Pattern Maker or another plug-in for Photoshop CC?

Hello, I know there is no longer patter maker in CC. I used it for creating patterns from existing background in an image. With pattern features in 14.2 I can't reach the same effect. Pattern maker was aware of the edges of the pattern and created good end result. Can anybody give me an advice what to use/do? thanks

What kind of backgrounds are you talking about?
One popular approach is creating a new document from a rectangular or square element and applying the Filter Offset (with something like half the width and height as horizontal and vertical offsets).
This usually makes the borders noticeable (if they are noticeable at all) and one can then touch them up.

Microsoft HD Photo Plug-ins for Photoshop are Released

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hd_Photo
"HD Photo has been announced by Microsoft and the Joint Photographic Experts Group to be under consideration for a JPEG standard, tentatively titled JPEG XR.
"The HD Photo bitstream specification claims that "HD Photo offers image quality comparable to JPEG-2000 with computational and memory performance more closely comparable to JPEG", that it "delivers a lossy compressed image of better perceptive quality than JPEG at less than half the file size", and that "lossless compressed images are typically 2.5 times smaller than the original uncompressed data".
http://blogs.msdn.com/billcrow/archive/2007/12/06/hd-photo-plug-ins-for-photoshop-are-rele ased.aspx
"HD Photo plug-ins for Adobe® Photoshop® CS2 and CS3 have been officially released for both Windows and OSX. They're available now from the Microsoft Download Center. [Links on this webpage]
"The Windows version is supported on Windows XP and Windows Vista, and works with Photoshop CS2 and CS3. While not officially supported, it will also work with limited features with older versions of Photoshop and with Photoshop Elements. The included README file has details.
For PSE6, I installed it to
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\HD Photo Plugin for Adobe Photoshop\
It works properly, as far as I can tell, for both Opening and Saving.
File size and processing speed seem consistent with the claims for the format.

Regular JPEG is capable of high definition (size) images.
The "HD" in "HD Photo" is a reference to the fact that the bit depth can
greatly exceed the 8-bit limitation of regular JPEG. That's primarily
of value in high-quality photo editing, and for archiving originals.

DVD player upconversion is no better than the upconversion built-in to
any decent HD TV; i.e., it's mostly just marketing hype.

Difficulty scanning slides on my Epson V600 running Lion, Adobe Photoshop CS6, and can no longer use the Epson scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?

I am running Lion 10.7.5, Adobe Photoshop CS6, scanning slides on my Epson V600 and can no longer use the scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?
In 10.7 there is not a twain that works with Photoshop for importing with all the options needed to scan transparencies. I noticed that when I was scanning in October 2012 I was still using CS6 so somehow I was managing to be able to use all the scan features.
They sell 2nd party software (VieScan and Silverscript)which I found to be just mimially OK and very hard to use.
I just want to scan like I used to.
Can I use time machine to go back to an earlier operating sysytem LEOPARD, and then do my scans and then save the photos and them go back to the LION system?
I spent 7 hours trying crazy solutions - downloading Windows CS2 Photoshop and then using a program so I could run it on the apple. Then I couldn't figure out how to put a plug in for the scanner in the stupid windows Photoshop program. Googgling the computer like a mad woman trying to ask questions. I am not giving up...
Please help if you can...
Thanks...

I assume you've tried using Image Capture. Give VueScan a try.

I can't download the Adobe Edge Reflow. The file's downloading is successfull but the file doesn't go to my Creative Cloud so I can't install the programme. I have already install the Photoshop CC and the Reflow Plug-in for Photoshop.

Hello
1. I am running on Windows 8.1
2. When running the installer file from https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/reflow I get the following choice
I click "OK" which doesn't do anything for me (CC is off).
I turn CC on and run the installer again. I get the following window that within few settings disappears:
Then - just for half a second it says "Launching Creative Cloud desktop" and then it brings CC to front, and that's all.
RF still not there.
3. I spoke ta support agent on the Adobe chat on Friday. He looked into my computer for an hour. Uninstalled After Effects (after failing to update it). For some reason all apps disappeared from the list. They then reappeared after he opened PS.
This morning After Effects is still showing up in my system and is operational.
Weird.
4. At the end the agent suggested maybe Firewall is the problem here. Trying that out now.

