@medienvirus Sehr informatives Video, das eindrücklich zeigt, wie stark #Adobe #GenerativeFill bestimmte Retusche-Arbeiten in Photoshop verändern wird. Ehemals stundenlange Frickelarbeit wird auf Knopfdruck erledigt.

Die generative Füllung ist aus meiner Sicht das bislang überzeugendste Werkzeug von #AdobeFirefly. (Sogar die Perspektive bei Bildern mit Architektur stimmt).

Best part is, it uses a QR code pairing system so you can invite other people to view the progress as well. It runs in #Adobe Media Encoder.

@danielpunkass This makes sense. #Adobe used "Sensei" as its branding for all of its AI-powered R&D and tools for a while and it actually got talked about. Apple could do the same, and Apple Intelligence is the perfect name in that it fits how they've been naming things lately and of course, the #ai acronym.

I really recommend #AdobeFirefly. The quality is up there with Midjourney, much better than Dall-E 2, and ethically sourced from artists who consented to their work being used.

It also embeds the fact that it was generated by AI in the image.

Hoping #Adobe will acknowledge there’s an actual #programming #bug in recent versions of #Acrobat and it's not just operator error. When a #PDF is opened and set to #FitPage mode, Acrobat will #truncate a small bit on the bottom, as shown by the slight scroll up and down in this video. Adobe support had me try both Read Mode and Full Screen Mode, and the bug still exists. (One rep amusingly told me to use Command+C instead of the correct Command+L for Full Screen Mode. :-) )

And of course there are trust issues. A lot of what Firefly can be used for is fanciful fun, and Adobe prohibits its use for porn, violence, and fakes that can harm people.

Wow, (over) 30 years of the PDF. I use them daily. From the linked article:

"The concept of PDF - Portable Document Format - actually began with the Camelot Project in 1990. And Camelot itself would be nothing without the very backbone of the idea, PostScript, which started all the way back in 1985, and kickstarted the desktop publishing software revolution.

Back in those days, cross-platform compatibility was a nightmare, which led Dr. John Warnock, co-founder of Adobe, to initiate that project. Its goal was simple in its concept but ambitious in its execution: create a format that would enable anyone to send any document electronically to anyone else, and that person would be able to read and even print it with its formatting perfectly preserved.

...to us jaded computer users nearly at the end of the first quarter of the 21st century, this may sound like nothing to be excited about, but back in the 80s and 90s, which was the personal computer’s infancy, this was a big deal.

...back then, you couldn’t be sure which software someone would be using. You wouldn’t even know which fonts were installed on their machine. If you used one that wasn’t in that other computer’s repertoire, it could at best mess up your document’s formatting. To make matters worse, there was the Mac/Windows divide which was often viewed as a deal-breaker. Many remained convinced a file created on one type of computer could not be opened on another."

Does anyone know of a tool to help manage collections in #Adobe #Lightroom and #LightroomClassic? I get 100GB of Adobe cloud storage (work provided, can't upgrade), and effectively unlimited local storage, but Adobe makes it really awkward to move collections between the two (https://lightroomsmart.com/help-my-lightroom-cloud-storage-is-full/).

Surely there must be a tool out there that manages or automates the procedure?

It seems that every other (or not every) earnings call will be splashed, soaked, and dripping with calls to integrate "AI". A-i this, a-i that. You might make a mistake and get a certificate in #adobe illustrator thinking it will boost your value to your employer, and you know what. You probably could get a raise if did that right about now.

When did that happen: If you edit a scanned #pdf in #adobe Acrobat. It will not only convert scanned text into actual text but will let you do so in a font that looks pretty much exactly like the typeface used in the original. Even glyphs that aren't on the page look perfect. This is totally amazing stuff!

If you can replace #Adobe tools in your workflow today, great, more power to you! Not everyone can, sadly.

Tools like @inkscape, @Krita and @Blender are fantastic and built with love and energy and care. But in many cases they are still not an option for a lot of creative types.

So support them if you can. Use them if they work for you. Help improve them if you have the skills (that includes writing documentation, and working on better UI/UX!).

The better they get, the weaker Adobe becomes! 👀

This is your irregular reminder #Adobe are fucking dicks:

We need #FLOSS tools to get to the point where they can replace Adobe tools. Open alternatives are great, but they are sadly not there yet to replace Adobe tools for professionals.

And won't be unless projects like @inkscape get enough funding to develop to a point of being viable alternatives.

Yes, it is in no small part about the money.

#Adobe software installations, licensing system, and cloud management on Windows is so intrusive, bloated, and unstable. Grrrr!

I really only need #Acrobat Pro, but it brings along #CreativeCloud (CC), which seems to require updates every week or two.

Last year, I tried to remove CC, but doing so eventually messed up my Acrobat install to the point that my license was no longer recognized and I had to erase everything and start over.

No, I won't, but thanks. Other PDF readers have been available for *years*.

Secrets of the past

Montezuma's Castle is a Pre Columbian cliff dwelling. Built of limestone and clay, 5 stories tall with 20 rooms located about 90 feet up the sheer cliff wall. The dwelling gives a unique glimpse into the life of it's inhabitants, the Sinagua people.

車内のディスプレイ広告に #Adobe#Photoshop の CM が流れたんだけど「あなたも Photoshop で白黒写真を(AI)でカラーにできる!」みたいな CM で、いや、たしかにそうかもしれないけど、その用途なら年間数万払わなくてもそういうサービスが他にもあるし、そもそも Photoshop だとそれ以外の玄人向けの機能が多すぎて逆にそういうライトな用途で使いたい人にとっては使いづらくて too much なのに、結局ユーザーのニーズにマッチするかどうかよりもとりあえずあんまりよくわからないライトな層にも今のうちにネームバリューを使って根こそぎサブスクに加入させちゃえばこっちのモン!みたいな、情報弱者を狙ったビジネスと似たものを感じてウゲーとなってしまった…(めんどくさいやつという自覚はある :tony_normal:

Snapped this photo of a rabbit in my back yard yesterday in the rain. Enjoying an evening snack. Tried out the new #Adobe #Lightroom denoise function - its nuts! Took this at ISO 5000 at 600m. #Photography #Wildlife #SonyAlpha #PNW

A photo of a rabbit visible in the center of the frame, the rabbit is facing the camera and looking in the general direction. The rain has made its fur wet, and it's sitting in deep green grass foraging. In the background are some rocks and a fence both blurred out.

@marcedwards And on every update I need to remove the #CreativeCloud link from the finder sidebar…again

The ship sailed a long time ago and we will never get a new usable UI and performant #Adobe apps

Adobe has a new AI trick up its sleeve: getting rid of photo noise in Lightroom. I've tried the new denoise feature, and it works. With bad noise in high ISO images, it can be remarkably useful, but be judicious to avoid making skin look plasticky. Adobe trained this AI with millions of photo pairs, the same shots with and without noise, to figure out how to remove noise best.

The new version of Lightroom Classic has an AI denoise that is quite impressive!

Only works on RAW files and creates a new DNG though.
