Saving a tiff to png...why does it force me to save as a copy??

Just as the subject line says.
When I save a tiff as a png, it forcefully inserts "copy" into my file name. Why is this, and can I turn that off?
Thanks,
Dean

  • Why does pages suddenly refuse to save a document back to our server after editing?

    why does pages suddenly refuse to save a document back to our server after editing?
    and can i specify a default save-as location?

    The default save location is the one used to open the document.
    The default save_to location is the last used one.
    Both are stored in memory and written in the application's preferences file when we close it.
    It's quite easy to change the defaults in the preferences file but we must do that before opening the app and if we use an other location once the app is open, we will lost the defined default location.
    From my point of view, the best scheme is to use an Applescript to save.

  • Why does Bridge Need Illustrator to Save as PDF compatible file?

    1. Why does Bridge need Illustrator files to be saved as PDF files? "PDF Compatible File" ticked in the save menu.
    2. Why does saving with this info take so long, even on decent fast modern systems?
    3. Why does Bridge not consistently render the Illustrator files in FULL RESOLUTIONS, seemingly shooting for half resolution much of the time, and simply stopping at that?
    4. Why does "clicking" on the preview inside Bridge bring up the full resolution?
    5. How do I shortcut this process so that every file is previewed in Full RESOLUTION, instantly?
    What is the point of Bridge?  What's its reason for existence?

    Since someone is bound to say that this should be asked in the Bridge section... it already is.  And has been referenced back over here.

    Answer wherever you see fit, if you're up to the task of dealing with someone attempting to have a broader view, perhaps also suffering from somewhat objective analysis that sometimes contains direct criticism of the way Adobe does things.

    BizGuru,
    Somethings to consider.
    --| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
       Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
    -| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
    --| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
        Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
    --| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
    Be well...

  • Why does error message occur when "Save as Adobe PDF" is used?

    "Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work; it only generates "Error An error occurred while saving the PDF file."
    I can create a PDF two ways: (1) distilling a Postscript file and using Acrobat Distiller, and (2) using the MacOS PDF generator (MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context).
    Is there a reason "Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work? Is this an issue related to Yosemite or Adobe Acrobat? I am curious to know if other Yosemite and Acrobat XI users have this issue?
    Kind regards, –John
    Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.10 on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB DDR3)

    Thank you for replying. I appreciate your feedback, Mr. Lloyd. "Save as PDF" does generate a PDF using MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context. However, I am trying to solve an issue with PDF generating with Adobe Distiller since upgrading to Yosemite.
    I am curious to know if anyone in the Apple community can verify if "Save as Adobe PDF" works for him or her. If this script specific to Acrobat Distiller XI version 11.0.10 does not function with Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2, I can disregard this functionality. However, if the functionality does work for others, I shall work to find a solution.
    My question was asked in part to help me gain understanding of changes in PDF production that have occurred since I upgraded to Yosemite. The following description is the root of my query which I posted on Acrobat Discussion groups:
    Using Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.10 on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB DDR3), I have been creating PDF files of music charts optimized for viewing on iPad using Acrobat Distiller XI version 11.0.10. I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.2). Music charts are designed using Pages 5.5.2 using Page Setup for HP LaserJet 1012 and a custom page size (7.75 in. x 10.25) with four 0.06 inch margins. This allows me to replicate exact content of a PDF file optimized for printing [Page Setup for HP LaserJet 1012 with US Letter page size (8.5 in. x 11) having four 0.5 inch margins] on a  PDF file optimized for viewing on an iPad. The iPad PDF has reduced white space in margins allowing the music chart to have the largest print viewable when looking at an iPad while performing.
    I am creating a PDF by distilling a Postscript file and using Acrobat Distiller [PDF/A-1b:2005 (RGB)]. "Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work; it only generates "Error An error occurred while saving the PDF file." Moreover, "Save as an Adobe PDF" never works for any circumstance.
    The issue is iPad PDFs no longer have 0.06 inch margins. A PDF file is created, but there is more white space in margins. I have determined the PDF production is being affected by the HP LaserJet 1012 0.167 inch minimal margins. The outcome does not change if I select Any Printer from Page Setup. However, a PDF with 0.06 inch margins is created if I use the MacOS PDF generator (MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context).
    Is there any thing I can do to use Adobe Acrobat XI to make charts optimized iPad like I could before I upgraded to Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)? Just curious…

  • Why does it take longer to Save with Layers v. no Layers?

    I've noticed that file save times go way up even with just 1 layer (plus Background) compared to saving with no layers. "Flat" PSDs save very fast, whether to my SSD boot drive, or to my spinny work drive.Is this normal? And can anyone tell me why?
    My scratch disc is on my SSD boot drive. Windows 7 Ultimate fully updated. I have 30GB of RAM and my average file size (open) is around 400MB. I do have the compatibility turned on (otherwise Lightroom doesn't like it), and compression. I understand those will add more time. But why so much more than a "flat" PSD?

    Thanks. I need to rephrase my subject line I guess...
    Obviously, additional layers will take longer to save, because, like you said, each layers is like another image (sorta). HOWEVER, the save time seems to increase EXPONENTIALLY just by adding 1 layer.
    Here's a specific example...
    I'm working on a 7360 x 4912 image which Photoshop says is 206.9M. It takes less than 2 seconds to save the PSD.
    I clicked Ctrl+J to copy the Background layer to a new layer. Now there's the Background layer, plus Layer 1, and now Photoshop tells me it's 206.9M/413.7M. Now it takes 34 seconds to save the PSD!
    So it's not just double, it takes 17x longer!!! Why so much longer?

  • Why does the autosave continue to save an unchanged project?

