Photoshop CS5 jpegs being resampled on import to another program?

I just installed Photoshop CS5 yesterday.  If I save an image as a jpeg at, say, 300 dpi, when I import it into CorelDraw the image is being resampled to 72 dpi, so instead of, say, the correct 5x7" image @ 300dpi importing I get a 20x30" image @ 72dpi.
I've being using Photoshop CS3 for a couple of years 9and CS2 and CS before that) and jpegs imported into CorelDraw always retain their correct dpi/size.  Why is CS5 causing this to happen?
I have tested with exactly the same image in both CS3 and CS5 and the new program is the only one causing the problem.
Images saved in CS5 as a PSD file retain the correct dpi/size on import to Corel - the issue is only with jpegs.
As I produce a lot of images that go into Corel for print work, CS5 is currently unuseable for me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Dave

You're saving to JPEG as an intermediate step for your workflow?  You realize that incurs some visual defects, as JPEG compression is lossy, right?
Isn't there another format you could choose that would do the job and both avoid the JPEG compression and give you the proper sizing?  And is there no dialog in FlexiSign or the other software to allow you to control the import size?  If not, it sounds like pretty brain-damaged software, frankly...
Adherence to standards is important, or we end up with a hodgepodge of stuff that just doesn't work in any fashion.  Far too many developers create software that just barely works, basing its decisions on some info that they just found laying around.  With the Internet available today there's simply no excuse for that.  Blame Photoshop if you want, but no one but you chose to buy new professional software that's keeping up with standards while trying to continue to use other software that's based on smoke and mirrors.

Edit:  Wow, I looked up FlexiSign.  You're saying you paid thousands of dollars for this software, and you aren't willing to even ask them whether they have a patch to fix their software to be compliant?

    For single use when having pointed the cursor on that file with right mouse

  • Photoshop CS5.1 Multiple Brush Preset Import

    Hi there,
    I assumed that simply copying my brushes to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1\Presets\Brushes would mean that these files would now be available to me. However, this is not working for me. Am I copying my brushes to the incorrect location? When I open up the Brush chooser panel, only the default brush sets are available.
    Now, I can add brushes in the preset manager, but this only lets me add one set at a time and does not organize them for me into sets. There must be a better way to do this.
    I'm on Win7 btw.
    Thanks.

    Copying them to the presets folder means they are available to load, it doesn't mean that they'll all get loaded at once!
    Just use the menu on any of the brush pickers, the preset manager, or the brushes palette to load those files.

  • Photoshop CS5 becomes unresponsive when switching programs?

    Photoshop CS5 becomes unresponsive if I switch to another program (ie acrobat, word, google chrome). The menu's still work, but pan, zoom, move, etc. have no effect on the image.  I have to save and restart to make the program work correctly and it will do it again as soon as I switch to another window.  I'm not sure what this issue would be called (maybe a redraw error), but does anyone have an idea of how to fix this?

    Without system information nobody can advise specifically, but sounds like graphics issues. Update your graphics driver.

  • Is there a way to edit the same RAW file in Aperture 3 and then Photoshop CS5?

    I recently got Aperture 3.4.5 and its been great for stream-lining my workflow.  But for certain RAW adjustments, like applying a gradient, I want to use Photoshop CS5's RAW editing window.  I don't seem to be able to export the file as a modified CR2 from Aperture to Photoshop CS5.  Is there a way to do this?
    And if exporting a modified CR2 from aperture is not possible, what advice can you give me for applying gradients in aperture, or in combinations with photoshop.  Is there a way to open a JPEG or TIFF in the raw editing window by any chance?
    Any and all advice welcome.  Cheers!
    -Mike

    Is there a way to open a JPEG or TIFF in the raw editing window by any chance?
    If you open Bridge and go into the Camera Raw Preferences, you will see a section at the bottom where you can set preferences for TIFF handling. Setting the option to 'Automatically open all supported TIFFs' will result in any TIFF file sent from Aperture to Photoshop via 'Edit with Photoshop CS5' function being launched in ACR and allow you to work on the TIFF file.
    You then have to open the image in Photoshop with the 'Open' button in ACR and save the file (making sure you have the TIFF file extension set when saving). I haven't used this in a while, but I think it may try to save as a '.tif' file which would not be seen by Aperture when you complete the save (and have a '.tif' file sitting in the Masters folder that has no connection).
    This is still not the RAW file - obviously - but will allow you to use the ACR tools on the TIFF file generated by Aperture and return it with those edits if saved correctly in PS CS5.

