Run Photoshop script from Bridge

Hi
I have a modified version of Image Processor script in photoshop scripting folder (it saves RAW files as smart objects) and would like to run it from Bridge (apply to selected images). Right now I can run script from File > Scripts Photoshop menu but not in Bride Tools > Photoshop
Thank you
The help will be appreciated

Its Not Adobe Code and its not shipped with Photoshop. Photoshop versions also has bugs in ScriptUI which is used by scripts with a dialog. Image Processor Pro 2.3.1 has some bugs. Some files formats its saves may have problems.
Russell Brown works for Adobe but he has been pulled away from Photoshop. Xbytor is the programmer that wrote Image Processor Pro he does not work for Adobe and he is feed up with Adobe for not fixing bugs in Photoshop scripting. He stated he will support Image Processor Pro for some time.
Russell web site has this. The Open Source code is now available for many of my script and panels
Because of new projects and a changing demand for my time, it will be necessary for me to move on to new projects at Adobe. For this reason I will no longer be able to support, or update many of my scripts and panels. Never fear! – I am releasing the source code for many of my programs and if you are a programmer then you can use this code to modify and change my scripts to meet your needs. If you are not a programmer then I recommend working with anyone on the list of programmers that I have supplied below. However! Let me make it clear that his code is not to be sold. This is an open and free source to be used for the good of humankind and Adobe Photoshop users around the world
===========================
I do not have a Mac or a Windows 8 machine to test on. On my Windows 7 PC Image Processor Pro 2.3.1 and newer versions run on CS6, CC and CC 2014.. X is still working on it

Running photoshop script or action from Bridge

My general question is: is there a way to select a number of files in Bridge, then run a script on all of them? I'm interested in this regardless of whether it really answers my more specific question.
My more specific need is: I want to be able to convert raw files to jpeg, using automatic camera raw settings, by selecting the files in Bridge and running a single script.
Thanks,
Mike

I have a slight change to this question.
I make changes to photos in Camera RAW (exposure, white bal, etc.)and save the changes.
I have an action that I run from Bridge by selecting individual photos, running an action from Bridge using Batch. The action opens each .CR2 selected photo, resizes it, and saves as a jpg in another folder.
For some reason, the saved photos are not reflecting the changes I made in Camera Raw.
I constructed the action by recording the opening from Bridge into Camera Raw, and then clicking Open Image.
The action applies all the custom settings I used in the initial image when recording the action to each photo.
Any suggestions on how to solve the problem.
Thanks for any help.

Call Photoshop script from Indesign script CS4 JS

Hi, I open Photoshop linked file from InDesign in Photoshop and I need same InDesign script to run Photoshop script on the file. How I can call the Photoshop script from InDesign script.
Thank you very much for your help.
Yulia

Thank you, Kasyan.
800 lines of script is little be intimidating.
What we are trying to achieve is to open jpgs in Photoshop and resave them as tiffs and replace same jpg with corresponding tiff in Indesign as it was placed before.
Is there a way to call Photoshop from Indesign through appleScript.
I have most of the script done for Indesign and I have Photoshop shript ready that saves jpgs as tiffs done. I am only missing the part where I can call this existing Ph. script from Indisign.
We prefer not to use BridgeTalk if possible, because we have a lot of programs open and running in the same time, and would like to avoid to open one more program (BridgeTalk).
Thank you very much for your great help.

When I run my script from a shortcut ExtendScript is invoked, but it is not when I run it the menu

I am using Photshop CS2 on Win XP
I have configured a keyboard shortcut (Crtl+Alt+P) to run a .jsx file from the ...\Presets\Scripts\ folder.
When I activate the script via the Keyboard Shortcut ExtendScript is invoked, and breaks execution on the main() statement (see below).
When I activate the script via the File/Scripts menu ExtendScript is not invoked and the script runs to completion.
The .jsx file is a wrapper for a .vbs script which does the 'real' work.
The .jsx is:-
function main()
var VBSscript=File("C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS2/Presets/Scripts/GGN_PS_Code_v1_2.vbs");
if(VBSscript.exists) VBSscript.execute();
main();
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to disable the invokation of ExtendScript when I run the script from the skortcut?

