• Save metadata to file? What is this good for?

  I believe that file > save metadata to file is not really necessary.  I changed some of the metadata as the legend and notes and I do not choose this option in the menu. Then I look at the file in Photoshop, and the metadata has already been updated. Metadata are updated by itself for JPG files, and the XMP file in RAW files gets updated too without getting something more.

  What is good save metadata to file then? Am I missing something?

  Thank you.

  Some types of metadata like captions, notes are written automatically headers file, others, such as keywords, are not.

• Save metadata to file problem

  It's really confusing to me... In catalog settings, I automatically "save changes into XMP" NOT checked. When I want to record, I select all, then "save metadata to file. However, most of the time this saves only the image "Most selected", it does not t create/write to XMP for all files selected? However, I know that it is intended to save all of the selected files and I also know that sometimes it is / has recorded all of the XMP files for me. I can't understand why sometimes it saves all files and some time only "most selected"? I tried in the library and develop Modules. Is there a reason for this or is this some sort of bug?

  I use Lightroom version 3 on a Mac. But I also used to have the same problem on Version 2 as well.

  Thank you very much

• Lightroom 3 - save metadata to file?

  I wonder when, and if, it is necessary to register the metadata in the file?  I copy the RAW images of the card from camera to the DNG data type.  I deleted once accidentally a picture edited with unsaved metadata.   I discovered the image I re-imported from my trash was the original image without the updates that I applied.  I guess that if I had saved the metadata of the image, changes were brought back.  Other that lose changes and other metadata when you accidentally delete a picture, is there other reasons I have to save the metadata in the file?

  In a related question, is the original image without metadata available in any other software, except Lightroom if the metadata has been recorded in the file of the image?

  It is a secondary backup, a convenience. I do use DNG and rely primarily on my backups of the catalog, but I also have the automatic writing of metadata on. It is not slow things down, and my backup target these copies of the DNG work (I have other blank copies so there's little interest).

• Save metadata because of files

  LR 5

  I try in vain to save changes in the module development to the original files. In general, I was able to simply use the dropdown under metadata or do a right click on the image and select "save metadata...". ». That the option is currently grey however.

  I opened the file in PsCs5 to see if I had perhaps already saved changes, but the file is located in its original undeveloped state. I'm sure its something fundamental, and it would be nice if a balloon would popup when you try to click a command grayed out to say, ' you have to _ first in order to use this feature ", but I digress. All Adobe are updated.

  As a side note, I like to make a copy of my original files, (in this case CR2), adjustments to perfom on. That my skills, (I hope!), I have the ability to create a new copy and try a completely different approach without overlay of new adjustments above a file with the previous settings saved to it. Is it possible to simply make a copy duplicate, not virtual reality, in lightroom? This seems, to me, a basic function that Lr seems to discourage the use of the if not deny completely. I don't know it's asking a lot.

  Thank you for your time!

  You can not save the metadata in a virtual copy. It would be my guess as to why the option is grayed out. You can only save to the original metadata. The "original" and "copy" being essentially arbitrary, you can exchange the virtual to the original by using the "set as master copy" under the Photo menu.

  Regarding duplication of files in Lightroom, the only way I can think to do that is for export, which can create a duplicate file (set the file settings > Format of Image to Moose). Leave the rest out (i.e. Image calibration) options, but you will need to rename the files, if you plan on placing them in the same folder. Make sure that "Add to catalogue" is enabled (in the export location).

• Save for Web file of Preview size is not accurate (300%)

  I have a jpg 106 k.

  In save for Web the size of preview shows to 11.85 k (quality 15).

  Save the file. The size is 49 k - 300% more that the survey estimate.

  (why?)

  Which version of photoshop and the operating system are you using?

  Looks like you have some metadata save with the file.

  Where it says set metadata from scratch and see if that makes a difference.

  

• How to save metadata as .xmp .jpgs?

  In LR 2.5, I chose "save metadata to the .xmp files" in the catalog settings, and I did NOT choose "including developing parameters inside jpeg, tiff,...»  However, I notice that metadata are stored in .xmp files for photos in RAW format (which for me is. ORF, the Olympus RAW format).

