Weird Thumbnail Dimensions for EPS Files in Bridge CS4

Using Preferences> Thumbnails, I have set Bridge CS4 to show "Dimensions" as one of the metadata items. It works correctly for PSD, NEF, and TIF files, but not EPS files. For example, a PSD file may show dimensions of 1006 x 583 pixels. But he same image converted to EPS format shows the dimensions as 207 x 120. Why is this not also showing as 1006 x 583? Is Bridge reading dimensions of the embedded preview image? And, if so, why is it not reading the dimensions of the main image, instead?

Thumbnail picture for .EPS or .PSD

Moved from PSE 3 to 5, some questions...
Question 1) Under windows explorer, when looking at the contents of a folder in thumbnail view, it does not give a thumbnail picture for .EPS or .PSD (Photoshop Elements 5.0) files, which is a real problem. If you open an .EPS with PSE5, and save it to .EPS, PSE5 ask you for a .TIF image for the thumbnail. This worked under PSE3, but does not under PSE5 (i.e. Opened and saved to .EPS with TIF thumbnail still does not display under Windows Explorer).
Is there any way to correct this? Any utility that would allow all file formats to be viewed in thumb nail?
Question 2) In PSE3 under the File menu, there was an option like "Browse Pictures" (I don't remember exactly the name), and it was, in effect, a windows explorer that did display the thumnails of not PSE3 .EPS files and .PSD files. This made up for the issue in question 1. However, I cannot find this option anywhere in PSE5. Has it been dropped? I it has been dropped I will probably reinstall PSE3 and use it for that feature alone.
Thanks!
Bob

Bob,
See this thread for, at least, PSD icons.
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?224@@[email protected]
I don't remember anything about EPS thumbnails coming up. Installing the dll as described some years ago when PE3 came out restored my PSD icons. Not sure if it works in PE5.
The "Browse folders" option in PE3 Editor's File menu was dropped in PE4 and has not returned. One of several reasons I'm still on PE3. :)

Create preview for eps file

Hi all,
Does anyone have a magic idea how to create a proxy for EPS files?
I only want a thumbnail and/or preview of such files.
Would it be possible to create some script, that could run when the file is imported?
Thanks for any idea.

Thumbnail images for MP4 files vanished again - how can they be restored?

My thumbnail images for MP4 files have vanished again and could you tell me how to resttore them please? I am running Windows 8.1 and IE11 Browser and use the Real Player to play these files. When I run a flash test it says one minute it is not installed in the browser and the next test confirms that it is installed. Is this a known problem with Windows and can it be fixed by adjusting a setting somewhere. Thanks for your help.

Enable Compatibility View for IE: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11 and the plugin will be recognized.

ALT text not appearing in PDF for EPS files

Hi,
I have a created a document in InDesign CS5.5 which has images and text. the document should be accessibility complaint.
The document has images which are in PSD, tiff, eps and PNG files. I have applied the Alt text for each images.
After I export the document as PDF, when I mouse over the images, the Alt text is appearing for all the image formats except EPS file format. But Acrobat reads the Alt text for the image.
I am wondering why the Acrobat is not showing the ALT text for EPS file formats when i mouse over the image.
Is anyone facing the same problem? should I do anything in the settings?
please help.
Regards
Ramji V K

The EPS image is not created in photoshop. the image is created in Illustrator.
Also, what do you mean by Single image? can you please explain a bit more about that?

Thumbnail Preview for RAW Files Not Appearing in Bridge

Hello,
I'm running Adobe Bridge 5.1 on a Mac OS 10.9.2 (recently upgraded to Maverick) and I can no longer see thumbnail previews for my RAW files (which include .NEF, .CR2 and .RAF) though as of a few days ago this wasn't a problem. Not sure if it's related to the Maverick upgrade... but FYI, I do see thumbnail previews for .TIFF and .JPEG files.
I've already purged my cache generally and have also as a test chosen a local file to purge - that didn't work.
I've restarted Bridge at least 2x by pressing and holding the Option key.
I've also checked for Bridge updates - everything is up to date.
My Cache Options (within Preferences) are set to "Keep 100% Previews in Cache" and "Automatically Export Cache to Folders When Possible" - both checked.
Also downloaded the Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter 8.3, installed it but that didn't work.
I can't seem to find my Bridge cache folder or at least what's in the Library's "Caches" folder doesn't include anything for Bridge - see screenshot below.
Please help! Thank you in advance.