Thanks Paul.
I am out of the office at the moment, but your answer rings true. Certainly the .jsx extension is associated with ExtendScript. I'll delete the association and try again when I am back in the office.
Many thanks

IDCS5-win. Error while running a script from indesign(not via estk)

Hi all,
After running the script from indesign, I get following error
ASSERT '(engine->getDebugFlags() & ScScript::kExtendedErrors) == ScScript::kExtendedErrors' in ..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptRunner.cpp at line 412 failed.
..\..\..\source\components\script\javascript\JavaScriptRunner.cpp (412)
any idea about this?
The script runs fine when run from ES tool kit.
Thanks

Hi,
My colleague found the problem. We were using extendables library and we still haven't figured out what was actually happening, but removing it solved the problem.

How to run a script from Oracle Form (Beside using HOST command)

I would like to run a script from Forms 6.0. I know that we can actually issue this command :
host('plus80.exe' username/password@connect_string @c:\scriptname);
BUT, is there any other alternative ?

Sqlplus is a different program, so one way or the other you have to leave Forms to run sqlplus. What is you objection against HOST?
You can also run sqlplus from the database, but again you need a stored java procedure to call sqlplus (sort of HOST command that runs in the database).
Francois' solution works if your script just has a query to run, but if you have specific sqlplus commands (spool etc.) forms_ddl is probably not a solution.

Running SQLPLUS script from command prompt on SUN

We are making a migration from VMS to SUN ( SunOS 5.10) and from 9i to 10g. We have encountered an unanticipated problem with running scripts from the command line in SUN(SQLPLUS execution from the command line). All of our packages have a naming convention such as "DM$LOAD.PKB". I know it is a strange naming convention.
The problem is that when the package creation script is run in SQLPLUS at the command prompt SQLPLUS can not open the file.
SQL> @dm$load.pb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pb"
SQL> host ls
dm$load.pkb
SQL>
Setting the escape character does not seem to help.
SQL> set escape '\'
SQL>
SQL> @dm\$load.pb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pb"
SQL>
Unfortunately, we can not rename the scripts. This can be done from a shell script, but our Tech Services refuse to run the SQL scripts from a shell script
Any ideas on how to get SQLPLUS to run the scripts from the SUN command line?

I did not notice that the cut and paste was poor. It should have read
SQL> @dm$load.pkb
SP2-0310: unable to open file "dm$load.pkb"
SQL> host ls
dm$load.pkb
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Running sql scripts from different directory

Hi
I have sql scripts in different directories as follows:
D:\myapp\sql
- load.sql
- init.sql
D:\myapp\sql\schema
-users.sql
-structure.sql
D:\myapp\sql\populate\
- data1.sql
- data2/sql
load.sql call all the other scripts as below:
@init.sql
@schema\users.sql
@schema\structure.sql
@populate\data1.sql
@populate\data2.sql
All my scripts run correctly when I run load.sql from D:\myapp\sql on comand prompt.
I need a way to run this script from a different directory say D:\ or C:\
I am writing a installer which will execute from a different directory.
Right now I get a file not found error for scripts within schema an populate folder.
Please let me know how can I make this work from a different directory.
Thanks

Hi peter. i think you cannot run files spread across different locations.
--the method which u specified always looks to the defined path

Valid sesion for run jython script from a plan

If I run a cr_clij script i have to do
app.execStr('udb.login -u user -p password') once and do not produce the login information anymore.
It is possible to do the same with the sessionID, if I run the script from a plan on the BUI? Or do I have to add the '-s sessionID' option to all clui commands?
Thanks

Hi TemPart:
string cmdArg = “C:\\Scripts\\test.ps1″;
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline();
pipeline.Commands.AddScript(cmdArg);
Collection [PSObject] results = pipeline.Invoke(); // please Update [] bracket with less then and greater then bracket
runspace.Close();
Had to modify this slightly:
string cmdArg = “Powershell.exe -file C:\\Scripts\\test.ps1″;
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline();
pipeline.Commands.AddScript(cmdArg);
Collection [PSObject] results = pipeline.Invoke(); // please Update [] bracket with less then and greater then bracket
runspace.Close();
If this is helpful please mark it so. Also if this solved your problem mark as answer.

Run a script from a script

Can anyone help me run a script from a script to kill an event listener?
There is an event listener on save. The same script may be run multiple times before changing workflows (which require different sets of scripts).
The eventual goal is to have a time stamp in a specific text frame that will already have content. The new stamp will overwrite the old, and only happen before close. Right now it's set for "on save" because I can't figure out an if else statement for "before close". I don't want to have to end the session to be able to work different job types. I need to be able to kill the event listener when exiting documents that create one.
I'm throwing crap at the wall, hoping it will stick. I'm sure there's a better way to handle it. Anyone have ideas.