  • Photoshop CS5 (under Windows 7) crashes when I try to print

    Hi,
    I am running 64-bit Photoshop CS5 Extended upgraded to current version (12.0.4).
    When I try to print, every single time, I get the following error immediately:
         > Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working
              Windows is checking for a solution to the problem
    and then shortly after
         > Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working
              A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
              Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    Quite infuriating. My printer works fine. I can print photos to it from Lightroom no problem (which, in this occasion, I had to do - saved from PS, imported to LR, then printed... very efficient!!).
    I note there are other posts on this but they seem to be mostly Mac and also many seem to cure by upgrading to 12.0.4.
    I am a relatively light user (keen amateur not professional) so I don't use PS regularly. However this also means it is pretty much an out-of-the-box install since I don't tinker with it either. It's so long since I last used it I can't remember if I had this problem last time - I vaguely recall having had it sometimes but not others. Doesn't seem to matter whether the file I opened is a JPG or a PSD (the only two I have tried).
    Any help out there?
    Thanks

    So if we have say, 10 or so printers with 10 different drivers and every application works with every printer, including Photoshop.
    And we apply an update to Photoshop.
    And now Photoshop crashes everytime we print regardless of what printer we pick, but a previous version of Photoshop is still able to print.
    Do all the printer drivers suddenly have bugs . . . or could it possibly be the common denominator, i.e Photoshop, that has the bug?
    Everyone who is having this issue of Photoshop crashing when you try to print after a change/update.
    Try this:
    DO NOT MERELY ATTEMPT TO PRINT EXISTING FILES.
    Start a fresh document and attempt to print that.
    If you can print any file created AFTER the change/update but cannot print any files created BEFORE the change/update, this indicates that Photoshop is retaining file attributes that are not compatible with printing after the change/update.
    How can these attributes be replaced with compatible attributes? Changing the default printer as mentioned above may do the trick.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 has stopped working with (Wacom CINTIQ21UX)

    Has this been addressed?
    I have been following this thread pretty closely
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/633937?tstart=0
    It clears up the issue with multiple screens but doesnt address the issue with Adobe Photoshop CS5 not being able to load with the latest Wacom Cintiq 6.1.5-3a driver. I have tried the 6.1.2-5 driver able to load photoshop CS5 and calibrate my pen. but Photoshop wont recognize pressure sensitivty, rotation, tilt, any of the brush settings from the drop down it flags a caution yield sign, which is better than not having any pen.
    Just wanted to know if someone found a way around it. or if Adobe or Wacom is actually working on a patch to address the error. At this point I am thinking about reverting back to Adobe Photoshop CS3.

    My scenario and history:
    Windows Vista Ultimate and now Windows 7 Ultimate
    NVidia Quadro Fx 4500 driving 4 monitors total SLi on or off - makes no difference.  Drivers irrelevant.
    2 x Xeon 5160 (so total 4 cores)
    24Gb RAM
    PS CS 4 or 5
    4 monitors - - yep it is the 4 monitor thing.
    Fails everytime as you describe.
    Observation - If you Remote Desktop Connection onto the computer - and so in effect are using only ONE monitor - PS works fine.
    A WORKAROUND for 4 or 5 - I don't consider this a fix because you lose some functionality but it gets you 99% there and is the same workaround for CS4 or 5
    Go to<drive>:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64bit)\Plug-ins\Extensions\    (or CS4 - depending on version)
    Locate File:
    ScriptingSupport.8li
    Disable this extension by renaming the file with a tilde in front of the file name.  Thus:
    ~ScriptingSupport.8li
    Start Photoshop - it works and is mainly functional.
    The only real downside I have discovered is that disabling this scripting extension means you cannot use some of the built in scripts under FILE - SCRIPTS - the biggest PIA for me being the Contact Sheet builder no longer works.  But as I now use Lightroom to create contact sheets - this is not a big loss.  Other scripting functionality - I am sure is affected - but not to a point I find PS unusable.
    ADOBE - if you read this - it has been that extesion now for the last two editions of PS.

