How the TIFF format to compress images?

When we choose "file > save as" to save an image to a TIFF file, a TIFF Options dialog with 4 options of image compression (None, LZW, Zip, Jpeg). What is this for? The TIFF format is Compress images? They are detrimental to the quality of the image? Thank you

All TIFF compression is lossless, except of course JPEG compressed TIFF (which should be avoided in any case because of compatibility issues).

  • Creation of layer with the tiff format

    Im am using PS Elements in Win10 has an external module in LR 5.7 for editing. But when I access the TIFF LR file generated in part of PS, I don't have access to overlay or menu commands. I can't find a solution. I tried a PSD file with no result. Can only be changed with layers file is a JPEG. How can I create with a TIFF in PS Elements file layers?

    The cause is probably that the tiff/psd files are 16-bit/channel

    If you open one of the files in the element editor and you pass to Image > Mode and click on 8-bit/channel, is what let you use layers, etc...?

  • Can (CS5) export to PDF format and compress Images?

    Using CS5, I have a 'book' with 12 chapters and a total of about 800 color images. The goal is to export it to a PDF file that is shown on the screens, not sent to a printer.

    When I export to PDF format, the file size is huge: about 240 MB.

    I want this file to be much - a lot! -smaller size (in MB).

    I have all images with different resolutions - from 72 dpi to 220 dpi - and I do not have the higher resolutions.

    What is the best way to approach this problem? ...

    --Are there a way to set Indesign to compress images when exporting?

    - Or if Photoshop can be used to 'batch' compress images at 72 dpi?

    - Or is there another method that I can't even imagine.

    Thank you very much!

    Zorba

    Look in the export PDF dialog box. In the "Compression" Panel, you can set a maximum allowed DPI - any image of a value greater than the value "above" will be sous-échantillonnées to the value "to".

    It works only on bitmap images. If you placed the vector images big, there is no way to automatically decrease their size.

  • How the "automatic formatting" a very long word in InDesign?

    I try to insert/import/paste text in InDesign. The text contains a few - strings of text (or "words") with more than 3000 characters. This causes InDesign to have in excess of text and is not not be able automatic flow of the text.

    When I import (or paste) the text I am shift + click on (I have also tried option + shift + click) to of the auto-enchainement downwards along the pages, but the automatic flow stop on page 16 (where the 'words' long begin to occur), although my file contains more than 200 pages. I get the little red sign below in the last text box, which indicates that I have overset text.

    I tried then click the Red sign and continue the flow of the text on the following pages, but I find myself just with text boxes empty on the following pages, each time I try click on the Red sign.

    I removed along 'words' and tried again and now InDesign doesn't seem to have a problem with my text. If the problem is caused by the long "words."

    The text format is not important (I tried .rtf and .txt) and InDesign is able to recognize both.

    I can not however, insert spaces or end of line in these long 'words', since we "words". The number of characters in each 'word' is important, and if I start to add extra spaces or end-of-line charecters he would change the "words".

    I have a lot of places in the text where I have these long 'words', and I would avoid too much clicking and inserting to work around this problem.

    I am running InDesign CS3 on a Macintosh 10.5.8

    I would be grateful if someone has an idea how to work around these.

  • Could not import the TIFF format in Premiere Elements project

    Hi - I'm a user of PS CS5 and LR3 and have just started working with first Elements 10.  Right out of the gate, I encountered a problem where I seem to be impossible to import some TIFF in PE files.  If I open my Nikon NEF in PS CS5 and save it in format TIFF, I'm able to import in PE.  But if the NAVE passes thru LR somehow then import into PE returns a "generic error" dialog box  This happens for example, that if I export LR file in TIFF format... or if I open it in LR, then use Edit-IN (PS CS5), and then save PS... again, it happens.

  • Printer using the TIFF format?

    This who should I think about a printer that allows you to convert the PDF file that I will give in a TIFF file to format before printing. I think it's because it uses the publishing server (I think). Should I be worried?

    I can tell you that it gives me a very good price, but the four tests he gave me are not good with regard to alignment on spreads, or border being equal. I could go full page for 50 cents more, but then that eliminates the problem of the border I'm not sure it solves the problem of alignment. He said he rushed to prove myself made and can do better. It is difficult, he said, to manage printing across pages that print as spreads are difficult to get aligned since the publication of the document moves some printing. It almost sounded like it should stand to the printer and push each sheet it prints.

    I get a straight story or should I find another printer?

    They use position: absolute in css of the

    that contains the image, which is the best way to do it. Absolute positioning removes such content from the normal flow of the site and the place on top the rest content.

    It is also the best way to completely break your Web site if you do not fully understand.

    This is a case where the position: absolute has been used properly, for a start-stop on the page element. The rest of this design is managed with static which is the default value of positioning (Nothing written for position: in the css), floats, margins, and padding.

  • Explain the Compression Options when recording in TIFF format

    Adobe PhotoShop CS5 offers three options for the conversion of a RAW file to TIFF (ZIP, LZW and JPEG).

    I would be grateful if someone can help me understand the following.

