Thanks! Can you check this code... I got it from a chat AI..... it is saving a TIFF as a single layer and saving the profile... #target photoshop
// Main function
function saveTIFWithIncrementalNumber() {
// Specify the directory to save the TIF files
var saveDir = "D:\\Projects\\_IncSave\\"; // Edit this path
// Ensure the directory exists
var saveFolder = new Folder(saveDir);
if (!saveFolder.exists) {
alert("The specified directory does not exist: " + saveDir);
return;
}
// Get the active document
var doc = app.activeDocument;
// Check if the document is untitled
var docName = doc.name;
if (docName.match(/^Untitled-/i)) {
docName = "untitled";
} else {
docName = doc.name.replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, ''); // Remove file extension
}
// Get the file number increment
var fileNumber = getNextIncrementalNumber(saveDir, docName);
// Create the file name with incremental number
var tifFileName = docName + "." + zeroPad(fileNumber, 4) + ".tif";
// Create the file object
var tifFile = new File(saveDir + tifFileName);
// Duplicate the document to preserve the original
var dupDoc = doc.duplicate();
// Flatten the duplicated document
dupDoc.flatten();
// Save options for TIF file

tiffSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
// Save the TIF file
dupDoc.saveAs(tifFile, tiffSaveOptions, true, Extension.LOWERCASE);
// Close the duplicated document without saving
dupDoc.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
}
// Function to get the next incremental number for the file
function getNextIncrementalNumber(dir, baseName) {
var files = Folder(dir).getFiles(baseName + ".*.tif");

I have two scripts I have been using for a while... one saves a incremenal jpg and the other saves a incrmental PNG... both "should" also retain the current pixle dimentison and DPI. (My old png script used to lower the dpi for some reason) PNG Script var saveFolder = new Folder( "D:\\Projects\\_IncSave" );
var saveExt = 'png';
var saveSufixStart = '_';
var saveSufixLength = 3;
// End of user options
var docName = decodeURI ( activeDocument.name );
docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) ? docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) : docName = [ docName, docName, undefined ];
var saveName = docName[ 1 ]; // activeDocument name with out ext
var files = saveFolder.getFiles( saveName + '*.' + saveExt );// get an array of files matching doc name prefix
var saveNumber = files.length + 1;
//alert("New file number: " + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ));
var saveFile = new File( saveFolder + '/' + saveName + '_' + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ) + '.' + saveExt );
saveAsPNG(saveFile, 9);
function zeroPad ( num, digit ) {
var tmp = num.toString();
while (tmp.length < digit) { tmp = "0" + tmp;}
return tmp;
}
function saveAsPNG(saveFile, quality) {
pngOpts = new PNGSaveOptions();
pngOpts.compression = quality; //0-9
pngOpts.interlaced = false;
activeDocument.saveAs(File(saveFile), pngOpts, true);
} JPG Script saveIncrementally();
function saveIncrementally() {
try {
var saveFolder = "D:\\Projects\\_IncSave";
if (!Folder(saveFolder).exists) {
saveFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select output folder");
if (!saveFolder)
return;
}
var saveExt = 'jpg';
var saveSufixStart = '_';
var saveSufixLength = 3;
// End of user options
//==========================================
var docName = decodeURI ( activeDocument.name );
var dot = docName.lastIndexOf(".");
var saveName = docName.slice(0, dot);
var suffix = zeroPad(0, saveSufixLength);
var myFile = saveFolder + "/" + saveName + "_" + suffix + ".jpg";
while (File(myFile).exists) {
var suffixInteger = parseInt(suffix, 10);
suffixInteger += 1;
suffix = zeroPad(suffixInteger, 3);
myFile = saveFolder + "/" + saveName + "_" + suffix + ".jpg";
}
saveJPEG(myFile, 10)
function saveJPEG(saveFile, qty ) {
var saveOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions();

while (tmp.length < digit) { tmp = "0" + tmp;}
return tmp;
}
} catch(e) {
alert(e.toString() + "\nLine: " + e.line.toString())
}
} Can somone that knows how these things work (I copied these form a reddit post that is now locked) and make sure these sctips also save the current colour profile into the image, as if the tick box in the save dialouge is ticked?

