Organize scanned slides and digital images into Adobe Lightroom 3

I am working as a volunteer at a small museum, and need to import a large number of scanned slides and associated information into Adobe Lightroom.
Using photo scripts, specimen catalog, etc., adding metadata to each record so that specific slides can be located using appropriate key words.
I also need to import digital images into Adobe Lightroom. Adding metadata to each digital image so that specific images can be located using appropriate key words.

How come every time I bring in a new image into Adobe Ideas as a background it's a different size?

I created a multilayered stencil in Photoshop and each layer was exported as a TIFF. Then I uploaded those TIFFs to Adobe Creative Cloud. My idea was to trace each of the TIFFs using Adobe Ideas, which seems to work except, every time I bring in new TIFF as the background photo to trace, it's a different size.'
How come every time I bring in a new image into Adobe Ideas as a background it's a different size?

When importing images through the Photo layer in the layers panel, the image that comes in has a size that is dependent on the current zoom level of the document. This may explain why you are seeing different sizes. You can select the hand tool and double-tap on your sketch to return the zoom level to 100%. If you do this before importing your photo, then your photos should all be imported at the same size.
Hope that helps,

I just really need to know... After desigining my UX, how do I go about adding the image into ADOBE FLASH BUILDER to script on top of it?

Any and all advice is welcome.

Do you have different versions of the graphic novel pages, or is there just one version of the page? If there is one version, can you crop into the page without losing anything important?
I would guess that there is one version, and that cropping into the page will lose something important. If that's the case, here's how I would handle it:
Make a stage that is 14:9. The size doesn't matter, but 1400x900 could be a good starting point.
Put down a background texture that fits well with the look of the other images. Make that fill the 1400x900 stage.
Place your page graphics so that they are within the center 1200x788 area of the stage.
Set the stage scalemode to "noBorder".
You now have a layout that will work on all devices, as narrow as iPad, and as wide as iPhone 5. All without any code. On the widest devices you'll see a bit of your background pattern to the left and right of the page graphic. On the narrowest devices you'll see a bit of background pattern above and below the page graphic. But you won't lose sight of anything important.

Looking for best way to convert 35 mm slides to digital images

Hello Apple Community,
Am researching best ways to convert several hundred 35 mm slides into digital images. There are numerous scanners/converters out there but want to ensure I get the best unit compatable with my iMac (27 inch, Late 2009). Any suggestions welcome.

For scanning 35mm slides you need a scanner with a good photometric resolution and geometric resolution.
For the photometric resolution: Get a scanner with a high density range (D-max) value, to get a good resolution of highlights and shadows.
For the geometric resolution - sharpness and detail - try to get at least 3200 dp,i to be able to get good 8"x10" prints from your scanned slides, a higher dpi value, if you want to be able to print larger images.

Scanning Slides and Negatives: JPEG vs. TIFF - what do I really give up?

I am about to scan about 1,200 slides and color negatives and am trying to determine whether I should produce JPEGs or TIFFs. I did a test run and compared the quality of 4,000 dpi JPEG vs. TIFF and the image quality appeared similar - even when comparing print enlargements using a lupe. The file sizes differ dramatically -- so I am biased to produce JPEG, all other things equal. I understand that one major difference is that each time a JPEG is saved, some image degradation occurs since the compression is not 'lossless'.
A few questions regarding the drawback of using JPEGs as my 'masters' in Aperture:
- Since I am using Aperture, and a feature of Aperture is always maintaining the 'master' without change, do I not have some protection against image quality loss (i.e., beyond that which occurred during the initial scan)?
- Is there any adjustment that cannot be made within Aperture to a JPEG, that can be accomplished with a TIFF?
- Any other drawbacks that I should consider when using a JPEG as the 'master' for my images within Aperture (vs. TIFFs)?
Note that I am not concerned about drawbacks associated with functionality in other programs (Photoshop, etc.), just drawbacks associated with functionality in Aperture.
Thanks!