    I do not understand which of these employ the "run-length encoding" system which should make the TIFF

    the file is much smaller than the RAW file.  I used three types of compression, but the only one who

    has resulted in a substantial reduction in size was JPEG compression.

    The TIFF file without compression is actually twice the size of the raw file.

    What are the LZW and ZIP compressions doing?

    Thank you

    How did you get to the conclusion that the tif should be smaller than the RAW files?

    jpg is a lossy compression, so better avoid uo until the final output.

    As for lzw and zip (from the help):

    LZW (Lemple-Zif-Welch) Lossless compression; support language PostScript, PDF, GIF, and TIFF file formats. Very useful for images with large areas of single color.

    ZIP Lossless compression; supported by the PDF and TIFF file formats. Like LZW, ZIP compression is most effective for images that contain large areas of single color.

    So image noise for example denying all economies, and I think that zip with 16-bit is a problem.

  • CC wants to save to the default TIFF format. How can I register as a default PSD?

    I know that the PSD are the default file format, and I read CS6 is sticky and will save a file in the latest file format that has been saved.

    Here is my scenario:

    1 to 5 of Lightroom, I right-click on one of my RAW (NEF) files and select Edit in CC.

    2 CC opens and I do some changes.

    3 try to save the file.

    a. If I just "Save" the file, it saves to the TIFF format.

    b. If I use "Save as...". "the dialogue is set by default to a TIFF file

    I tried to open a file of LR in CC, by registering as a PSD, then closing CC in the hope that it would be sticky, nope.

    How can I force CC always default to save PSD files unless I tell him otherwise?

    It helped me to get to the resolution.

    I opened CC and opened a NAVE across the bridge. File... Save as... high by default save the PSD. So I took a peek in LR.

    In LR, I went to "Edit"... Preferences"on the external publishing tab, I got"File Format"set to TIFF.  Why, when and how I made this change I don't remember. Especially the "why" part.

    Change to PSD solved this problem.

  • Download pictures from a film directly on scanner Vista 'paint' using the TIFF TIF format.

    I would like to copy quite a number of slides and negatives of my innovative technology Film Scan 351 for MS Vista 'paint' for available myself of the chance to use the quality of the TIFF format. I would like to download to use this format. I guess that the paint would allow me to 'fix' the photos who need.

    My next step would be to burn photos to a CD - R or DVD-R individually, not as a slide show. Last but not least play the disc on a CD/DVD drive.

    If you float a container, you should give a specific width (see red code below). I don't know why the top image works without a width applied - may he just happens to work because of the place, it falls into the code.

    File > open to open your eps file

    File > export to export your image as a jpg.

    In the export dialog just below where you type the name of the file is a type of file, which is where you choose jpg.

    Whatever you do, do not delete the eps file. If you need to access the original you have.

    I recommend instead of jpg you choose psd, tiff, or png and jpg don't use that to share. Jpg is a lossy format, which means that whenever you modify the file and save it, degrades the quality of this file. The formats that I recommend are lossless formats, you can edit all you want that data is not being ignored, unless you choose to do so.

  • Problems with the export of PDF to TIFF (a PDF page export also several images in TIFF format)

    Using Acrobat X professional, I'm trying to convert a PDF to multiple page in multiple TIFF files - that is, each page of the PDF file is converted to a TIFF file (for example, a PDF file with 50 pages would cause 50 TIFF).

    I created a remedy so that I can possibly process batches of PDFs. My action in two stages:

    (1) flatten layers

    (2) export all images as TIFF

    -the files are exported to a folder on a network drive

    -file settings are: Monochrome = CCITT G4 / grayscale = LZW / color = LZW

    -color management: RGB = off / off = CMYK / grayscale = off

    -conversion: color space: determine automatically / resolution: 300 pixels/inch

    -extraction: exclude the lower images: no limit

    My PDF is searchable (OCR has been applied). I checked the file to see if it has all the layers - this isn't. The file was created with InDesign.

    Basically, once the action performed there are several exported for each page - TIFF files and when I open the TIFFs they are parts of each PDF page. For example, if a single PDF page has three images on it then three TIFFs are exported for each image instead of a TIFF that is identical to the single PDF page. Then, when I try to treat a PDF with 50 pages that I'm left with is a folder with 150 TIFF files (and not 50 TIFF files - a TIFF for each page of the PDF).

    Here is an example of how files are renamed due to export:

      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0001.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0002.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0003.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0004.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0005.tif

    I tried to use the action on a PDF file that had not been OCR'ed and I had no such problem. The only thing I can think is that it is the OCR which is the origin of each page of the file PDF to split into multiple images? The majority of the files that I need to convert PDF to TIFF had applied OCR.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    In a Save command, you can use the export to TIFF in the output Format.

  • How to change the date format in Lightroom, when importing images?

    When you import into Lightroom, you get the following structure in Lightroom for Macintosh HD.

    Year-> Date.

    I want some level 3 like this structure.   Year-> month-> Date

    How to do this?

    Hi lennartr,

    When you import images, you can change the Date Format in "Copy as DNG, copy or move", but not in the Add box.

    On the right panel, you expand the Destination folder and change the Date Format.

    Let me know if it helps.
