Why do the reference converters throw out masked pixels?

Adobe modified the spec years ago to allow the storage of masked pixels in DNGs, which can be very useful for post-processing of raw data (ie. noise reduction), yet the current Windows converter throws this data out. Any idea why Adobe skipped this? Are there any third-party converters that correctly preserve the full sensor in a DNG?

  • Using the Android Reader app, why is the signature option greyed out?

    I have a client that has enlisted me to create 3 fillable PDF forms. I used FormsCentral to create these fillable forms, then I saved them as PDFs to my Dropbox. I opened the Adobe Reader app on my Tablet, and access the forms. As for the client, they are home builders, and these 3 forms are 3 different stages of the building process. They are using them to interact with the new homeowner. They want to do this on Samsung Note 10.1 tablets with Verizon data. There are 3 issues I am faced with fixing:
    1. The signing process is quite a process. Meaning too many clicks to setup and apply a digital signature according to the customer. And that is on a PC, because I am unable to use the "signature" function - the button is greyed out. Why is that?
    2. Once we resolve the above issue, then will there be a way to "lock" the form so that the customer's responses and selections are unchangeable? If so, how?
    3. Once the form is signed and "locked" (if possible), what is the simplest way to send the form via e-mail? I ask because they want there to be a way to setup the form to e-mail copies to the addresses that are entered into an e-mail field on the form. Sort of "auto-populate" the addresses as well as be able to set a predetermined address (back to their office) so that the results may be sent via mobile instantly upon completion.
    I know that is a lot to ask. Your help would be most appreciated!
    Thanks in advance, Rob

    (1) Why is the Signature button greyed out (disabled)?
    You used FormsCentral to create fillable forms and exported to PDF.  When exporting FormsCentral forms to PDF forms, FormsCentral adds "extended rights" to PDF forms so that users can fill out the PDF forms in Adobe Reader (which is a PDF viewer, not a PDF editor).
    The current version (11.5.0) of Adobe Reader for Android does not allow signatures to be added to any "Reader Extended" PDF documents (including forms).  We are actively investigating and trying to resolve the problem.
    (2) Is there a way to "lock" a PDF form?
    You can "flatten" a PDF form after the form has been filled out and signed by a customer.  Once flattened, it's not possible to change filled data or signatures.  When you try to email a filled PDF form (optionally with a signature), Adobe Reader for iOS will present the E-mail Document dialog with two options: "Send Original Document" and "Send Flattened Copy".  You can choose the "Send Flattened Copy" option.
    Unfortunately, the feature has not been supported in Adobe Reader for Android yet.
    (3) What is the easiest way to send a "flattened" copy via email?
    Because the issues 1 & 2 above have not been resolved, you are not able to do this in Adobe Reader for Android.  However, you can do this in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    First, you need to add a Submit button to your PDF form.  I am not sure if you can do this in FormsCentral.  But you can use Adobe Acrobat (a paid product) to add a Submit button.
    Setting action buttons > Add a submit button
    When your customer taps the Submit button in the PDF form, Adobe Reader (for iOS - for now) will present thee same E-mail Document dialog.  Once the "Send Flattened Copy" option is selected, Reader will launch the default Mail app and auto-populate email address(es) specified for the Submit button action.
    Please let us know if you have further questions.

  • Why does the forum log me out so quickly, requiring me to re-enter my ID & password all the time?

    Why does the forum log me out so quickly, requiring me to re-enter my ID & password all the time?  When I reply to a post I also have to re-enter both items.  Even my online banking is saavy enough to reconnize me and autofil my ID.

    It works for me. This looks like some browser issue. Try Clearing browser cache and signing in again.

  • Why does the iPad 2 run out of memory

    Why does the iPad 2 run out of memory?

    First ...read deggie's response. Makes sense - even a computer running a large amount of RAM can run short on memory depending upon the operation you are performing so sometimes you have to do what is available to "clear" the memory.
    You can ...close apps and restart the iPad on occasion. You close apps by double tapping the home button to bring up your recent apps in the multitasking tray. Tap and hold down on any of the icons until they all begin to wiggle. Then tap the minus signs in the corner of the apps to close them. Close all of your apps in that area. Also take note of how many apps are down there. That may have something to do with why the iPad is running out of memory. Tap the home button twice to return to the home screen. Then restart your iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. To power up, hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If you do this once in a while, it may make a difference in how your iPad performs. In any event, it will not hurt anything.

  • Should I keep the iPad or throw out my annoying tablet

    First when I got hrp my iPad 3 I was blown away with the retina display ans the design on the other hand the Samsung  tablet  Desighn was good and I don't need my fingers to touch the screen but is not 100% reyclable it's actually 20%. And if I do throw it out I'm just wasting money. Please help

    I have no idea what you are actually asking!
    Should I keep the iPad or throw out my annoying tablet
    By "tablet", do you mean the Samsung, or are you now referring to the iPad as a tablet?
    but is not 100% reyclable it's actually 20%  - and your point is?
    if I do throw it out I'm just wasting money - if you throw out something that works, simply because it's less recyclable then something else, then yes, you are wasting your money - and negating the value of re-cycling! 
    I'm not sure what "help" you need, nor what advice you expect anyone here to give, but if you want to chuck out either an iPad, or a Samsung tablet, send it to me!
    My address is:

  • Why is the lyrics tab grayed out?

    I have a Taylor Swift song I was going to add some lyrics to, but the tab is grayed out. Anyone know why? This song was imported from a CD.
    Thanks

    Yes, I tried it again by seeing the song in the main library as opposed to seeing it in a playlist. Again, the lyrics tab was grayed out. I was able to see the tab, however, when I did a "get info" for one of her music videos I have.

  • Why is the home screen laid out the way it is?

    Why is the home screen (ios 7  on iPhone 5 shown)  laid out the way it is? Given Apple's attention to detail, there has to be a reason.

    I'm sorry, but I don't understand your question. What part of how it is set up seems to be the problem, the arrangement of the icons, colors, etc.? You do know that you can arrange the screen in any way that you want, moving icons around, moving them to other pages, etc.

  • Why are the emails I sent out being held in my outbox, and how do I resend them

    why are the emails that I have sent out not going to the recepiants but instead being held in my outbox, and how do I resend them?

    This problem is generally caused by not having a connection to the ISP mail sender (send and receive authenticate and operate independently).

  • Why does the sound keep going out?

    The sound keeps going out for everything:  iTunes, any website  which has audio, even the volume buttons on my keyboard.  I notice that when I restart my computer it will work temporarily, maybe 10-15 minutes and then will go out again.  This just started happening and I'm not sure what is going on. Please help!
