Trying to figure out why this is happening. I could understand it if I was shooting an entire bill, or a major portion of one, but this doesn't make sense.

The first image is one I shot and worked about a week ago. Photoshop didn't give me any grief, it just did what it was supposed to do. Second shot is one I tried to open yesterday and Photoshop wouldn't open it. I got a message about counterfeiting.

I understand their concern, but I don't understand it being applied to this image. Anyone know how to work around this. Is it just because a few letters show up in the serial number?I don't really want to lose a client because of Photoshop.

Hi there,

Editing currency is not possible in Photoshop because of the integrated Counterfeit deterrence system, please have a look here to know more: Counterfeit deterrence system (CDS) | Photoshop

I still don't understand why Photoshop worked with the first image, but not the second. I suppose they could be worried about me counterfeiting the top left hand corner of a bill, but it seems kind of silly to me that it edited one shot, but not the other.
