Have about 4000 images I'm converting from jpg to pdf. The first 10-20 are being converted perfectly but the rest are coming out as blank 1K pdf files. The original jpg files seem to be normal and I'v tried removing files so it only works on smaller numbers of files that is not helping. I've tried running the app in the background. The machine is a Windows XP Pro SP2 machine with 2.80GHz processor and 1GB RAM. It's only job is to serve files with little if any traffic.
I am using CS6 to import a number of pdf files in RGB then remove a coloured identifying stripe then convert to grayscale before saving as a tif file. This was working ok, using IMAGE>MODE to convert to grayscale, but suddenly this has stopped working and will not convert the coloured image unless I first convert it to indexed colour. The pdf files have been obtained from scanned images using Vuescan.
The earlier files I worked on, the pdfs were created from PS. (Best not get into the reasons, as it would take too much time). I opened one of the Pixillion pdf files in PS and saved it as a pdf from PS. When I opened that new pdf in PS it converted to grayscale without any problem. I also found that converting the imported pdf to a tif file by saving it as a tif allowed t
Win: Press and hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift immediately after initiating Photoshop's startup. A box will appear asking if you want to continue with the reset, select "yes." If you don't see this, you weren't fast enough...Try again.
As far as I can see, the problem is not associated with the external scanning program as that has not changed. For various reasons of convenience the files are scanned and saved as a colour tif file, converted to pdf in Pixillion Image converter. then opened in Photoshop in RGB mode, all necessary clean-up operations performed then converted to grayscale and saved. As a matter of checking I opened an original colour scan file that has already been done and tried to convert it to grayscale (which has already been done successfully) and it would not change, thus it appears to be something that has changed within PS.
Pardon my lack of clarity. You'll be resetting Photoshop's preferences. If you received a message about plugins, that means only Shift was giving input...Holding Shift while launching Photoshop gives the option to skip loading any third-party plugins.
Photoshop CS6 is not being updated, nor has it been for quite some time. That, along with the sudden behavior change, would seem to indicate Photoshop's preferences have a problem. Can't guarantee this will fix the problem, but quite likely it will.
I went to the Adobe online help, where it says those keys should be held down when starting PS. As I only have the use of one hand, I got my wife to hold down the keys while I started PS - it started as normal, with no message about preferences. We tried it a few times with the same result.

The reasons for the various file formats relate back to earlier requirements when distributing copies and are irrelevant to the question asked, which is why I did not waste time explaining. The reason for using Pixillion is that it can batch convert a folder full of files to different formats - much quicker than doing one at a time in PS.
Although it is irrelevant to the question asked : The original pages which I am scanning were printed in black and white, many years ago (thus printing quality is poor). They were originally filed as loose leaf documents and are colour coded with stripes of various colours to indicate which original documents each page belongs to. I am scanning in colour so that I can remove the coloured stripes before converting to grayscale to "clean up" and sharpen the original text.
The reason I am not using "convert to profile" is because I don't understand it, or how to create the settings which I need (or even, what settings I need) and using the grayscale mode works perfectly well for me over the few hundred pages that I have scanned for this project.

I also found that converting the imported pdf to a tif file by saving it as a tif allowed the grayscale conversion to work. Thus not a PS problem at all and easily handled for future files.

I've recently upgraded to Windows 11 and find myself in need of converting a large number of HEIC images to PNG format so I can edit and share with others. These images (around 600) are copied from my iPhone 14 Pro Max.
I'm looking for an efficient and reliable method that can handle bulk conversions without compromising the quality of the images. It's important that the process is streamlined and doesn't require extensive manual intervention, as I'm dealing with hundreds of photos.
Could anyone suggest the best approach for converting .heic to .png on Windows 11? Ideally, I'm looking for a solution that balances ease of use with functionality, and it would be great if it's something that won't be too heavy on system resources. Any tips or personal experiences with specific tools would be greatly appreciated!
There are tons of these out there. Some popular ones include TunesBro HEIC Converter, Dr.HEIC or AnyConv. These apps are usually pretty straightforward: you load your HEIC files and then export them as PNGs. They often come with options to keep the original quality, which is a big plus.
2. Adobe Photoshop: If you've got Photoshop, it can handle HEIC files and save them as PNGs. This is more if you want to do some editing before converting, but it's a solid, if not overqualified, option.
3. Online Converters: If you're not keen on downloading software, online converters like CloudConvert or Online-Convert can be lifesavers. Just keep in mind the upload and download time, plus the privacy concerns with uploading your photos online..