Hi I often use scripts to save out PNGs or JPGs from actions that will save a incremental number each time a save occoures.. so if I have a document open and run the save it is docName_000 at the end.. if I save again it is docName_001. These are the setting I use in the PDF file... Here is my current PNG Incremental Save Script var saveFolder = new Folder( "d:\\pathto\\SaveDir" );
var saveExt = 'png';
var saveSufixStart = '_';
var saveSufixLength = 3;
// End of user options
var docName = decodeURI ( activeDocument.name );
docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) ? docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) : docName = [ docName, docName, undefined ];
var saveName = docName[ 1 ]; // activeDocument name with out ext
var files = saveFolder.getFiles( saveName + '*.' + saveExt );// get an array of files matching doc name prefix
var saveNumber = files.length + 1;
//alert("New file number: " + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ));
var saveFile = new File( saveFolder + '/' + saveName + '_' + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ) + '.' + saveExt );
saveAsPNG(saveFile, 9);
function zeroPad ( num, digit ) {
var tmp = num.toString();
while (tmp.length < digit) { tmp = "0" + tmp;}
return tmp;
}
function saveAsPNG(saveFile, quality) {
pngOpts = new PNGSaveOptions();
pngOpts.compression = quality; //0-9
pngOpts.interlaced = false;
activeDocument.saveAs(File(saveFile), pngOpts, true);
} Thanks.. I hope one of the more skilled peeps around here will be able to revamp this script to incrmental save a PDF file using the provided setting. Thanks in advance --Me

Hi there... I posted on your github in the issues section but as there was no posts there at all I thought I would replay directly to this post as well. Hoep that is ok. Hi there... this is a fantastic idea for a script as I use actions all the time and have always wanted something like this.. but I can not seem to get it working. I make 3 actions as a test Open File, Rotate Image 90d Resize image, Rotate image 90d Save as PNG, Close the open image I load up your script.... files/scripts/browse/AdvancedBatch.jsx So I run the file... i have "open supressed" or it will open twice. I have the stops on action 1 and 2.... It loads the image... it stops... I can draw on the file.. then I run action 2, draw , run action 3 (this is what it looks like you are doing in the video)... but it dose not seem to work.. it now errors as it dose not load the next file in the directory. Video Example Also what does ""put stop inside action" mean? in those options mean" Thanks again for your time and your awesome script. I am sure it is just my dumb human error making it not work!

Is there a way to stop a macto mid run to allow me to do an manual edit, and then continue? I can do this manually by running a macro, doing a manual editing and then running a second maco. The thing is I have a lot of files to process so I was hoping there could be a way I could a "automate" and use the "override load" option so it picks the next one in line for me.. but somehow STOP in the middle of it, allow me to edit, and then continue after I let it. This way it could automatcially load the next file in line, I can do the edit, then run the 2nd macro that ends in save, close the document and then the automate picks up the next file. Or is there by any chance a "open next document" option I can use in the 1st macro instead of the normal open command or something like that?

Hi there... I have a bunch of images for print and the printer wants them in a single PDF file.. with each image on a page. They are all the same width and hight and DPI. They are currently all individual images saved on the hdrive.... as 800DPI PNGs, all the same dimentions. (it is a bunch of player card backs and fronts) How can I get all those images into a single PDF file, with a single image on each page? I know I can save as a PDF but it only saves the merged viduable layers, kind of like save as png. I can use a script ot action to save a new PDF for each layer... but then I need to somehow combine them. Is there a way to save a PDF file, with each layer as a seperate page, with no changes to the image file DPI or scale and have no quality loss? If so how can I do this? Or is there a better way to get a bunch of sequential PNG images into a PDF with each image on a diffrent page with no quality loss? Thanks!

Sorry... for some reason I missed the notification email that there was a new reply. I just tested the script and it apears to bne working as I hoped. Just saved a 800DPI image.. and the resulting png was the correct size,pixel count,dpi.... thanks man.

Hi there... I have a script I can run that will save a PNG of the current visiable layers, and then increment the file name. I use this script inside actions to allow me ot save out files during edits. This is my current script. var saveFolder = new Folder( "d:\\PathTo\\SaveFolder" );
var saveExt = 'png';
var saveSufixStart = '_';
var saveSufixLength = 3;
// End of user options
//==========================================
var docName = decodeURI ( activeDocument.name );
docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) ? docName = docName.match( /(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/ ) : docName = [ docName, docName, undefined ];
var saveName = docName[ 1 ]; // activeDocument name with out ext
var files = saveFolder.getFiles( saveName + '*.' + saveExt );// get an array of files matching doc name prefix
var saveNumber = files.length + 1;
//alert("New file number: " + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ));
var saveFile = new File( saveFolder + '/' + saveName + '_' + zeroPad( saveNumber, saveSufixLength ) + '.' + saveExt );
sfwPNG24( saveFile, 80 );
//activeDocument.saveAs( saveFile, jpgSaveOptions ,true ,Extension.LOWERCASE);
function zeroPad ( num, digit ) {
var tmp = num.toString();
while (tmp.length < digit) { tmp = "0" + tmp;}
return tmp;
}
function sfwPNG24( saveFile, quality ) {
var pngOpts = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb;
pngOpts.format = SaveDocumentType.PNG;
pngOpts.PNG8 = false;
pngOpts.transparency = true;
pngOpts.interlaced = false;
pngOpts.quality = quality;
activeDocument.exportDocument( new File( saveFile ), ExportType.SAVEFORWEB ,pngOpts);
} I had this made for me as I have zero understanding about scripting and programming.. I think the problem is the "ExportType.SAVEFORWEB"? Basically if I have 800DPI image 2119x2883 pix 6.73x9.15cm I want it to stay that way... at the moment the script is outputting this... 72DPI 2119x2883 pix 74.75x101.71cm How would I midify this script to retain the existing DPI and print size of a document? Thank you for any help you may have.