  In JPEG format, metadata seems to be saved in the jpeg format.  It's not ideal in my situation, because when I save the pictures using rsync (or the time machine), all JPEG files, where I changed the metadata will be saved once again, causing a lot of data to back up, when a tiny .xmp would actually be enough.  Is there a way to make sure that JPEGs are inherently not affected, and all information is stored in the .xmp sidecar files?

  Second question: if I select "store all the metadata in xmp", what is this stored?  Whenever I make a change?  Or do I have to explicitly select the command 'Save metadata' a folder?

  Thank you very much! Luca.

  RAWs reason are that only with sidecar XMP and jpg only, besides the fact it's easy to record metadata in jpg compared to the RAWs, is that when a camera takes snapshots RAW + JPG two files have the same name except for the extension and so when there is a XMP with the same name except for the extension It is not clear if its metadata was for RAW format or the JPG file.

  I'm on a PC, so don't know how does TimeMachine work, but a well-made backup stores the differences between the files, not the entire file, for each cycle and also use block checksums to see what parts of the file have changed, so there is no need to read all the backup file, or store entire folders as part of the backup process.

  There is a save metadata for the order of files and there is a metadata record automatically... preference.  Either we write things in the XMP for the RAWs or image files themselves for formats that support it.  I usually have automatically save... active metadata but I also explicitly write to the files before doing things like purging files from my main drive and lead away them to a backup device because LR seems to be the automatic metadata record... working in the background and it is never clear when it's over.

• Force firefox to open, not save the .url files.

  Hello!

  I need a way to Force Firefox to open, not to save the .url files. These files are generated by an application. The application is listed in the list of software and has the setting to open. But when the. URL link is clicked it will ask only to save. I need to open the file. not to save it.

  Thanks in advance.

  A .url file is a type of special file created by Microsoft.
  Firefox is a cross-platform application and can't stand all the platform-specific files as does a browser that is designed for this platform.

  Try to ask for advice on forum of stack overflow's website to see if they know of an alternative.

• How to save a PDF file in Adobe so it appears correctly in the Firefox default drive?

  I have seen discussions on how to change your own settings of Firefox for poster correctly PDF files (documents to look at a PDF in Firefox 19 +) However, I'm looking for a solution on how to save a PDF file so that they display correctly in the new default Firefox reader. Our files PDF is bad looking and I can not go in the browser of each clients and difficulty settings (http://www.cherrybekaertbenefits.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/ACA_Infographic_072114.pdf). Meet them all parameters within the Acrobat Distiller is going to fix this without the Viewer to enter their own arrangements?

  Hmm, not a subtle difference.

  We did not have many experts PDF or Adobe Illustrator users post advice here; those who might be sprinkled around on other forums, blogs or support sites.

  I noticed when you view the properties of the PDF in Adobe Reader that the PDF has been created with optimization for active fast Web view. This is a feature that allows the progressive rendering of PDF files over a slow connection (http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/optimize-native-pdf-file-sizes.html#...). You can try to re - generate the PDF file with this feature turned off to see if that makes a difference?

• No option to save/open Pages files to the hard drive

  In the Pages on my MacBook Pro, I can access only now the iCloud.

  If I want to open a file, it only gives me those in the cloud, no way to navigate to those recorded on the real MBP.

  If I want to save a file, it only gives me the ability to save in the cloud, not for the real MBP.

  I checked "Help", which only says: choose "save under" and choose the folder. Who don't show up with two problems 1) no "Save as" in the menu more and 2) no way to choose any place other than the cloud.

  I had a quick glance at all parameters which seemed even vaguely be connected to Pages, but found nothing useful either. I have no idea if or what I changed in the first place.

  Naturally, I don't want or need to save ALL my files on a cloud. So, how can I teach Pages to simply do what I want?

  The following example was made with v5.6.2 on OS X 10.11.5 Pages.

  When you save a document, Pages remembers this location for the next open or save operation. The default open view will probably look like this in iCloud Drive: folder Pages. If you click on this Pages - iCloud selector, you can see the locations of the other folders. Choose one and then click on new Document.

