    Isolating and copying Text Letters

    No, that's the original. I'm ashamed to post the one I worked on :sad: !

    Isolating and copying Text Letters

    Yes, it's my only one. I scanned it to a jpg file.

    Isolating and copying Text Letters

    I have a very old (circa 1880/1890) photo of my Great Grandfather's General Merchandise store. I'm trying to restore it as well as possible. I've been able to brighten it up and remove some noise using Camera Raw and some adjustment layers, but I can't figure out how to isolate and copy the...

    Upgrade from CS5 to CS6?

    Thank you all, for your responses. I think that after your feedback that I will continue to use my CS5. I have no use for 3-D work either. My main problem is that so many of the online tutorials use CS6, but the adjustment for using CS5 does not make spending the big-bucks very practical...

    Upgrade from CS5 to CS6?

    I currently have CS5 Extended which I purchased on a hard disk, and would like to upgrade to CS6. My question is, can CS6 be obtained in any way other than Adobe Creative Cloud? That, on a monthly basis, does not interest me at all. Also have there ever been upgrades of Photoshop from one...

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    Thanks MrToM for your offer, but I think I found the problem. All along I've been downloading image files from my camera to either iPhoto or Photos, both MAC photo programs. When I do, they both download the pictures correctly as JPG or NEF, but when I drag to the desktop the NEF pictures...

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    I'm not sure Tom if other NEF would work or not. I have no other camera to produce a file. The D300S is it. I could probably have one emailed from someone who has another NIKON to try.

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    I can't remember for sure if this has always been this way or not. I just made sure that the image I uploaded to PS was a NEF file and didn't worry about the discrepancy. I realize that's not the proper way to do it, but I didn't have the expertise to try and make it right. Since I recently...

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    I sure can! I will put one here , but I'm not sure how to. To upload I need a jpg, jpeg, PNG or GIF. I can save as any of these, but not as a NEF. I can email the file also.

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    Thanks so much! Maybe someone else will have an idea, but in the meantime I will keep trying different things. John

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    Thanks MrToM, I did a reset to original prefs, but no change. I have a question that might be very elementary, but I can't figure it out. Question: Why would the file size be 11 MB in the Photos program and 1.82 MB in the Adobe Bridge program? That sounds like my camera is not being supported...

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    Hi Paul, and thanks for the link. I downloaded it and updated to CR 6.7.1 and still no luck. I'm going to check with a Nikon forum and see if it's the camera. It's still getting a NEF file to my Photos program, but not PS or LR. John

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    Thanks Tom for your response. According to the Adobe Camera Support page CS5 does support my camera. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/camera-raw.html I updated Camera Raw to the latest version; 6.7.1 and still no change. The Photos program still shows that the file is NEF so I know that my...

    RAW file extensions show as jpeg

    I can not get PS and Camera Raw to show my RAW file extensions correctly. All RAW files show everywhere as JPEG files. For this posting I took a few in RAW and the only place I can verify that is in the Apple Photos program. I've checked all the Prefs and don't see anything that I should...

    Filter-Stylize. Only 3 effects available.

    Thanks much! I changed the 'Status Bar' and will work on the changing layer(s) to a smart object tomorrow. That sounds super! You know, I'm retired and still don't have enough time learn all the things I want to!! Tnx again!

    Filter-Stylize. Only 3 effects available.

    Thanks to both of two. Well, now I've learned a lot about 8, 16 and 32 bit mode. It appears that I need to set it to 8 bit mode when I open an image. It defaults to 16 bit unless I change it. That seemed to correct the problem!! I would be lost without people like you two sharing your...

    Filter-Stylize. Only 3 effects available.

    Here's the Menu drop-down. Is that what you mean? Not sure what the "whole UI" signifies. John

    Filter-Stylize. Only 3 effects available.

    Thanks Tom. I checked to make sure the image was 8 bits, but I do not know where to switch to the 8 bits per channel mode. As I mentioned to MRToM, excuse if me if this is very elementary. John

    Filter-Stylize. Only 3 effects available.

    First of all, I'm using Mac Yosemite 10.10.4 and CS5 Extended. I've trying to learn several filter effects and when I try and use Filter-Stylize all it will let me open is Emboss, Fit Edges and Solarize. Can't use any of the other options. I've tried several different images, looked at...