To me it seems related to your Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) converter. Clue inhere is you only miss the Raw files and have no problems in seeing other formats like jpeg and tiff.
The screenshot you delivered is from the wrong library, however, this same library (the one on system level) also is the location where you should be able to view the correct version of your ACR plugin. The path: library (same as per your screenshot)/Application support/ Adobe/ Plug ins/ CS6/ File Formats. inhere should be only one version of Camera Raw (called: "Camera Raw.plugin") and this should show version 8.3 (141).
I'm not sure about your bridge version number, Bridge 5 comes with PSCS6 but my most recent version of Bridge is 5.0.2.4.
Anyway, if you have only one ACR (8.3) installed in the above mentioned path then you might want to try to delete the Bridge plist file and Bridge cache file manually.
For this you have to Quit Bridge and find the user library (by default hidden, use menu Go in Finder and press option key to reveal).
Inhere find the plist file (user(your user name) / library / Preferences and inhere find and manually delete the file called: "com.adobe.bridge5.plist"
The in same user library find Bridge Cache. User/Library/Caches/Adobe/Bridge CS6. Inhere are 2 files, the adobe Bridge plug in cache and the folder called Cache. delete (or move outside libray) both items.
The restart Bridge (If needed also again hold option key to reset preferences) and this will create fresh files for the previous deleted items, leaving you with an almost out of the box factory set version of Bridge.

Thumbnail does not appear for eps file

Hi,
I am working with IBR and when i check-in an .eps file, the thumbnail is not created.It is configured at the Administration -> File formats also. Thumbnail is getting created for other images like jpeg,gif,png etc. .eps shows the status as "Not Converted".
Please assist.

Hi Priyanka ,
How are you creating thumbnails ? Using UCM server itself or through IBR ?
Thanks,

No thumbnails for .EPS files in Finder Cover Flow?

I found a plugin for this: http://www.eternalstorms.at/staff/index.html
It worked for one day, but today I can no longer preview .eps files. Any ideas?

I had a QuickLook folder with the plugin, in two separate folders, the sysytem Library, and the home directory Library.
I removed the QuickLook folder from my home directory, 'HD/users/username/Library/QuickLook', and restarted.
Seems to be working fine now = ] thanks

Open event for RAW files from Bridge

I installed the “Open As Layer.jsx” to promote the background into a layer and rename that layer to the file name. This is working perfect when I open the file via file menu from PS.
If I use a double-click from the Bridge it works only for JPEG’s and other files but not for RAW-files. As soon as ACR is involved, no open event is fired in Photoshop.
Is there a way to catch another event after the file is placed in PS? I tried to find some with the ScriptListener.8li but I don’t get a log entry.
Thanks for help.

Edit:
Glad to hear you got it working.
I'll just leave what i had put here anyway.
You want Program Files (x86)
That's where the 32 bit programs such as photoshop cs3 are on a windows 7 64 bit system.
Also, in bridge cs3 under Edit>Preferences>Thumbnails ensure Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for Jpeg and Tiff files is checked.
(then restart bridge cs3)

Missing thumbnail images for AVCHD files

I never had this problem before.
In the past I would import AVCHD (*.mt2s) video files to the oganizer using Premiere Elements 7.
Then I would open Photoshop Elements 7 and the video files I just imported in Premiere Elements 7 would display their thumbnails just fine.
NOW, these thumbnails do not display.
AVCHD files that I had previously imported still display their thumbnail, but any NEW AVCHD files do not display their thumbnail images; it just displays a default video thubmbnail graphic.
Furthermore, if I select "Update thumbnail" from the context menu of a previously imported AVCHD file with a thumbnail, then the thumbnail image goes away and siaplays the default graphic.
(PLEASE NOTE: when I click the default thumbnail image, it opens the video previewer successfully. So the answer is not that the video file is missing and therefore needs to be reconnected to regenerate the thumbnail image. So else is wrong here.)
How can I get the thumbnail feature to work properly? It works fine in Premiere Elements; the thumbnails images for both new and old imported files display just fine in that program, which is what I used to be able to see in Photoshop Elements. Why is PSE7 not displaying these video thumbnail images?

I have solved this issue myself a month or two ago and forgot to report my findings.
I alspo have a Canon HD camcorder so this was a major issue for me.
The way to resolve this issue (at least in my case) was to download a codec pack like k-lite. Do a google search for the codec pack or follow this link:
http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
When I installed the codec pack, I think I had to make sure M2TS files were selected within the installation wizard so just be aware of that.
Another way to resolve this issue is to upgrade to Windows 7. After I upgraded to Windows 7, I did not have to re-install the codec. I think Windows 7 has native support for AVCHD files.
I hope this helps. If it does, please report here if you encounter anything of note worthy since the details of this process are no longer fresh on my mind.

Re: CS5 not saving preview for EPS files

Has this problem been fixed yet? I just read the original forum that started 18 months ago. Is it that big a problem to put back what workred in CS4 to CS5, I'm getting fed up of re-saving thousends of CS5 EPS files in CS4 to get over this problem.

