Photoshop Elements file info font size

The text size in Photoshop elements is rather small. By Text I mean the font size for commands. I can live with it most of the time but when adding text to the File Info field I find it very hard to read and check spellling. Is there any way to increase font size or magnify what one sees. For example in Windows, Control Panel, Display I can adjust the display font size but that seems to have no effect in PE. Any ideas?

Yes, even if you set the UI font size to 200%, that has no effect on the font size of the Information dialog in the editor.
My suggestion is to use the Organizer to input your information. I have set the font size in Windows (not in Elements) to 125% for my 1920 x 1200 24" display.
It's comfortable to input file properties in the Information panel on the right. For the IPTC data, click on the icon with three dots to open the IPTC dialog.

Photoshop CC Tracking, Kerning, font size MESSED UP

The Photoshop CC Tracking, Kerning, font size is MESSED UP.
If you try to adjust anything by scrubbing it makes a huge number like 40000....
holding ALT doesn't help either... Need a fix for this fast!

I don't want to hijack this thread, but I'm experiencing an issue that is different, but may be related. It is with the same area in Photoshop CC, but the bug I'm getting is a little different:
I don't have to scrub, I can just type a number like 50 for tracking, and when I hit enter, it changes to 11. 100 changes to 23. 200 changes to 47. If I scrub, I can scrub to a super high number like 6876, and when I release the mouse, it changes to 262. Scrubbing to 336 changes to 12 upon release.
coincidentally, typing in 6876 and 336 gives me results of 1650 and 80 respectively - so apparently when I type in a number it changes to approximately a quarter of its value, but not exactly, where as scrubbing gives me around 1/26th or 1/28th the value. The values given are consistent each time when I type in a number. 200 tracking always converts to 47 for some reason - I don't know about scrubbing..
This started without resizing the text. I just used the T tool. Typed some characters, and then tried adjusting the tracking.
When scrubbing other settings like Font Size and Leading I get this same effect where it jumps down to a much lower number than set. If I manually type in a font size, it works appropriately.
This happened in CS6 and CC. I don't recall what I was working on in the past when this occurred, but today when it started, I am working in Adobe CC on a file that had been created in CS4 or 5, I believe. When I create a new Adobe CC document, I do not experience the issue immediately, but I don't know exactly what the trigger is for the bug.

The box in my Photoshop Elements, which shows the size and types of brushes has shrunk to one unreadable line. How do I expand the box to its original size? I have tried dragging it open but nothing moves.

Well, when you open the program, the splash screen, the window you see while the program is opening, should make that clear enough. For example:

Installing photoshop elements associated/changed all files on computer to photoshop elements files

I purchased Photoshop Elements for my mother while home during Thanksgiving. When I installed it on her computer, it changed all the files on her computer to photoshop Elements files, or rather, it associated all files to photoshop elements. I am sure this is an operating system issue. Can someone tell me why this is happening and give me a cure? She uses Windows 7. It is a 64 bit machine if that is important.
Thank you for any advice.

Photoshop Album to Photoshop elements File size issue

I have used album v2 for a few years, and only import proxy files from off-line media (CD/DVD) to keep the backup file small which makes it easier to keep 2 computers on the same page..(15000 image files = 6GB) I make a backup to a portable drive monthly, and restore to 2nd pc.. etc
I have converted the catalogue into elements 9 succesfully, and it correctly points to the relevent discs if I need the full res files.
My question is.. Can I do this sort of import in Photoshop Elements 9? In album there was a check box for keeping the files off-line during import and to name the disc for reference , but I cant see this in elements... Perhaps I am missing something obvious..
Looking through the dialoge boxes, I wonder if you import the full res file, then move/copy to disc leaving behind the proxy...
I am on the trial, and dont want to buy if its not what I want..
Apologies if this topic is listed elsewhere.. I have looked, but cant find one..
Thanks for any pointers,

I'm not sure but it sounds a lot like the question I posed to the forum a little later today. It may be that the newer versions of PSE are not compatible with transfering all the Categories, Sub Categories and Tags from versions up to PSE 10. I am presently using PSE 10 because I couldn't figure out how to save all the organization I have put into Elements over the past 10 years or so.
I'm hoping for an answer to my question.

Photoshop changes file info xmp metadata - unknown to public domain?

Curious if anyone has feedback or solution for the following:
My PSD file's metadata enters photoshop with "unknown" as the copyright status, and then after I save it in a new format or with a new name
, I notice that in Bridge the copyright status shows up incorrectly as "public domain." This is incorrent and should not change on
its own. I've been using Photoshop with Bridge for many years, and have never seen this...