Here's the kind of thing I use:
function runShortRanges() {
    var shortRangesScript = File(getScriptPath().parent.parent + "/IndexExtras/ShortRanges.jsx");
    if (shortRangesScript.exists) {
      app.doScript(shortRangesScript);
In this case, I want to run a particular script in a known location, only if it exists. It's a way of adding optional functionality to a script.

Running ISA Scripts from SSL enabled IOP server?

When attempting to run a script from an SSL enabled IOP server, scripts no longer run.
Is there a setting to enable the script to utilize the appropriate SSL port?
Thank you.

Can you please elaborate some more information on the above post.

Running Oracle Scripts from Command Line

Hi,
How can i run Oracle scripts from command line.
Actually i need to run these scripts from MSBuild before running Unit test projects

C:\>sqlplus @myscript
That would be the easiest variation
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript
would be an often used variation
And then there is of course the version with parameter passing:
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript param1 ... paramx
Dunno about MSBuild

Running sqlplus scripts from Java code?

hi
I need to programmatically run sqlplus scripts from Java code on a machine that doesn't have sqlplus installed.
Is there any Java class library available for doing this?

The Ant approach could probably work for me, thanks for the tip.
The setup seems rather complex however, given the simplicity of the task. I would prefer just running a Java based SQL*Plus from in a separate process or doing this via an API that would allow me to run SQL*Plus scripts (parse script, substitute variables, run statements).
Oracle SQL Developer v1.1 appears to include an API that does exactly this.
The ScriptParser, Substitution and SQLPLUS classes in the oracle.dbtools.raptor.scriptrunner package (oracle.sqldeveloper.jar) seem to do just what I need based on my tests.
Can I use these classes for this purpose in my application? Is repackaging allowed?
Does Oracle have any plans for releasing this sort of functionality separately e.g. as part of the Instant Client?

How can i run unix script from my apex page

how can i run unix script from my apex page and take the output of unix script as a hidden variable and display it on the report region of that page

I had a requirement to run a Fortran program against some data that woudl be extracted from the database after the user set up their filtering criteria and made some additional input. SInce the program was to complex to conver to PL/SQL, we decided to try and invoke it from Apex. This is how I did it.
1. I followed the steps in Tim Archer's excellent article "Oracle External Procedure to Run Host Commands" (http://www.timarcher.com/?q=node/9). If the link does nto work, google the article's title.
Using this steps I created a function which accepts any OS command, including calling my own shell scripts, and runs them. I called my PL/SQL function "shell" instead of "USF_RUN_HOST_CMD " as Tim did in his example (step 9).
2. In Apex,
a. I created a button to run my shell command. (I named it P2_RUN_SHELL)
b. I created a PL/SQL process whose source looks as follows:
shell('/home/ackness/scripts/cr_xcf_file.sh > /tmp/cr_scfp_file.log');
and which was conditioned on the the button P2_RUN_SHELL.
It works like a charm.
Note: since you can run your own scripts using this method, you can encapsulate a series of commands in a UNIX shell script and invoke that script from Apex. This allows you to be able to test or run you commands from the command line as well as Apex and makes it easier to develop/debug/enhance the scripts in the future.

Cannot run batch directly from Bridge

Hi,
I often work from Bridge and use the TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>BATCH or TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP>LOAD FILES INTO PHOTOSHOP LAYERS
This works well except it has just stopped working for no apparent reason. When I try any of the commands under TOOLS>PHOTOSHOP, photoshop will launch or become active but then just sit there doing nothing.
This has thrown a HUGH spanner in my workflow and is driving me nuts.
I have tried deleting Bridge/photoshop prefs etc but nothing seems to help.
I'm guessing it has something to do with Bridge startup scripts or something.
I can batch via the Photoshop Automate menu but this is nowhere as efficient for me - I then have to hunt for the files etc.
Weird how it did work then not. The only change I made was installing a new version of ACR, but that was a week or so ago.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks.

SOLVED!
I renamed the folder containing my files and it now works. As far as I can tell there was something corrupt in the folder name - it was originally COPY>PASTed from an email, so maybe there was a hidden character or something else weird that confused Photoshop when it tried to run the script.
Weird.
