JPG option to save is saving as JPF

[Naranda24684259bhuz]

Hi all, 

Just tried to save multiple photos using the JPG/JPG 2000/JPF etc... usual option for JPG and my files are saving as JPF. How do I fix this?

Thank you 

[Koekoe]

Thanks Brian. I've changed my colour space to adobe RGB but it will wants to save as a .jpf first. I suppose I will just have to live with the extra action (changing jpf to jpeg every time I save). I'm having the same problem with export. And for some reason when I create a F2 action for export (resize, export, to specific folder), the action discards the export to a specific folder and the image I tried to export is nowhere to be found.

It appears that you are either not reading or not understanding what has been stated multiple times in this topic.

You have two options, either use Save As a Copy and or set the Legacy Save As option in Preferences/File Handling.

I don't know how I can say that differently!

Export As/Quick Export can't be recorded into an Action.

Your valid choices for JPEG in an action are Save As a Copy or Export > Save for Web (Legacy).

Right. You say it once, you say it twice, three times...

How they must regret at Adobe engineering that change they did in CS5 in 2010....getting that particular toothpaste back in the tube has been a spectacular failure.

The great irony is that they did it to make users happy. For years there had been requests to allow direct saving to jpeg from 16 bit layered files. Repeated attempts to explain to people that it wasn't quite as simple as that, didn't seem to register. So in the end they gathered the team and devised a hack to make it happen.

Just think about it. Had they done nothing in 2010, everything would have been business as usual the whole time and Photoshop would have been in perfect alignment with every other image editor on the planet.

Instead we got...this. Oh, how they must regret it.

You cannot say it differently nor more clearly. What you don't get is that it's not acceptable. I don't accept that Adobe can go a screw things up and then tell everyone to suck it up.  Not acceptable. Bad behavior. Thoughtless. Rude. Bordering on hostile. I don't know how I can say it any more clearly.

The OP was incorrectly selecting JPEG 2000 format instead of JPEG. They thought that both formats were the same as they both have JPEG in their name. They are not the same thing though.

That's not what happened. Apple changed their API and forced Adobe to come up with a new hack for jpegs when the hack they created in 2010 stopped working.
• As of 22.4.1, you can find png, jpg, pdf, etc., in Save a Copy.
• As of 22.4.2 you can revert to the previous behavior in Preferences > File Handling > File Saving Options:

• Enable Legacy Save As
• Do not append Copy to filename

Hello Koekoe did you change it in adobe camera raw or photoshop?

It needs to be in camera raw, when you open an image it should show the image details if is wrong click on it and preferences comes up, change colour space to what you want, adobe rgb and check it is 8 bits/channel click ok.

it worked for me and only had to do this once.  Good luck

[D Fosse]

@Brian Martinr1  I'm going to repeat this once again, in addition to all the times I've already said it earlier in the thread:

The jpeg file format specification does not support layers, 16 bit depth, transparency or alpha channels. These properties are not possible in a jpeg.

Do you see how this connects? Adobe RGB or sRGB is irrelevant.

[D Fosse]

If you understand the nature of file formats and their limitations, the current policy makes a whole lot more sense than the hack they used from CS5 to CC 2021.

I very much welcomed it when it happened. Now the save procedure is finally transparent and logical, making it clear what is acually happening, instead of obscuring it.

exactly! SO frustrating!! 

i can't even open the jpf files it made me save them as. it keeps saying error !!