In Premier track view where you do you edits you "zoom" to a certian level, you do not look at the entire sequence at once. The "view" you see is indicated by your zoom and this is represented by the size of the scroll bar, as well as the scrol bar position. I am not talking about the play position, but that scroll bar at the every bottom of the track view that controls your postion of your current view and the scale of the view. Are there any hotkeys for this? I find now I am using larger resolution monitoes that I often miss click when tryingto drag it. Maybe I can assign the move of the bar left and right to the mouse wheel or something? What I would like to know if it is possible... Hotkey to scroll the postion of the track view. Maybe 2 sets of hotkeys, one a smaller increment and the other a larger one. I am NOT talking about the playhead. Hotkeys to zoom in and out on the track view. Again, but aweosme if there was increments. If these exists can I assign them to the mouse wheel? Maybe mouse wheel to scroll the track view alt+mouse wheel to zoom in and out? Thanks!

Ripple Trim is a good friend in those cases. (...in all other cases as well.) By @Averdahl I like to delete with shift+del and it dels the selected clips and moves eveything back to the play head line thing... is this a "ripple trim"? If not .. what is it?

I recommend NOT using the razor tool, it's imprecise and a slow way to work. map 'add edit' to a keyboard shortcut instead. I have it mapped to the Y key so I can hit it with my p9nky when J-K-L ing around the timeline By @Ronsuss is "add edit' the ctrl+k thing people are talking about in this thread?.. what does "J-K-L" do?

What am I doing wrong? By @abUSER23 Hold and press the Shift key when you click. When the Shift is pressed the razor tool will cut all clips no matter if they are targeted or not. Targeting tracks comes in to play when you use keyboard shortcuts to cut, such as Ctrl+K. By @Averdahl Thanks.. as I said in the OP, I already knew about the shift+click... but you are saying that the actual cut tool I am looking for is "ctrl+k"... not "c"... and it is "ctrl+k" that uses the "targeted tracks" options I have been told about in this thread?

You need to target all the tracks: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/source-patching-track-targetting.html By @Peru Bob Thanks.. but I think I must be doing something wrong. I have the tracks "targeted" by the blue boxes on the right, as shown in the second video you linked to me... but then I press C for the razor tool and click on the timeline and it only cuts the single clip that I am clicking on no matter what track the video and audio is in. As I understand it from your reply and that video (which dose not demonstarte cutting btw) that all I need to do is click the left blue boxes in the tracks and then the cut should "target" all those tracks.... is that correct? What am I doing wrong? Thanks

When I select the razor tool it cuts but only cuts the clip and linked audio of the clip I click on. If I hold down shift it will cut through all the tracks and all the audio at that point in the timeline no matter how many clips or audio tracks. Is there a way to make this the default behaviour and make shift+click the way it is now. Also, I thought there was a way to set "active tracks" so the razor tool will always cut anything in audio or video tracks with a single click? I can not seem to work it out. Basically I have a number of clips and audio that I wish to edit, so they are always in sync.. so one cut needs to cut all. Through I do not want to have them all linked as it makes it hard to do the various other edits. So I need a way to quickly cut through all the tracks somehow.. Thanks!

My work flow has always included clicking on clips in the program monitor .. this brought up a box.. I culd scale.. move.. do all sorts of things.. but now I can not click on anything.. clicking in the program window dose nothing. To scale and move I now need to use the effects window and enter numeric values. How can I get it back to just being able to click in the program monitor?

I use a lot of action in my work.. and never really had a problem before.. but I tried making a simple action today and I couldn't get it to work. Basically all I want it to do is load every file in a folder, resize it, then same it to a different folder as a jpg. (some are PNGs) I start an action recording I open a file I resize it I save to new folder as jpg.. i use SAVE AS. Then I go to batch and set it up like this... but now every time I run the action I get a dialogue pop up asking me for a save location and file name? Any ideas what is going on here? I have just installed a new copy of PScs6 as I got a new computer, but I swear I have done a zillion of these kinds of action before and it always took all the files in the folder, did what I asked to them and then saved them into the new folder with the same names as they originally had.

When I start a new sequence if I drag around the clips, cut them.. whatever the "timeline" range kind of automatically adjusts to the end point of the last clip in the sequence. Sometimes that doesn't happen, I am not sure why.. I think if you ever change the range it breaks the auto adjust. Anyway the only way I have found to get the auto-adjust back is to start a new clip and paste into it all the data form other other sequence. Now the auto range thing works. Is there a way to enable this in the sequence without doing this?
