Photoshop: move JPG and TIFF saving-options to preferences

This irritates me too, as has been said why is this simply not on the 'to do list' for adobe, such simple coding and it's fixed!?

I make the same selections for saving TIFFs 95% of the time.  Please Adobe just make it so these selections are persistent.  

I'd like to resurface this. I can't believe it's been 8 years since this was originally posted! Lightroom allows setting saving preferences for external applications (which I don't think get respected anyway), why can't Photoshop do that?

It could and should be implemented. The real big elephant in the room however is RLE vs ZIP compression for layered files. This is where we get the really extreme penalty in terms of long save times. 

Apparently, Photoshop defaults to use the settings from the last time someone opened the save as TIFF dialog. So this problem is a constant nuisance  in a workflow where we rutinely output tiff from camera raw. If we save back WE DONT GET THE POSSIBILITY to choose RLE instead of ZIP, which is just super annoying when you got 20 images on screen and have to spend 35 seconds waiting for them to save over instead of 4 seconds with RLE (yes, we measure these things 🙂 ) I can't count the times Ive been asked about why its suddenly taking so long ... 

Its out time thats expensive, not harddisk space. 

Put some checkmarks in the Preferences for choosing layer compression with RLE as default is totally innocuous and should be on the "just do it" list.  

The danger of moving the settings away from the dialog is that people may unintentionally save their layered work as flattened tiff, and only find out what they did when it’s already too late. That risk is far more important to consider than the minimal time gain of not having to click some settings in the dialog box. That is probably why this idea is marked as “Not Planned” and why I think that is the correct response in this case. People can request anything they like, and they may have good reasons to like it, but that doesn’t mean Adobe should honor each request.

That doesn’t mean that Adobe could not implement the request in a different way. What might be an idea is to add a modifier key option, so choosing ‘Save as’ while holding down this modifier key will skip the settings and save the image with the last used settings.

I have simplified my workflow in 100 different ways in 12 years.  I will admit that I haven't spent much time using Bridge for things other than its renaming tool.  And I've never heard of IPP, which doesn't seem super surprising as it doesn't appear to be an official tool.  I'll check it out though.

My workflow also just doesn't often allow for batch processing of a bunch of PSD files into TIFFS.  Often I'm piecing things together in Max or in Unity and so I'm saving out things one or a few at a time as I complete them to see how they look, which then informs what's going to come next.  So a batch flattening wouldn't save me too much more time than just hitting ctrl+shift+s and saving my files as I go.

And you still haven't explained why you don't think having custom defaults for image saving is a bad thing.  For saving with Zip or LZW compression as well, as few people save out uncompressed TIFs, so why force us to default to that?  3DS Max does it.  Premiere and After Effects let you save a bunch of different custom save settings.

The Image Processor Pro extension is a part of Ps, you just need to download and install... in my workflows when i have psd to tif, i use Bridge to select all the files i need flattened, then Tools/Ps/IPP/whichever formats i need. Or if you don't use Bridge and want to go one by one, then set up a kbsc for File/Automate/IPP. Or if you can't be bothered to install the Pro version, then File/Scripts/Image Processor, with an action in the dropdown which flattens the file.
Have you really not simplified your workflow after doing this for 12 years?

Yeah, no. I'm not running my image through another program for something that I currently just need to click two check boxes for.

All I'm asking, and everyone in this thread is asking, for is custom defaults for Tiff options. JPEG remembers what you last did. Why not Tiff? 3DS Max rememebers what your presets are for every image type you save as. It's not some Herculean coding effort and you would get whatever defaults you like for your Tiff saves as well.

And yes I save a working file with layers. I said my working file is a PSD. I use tiffs in game engines and I need them small and flat.

So create a preset in Image Processor Pro and assign that to a kbsc...

do you not save a working file with layers?
