Not allowed to save image with greater width than 8192px when saving for web. Seems like a silly arbitrary limit, imposed by Adobe. Please remove

Algumas vezes preciso criar carrosséis para o Instagram, e para fazer um trabalho mais ágil e ter uma imagem contínua, monto todo o carrossel em uma única imagem, o que a faz ter um tamanho relativamente grande, utilizo então a ferramenta de fatia (slice tool) para fazer as divisões da imagem. O problema é que, no momento da exportação ("exportar para a web"), a porcentagem de tamanho da imagem acaba ficando abaixo de 100%, sendo que quanto maior a imagem, menor a porcentagem fica. Já tentei aumentá-la manualmente, mas sempre aparece uma mensagem de erro, dizendo que há um limite de tamnho para exportação. Vi que algumas pessoas estão tendo o mesmo problema, mas não encontrei solução ainda.

Hi, have you tried to use "export as" instead of "export for web"?

Bom Dia amigos,

 

Vejam se conseguem em ajudar. Quando faço uma arte no Photoshop em formato carrossel com 10 lâminas e exporto para web, ele reduz as dimensões do arquivo por algum motivo e não consigo alterar as configurações (imagem em anexo) isto me trás sérios problemas, pois tenho que editar lâmina por lâmina para colocar no tamanho aceitável pelo Instagram. Já falei com o suporte mas não tive sucesso. Até um carrrosel de 07 lâminas no formato 7560 x 1080 pixels ele não reduzo, mas quando monto um arquivo fatiado com 8 lâminas ou mais ele reduz o tamanho ao exportar para web e não consigo de forma alguma mudar as dimensões. Desde já agradeço a atenção de todos.

Amazingly, in 2021 this is still a limit. The jpeg workaround someone came up with is nice, but still doesn't work for images with multiple slices. Fortunately, Pixelmator Pro and Affinity Photo (if you're on a Mac) have no issues with arbitrary canvas limits.

Hi

 

I work on super lengthy e-commerce page designs which require slicing all sections and saving them as jpegs which can be directly used with hyperlinks. However each slice is not more than 1500px. These pages are usually 980px width and more than 25,000 px height. I didn't have any issues with exporting slices for these pages until today. Today I am not able to export the slices properly because the page height is more than 8192 px, so its automatically resizing all my slices to a smaller size to fit in the 8192 px range. I know this was an issue earlier but why is this repeating now when we have such powerful machines. Infact yesterday i exported a page with 980 x 28757 px without any issues, so this issue just happened in a day. 

 

Please help, as i don't want to put everything in a smaller document and then slice multiple times. And it seems like a new bug. In the screenshots you can see that the slice is 980px but in save for web window its automatically sized to 279px automatically. And i cant increase it. 

 

Additional issue that i would like photoshop to fix : Save For Web button is not clickable if the document size is more than 30,000 px. Please remove such limits as a lot of people might have documents which are bigger than this.

Not a solution but really? This goes way against web accessibility standards and is terrible design practice. Just saying.

Hey, i understand your concern, but slicing helps a lot to quickly export the sections and since we dont need to code it so this the the way we do it. 🙂 otherwise we'll have to make seperate files for different section which makes it difficult to manage.

Agreed. If this needs to be a cap for non-sliced images, so be it. But for those of us who are slicing up, the final image would NOT be larger than 8192 and rather a collection of smaller images.

Hey guys
Since yesterday I have a problem with the option of " save for web".
First I'll describe my workflow: I'm downloading a png file from adobe XD, uploading it to Adobe Photoshop, slice it to several sections ( to get several files), pick "save for web" and save it as png-8/ png-32/ jpeg.
Until yesterday, everything worked just fine and then on my third file- I sliced it and enter to "save for web" and on the image size it's limited me to a smaller size, while my original file width was 1920px.
you can see here on my Behance project: the file was sliced with the width of 1920px before the problem started. and i tries couple of files (that works fine) and now is limited by size image.
I already chatted with the adobe support (for over an hour and a half!!!) and I felt like there no one listening and really understand the problem or wants to help. we try to download and install photoshop all again, restart the operating system and check and check the preferences --> performance ---> memory usage/ graphic processor setting.
Finally, he told me to reach the forum cause he can't help me (he wasn't trained for this!)
Again, I sliced before png/jpegs files without the limitation of "image size"' it was always on 100% and suddenly it's limiting me. I don't know what is the source of the problem and that's why I'm approaching you to please help me!!! i'm adding pics. thanks

Hi there,

 

I have been trying to export a gif in photoshop for a while now. I am working with 14 frames, each containing an image 8192 x 8192 px each. I have tried reducing the file size, I have tried changing the dither and the colors, I have updated photoshop to 2020, and have tried exporting as gif, but keep getting error message "operation could not be completed." Also tried changing the files names to be more basic... What am I doing wrong??

Olá!

 

Ao salvar para web no photoshop, não consigo mais deixar a porcentagem em 100%, sendo que hoje mesmo por diversas vezes salvei em 100% uma imagem nas dimensões de 9000x1500px (6 imagens para carrossel no instagram de 1500x1500px cada). Alguém mais está tendo esse mesmo problema?

 

 

Ficarei muito grato se alguém der esse help. Valeu!

The total image size in pixel dimensions can not exceed 8192 px width or height.

 

If it does, save for web will scale the image down to fit within those dimensions.
