Photoshop - Saving anything other than psd and psb files

Pipeline Integrations

I’m trying to find a way to save and publish out .png and .tiff’s from Photoshop but it doesnt want to take it (the list appears but it the defaults back to .psd when saving).

I managed to get .psb (Photoshop Large File Format) saving.

My Yaml:

photoshop_extension:
    type: str
    choices:
        psd: Photoshop PSD (.psd)
        psb: Photoshop Large File Format (.psb)
        jpeg: JPEG (.jpeg)
        tiff: TIFF (.tiff)
        png: PNG (.png)
    default: psd
    alias: extension

I can reproduce what you’re seeing, I’ll try and dig in tomorrow and understand why it’s doing this.

Thanks

Hi Ricardo

I’ve been looking into it, and it seems that our adobe.save_as(doc, file_path) will save it as either a psd or psb, but does not account for any other file types.

However I think you could modify the scene operations hook to check the file extension type and perform a different save option if it’s not psd or psb:

Here is an example of how to save a jpg:

And here is the Adobe reference docs as a guide:

It looks like you just need to get the correct options and then pass them to the save method, something like (not tested):

elif operation == "save_as":
    doc = self._get_active_document()
    if os.path.splitext(file_path)[-1] == ".png":
        png_options = adobe.PNGSaveOptions
        doc.saveAs(adobe.File(file_path), png_options )
    else:
        adobe.save_as(doc, file_path)