I have a script that the user runs to input xmp data into a Customized version of the generic file info panel. it is data that is gathered from the user when the psd file is created. once the file is open in photoshop. the information is visible in the File info panel , the raw data, and as a schema addition in the advanced tab.
in CC the nodes and the children of the XMP packet have changed positions. so that the XML -this.XMP.child(0).appendChild(this.createNode())
is no longer the node that can be appended.
Where XML.child(0).elements().length(); would enable the xmlns to be added in CS6
<rdf:Description xmlns:phsa="' + this.namespace + '" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" rdf:about="" />'
it is visible in CC as namespace in a different arrangement. XML.child(0).child(0).namespaceDeclarations().toString()) and the children are XML.child(0).child(0).elements().length().toString()); There are now 7 child nodes where before there were 1.
with all shifted, the initialize of the values and the delete XMP packet wrapper and create new or the amend to the XMP packet wrapper is undefined.

Can I get Photoshop Elements 6 Info into PE7?

I've got my videos tagged and captioned in a Photoshop Elements 6 catalog. Can I get that keyword and caption data into Premiere Elements 7? I can definitely get the video clips into PE, but want the other info too for cataloging purposes. Thanks in advance for your help!

Until proven otherwise, my answer to your question is No.
I have Photoshop Elements 6 and Premiere Elements 4 as well as Photoshop Elements 7 and Premiere Elements 7 installed on my Windows XP desktop. If I tag videos in Photoshop Elements 7 and send those video over to Premiere Elements 7, the videos with tags travel great. However, if I tag videos in Photoshop Elements 6 and send those videos over to Premiere Elements 7, the videos travel but without the tags that I placed in Photoshop Elements 6 Organizer.
I believe the issue evolves around a non integrated set as well as the fact that I believe Photoshop Elements 6 probably has a different Organizer format (ODBC database format) than the Organizer in Premiere Elements 7 (SQLite database format). I have not found a way in Premiere Elements 7 (File Menu/Catalog) to workaround this issue. Neither have I found a way to convert the Photoshop Element 6 catalog in Photoshop Elements 6 to make the transfer of tags along with the video. Even if I could, I would need to think further into the possibility that the converted catalog would no longer be useable in Photoshop Elements 6.
Right now I am pondering two possibilities for you:
a. Upgrade your Photoshop Elements 6 to Photoshop Elements 7 so that you will have an integrated set (Photoshop Elements 7/Premiere Elements 7)
and/or
b. See if you can add and tag your videos to the Premiere Elements 7 Organizer and leave Photoshop Elements 6 catalog for your photos.
I am going to explore possibility "b" to see how that works out. I do not use the Organizer of either Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements to any great extent, but you question interested me and got me wondering.

How to save a Photoshop PDF file with fonts that can be detected in Acrobat?

We created a PDF file using Photoshop CS5, for the purpose of using it as a watermark on documents. We saved this file as Photoshop PDF file, but for some reason the fonts cannot be detected when the file is opened in Adobe Acrobat.
We need it to be recognized by Acrobat so that we can easily add the watermark to documents on a regular basis.
Right now, Acrobat cannot detect the fonts in this file -- even though it is a basic font like Arial -- so when we add the watermark to a document, the fonts in the watermark becomes very degraded in appearance.
Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

I've tried several settings when saving as a PDF, to try to produce a file with fonts that can be detected by Acrobat. I tried the presets listed in guide: Photoshop Help | Saving PDF files
But none have worked.
I cannot use PNG because it is not one of the formats that Acrobat allows for a watermark. And JPG doesn't work because I need transparency.

Adobe CMM and Photoshop CS4 File Info problems

I installed the Adobe Color Management Module several days ago.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3618
Today when I opened the File Info dialog in Photoshop CS4,I got a blank black window. Same went for the Kuler window and other extensions under the Window menu. Other panels such as the palettes and toolbox were fine.
I went through reset prefs,reinstalled PS,and reinstalled my video driver.
Same problems.
Uninstalled the Adobe CMM and the panels returned to normal.
I don't know exactly what happened,but something this forum should know about.

Chris,I downloaded and reinstalled the CMM and the problem repeated.
File Info: blank, as well as the Kuler, and Connect extensions under the Windows menu. Additionally,any custom panels installed via Configurator also went blank.(although I had uninstalled those on my first round of troubleshooting)
Again as soon as I uninstalled the CMM,I got the File Info, Kuler, and Connect windows back.
This is on a Toshiba A205-S5843 running Vista SP1
I also tried the CMM on a Toshiba A75 (Windows XP)with a trial of CS4 Extended. There were no problems on that configuration with the CMM installed.
I don't know what it is,but thought it should be passed along.

