Save the PNG as gray color space

Hi all

I searched high and low for a good answer to that, but no luck so far:

I have a file I want to save as a mask for an application.

The image must be:

Format: PNG

Space color: gray

Alpha channel: No.

I put the following to my file HAVE: the effects of rasterization of the Document settings: Colormode: grayscale

I changed my Edit-> Edit colors-> convert to grayscale (but the text "Convert to grayscale" don't is not grayed out next time I look at the menu problem?)

I then save the file to the Web, and devices such as a PNG-24 or PNG - 8 (gray scale, no dithering) but no matter how I save the information file indicates always that the 'color space' of the file is of type RGB. I can't save the file with a space color: gray.

I'm doing something wrong, but what?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards

Smulan

Have you tried using Photoshop to re-register as grayscale, or maybe something like GraphicConverter?

    My product uses 100 + white icons on a transparent background. How can I save icons with a color background, so I can see the icons in the folder view - but keep the cutting of the icon? Can I use an alpha matte, or a mask?

    Without a color background, the white icon on a white background looks empty and cannot display

    PNG does not support masks. However, the program that you use to display the png can allow you to change the background color.

    Another option is to create a duplicate png image that has a colored background. You can add the color name to make sure that you don't overwrite the original.

  • Save to PNG using IMAQ file write file does not save good Gray Scale

    Hi - I have a simple VI which reads a raw U16 file and then try to save the option IMAQ write PNG file (because I want the 16-bit format).

    I defined a custom color table which is just opposite of gray, and this is applied to the image.

    The Image displays properly, but saves the PNG file with non-inverted grayscale.

    U16 RAW file is titled "Martha 1849-02-001-6 - view0000_raw_grey_16bit.raw' and sent to ftp://ftp.ni.com/incoming. "

    How is it and how do we get this working correctly?

    Thank you

    No! your custom color table to display the images, not apply to the image.

    In additional, it cannot save the palette as well as the 16-bit image. The pallet can be stored with 8-bit 'indexed' image.

    What you can do - if you need just reverse gray, use IMAQ opposite to calculate the negative value of an image.

  • Save the offsets of colors by activating / disabling out ProPhoto RGB in the course

    I'm working on a portrait with the following specifications

    color space: sRGB

    8-bit/channel

    300 dpi

    TIF

    When I do a backup as there is a check mark in the box that says ' ICC profile: ProPhoto RGB.  The printer wants the picture saved as sRGB, so I uncheck the ProPhoto and save without layers.  When I opened the file is saved, he has a terrible gray color to the photo cast.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Paul

    Maybe you DON'T THINK that you work in the sRGB color space, because you can be misinterpreted the parameters.

    Use the small field of status at the bottom left of your work area to see which profile is actually using the document.

    To change the profile of your use of the documents to Edit - convert to profile, set - or - use the file - Save for Web & devices function with the option [] convert to sRGB .

    The Camera Raw Converter can be configured to open a document in one of the several color spaces - I think you have your expected to open in the ProPhoto RGB color space.

    Moreover, I still normally the following boxes checked in the Photoshop color settings to remind me when I open a document that is not in my favorite sRGB color space.

  • problem with the color-space conversion

    I am under Photoshop CS5 x 64 with the latest updates, with the latest updates win7x64 too.

    Pictorial seal use AdobeRGB color space to work. The histogram of the image is good.

    If I convert the image in sRGB color space, the Red becomes saturated.

    This very clearly shows the histogram of the Red layer.

    This problem occurs in colorimetric settings perceptual and relative, as well as Photoshop X 86

    With its engine color of Microsoft, the red channel is less saturated.

    In my understanding, in perceptual mode, color-space conversion should create any saturation in the image.

    Please can you tell me if this behaviour is expected?

    Concerning

    Nicolas

    It is simply that your shadow (if there are shadows in space) is not neutral - they have a strong, dominant blue/cyan:

    These deep blues are outside the gamut sRGB and clip. The red channel (the opposite or complementary color) wants to go further, but can't.

    If it is a raw capture, you can use the split toning slider for red push in the shadow (to make them neutral). Or you can use curves in the Adobe RGB file, or the channel mixer or a number of other things.

  • Repeat the action and save the file

    Hello

    I'm having a fever and is trying to accomplish something that seems very simple not knowing anything about scripting.

    I made an action that applies to some simple effects (blur, threshold and high pass). I want to do is to repeat the action of n times and save an additional for each repetition png so I find myself with a sequence of files numbered from the action more applied (as in this example, Photoshop Cs5 filters Animation on Vimeo).

    After som Googling, I ended up using AppleScript and was able to repeat the action for as many times as I want, but I'm completely stuck on the file save game. That's what I have right now:

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    say application 'Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.5'

         set Starting point to current document

         set theFilePath to path of the file of current document

    Repeat with n from 1 to 10

    set myFile to theFilePath & ': output: image ' & { n channel } & ".png"

    do "CrazyAction" of "Default Actions"

    { Save document in file myFile as PNG with options { }classPNG save options interwoven:fake} :

    end Repeat

    end say

    In case someone comes up with the solution I also have another related question: How can I make sure that the output file names will have a padding of the number? Ideally, I'd end up with image2.png and so on, rather than image1.png image001.png, image002.png.

    Thanks in advance!

    One of the things you can do with javascript you can not do with applescript is to use the scriptlistener plugin. This plugin is put into the photoshop plug-ins folder, and when he's here (you don't want to leave it there all the time) it will record about everything you do, kind of like an action, but it generates the code in a file on your desktop. I used it for recording an action to save the png and running. The parts of the code are in the functions in the script. So I just created a folder name of base, a base file name and a counter of departure. The script will then execute your action and save a png image in this folder and change the name of the base by the counter file increases by one each time. You must put in the name of your action and the name of the action as defined in the script.

    #target photoshop
    var fileName = 'myFile-';
    var folderPath = new Folder (Folder.desktop +'/action test/')//create whatever path you want here. Make sure the folder exists!
    var doc = activeDocument;
    var counter = 1//counter for changing the filename
    
    for (var i=0;i<4;i++){//Change number 4 to whatever number you want it to repeat + 1
        runMyAction ("twirl", "Chuck");//put in action name and action set name. This line can be duplicated for different actions.

  • Problem of color space?

    Comparison.jpg

    It's probably a very simple question that I hope someone can easily understand. I process my images to enjoy LR4 and then export them as jpg in the sRGB color space. When I opened the in programs like "Windows Picture Viewer" they look just like they do in LR, but when I download on my Web site or in a software like IrfanView view the images seem terribly supersaturated. I should also mention that it seems that I have to add saturation a little longer than normal to get them looking right into LR. I guess that there are some settings that I am wrong. Can someone help me understand what it could be?

    Thank you! I really enjoy this great forum and all helpful people here!

    Erik Stensland

    Looks like I solved the problem. I deleted the old profile of color space and re-calibrated using sRGB as my target so that my images in LR will look the same when I post on the web or send them to my printer. I thought I had done that but aparently he showed too wide a range as B r e t t mentioned. Thank you all.

    Nice!  You can send a JPG file. You can duplicate in the application (but it'll be another 8G)

    I don't know if it is possible to verify with a free account, but you could look in the files online.

    I would like to know if it works:

    2. you can download the .jpg or .png file

    3. on this site, you can also duplicate the project as a backup.
