Photoshop scanned art, to Freehand file.

How do I take photoshop scanned (JPEG, TIFF?) image and copy and paste it into a Freehand 10 document? Do I need a converter? what DO I need? help anyone that can help . . .appreciate it.   To explain more. . .I drew a small art logo, scanned it into Photoshop, turned it into a JPEG, and want to COPY it onto the clipboard and PASTE it into a FREEHAND 10 file to create some business cards for myself.  Is this possible?

Hi again Kay (and yes it is a great name!)
There should be no drop shadow by default so there is probably one of two things going on either 1) you have a drop shadow already applied in Photoshop or 2) you inadvertently applied a drop shadow after importing, select the raster image and check the 'Object' inspector palette, if you see 'drop shadow' in that palette just select it and click the 'trash' icon.

  • BIG PROBLEM.....Flash CS5 won't recognise Freehand files

    Hi,
    CS5 upgrade installed onto a PC that has not sseen Flash before.
    Freehand files (FH9) that import to Library in Flash Pro8, when I try for same in CS5 the fh9 file is not recognised. One or more files were not imported as there problems reading them, the message says.
    I have a number of those that work in Flash8, same message, so its not a corrupted file.
    I then opened the fh9 file into Freehand MX and saved it. I tried importing that, still no joy.
    Using Flash CS5 for the first time, the Import to Library browser window didnt show any files, I thought that a bit odd, then selected show all files and it showed the fh files.
    It won't import them though !
    Help !

    pgmeier rules!
    I downloaded what you mentioned and have both good and bad news.....the zipped file has only  twain32 (hoping to get twain64) but at least this is another positive step forward and another workaround for me.  I noticed the same twain32 plug-in is also in the Win64 folder.  Just for giggles I deposited twain32 into both the c:\Program Files (x86)   and c:\Program Files .......if I call up PS 32-bit I can now scan via twain but alas no joy when I attempt the same using PS 64-bit
    Only way is still ..  Import --> Wia support  if you have your heart set on using PhotoShop 64-bit
    I am amazed Adobe didn't even put thought into why a twain64 plug-in is a requirement for the real world....there are still many of out out here that still use flatbed scanners on ocassion to import graphics!

  • Photoshop cs5 is not appending file extensions

    in previous versions, photoshop appended to the file extension in the fiel save/save as dialog box.  it no longer does this and when you save a file it does not append the file extension to the file name, resulting in unknown fiel type. 
    i am running windows 7 64-bit with photoshp cs5. 
    it does not make any since to have the option of appending the file extension if the program is not going to do it.

    Just tried this out on my Windows 7 64 bit system, and I get the same results using Photoshop.
    When I save a file in Photoshop CS5 64 bit with the name 047. Crayon - Abstract the file is saved as 047. Crayon - Abstract without a file extension, no matter what document type I select in the drop-down.
    In Word I get the expected result:
    When I save a file in Word with the name 047. Crayon - Abstract the extension is automatically added (047. Crayon - Abstract.docx)

  • No longer have a system that can run Freehand but have 1000's of old Freehand files. Can I convert them to something CC can open, like AI?

    I had a graphic design business for 10 years and at the time found Freehand to be the best solution.  Now I'm an InDesign convert but many of the old freehand files I wish I could open and convert to something in CC.  I need to rebuild my portfolio and many of those old Freehand files are great works of art.  I no longer have a system that will run Freehand, is there something I can run that would convert these files to Illustrator or something usable.  I wish adobe would at least make a patch so I can run it on my Mac long enough to get the key files I want.  Anyone have any suggestions or am I just screwed and 10 years of art is gone...

    Your timing is actually good! This plugin was released this month for doing what you need into Illustrator CC:
    Tensai FH>AI Plugins
    As to InDesign, I have been using FreeHandMX to export my files to PDF and trying out these two converters:
    PDF2DTP | Markzware
    PDF to InDesign converter
    The Markzware converter seems better and they have been eager to hear from FreeHand users. Where conversion isn't exact is text and takes some tweaking. Also any problems Illustrator had with converting FreeHand files shows up in InDesign.
    As for running FreeHand on the latest Macs, virtualization with Parallels and Fusion running Snow Leopard is successful and seamless. Also using WIN versions of FreeHand with CrossWeaver and WINE on Mavericks.

    When I scan a file in Photoshop Elements 10 the default file type is always BMP.  Is there anyway to make it default to JPEG?  I work with a lot of files and having to change each one is an extra step I would like to get rid of.  Thanks

  • Converting FreeHand Files to native .ai

    If all you have is CS6 how do you convert old FreeHand files to native .ai?
    I used FreeHand for 15 years and I can't simply give a finger to my archive of art just because Adobe makes a dumb-*** call and doesn't bother to create a simple drag and drop FREE app for FreeHand users that'll convert a file.
    I don't care about retaining fonts or placed images I just need access to the vector art in my old FreeHand files.
    Any suggestions other than "Re-install CS5." which isn't an option.
    Thanks.

    Where to start... if you haven't been to the FreeHand Forums then a lot of news is there. As was mentioned on another thread here, running FreeHand MX in virtualization with Parallels (Mac or Windows versions) or Sheepshaver (MacOS9) is possible for Mac users on 10.7 and 10.8...see this video. And Windows PC users can still run FHMX fine. Also, the company, Quasado is underway with its FreeHand-like app. There is more but the point is, even if Macromedia's FreeHand won't go any further, other options will make life easer for FreeHanders.