Why did you post this in the forum for Acrobat Forms?

PS CS5 not saving preview for EPS files

I'm running a trial version of CS5 Design Premium on a brand new Core i5 iMac with 8GB RAM and running SL 10.6.3. So far, I haven't noticed any major glitches, except for the following:
When I save an image as EPS, I usually choose the standard Mac 8 bit preview. This way, when bringing it into Quark, I can see the image. On my previous iMac, in CS3 and Leopard 10.5.8, this worked fine when importing into Quark 7.5.
Now, however, when importing into Quark 8.1.6, the EPS does NOT show a preview. It even indicates that no preview is included in the "Import Picture" window before bringing it in, even though I can see the "preview" in the little preview window. All I get in Quark is a gray box with the filename written inside. This is a bit bizarre!
Then I thought, maybe it's a Quark issue. I tried importing the same EPS file into my old iMac using Quark 7.5 and it does the same thing - no preview.
What's even more strange is that I took an old EPS which HAS a viewable preview, and resaved it (after a resize), and changed no other settings. The preview no longer shows up in Quark. Boom! Gone! Brand new files behave the same way.
Another thing I tried: I saved it using a TIFF preview. That seemed to work, although the preview looked very low-quality. That might work in a pinch, but it doesn't solve the problem of why my EPS files are not saving previews even though they are supposed to be included with the basic Mac Preview options.
Resaving the EPS as TIF also works fine, but again, doesn't solve the problem.
Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Why do you keep bringing up PICT previews? We have made it clear that we aren't using the standard Macintosh preview. The problem persists when using the Macintosh (JPEG) preview.
Or are you implying that the JPEG preview is actually a PICT preview?
And TIFF and JPEG previews have always differed in how the appear on screen. If they didn't there wouldn't really be any reason for having both, would there? And since they look different in Illustrator and InDesign, can you wander down the hall and ask the guys working on those Adobe products why their code is displaying your code differently than you want it to?
I have no problem with PICT being dead. I'm sure no one else on the forum does either. Your software is the one using it. What I am asking is that you help us with a REAL solution rather than debating it with us. We all have plenty of experience in what we do. I've been using Photoshop since version 1, and I'm sure many of the others weighing in here have too. We know what has worked in your product in the past, and we know what we need it to continue to do for us now and in the future. If Adobe is going to give us forums to spotlight issues, then Adobe should also listen and act. Eight months of debating the existence of PICT files is a waste of everyone's time. Please just fix the code so that when I choose a JPEG preview I get a JPEG preview that shows up in Illustrator, InDesign, or whatever. If a normal JPEG shows up, then a JPEG preview attached to an EPS file should as well. It's not rocket science. And it's not a PICT. It's a JPEG.
I appreciate your assistance in helping all of us with this frustrating and production draining issue. If I sound a bit frazzled it is because it is 7:30 PM and I should be at home with my family, but my jacked up previews caused me to use one of the suggested workarounds, which turned a job that should have taken 20 minutes into a 3 hour adventure. Now let's multiply that out over the last 8 months... And multiply that by everyone affected. I'm sure that adds up to a lot more lost time than what would be required to fix the bug and issue an update.

Access permissions for eps file on Mac

I am asking this question on behalf of a friend...
"When I create an eps file on a mac, it only gives access to the person who created it and it gives the everyone group no access. Is there a way to default this so that everyone has read rights to it?
I have other machines that do not have to change the rights and automatically give read rights to the everyone group by default but I am unsure where or what to change to make this happen for this one user."

Are you logging into a user with Administrative Privileges?
If it is a user account that does not have adminstrative or standard privileges then this might be a problem.
For instance a guest with sharing only.
You set the privileges in the new accounts
You may also have to repair the permissions using the disk utility app in the Applications>Utilities
Or you might have to manually set the sharing to read write for a particular directory which is done with the Get Info dialog.

Generic Thumnails for RAW Files in Photoshop CS4

I recently purchased a copy of Adobe CS4 and for some reason all my RAW files show as generic thumbnails in Photoshop. I have done a lot of searching so I have already taken the following actions:
1. Updated RAW plugin to 5.5
2. Purged cache folder
3. Manuall purged cache folder
When I purged the cache folder the thumbnails were working in Bridge but not Photoshop.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Due to the thumbnail producer in earlier versions of Photoshop being buggy and causing corrupted / loss of data, it was taken out, being replaced by one generic file icon for all Photoshop files. Bridge still has the ability to read the files properly to preview them though as it is written by Adobe so they can control it better i guess. This cannot be changed very easily but i think it can be done somhow, but still at the risk of running into the problems the old preview icons had (not that i personally ever had any).