  

  If you click on that left most button on the open Panel, it will hide the left panel of Favorites and give you this point of view even more disconcerting:

  

  You have a few choices to save a document. The first thing you need to do when you create a new document is to select the file menu: Save... and choose a location to save it under one name other than Untitled.pages. This will start the automatic backup (about every 15 seconds locally) and also the version back to history. There is also a facilitator Option key for the file that changes menu duplicate in save under... The default save Pages panel is minimalist and can cause some confusion over available save slots.

  

  Again, you can develop the where: selector to choose a local drive location, or you can click on the arrow pointing downwards in the annotation of the red circle. When you do this, a much larger window appears with the familiar left from the Favorites panel, and to choose a new save location. Once you have done this, you can also choose to make a new folder in this location to save and by clicking on the "Save" button, your document is placed in the folder that you just created.

• Re: How to save the video file to a DVD-R for Equium A200

  I have the Equium A200. Someone can tell me how to save the video file to a DVD-R on my computer in order to use it later, or use it in windows movie maker and must not simply copy on another DVD-R right?

  My cursor also has disappered in the suite of windows media, that makes life quite difficult.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  You mean, you want to copy the original DVD movie to HARD drive?
  Well, you can copy the contents of the entire DVD to the HARD drive. It means that you have to copy a lot of data.
  I would recommend shrinking the DVD movies using a tool called DVD shrink.
  It would decrease the data and would also copy the content to the HARD drive.

  But if you want to use these files later in windows movie maker, so you must convert these using a 3rd party tool.
  Google a bit and you should find many free applications that would help you to do this work.

  Good bye

• How to save as Excel file type?

  There is no type of Excel file under the feature "save under".  Is to include the Excel file type under this list anyway?  Attached snapshot.

  Hi NiCoder,

  You have a number of different options to get data from the data portal DIAdem to Excel:

  1) record in TDM or PDM file and use the free Excel TDM importer to load the data into Excel

  2) Save to CSV file and use the Excel import feature built-in ASCII file to load the data into Excel

  (3) load the GPI - DLLS gfsexcel.dll and use the "file > save under...". ' option to export a data *.xls file

  (4) use an own VBScript to automate one of the above 3 options

  (5) use a VBScript custom to directly send each channel data of the data portal to a column of values in Excel via ActiveX

  (Option 1) and (2) are easier if you want a purely interactive solution.  Option 1) exports all data and all the properties values.  Option 2) exports all data values and the name of each channel in the data portal, but none of the other properties.  If you choose to use option 3), know in advance that this feature is limited to 255 columns and will not export custom properties, only the properties that existed in DIAdem 8.1.  (Option 4) can add in any custom properties that do not appear in option 2).  Option 5) can export all data and all custom, properties but there are also the slowest option and implies more programming.

  Let me know what sounds better to you,

• Write to measure file by default to 'save to a file.

  I am using the 'write to Measurment queue' to do a series of files - but as soon as I hit ok it is default to 'save to a file. Even without running the VI he defines simply himself back. I have attached files what it looks like before you hit OK, the settings, and what happens when I close.

  Maybe it's a bug?

  Also, if you can see, I don't want the file to be called testdata__, but there is no way to change the prefix of the file because the area is grayed out. Any way to change this either?

• HP7520: How to scan 2 pages with the automatic document feeder and save to a file?

  How can I scan 2 pages with the automatic document feeder and save to a file?  (Right now, it happens that 2 separate files)

  I have a HP7520, & again, I wish scan 2 pages into a single jpeg file.

  Thank you

  Well, in general JPEG format does not support several concept as a document page. Thus, each image in the JPEG file is saved in a single file. If you are considering of reduction of 2 images in 1 paper size (example: A4), you may need some image editor to do

  If you are looking for a mulit-page image format, TIFF can be a format suitable to use.

• Save to spreadsheet files *.txt

  Hello.

  I have a program that creates a 2D, measures table.

  Then, I want to give the user an option to save to a file.

  So I chose the VG function "write on the worksheet file.vi"(peut-être que vous pouvez suggérer de faire autrement). "."

  Then, when it runs the dialog box opens to ask where to save the file. Empty file name, and the file type is "all files". What I want is to set the default *.txt file type, if the user do not care about this.

  How can I do?

  Thank you

  The function of file dialog box has an entry called "model (all files). Set this value *.txt.