Experimental WIC import plug-in for Photoshop

Hello,
For what it's worth, I've written a small import plug-in for Photoshop, that uses WIC codecs to access the image files and thus is compatible with manufacturer-provided decoders such as the Nikon NEF codec and the Canon CRW/CR2 codec. It should presumably work with the new Nikon NRW codec, supporting the Nikon P6000 camera, when it comes out.
This is an experimental plugin, provided on an "as-is" basis.
http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/bin/WICAcquirePlugIn-ALPHA.zip
There is no color-management support in this version, if you import, say, an image shot in Adobe RGB, you have to use "Edit->Assign Profile..." after importing to let Photoshop know about the image's profile. The plug-in was tested with CS3 but does not depends on anything except WIC, so it *may* work in other apps able to use Photoshop import plugins.

New cameras need a new plug-in. Adobe only updates the plug-in for the current version of elements. Since your Elements is one version out-of-date, your camera may be too new. Help / Updates in Elements should find the latest version of the plug-in that is still applicable.
If your camera is too new, then you’ll need to purchase an upgrade to PSE 11, or use the newest DNG Converter 7.3 to convert your NEFs to DNGs that will open in an older version of the plug-in.
You can find the various updates on http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates using the dropdown list near the top.

Is there a plug-in for Photoshop?

I think I have seen some posts here which say there is no plug-in for Photoshop, especially some older postings. I could have sworn that I have used a Lightroom plug-in for photoshop, but it's been quite a while.
I was wanting to do this tonight, and I cannot seem to find the plug-in. Instead, in the File Menu, where I think it used to be, it say something about "Upgrade Photo Elements 6 Catalog." That is, it says this on my Vista PC. The version on my Windows 7 64 bit laptop doesn't have either this "Upgrade Photo Elements 6 Catalog," nor can I find anything for Photoshop.
Is there, or was there ever, a plug-in for Photoshop? If there is, how can I get it reinstalled?
Thanks,
Richard

I may be using the incorrect terminology here. I am almost certain that about a year ago, I
was able to export a file out of Lightroom into Photoshop so I could work on it,
and then be able to bring it back into Lightroom. I don't know if this is a plug-in for Lightroom, or a plug-in for Photoshop.
The more I think of it, the more certain I am that was able to do this.
Thanks,
Richard

Installing Optional Plug-ins for Photoshop CS5

I have downloaded the Optional Plug-ins for Photoshop CS5 but when I double click on the zxp file I get a message:
"There is no application set to open the document “CS5 Optional Automate Plug-ins.zxp”.
I have tried selecting "choose application" in the same message window and navigating to Applications>Utilities>Adobe Installers but the only option there is greyed out.
I am using Mac OS 10.6.8.

Can one develop plug-ins for Photoshop Touch?

I have a few Plug-ins for Photoshop CS, can I develop plug-ins for Photoshop Touch for Tablets?

Camera raw plug-in for Photoshop CS

Can I download a camera raw plug-in for Photoshop CS (just CS, the really old one) that is compatible with my Rebel T2i? I can find info on which plug-in I need but when I try to find it they are all for newer versions of photoshop.

Hi,
What operating system are you using photoshop cs on?
Since photoshop cs (photoshop 8) can't be updated past camera raw 2.4, you would need to use the 8.3 dng converter to convert your files to
dng copies that photoshop cs can open.
You also need to ensure you have updated photoshop cs to camera raw 2.4, so you can open dng files in phpotoshop cs.
The following links are for windows versions:
8.3 dng converter:

camera raw 2.4

If your using photoshop cs on mac os x, then the particular dng converter you would need differs, depending on what version of os x your using.

Possible to make plug-ins for Photoshop using Dreamweaver?

With the new cc 2014, I have been doing a little bit of research into how to structure a plugin for my workflow when I animate. I've been reviewing the cc 2014 sdk guide and I have been wondering if it is possible to use Dreamweaver cc 2014 a Photoshop cc 2014 extension for Photoshop since it's full support of html 5. In the guide it explains that almost anything you can do when making chromium extensions, you can do with Photoshop cc 2014 (or any other).
Has anyone tried this?

Dreamweaver is web authoring software for creating HTML, CSS and other client-side and server-side code.
Photoshop is a totally separate graphics app for creating images, not code.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't see how you could use DW to build a PS plugin.