Along the lines of Live Picture, which was the first colour correction software for ColorSync, and LinoColor which was the first colour capture software for ColorSync, Aperture constructs ICC colour matching sessions to show the colours different colour devices are capable of forming, and does not change the source pixels in the colour correction process.
Nonetheless, JPEG is a lossy model by definition. It works the way compression works in the CIELa*b colour model or in Kodak's colour model for PhotoCD, that is, by destroying information in the chroma channels and preserving information in the lightness channel. Using JPEG as archival master is not a good idea imho, at least not if changes are to be made to the archival master.
For archival masters, select a colour correction ICC colour space (a 'working space' in Adobe terminology) that is large enough to hold any colours you are capable of capturing, and large enough to hold any colours the innumerable colour devices you will be matching to are capable of forming. You can use the Apple ColorSync Utility to check gamuts.
You cannot reproduce a colour that you do not have in your source colour space, even if the colour device you are matching to is capable of forming that colour. For instance, don't use sRGB that is too small to form the colour of pure cyan on bright art paper in ISO 12647 offset printing. And you may want to use TIFF that can be compressed losslessly. Always embed the ICC profile for the colour space in which you capture/corrected the image. Otherwise, there is no definition of the colours your colourants should form on colour devices that need to have the colourants changed in order to form the colours you intended.

Scanning slides and negatives for iMovie

What dpi setting should I use to scan my 35mm color slides and b/w negatives that will be imported into iMovie? I may want to print some of the photos too, so should I use a higher dpi and will iMovie compress the image to what it needs? When completed in iMovie, I'll burn to dvd with iDVD.

Hi Rick - my (not very powerful) dedicated slide scanner just scans to 1800dpi, and they usually result in rather dark images that have to be 'pushed' a lot in Photoshop - then the results are very acceptable. While in Photoshop you can also remove dust and other blemishes (some of my old ones had tiny patches of mould, and a few scratches as well!). As others say, scan at highest dpi possible - this also allows for some KB zooming (which is very useful especially for pics taken in portrait-mode).
In a few cases with very dark slides, the scanning was not very successful, so I used my video camera aimed at a projector screen (keep the image small), which worked very well, even allowing for zooming and panning to be done.
Hope this helps.

Can`t drag and drop images into PSE5

hi,
i`m from germany, so sorry for my english..
i use pse5 since a few years and a few month with windows7..today i had to reinstall it and now i can`t drag and drop images from explorer or acdsee to PSE workspace. i get no error-message , only this circle with a diagonal line..
i CAN drag and drop images from the editor..
- i reinstalled it and repaired it
- tried diffferent compatability modes
- i don`t run the program as a administrator ( tried it- it was the same)
so can anyone please help me?
thank you so much!

Try making a direct shortcut to the Organizer and then the Editor.
You should then be able to drag and drop on to the desktop icon.
On Windows right click on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
Browse to Computer OS C:
And find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
Inside the Adobe >> Photoshop Elements Organizer (yellow folder) you are looking for an application file “PhotoshopEementsOrganizer” with six small icons (e.g. representing thumbnails - could be different in PSE5 but look for the exe file)
Select it and click OK
Click next
Rename by taking out Photoshop Elements leaving just the word Organizer
Then click finish
You should now be able to launch directly form the desktop by double clicking on the icon.
You can set up a similar direct link to the Editor application.

Drag and drop Images into Multiple Targets

Hello,
I want to alter the NI example "Drag and Drop - Multiple Data Types to Start Drag" to use multiple image Targets. The current VI only allows for dropping image into a single Target. I want to duplicate the target window a few times, in order to drop different images into each different Target. I can't seem to figure out how the VI recognizes and differentiates the Targets.
Thanks,
Labview 2009 SP1

Hello,
Please see attached... That's a simple way to perform what you need : each target is handled in the same event case (the target is differentiated by using control refnum).
Hope this helps,
J.

Drag and Drop Image into JTable

I was wondering if anyone can tell me if it is possible to have an image dragged and dropped into a JTable where the single image snaps to multiple columns and rows?
Thank you.

Drag and drop images into anchored frames -- can this be done with the images imported by reference?