  • Photoshop Elements 8-Change of file format when saving deletes filename

    I have been using Photoshop Elements 8 since last May and have always been irritated that when I add text to a photo it always defaults to PSD format for saving.  I have gone to the preference options to see if I can set jpg as the default and it does not offer that option.  This means that every time I save after adding text I have to manually select jpg to get the format to change.
    Although this has been a pain, I have done it thousands of times as I have edited photos.
    My problem is that suddenly from one day to the next when I change from PSD option to jpg the filename disappears and I have to go back and manually type in the whole filename.  The only changes to my computer settings that I can think of that might have affected this is that Microsoft Updates had 2 updates.  First was Definition for Windows Defender-KB915597 and the other was Unpdate for Windows 7 for x64 based systems-KB97690.
    I saw a similar problem posted by sandwitch2 on Feb. 13th about PSE6.  99jon suggested the change to permissions of adding "everyone".  I tried this and it did not correct the problem.
    Any other suggestions are welcome.
    I have found Adobe's insistance on saving as PSD irritating to say the least in the past.  The inability to change this in preferences has made me very unhappy, but the quality of their product has outweighed the hoops they make me jump through until this.  Their search feature in support is pretty much worthless.  It either brings up nothing if you keyword is to limiting or brings up 200 responses if it if too broad.
    I have been a user of Photoshop Elements for over 6 years updating as new editions have come out. I am to the point that if I can't get this current problem fixed I am uninstalling Elements 8 and going to another software.  Adobe's proprietary requirements and poor support page are just too much of a pain to deal with.

    I was told that if I save in PSD if I send the photos to share with others only those with Photoshop Elements can open the files.  That is why I try to use jpg.  Is that true?
    Thanks for all the help from both of you,
    Bettye

  • Photoshop crashes when loading a file or image

    Using Photoshop cs3 on a PC with Windows 7 installed.
    Major Problem: Photoshop gives no response when opening an image of any sort or psd file which ends out with the options to either close the program or close and find a solution online which gives no solution whatsoever.
    PScs3 was working just fine when installed but after installing an NVIDIA plug-in did it start bearing some problems. When loading png files, a window normally appears telling me that Photoshop could not parse the file. After seeing this I went to uninstall the plug-in. The problem seemed to went away but shortly after was Photoshop crashing at random, and I do mean random. Starting Photoshop at first seems to nullify the chances of crashing but after either a short period of time or a long period of time will it crash when trying to open a file. Opening multiple files at once doesn't work either but when opening only one file into PScs3 will it cooperate until opening a second. I'm not sure if the plug-in is what caused the problem but I do know everything from there seems hectic. Every crash leads me opening PScs3 again with all of its settings reset from when I first exited normally.
    Plugin Used:
    Photoshop_Plugins_8.23.1101.1715
    Appications Type; 4,317 KB
    Company - InstallShield Softwere Corporation
    Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program?
    Unfortunetly yes I have attempted this and the problem still occurs towards cs3. This makes me fear that the entire program is glitched.
    Do you have any other plug-ins installed?
    I've checked and there are no other plug-ins attatched.
    This is my last option before seeing to reformat my computer. If there is any input about the topic, now is the time.

    Just a hunch: change your default printer to something else (a locally attached printer, not networked) or "PrintToPDF", then relaunch Photoshop and try again.
    It could also be a plugin (try disabling ALL third party plugins).
    And it could be a bad OS install, a virus, etc.  It may take a while to find.

  • Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS without saving the file

    When I do "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS" of a RAW file, LR saves a TIFF or PSD file first, then opens it with PS CS. LR should give an option to forward the picture to PS CS through some in-memory inter-process communication, as opposed to saving the photo from LR and re-open it from PS CS. It might be much faster.
    In case, I understand LR would not give the option to stack the edited file with the RAW file.

    >all I want to do is run an action in PS that converts to jpg with a particular filter applied.
    Then turn it into a droplet (you do know how to do that?) and put it in the Exprt Actions Folder and call for it in a Export Preset set for the JPEG you want.
    LR will then on Export run the droplet and save to the folder of your choice.

    How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac?
    Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • HP Officejet 4315 with Windows 7 - How to scan into a .pdf file?

    My Officejet under HP Solutions software worked wonderful at scanning files into .pdf with Windows Vista.  Now that I have an upgraded computer with Windows 7, I've found that HP Solution is no longer available and I have to use the Windows Scan and fax software which is very limited.  It only lets me scan into 4 different file types - .bmp, .tif, .gif and .jpeg.  None of my usual contacts can read and open the files I send them now.  What can be done here to allow me to do business as usual?  The only way around this that I've found is I can scan with Windows Paint and then insert the 'picture' into a word file which I can then convert to .pdf, but the quality goes way down, not to mention my time to do this goes way up.

    OK, only solution I've found is to use a 3rd party program - try cutePDF. 
    Thanks for nothing HP!

    Hello pf1tarac, I don't believe that is possible. In order to create a PDF file, you would need Adobe Acrobat or some other PDF compatible product to save a scan to the PDF format.
    There are some free PDF programs available.  Here  is a link to one of them.

  • Photoshop CS4 won't recognize file and won't save

    Help!  I have Photoshop CS4.  I have had trouble in the past with photoshop not recognizing my raw files from Nikon (NEF).  Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.  Now I can't get PS to save any file, jpeg or ps.  Can anyone help me please?

    Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/419981?tstart=0
    • What exact version of Ps CS4 are you using?  11.0.2?
    • Exact version of the OS?
    • You are not working over a network, are you?
    • Have you tried creating a fresh, new account and logging in as a different user?
    • Have you Repaired Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility?
    • Check the read and write permissions on the folder(s) and volume(s) to which you are attempting to save.
    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.