So they removed Pattern maker, and the Extract filters from Photoshop CS4

Personally I hardly ever used these, but did occasionally. I was wondering how this is going to affect others?
I don't see how removing two items from the filters menu makes much difference to anything. Maybe its more of a launch time issue, although I'm not sure that taking functionality away just to have fraction of a second faster launch, is a little daft.
They are still included on the CD, but this is going to inconvenience me if I ever need them in a freelance role. There were problems with both of them: When I first saw extract, it was almost as if the engineeers themselves hadn't woken up to non destructive editing. And pattern maker lacks the most obvious features, and doesn't perform particularly well. They are also both slow and cumbersome to use.
But
they do have other occasional uses beyond what they were (admittedly quite badly) designed for, especially pattern maker for reintroducing sampled texture sourced from the image. I don't see much replacement for this

Regarding "Extract" and "PatternMaker":
If you really need them right now, just add the CS3 plug-ins into CS4 they will work as they always have.
Actually, John Nack has stated that those old plug-ins will be downloadable from the Adobe site if you need them.
>We've bitten the bullet with this release and have sent a number of features into retirement. Extract, Pattern Maker, Web Photo Gallery, Contact Sheet, Picture Package, and PDF Presentation have been removed from the default installation.
>
The latter four have been replaced by the Output module in Bridge CS4, and our intention is to replace Extract with features inside Photoshop (building on Refine Edge & more). All of these except PDF Presentation will remain available as optional installs (to be posted on Adobe.com), but over time they'll be phased out.

Camera RAW plug-in for Photoshop 8 Doesn't Work

I downloaded Camera RAW plug-in 5.6 following the instructions, for use with a Canon Rebel EOS xTi. The file downloaded and was pasted in the proper folder ( C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\Elements 8\File Formats\ ). And when the RAW file still didn't open I downloaded Camera RAW plug-in 6.2 and pasted in the same folder as above. When I couldn't access the plug-in from Photoshop Elements 8.0, I tried Help-Updates. I still can't access or open RAW files. How can I fix this problem?

Make sure you delete all previous versions of the 8bi file from the File Formats folder before you start.
Make sure you use the correct download link:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4810
Extract files from the download folder then drag or copy the new 8bi file into the File Formats folder.
You can confirm successful installation by opening Full Edit and clicking Help >>About Plug-in >>Camera Raw

There is no 64 bit TWAIN plug-in for Photoshop CS5?

I have downloaded the PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Mac_en_US dmg and opened up the "Optional Plug-Ins" and there is no TWAIN driver for 32_64bit.
My Epson Perfection 4990 Photo works fine stand alone. I installed an upgrade for it (the driver) so I have the latest and it is suppose to work with 32 or 64 bit. Photoshop CS5 does not recognize the 32bit_only version downloaded plug-in when I copy it into the Plug-Ins/Import-Export folder.
So how can I get my Epson to be recognized in Photoshop CS5 under File -> Import.? I did have it working in CS4 but CS5 needs a 64bit version and I don't see how to get that and I'm stuck. Would buying Silverfast bridge this problem?

To have this option simply eliminated doesn't make Ps easier to use for those who scan this way.
Just to be clear, this option has not been eliminated in Photoshop; you can still scan directly in Photoshop within the constraints I've mentioned elsewhere recently, but will post again:
(1) You need to install the optional TWAIN plugin, which you can download from the Adobe web site. This plugin is not installed by default. Make sure you have the correct TWAIN plugin, the TWAIN plugin from CS4 will not work in Photoshop CS5, and vice versa.
(2) In Photoshop CS5, you can scan in 64-bit mode if you are running Snow Leopard (10.6.x), and the scanner manufacturer has released a 64-bit compatible TWAIN driver. So far, most TWAIN drivers are not 64-bit compatible (the only ones I know of are for more recent Canon scanners.) Check the scanner manufacturer's web site for the latest information. You can launch Photoshop in 32-bit mode to use a TWAIN driver that is not 64-bit compatible.

Found a good cursor/icon editor plug-in for Photoshop

I've been trying to edit cursors and icons, and Photoshop doesn't natively support .ico or .cur file formats. After being disappointed with the available stand-alone cursor editor programs, I began searching for Photoshop plug-ins.
The best plug-in I found is ICO (Windows Icon) file format plugin for Photoshop, from Australia.
I had to research setting the icon "hot spot" in order to have the hot spot at other than the upper left corner of the icon. This involves resetting the ruler origin. You need to have the rulers visible, and displaying in pixel units (right click in cursor and select pixel units).
Drag diagonally from the upper left corner of the rulers to where you want the new origin (0,0) to be. photoshop tutorial- Rulers, Measure tool, Guides, & Grids.I
I used this new-found tool in CS5 to make a new Windows aero cursor with a transparent yellow circle around the cursor arrow (in order to be able to easily find the cursor location anywhere on my screen), and the tip of the arrow is the hot spot.

If you have a 64 bit version of windows, there is no more TWAIN in PSE 13, only in the 32-bit version and the mac version.
