rawValue == 1 ) {
Sub1.presence = "visible";
} else {
Sub1.presence= "hidden";
That is assuming that the "Check1", "Check2" and "Sub1" variables are setup to properly reference your live cycle form elements. If those variables are right then my if statement above should work for you.
If this still doesn't work for you, you might try posting this in the LiveCycle forums: http://forums.adobe.com/community/livecycle

Needing Help with color setting for Photoshop 4 + imac

Hi, Is anyone able to assist me please. To cut a long story short. i have had to reinstall my original software onto my Imac as when i put on Snow leopard it was just slowing down Photoshop 4 and would keep crashing. So my problem is .... I had some prints printed today at Fuji and the prints have come back dark and just not up to scratch. I know that it is not Fuji, but my settings. I had someone set up my imac and Photoshop last time, but this time i will have to do myself and i just don't know what to set them at. Can anyone help please. Not sure if you need this info but i am in New Zealand. many thanks in advance.

Being in the business of printing other people's image files, I can say without any doubt that the advent of digital image processing has definitely muddied the waters to a much greater extent than was the case when printing negaive film. I'm also a shooter, and have been using such programs for many years, so I can understand the desire to manipulate your files before sending them to the lab. Color negatives never had "Profiles" attached to them. If the proper film was used for the lighting conditions, it was simply up to the lab to make sure the resulting print was in balance, both in color and density. It was also the lab's responsibility to maintain a degree of quality control that would make all of the above possible and repeatable. I have to agree with the other response to your question. Whether or not you have an embidded a profile, it's always the job of the printer to make sure the final print is up to a certain standard of quality. If that is not the case, find another printer. Unless you have indicated that your files should be printed without any corrections, the oweness belongs to the lab/printer. I do have a few customers whose work I can print with very few corrections, due to the fact that they have calibrated their displays and have a very tight workflow. However, the vast majority of files that I print require a considerable degree of correction, that's my job. It's also the job of your lab/printer and if they are nor satisfying your needs you have to find someone who does. I have printed many files that have no profile embidded and I simply convert them to my working color space(Adobe RGB 1998). If you are concerned about doing color settings, this is the obvious place to start. Create a custom space and make sure your working color is set to Adobe RGB 1998, not sRGB. Adobe RGB 1998 is a considerably larger color space with a wider gamut and will allow for more choices and a wider range when it comes to processing the image. Pro Photo RGB is an even larger color space, but one that is seldom used at this time. I suspect it will become more popular in the fairly near future, as other technologies continue to push the color gamut envelope.
So, I guess the gist of all of this is that you need to either have your lab/printer redo the dark prints, or find someone who knows how to print. And equally important, someone who cares about your work as much as yo do.
I am attaching a screen shot of my color settings and I would suggest this might be a good place to start.

Need help with Color Profiles between Photoshop and iPhoto

Hey guys, I'm a photographer and have always used Photoshop in comination with iPhoto. I am having great difficulty lately with color profiles randomly changing within albums of pictures. I need all of my images to be in sRGB, but some somehow end up in Adobe RGB. It seems to happen at random. Apple seems to think it's an Adobe problem. Adobe isn't sure what to do. Anybody aware of any known issues between CS5 and iPhoto using OS 10.8.4 with regard to color profiles and how to fix them?

Need help with an application problem - Photoshop Elements 3.0

Hi,
I wrote to an Adobe Photoshop Elements forum, but the suggestions made there have not helped solve the problem. A friend suggested that I post about it here as there are likely many of you who use the program.
I start up PSE 3 and it begins to load. When it gets to where it says that it is "building TWAIN menu items" as soon as it says that, it closes. I have put the Photoshop Elements 3.0 Settings file into the trash, emptied the trash then restarted the program (one of the suggestions from the Adobe forum) and that didn't fix the problem. I've deleted that file and uninstalled the program, restarted the computer, then reinstalled the program - and it still closes at the same point in the startup.
I bought my Mac in Dec. 2005 and bought PSE 3 at the computer store the same day, so neither is very old.
Have any of you had this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Thank you
Pearl
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Thank you Rod That worked. Now, what do I do with the stuff I took out of that file?
What are the files actually called, Pearl?
The stuff in that folder will be a "TWAIN" driver or drivers for something that you connect to your computer to take images - a scanner or a camera, for example, (though not many cameras use TWAIN these days).
What brand and model of scanner or camera are you using?
The best solution in such situations is usually to download a new set of current drivers from the manufacturers web site, and install them fresh. Just stick the old ones in the trash once you have done this, and checked that it works.
Cheers
Rod
