Turning a lot of tiff files into jpeg's at one time

Does anyone know how to change a lot of files at one time into another file I have a friend that needs around 20000 files that our tiffs changed to jpeg or pdf files without having to do them one at a time?
Thanks for any suggestions. Bill

I know this is marked as solved, but I'm going to add two alternatives:
1.) Photoshop Action. Can convert to "Droplet", drop folder onto droplet, walk away, come back to folder full of converted images.
2.) Automator Action: Two steps.
• Get Specified Finder Items. Drag / drop all images (probably best to use COPIES) into the Window.
• Change Type of Images. Select JPEG.

Can't move files into folders more than one time.

I'm having a strange problem. If I try and drag a file into a folder then it will allow me to do that, but only once. If I try to drag another file into the same folder then it is locked. I can drag it into a different folder, but the same thing happens, I can move a file into the new folder but not a 2nd file, but it is locked. I have to restart to "unlock" these folders, but the same things happens over and over again. I can move a single file into a folder, but after that it locks up and I have to restart.
Any ideas why this is happening? It only happens in bridge, I'm able to move files freely in Finder.
Thanks!

I can't find a permission setting that would only allow a single file to be moved to a folder
Don't know if you already tried but use a check and repair permissions on your Mac using either Apple Disk Utility (applications / utilities) or a third party like Cocktail.
If still the same happens restart bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences.
When the problem still exist please provide more details about OS and Bridge versions as well as computer specs.

How to convert Tiff file into to JPEG....

Hi,
I want to convert a tiff file into jpeg.
Can someone please show me a simple example on how this can be done.
I want to create a Servlet that reads a blob field that contians tiff image and then convert that into to jpeg and display it in a Browser...
If anyone has any ideas if this is doable i would greatly appreciate if they can advise me on how this can be done.
Thanks in advance.

Java2 Doesn't support TIFF so you'll have to rely on a 3rd party product. I suggest you look at JAI.
A solution off the top of my brain would be to use a JAI SeekableStream on the BLOB and then send the image to the client throught either a JAI image encoder, or through the default JAI.create statement.
Remember, this is just off the top of my brain. Hope it works out.

HT4007 I have just transferred all my raw, jpeg & tiff files into LR4 and using to opportunity to delete old raw files to free up disc space. How can i completely remove a raw file from my msc disc??

I have just transferred all my raw, jpeg & tiff files into LR4 and using the opportunity to delete old raw files to free up disc space. How can i completely remove a raw file from my mac disc??

I'd be careful here: LR references files. It can copy them, like from an SD card to your hard drive, but it doesn't necessarily make duplicates. So when you say you "transferred" those files "into" LR it just means you referenced existing files. And if you delete those they're gone, unless you've made copies. LR does not import files by copying them into a managed library like Aperture does.

How to convert XMP files into JPEG ones?

I need to convert 16 xmp files into jpeg or tiff ones.

XMP files are metadata files, so you are wanting to print out the text metadata associated with these 16 images? You will usually see them once a raw file (like NEF or CRW) is processed through Adobe Camera Raw. XMP files are not images.

Converting tiff images into jpeg

I would like to convert tiff images into jpegs with iphoto. I dont want to duplicate all my photos and then have to delete one by one!
How do I do this?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The short answer is that you cannot. You will have to export the files via the File->Export->File Export menu option, selecting jpeg as the format and checking the box to include the keywords and comments, and maximum size. Then import the jpgs and delete the tiffs.
You can get all of the tiff files together by doing a search for .tif. Then do a Select All (Command-A) and go to the export menu. Export all to a folder on the desktop. Import the new jpgs into iPhoto.
To get rid of the tiffs once the jpgs are imported do another search for the tifs and select all again. Then type Command+Delete. That moves the tiff photos to iPhoto's Trash bin. Then empty the bin.
If you have multiple files with the same file name you'll have to do some renaming before the export. You can batch rename them using the option Title to Date/Time or just date alone. I use the date taken as the file name as that gives me excellent chronological sorting and searching by filename for dates.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How do you convert Raw files into jpeg.

I have never shot in Raw before and I have a huge project due tomorrow. I need help Asap. What is the easiest way to convert Raw files into jpeg, can Light Room convert the files. I have tried so many different ways and nothing seems to work.

It depends on the sofware you have. ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop can convert ("open") raw files, as can Lightroom.
However, not all camera models are supported by all versions of the software. We need to know the make and exact model of the camera that generated the raw files to advice you further.
We can also assist you with the conversion through ACR hosted by Photoshop.
Olease note that there are dedicated forums for Lightroom, for Adobe Camera Raw and for Bridge.
Here's the list of which cameras are supported by each version of ACR. Note that later versions supporte all camera models supported in previous versions of ACR.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
Note that the latest version of ACR to run in CS4 is ACR 5.3;
CS3 runs ACR 4.6;
CS2 runs ACR 3.7;
CS runs 2.4.

Issue while uploading .TIFF file into Standard text using RSTXLDMC

Hi All,
We are facing issues while uploading .TIFF file into standard text through program RSTXLDMC.
Getting the following error.
TIFF format error: No baseline TIFF 6.0 file.
The image is a colored one.
Please provide me solution if anyone has worked in this area.
Thanks in Advance,
Anand Raj Kuruba.

Hi,
Often this error occurs because the TIFF file you have has been saved with some form of compression. You need to open in a picture edit program and save as TIFF making sure options are set so there is no compression.

Is this your problem? Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon

I have the 4S and downloaded a fax reader application that converts the TIFF file to JPEG, solution they recommend is to go to settings, app-general-location services but I don't see a way to do this on my phone, help!

If you are looking for this area, in the newer iOS, it is Settings>Privacy>Location Services. I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here, so I cannot give you more information. Is it possible you are trying to give this program access to photos in your Camera Roll? Please provide a little more information.

Is there a quick method for turning a 13 page Ai file into 13 separate Ai files

Is there a quick method for turning a 13 page Ai file into 13 separate Ai files? I need to resave or RIP them as normalized PDF files, and I need to start with single-page ai files.
Thanks.

As Erica says, it's in the Illustrator Options window which opens after checking Save.. Check the top of what I showed

How to read a tiff file that has more than one page?

Hi,
I use JAI to read TIFF image and get the pixels from a raster object. A TIFF file can have more than one image in itself. The JAI doc from SUN only mentioned that we can get the number of IFD (image file directory) by using
getNumDirectories() function but no description about how to get different images separately out of one TIFF file. Does any one know how to do it or some example programs implementing such function? Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure if this helps, but here's a web page which talks about Image I/O:
http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai/iio.html
For your problem, they have a sample solution which can read a specific page of a multi-page tiff file, so perhaps you could make a loop to read all of the pages:

Good luck!

Batch merging two TIFF files into one

I have a lot of portrait B5-size TIFF files that were scanned from paper documents and I plan to scan more.
I want to merge every two of these files into landscape B4-size TIFF files.
I want to do this by a batch job.
What is the best way?
Are there any command-line tools to do this job?
I do not have Adobe package software. Instead I installed MacGimp.
Although I have some experience with shellscript and Applescript,
I'm new to Script-Fu.
I made a GUI script for the application Preview that reads a multi-page TIFF file and saves as a PDF file with 2-UP layout. This method has two flaws:
(1) Preview aborts for large files.
(2) Resulting PDF file is more than five times as large as original TIFF file.
Namely, 40-page, g4-compressed, 400KB TIFF file results in 2.5 MB PDF file.
Maybe, the Preview does not make inheritance of TIFF compression.
So I decided to make multi-page TIFF files of 2-UP layout.
Thank you for reading.