    I appreciate the "autosave" feature because I'm frequently so deep in a project that I forget to hit "save", but when I leave the project for a few hours with the window open then the project will continue to save the same unchanged file.  Am I creating needless duplications of the same "last saved" project?  And more importantly, will it eventually overwrite the earlier versions in the autosave folder?
    I'm using an iMac, CS6 creative cloud.  Thank you for your help.

    Auto saving at in opportune times irritates me ...and the "overwrite issue" mentioned above makes it kind of pointless.
    (Danger is auto saving a corruption as well)
    I trust myself to make enough regular "Save a Copys"  to not bother about Auto Saves now.
    I start a Project. Set it up with assets etc.
    Immediately Save a Copy  "BACKUP projectname_vers1"
    I do that regularly ( as well as a save)  throughout  the edit process and I increment the version number every so often ands when appropriate.
    The Project and the Backup Projects are saved to another drive using  Backup Software I run at the end of the day.

  • Why does Pages ask me to save changes when I only open a file and print it?

    I have documents that I open regularly but only want to print (and not make changes to).  But, even if I open them and do nothing other than print them, Pages prompts me to save changes when I close the file.  Why is this? 
    If I've had the document open for a while, I'm always concerned that maybe I've made changes that I want to save and forgotten.

    But it always, always, always ignores it, fruhulda. That's what I'm saying. A brand new document on a brand new computer with a fresh install of iwork, and the same thing happens. Every time I open it and print--Do you want to Save? Do you want to Save?
    For instance, I have a contract form I use regularly and I get that every.single.time even though I always use the same printer, and have hardly ever used the printer that pages has chosen as my default printer (a medium format inkjet with archival ink that costs far too much to use for things like correspondence). It is not my default printer in OS X, incidentally. No matter how many times I tell Pages to save the information about the printer, it will not. And I also get the same nag on the rare occasions when I do use the printer that pages has chosen (usually by mistake because I forgot to change it in the print dialog).
    Perhaps this is a localization-specific bug and that's why you don't see it.
    EDIT And most oddly, it happens just the same in lion with the current version of pages, which I would have thought should have autosaved that change without asking me about it.

  • Why does it take several minutes for Firefox to copy anything?

    While trying to copy text, firefox takes some time to actually do the task and let me move on to doing something else. While doing this it stops everything running in firefox as if it was working hard to copy a bit of text. My PC works fine in other things, I can minimize FF and go about doing whatever else I want to do while FF is working on it.

  • Why does Dreamweaver force an image sub-directory, and how can I stop that behaviour?

    This is from a person (me) who has made lots of web pages, but doesn't use sub-directories, so you might decide I am unsophisticated.  So be it.  I do not use sub-directories, but every time I open one of my web pages, Dreamweaver decides that all of my images are supposed to be in sub-directories.  Then I have to go through all the images on the page and delete the sub-directories.  Luckily, I usually don't have a lot of images on my pages.  Unpleasantly, it takes time and I have to do it EVERY TIME I MODIFY ANY PAGE.  It doesn't remember my preference.
    Is there any way to stop this behaviour?
    So far, I have looked in every options and preferences screen that I can find.  I have also searched on "directories" and "images" and combinations.  I cannot find anything.
    OBTW, I do not use CSS for these pages at all.  They were made before CSS and they are mainly content and links to files, so I am not planning on changing this unless there are strong arguments to the contrary.
    All help is appreciated.
    Cheers!

    What version of DW are you using?  And please explain what you mean by this -
    every time I open one of my web pages, Dreamweaver decides that all of my images are supposed to be in sub-directories.  Then I have to go through all the images on the page and delete the sub-directories.
    Are you saying that merely opening a file causes DW to move your images?

  • Why does Mac force boot to the recovery partition even when an external recovery option is selected? This disables the option of reformatting the internal drive because it is in use running the recovery partition.I have yet to find a viable solution.

          To make a very tedious story short, My Mac decided that it would crash and not reboot the OS. I decided to bite the bullet and just reformat, sacrificing my very important data. I have tried just about every trick in the book. There is one one major problem I am facing. When I try to reformat the internal HDD using Disk Utility. It fails to unmount. "Make sure that all applications and files are closed on this disk.", Suggesting that the computer is ignoring my command at startup to boot from my external recovery drive, and  using the Recovery partition on the problem drive, making it impossible to reformat the drive.  When the internal drive is removed and connected by another method it is not recognized.
    I failed to read the fine print on the box that  suggested I purchase another Mac to fix problems with my primary Mac because any utility with the potential to fix the problem can only be run on a functioning Mac.

    Booting to any version of the Recovery system, the built in partition on the internal drive, a recovery partition on an external drive or from the Online internet system will not stop you from formatting the Macintosh HD partition on the internal drive. So your problem is not that you are booting from the internal Recovery HD partition. It is probably your internal hard drive has problems, failing.
    You could try booting the system from the Online system. At startup hold down the Option/Alt + Command + r keys and keep them held down until you see a globe on the screen. That will boot the system from across the internet from the Apple servers completely removing the internal drive as a boot source. If you still can't erase and format or repartition and format the internal drive then your drive has problems and will need to be replaced.

  • Why does a document in Textedit save as .txt when I try to save it as .html?

    I am trying to save a document in Textedit as a .html and it will work at first but if I edit it and press "Save as Version" it saves it as a .txt. It is getting very annoying because I have to change it every time I open it. Please Help

    I think if I understand you correctly this could work, if you uncheck the box in Textedit preferences "Add .txt........." and then do a  "save as" .html.
    Then "get info" on the document and define what you want to open it with. It should only open then the way you want it to keeping the .html

    Hi,
    What application you are printing from?