My company bought a product from another company and the only manuals files that came with it were in pdf format. I am currently grabbing text out in Acrobat, then pasting and reformatting it in FrameMaker. Boring and tedious. . . .
Eventually I get to the point of importing the illustrations. There are *hundreds* of them. As a rule, we import the files by reference, to keep the chapter size smaller and to be able to double click the image to open it for modification.
However, I can drag an image file from the folder window and drop it into an anchored frame. Oooh, this is fast--way faster than all the mousework that goes into clicking file>import>file>[choosing the file then hitting the import button].
But, dang it, that copies the image into the FrameMaker file. No double-click opening. Giant fm. file size. Mad boss, shaking an SOP standards sheet in my face.
So, my question: Is there a way to import an image *by reference* by dragging and dropping them into an anchored frame?
Thanks, folks.
Moore. Matt Moore.

I tried the RTF route and, in addition to getting the body text I wanted, got paragraph after paragraph of the page numbers, the illustration text, the header and footer verbiage, all randomly placed between body text paragraphs.
I did the same file twice, once by saving as RTF and deleting unwanted stuff, then repairing body paragraphs (each line of which is a seperate paragraph in the RTF file) and also by sweeping only the necessary text, then copying and pasting it page by page. The second method was a bit faster and less frustrating. Not to say that it isn't slow and frustrating in itself, but just a bit less. Less errors, too, with the second method.
Bummer about importing by reference. I don't suppose there's a way to set up recorded actions with hotkeys, is there? Like in Illustrator?
Thanks, Art.

Can I export by year and drop images into subfolders by month?

I'm somewhat new to Lightroom, coming over from Aperture.
Is there a way to export all of my catalogue files by Year>Month. There are about 3 years worth of images there.
So the top folder would be Year (the year the image was created) and inside that folder would be 12 folders, one for each month. This is something I do in Aperture at the end of the year, before archiving my images.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

How to import URL image into Adobe Muse ?

Hello dear Adobe Community,
I have a (silly) question, I'm building my website on muse and I can't find the way to import URL image.
Are you forced to have all your image stocked in website ? I used to have everything on Google Plus to save me some storage place for the HD image and then to load it via URL in my old website.
Is there anyway to import URL image ?
Thanks you very much for your answers !

Hello,
In case of google plus you can do that. Please follow the steps below.
Step 1. Get the url of the image from google plus by Right click > Copy Image URL
Step 2. Now you need to insert the HTML codes mentioned below in Muse by going to Object > Insert HTML
<img src="ImageURL" width="400" height="400">
You need to replace "ImageURL" with the link you copied from step 1. Please make sure the images are public.
Please let me know if you face any difficulty.
Regards
Vivek

Why must I have Internet access and be logged into Adobe to use Photoshop Elements?

I can not use Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 unless I have Internet access and log into an Adobe account. Why? This means you can't install the software on a laptop and use it while traveling unless you have 100% Internet access throughout your trip. What a load of ....... Why is this? I there a way around it?
Any advice appreciated.

Thanks Barbara. I tested it (trust but verify ) and that is the case. I must have been logging out, and thus deactivating, in my earlier testing. I agree, bad choice of words or phrasing by Adobe. Thanks again.

Drag and drop image into 2d Picture

Hi All,
I'm trying to implement a bit of "MS paint" magic for a customer's dialog. I want to be able to drag and drop into a 2d picture control. Ideally, I'd like to be able to move this around and resize it once it's there, but let's start with the first part - how to drag and drop from e.g. the desktop onto the 2d picture control. The rest is nice-to-have but unnecessary.
I've seen a clever example on here using a transparent path control, but that's not going to cut it here (I have other events linked with that picture box, e.g. right now I have a double-click event adding text to the image).
Thanks for any ideas... I've looked briefly into using the windows API (i.e. constructor nodes) but, there be dragons.
Solved!

Well, it is possible and I got it working . Let me clean it up, close my references, etc and I will post it. You will have to use the .net control though so hopefully that is ok. You could manage it for the labVIEW picture control with a mix of .net or winAPI to handle the drag and drop and see if it's over your picture control and then somehow get the path of the drag and load the path into the LabVIEW picture control. But, you may just want to stick with it all using the .net control
