How to export a Photoshop (Mac) file that can be opened with a PC version of the CAD software
Hi all
I'm trying to deliver a photoshop graphic to my friend w / a PC and a CNC machine it will use to cut out my chart. Unfortunately, he has trouble opening the graphics that I send him, even though I tried all the standard formats (.pdf, .png, .tif, bpm). What he needs is a .dxf or .dwg file that I think... And there are tons of ".". "PDF to DWG converters" out there (I've downloaded several). Problem is, when I try to open my .pdf and then export and/or registered as a .dwg file, it saves in an empty file! When I reopen the .dwg file to check it out, there is nothing there.
For anyone who is interested to help me, here is a link to my photoshop file (it is reduced to 24 "tall and 48" wide):
Dropbox - TheSpaceCastle_Logo2.psd
And here is the PDF:
Dropbox - TheSpaceCastle_Logo2.pdf
Here I am pasting a .jpg image file: (the widget download told me that .pdf files are 'prohibited'... lol? It is a Forum of ADOBE. Why a .pdf file could not?)
Found the solution:
I had my friend vectorize my original FIRST file in Illustrator and created a .ai file. It was not a type of simple file conversion. Then, she saved the vector, that she created as a .dxf file. It is necessary to first vectorization.
I don't know the exact process, she used to vectorize the file, but I'm sure that it involved the tracing of the image and the creation of a new vector ('path' in Photoshop?).
I confirmed this morning with the designer CNC he managed to extract the file in the CAD software for its CNC machine, and it seems good.

Files open with an earlier version of the bridge
I installed Photoshop CS6 - 64 bit, but the bridge guard opening the pictures in my CS5 that is still on my computer. How can I change this so that it will open the photos in Photoshop CS6?
Just like a guess you have Bridge CS5 running the background. To check the open Task Manager and click the processes tab. See if you see that BridgeCS5.exe listed. If so, go to advanced in Bridge Preferences and uncheck "Start with the connection".

How can I increase the number of PDF files that can be open at the same time of 20?
I like the new pdf viewer integrated into Firefox a lot because I'm constantly review sheets at work. However, he seems to have a limit of 20 simultaneous files. The machine I work has no danger of running out of memory anytime soon, so is there a setting I can change to increase this limit?
Thank you.Hello michael, this limit is not directly related to the pdf files in the internal viewer, but you can try the following workaround: enter about: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named dom.workers.maxPerDomain. Double-click the preference and set it to a higher value.

I downloaded and installed the camera Raw 8.8 and ORF files that will always open in Lightroom 5.7. The files were made using the new Olympus E - M5 II, who is on the list of supported devices. When I run Lightroom and check the on the screen, it says it's Lightroom version 5.7, but Camera Raw 8.7 despite my having upgraded to 8.8. I use a MacBook Pro with OS 10.7.5 Please advise on how to import and use ORF files in Lightroom.
The files were made using the new Olympus E - M5 II, who is on the list of supported devices.
Yes, this camera is supported by Camera Raw 8.8.
Camera Raw plugin | Supported devices
However, the required 'Version of Lightroom Minimum' column is empty. Lightroom does not yet support it.
Like the so-called Warunicorn, Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw using Photoshop plugin. It uses its own Raw conversion engine so you have to wait for an update of Lightroom separate for this camera edit Raw files in Lightroom. Or use the DNG Converter and work with the DNG in Lightroom.

Hi, I am looking to save important legal email a text or document file that can be opened by word or a generic document program because lawyers have no firefox. Any help appreciated thanks
The integrated capability that you can use is to save e-mail messages in HTML format. File | Save under... and you select HTML as the file type. It will be opened in a browser, or even a word processor. But they can be complicated to transport since there are often an auxiliary file for embedded images.
I hope that if you save messages in format eml native, your lawyer email client should be able to open them.
In both cases, the ImportExportTools add-on - it can make your life easier if you need to record a large number of messages.
I think a safer option for you would be to print to PDF. If your OS has not this built, there are various free PDF writers. My own experience with the lawyers, it's that they seem to like the PDF format, so that they are likely to have a PDF reader. And of course Windows had PDF display and built-in since Windows 7 capacity-building.

Will be Adobe Camera Raw DNG Converter 7.4 or the work version 8.7.1 on premium design CS5.5 Adobe on a MAC OSX Version 10.7.5 Lion, I recently acquired a new X100S of Fuji camera that is listed on 7.4 Mac download, I can't open the files Raw of RAF of the camera in photoshop CS 5.5 or will I have to spend to CS6 and it will work then? Thank you very much, Paul
I'm afraid that the answer is the same as your other request. It is not a question of the difference between Photoshop CS 5.5 and the Design Premium version. This is the version number. And Photoshop CS Design Premium 5.5 is only compatible with Camera Raw up to 6.7. The DNG Converter is always your best choice if you're not ready to upgrade your Photoshop.
But then I realize I have not read your question closely. The DNG Converter does not work with any program. It is a separate stand-alone program which is used only to create copies of your DNG (digital negative) raw images. You can use the DNG Converter as your software download, conversion of images as they are transferred to your computer. Then, you will be able to open them with older versions of Camera Raw that are compatible with your version of Photoshop. Some people fear that the DNG Converter means a step further. But if you use it in your download software, I think you will find that it can streamline things considerably.
When you configure the DNG Converter, make sure that a compatibility option that is compatible with your version of Camera Raw. Also, take note that the DNG Converter will prompt you for a FILE containing raw images. Choose the folder, but do not open it.

How to export to a .sfw file? It does not give me the option FILE > EXPORT. I installed Flash and everthing.
The functionality to export SWF directly from After Effects files has been removed. He never worked at all well.
Use Flash Professional to create SWF files.
If you want to play a movie that you created in After Effects in a container SWF, and then export your composition using Adobe Media Encoder to the H.264 format and then link or embed this movie in a SWF file in Flash Professional.

How to access the tab 'Save all' when I close several jpeg files that have been adjusted with the "color adjust tool? He is currently making me close and save one at a time. I've just upgraded to El Capitan. Thanks for any help :)
I assume that you use the application overview.
I can't find an answer to back up everything, but a workaround could be while the file menu options are visible, press the option key
and the point of the window will become close, if you click on that dialogue will ask you if you want to restore the changes or save
pressing Save will close the image with the changes and then move to the next image and so on.