  • Photoshop CS5 crashes when using certain function

    Hi,
    I have just downloaded the trial version of Adobe CS5 and it appears to crash when you use specific tools.  Particularly the program crashes when I try to perform a photomerge or view System Info.  There is no exact error message except a generic message that says Photoshop CS5 stopped operating correctly by Windows.  I have tried both the 64 bit version and 32 bit version and have performed a reinstall with no sucess.  I believe I might stand a better chance with a deletion of the registry entry but am not sure what values I should delete upon the next reinstall.
    The other issue I have is that Photoshop CS5 seems to detect my 2nd GPU and not my primary GPU which does not allow me access to hardware acceleration along with the display profile for the third monitor.  Is there a way to have Photoshop CS5 only access one GPU and not another one (the task is only being executed on the monitors being driven by the one GPU)?
    System Info:
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
    CPU: Intel i7 920
    RAM: 6GB Triple Channel DDR3
    Graphics card (primary): ATi  4870 512MB GDDR5
    Graphics card (secondary - driving third monitor): Nvidia 6600GT 128MB
    No Anti-virus program or firewall is installed on this PC.  No other tasks are operating when I perform the specified tasks above.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry to make this thread so hastly, but I resolved the issue.  I simply disabled my 2nd video card and it is now operating properly.  Not happy about having my 3rd monitor disabled (run all other tasks not linked to Photoshop in there) so hopefully this will eventually be addressed in the future.
    Thanks.

  • Catolog/Index Images in Photoshop CS5

    Being new to using Photoshop CS5 is there a way to catalog or create an index of all my images within PS CS5?  Right now I am backing up my image folders to cd's to store off site but with numerous cd's I don't remember what's on each CD unless I manual create a list/index or spreadsheet.  Someone mention that PS CS5 does this, but I haven't seen anythng in the menus that looks like this function.  Can this be done in PS CS5 or do I need to aquire another program to do this?
    Thanks
    Jim

    Information given is very helpful and something I would/will use.  Was hoping that I could this for two or more folders on a CD, instead of one pdf contact for each folder.  And maybe I'm not explaining this correct.  For example on a cd I have three folders and in each folders are images that I have name for the subject so I don't have to open each image to see what it is (example - folder JIM_Bday and in the folder are named images of jim_dbay1, jim_bday2 and etc,,).  This naming practice is used for all folders, sub-folders and image names.  Since I have 50 cd's containing different subject images and etc was looking for a inventory/catalog that would list what is contained on each cd.  Maybe this is as simple as doing a DOS dir and then piping that into excel.  But then maybe it would be better to create a contact pdf for reach folder.

  • Hi I am trying to download adobe photoshop cs5 on my new desktop computer

    Hi I am trying to download adobe photoshop cs5 on my new desktop computer.  The program was purchased several years ago so I called Adobe the other day and had them walk me through how to download on my new computer. I have done all the steps and it downloaded into my downloads folder however not it will not install. It is saying my security preferences allow installations of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers.  ???? I don't know how to go about changing these settings? Please help!

    You should be able just to either right click on the installer or Control click and choose Open and then the installer should work.
    (that temporarily overrides the security settings)

    Here is a screenshot of what as comes up when i try to open a .DDS file
    How do I fix this?

    There are separate plugin folders for 32 and 64 bit (because of Microsoft rules).

  • I just bought a brand new Photoshop CS5.

    I just bought a brand new Photoshop CS5. When I start the installing from the cd I have to type in my serial number, which is <serial number removed> The installer says "This serial number is used for Photoshop CS5" all is good. After installing the program, I start it for the first time. Then I have to type in my serial number again for Photoshop CS5 Extended Trial, but now it says "This serial number is not valid for this product".
    What is wrong? What am I doing wrong?

    I am guessing that you do not want to use the CS5 Extended version if you only purchased the non-extended version.  Serial numbers are product specific.  If you continue to have problems, contact Adobe support thru chat:
    Serial number and activation chat support (non-CC)
