Activity Forums Adobe Photoshop PDF presentation in CS5

  • PDF presentation in CS5

    Hi there,

    I was just about to merge some PDF files in my shiney new CS5 verison of Photoshop when I discovered that it’s gone. No ‘Automate> PDF presentation’. A quick look online tells me to use Adobe Bridge, which I did, but I can only get very low res files, even when set to full or 300dpi and 100% quality.

    On the Adobe help site it very (un)helpfully points you to this page: https://kb2.adobe.com/cps/828/cpsid_82824.html where it says there is a link to a ‘PDF presentation’ plug in for CS5. Can’t see it. Well done Adobe.

    Anyone know how to get better results out of Bridge? Or how to make multi-page PDF’s without having to go to another application? Or where this mysterious plug in is that they speak of?

    It seems ridilculous that they’ve reomved a perfectly good function once again…

    Bridge actually is fine… but you do need to go into the Output Module and set your resolution there. Make sure to pick the right Paper size and set the resolution you want.

    Thanks. I gave it another go, using jpgs from Photoshop instead of the original PDFs and that seems to work fine. Must be a problem with the orignal PDFs.

    Still a shame Photoshop doesn’t do this anymore.