Photoshop CS2 File Info Templates fill in all pages, not just it's own

I just purchased an Acer Laptop computer, has an AMD 64x2 Dual Core Processor, 2GB of DDR2 Ram, 160GB hard drive with Windows Vista Home Premium preinstalled. I'm not sure how any of this could be of any help, though.
I've just installed Photoshop CS2, Neat image noise remover, Nik sharpener, and Huey pro calibrator on it.
This is to be a second computer to a Dell desktop, that will be used when out of town and we want to work on our images.
Today we opened Photoshop CS2 and tried to work on some Raw images. We were just going to crop them and fill in the File Info on them then save them to jpeg.
The cropping went fine. When we tried to enter file info and save the Metadata Templates we had trouble. There are 7 of 12 different pages of info that can be changed, the other 5 can't be, I think. Anyway, we were filling in the Description, IPTC Contact, ITPC Content, IPTC Image and IPTC Status pages. We saved the IPTC Contact page as a Metadata Template.
The first image went fine, but when we opened other images, and typed in the information it all changed back to the information on the first image we did when the saved Contact template was used. When we saved the IPTC template for the first image it save the information on all of the pages, not just the Contact page. When we realized this, I started playing around with it and whatever template was saved last will give you all the information typed in on all pages that was there when that template was saved. I also checked the Photoshop CS2 installed on the Dell Desk Top and it is working correctly. We have templates for Description, IPTC Contact, and IPTC Image saved on it. These will give you the information on the individual page not all.
Why would it be doing this on the Laptop and more importantly, how can I fix it?
I sure hope this makes sense and do apologize for the length of it. Thanks in advance for any help I can get. Linda

I was having a similar problem - I was saving an SVG from Illustrator, only to find that when I tried to open it or place it back in Illustrator, I got the error "This SVG is Invalid. Validate it before opening."
You can run the SVG through the W3C validator, remove all the parts causing errors using a simple text editor like Notepad, and then Illustrator should be able to open it. This is a laborious process though if you have a lot of SVGs to save.
After a discussion with Apple support, I learned that it was actually one of my graphics in the Illustrator file that was causing the issue. I had placed an SVG I received from a co-worker, changed the colors, and was trying to save it as an SVG again, but for some reason I kept getting that error, even when I tried save other icons/layers in the same document. When I deleted the two layers that were corrupt, the Save As SVG worked perfectly, no errors when opening the file.
I don't know details, but if you are getting this error, try the Flatten Transparency thing like witkacy suggests. If you're still having problems, it may be caused by an SVG you placed in your file. After a little bit of trial and error, you may be able to find the culprit. You may then have to re-create the graphic yourself (like I did). Converting it to outlines or a shape or something may work as well, but I'm not sure.
Hope this helps someone else!

Photoshop CS5 'file info' pemissions problem

I recently had to replace the had drive and reinstall Photoshop CS5. I used to be able to access the file info box and add metadata or read the camera settings. Now the file info box loads but the fields are not available. if I log out and use the guest account on my Mac it works fine so Adobe support told me it is a permissions issue that prevents the box from loading. I have no idea where to correct this.
I am running Photoshop at 32 bit so my scanner will work, but I tried it at both 32 & 64, but the file info box doesn't load regardless of this setting. I also tried unistalling & reinstalling Photoshop. I have obviously messed up a user permissions setting somewhere but I don't know where to fix it.
Here is a screen capture showing the two views. The top is logged into my usual account and bottom is on the guest account.Thanks for any suggestions!

Old photoshop elements files?

I am using photoshop elements 10, I have old files from previous versions of photoshop elements. Can I delete these old files without effecting my current version of photoshop elements 10?

All versions of PSE point to the same images on your hard drive or external drive; so it really makes no difference.

Massive ASL photoshop elements files 25gb each, appeared overnight

Hello
Quick question if I may.
I have Photoshop elements on my mac (running leopard) and its created 3 enormous ASL style files - in excess of 25gb each file.
I've no idea where these have come from - they were created in the past few days.
Does anyone know what they are and where they have come from?
I've trashed them but am just intrigued as to how my machine has filled 80gb of disk space by itself.
Thanks

OK, I know it is confusing, but they are log files created by the asl manager, new in 10.5.6 (and the quirks and bugs that came with this is why I'm still running 10.5.5 on my working drive). Because they have the ".asl" manager extension, and you have Photoshop Elements installed, which proclaims that one its file types is ".asl" the Finder claps the appropriate Photoshop icon on the files. And if you double click the file, Elements will actually launch, and then make an announcement or two about the files not being correct. But they are not in fact Elements files, they are a new sort of log file.
You can safely trash them. You may be able to catch the culprit that is creating them in the act by launching Console, click the icon in the toolbar to Show Logs, and click on the All Messages, and see if you can spot something writing constant error messages. You might be able to read the new ones in the Log Files->/var/log section (I'm running 10.5.5 right now, so can't check). The problem can be the aslmanager itself. Do a search here in the Leopard forum on aslmanager for more information.
