Please friends, my boss wants me to do in Photoshop...

[Gast]

Please Photoshop experts, help me out with this problem:

*) We need Adobe Photoshop for a print quality analysis:
Adobe Photohop features a histrogram function: But how do I get the values of this histogram function into a text data file? I write down the values manually, but this costs a LOT of time, since we have to do many measurements....

Please I beg you, help me out, show me some alternative software or give me the missing hint.... :-)

Greetings and very thanks for your help!

Well exactly I need the following values (I select an image area --> then I choose "histogram"):

*) standard deviation
*) average value
*) centralworth

I don't know if this is translated correctly, but all these values are returned by the "histogram" function --> Now I need to store them in a text file!

Thanks for your help in advance....

Hi BW,

very short answer: AFAIK, Photoshop up to and including version 7 doesn't support automated output or even any form of output interface such as .txt output. You might want to consider a dedicated image analysis program for that job.

Do you know such a program? Would be very interesting.

Had one at work, but I can't remember the name. I'll try to get the name, though.

Hallo Leute,
zuerst mal danke für die Hilfe, ich war vorher nur Gast (war in der Arbeit) und außerdem hab ich auf Englisch geschrieben (war ein Kollege nebenbei).... :-)

1) Ich hab was gefunden zwischenzeitlich das Tool heißt "ImageJ", ist in Java geschrieben und kann in Textdateien exportieren!
Aber leider nur den Luminanz-Kanal!!!!!

2) Ich bräuchte was automatisches, am Besten wär eine DLL für VC++ oder irgend ein Photoshop-Plugin mit den besagten Features.
Die DLL müsste halt Histogramm-Funktionen zur Verfügung stellen, wir haben da was in VC++ laufen, müsste man nur noch einbinden...

Die beste Lösung wär Nummer2, weiß nicht - wisst ihr eine Lösung?

Danke für die Hilfe und sorry für unreg... :-)

Grüße

BW
