I created a PSD in CS and when the printers open it with 7 to make adjustments the layers are not there. Is there any special way I need to save it to make it show up in 7 with layers?
Give your photos a professional finish with sharpening in Photoshop. Learn to enhance details, create contrast, and prepare your images for print, web, and social media.
And why AREN’T those layers showing up in 7? I thought we had pretty much complete backward compatibility (except for some rarities with version 6). Is this wrong?
So can anyone tell me if there is a way to convert it down bit wise so 7 can read it?
Photoshop 7 can read 16-bit files with no problem if you flatten them so there are no layers or save them with Maximize Compatibility on. Otherwise, just go to Image Mode in CS, select 16-bit from the menu and re-save (or save with Maximize Compatibility).
Reading a 16-bit image is not a problem, it’s just that 7 does not support layers in 16-bit mode. If you saved with Maximize Compatibility, Photoshop 7 will open your 16-bit files from CS, albeit without layers.
