When putting together several large images using PSCS Photomerge, I get an error message that indicates that the scratch disks are full. I have one designated scratch disk (I:)set up in PS preferences with 10GB of free space. This drive is not used for anything else. No other files are written to it. I have 1GB of RAM. No other applications (other than Norton AntiVirus) were running.
The images I was trying to combine were 12MPixel JPGs that show up in PS as 36MB files. There were five of them. Any way I figure it, PS shouldn’t need more than 2GB of scratch space to assemple the merged photo.
I resized the five files to 1/4 their original size and Photomerge did a great job with them.
Anyone have a similar problem? Is there a maximum limit on image sizes used with Photomerge? Would increasing the size of the scratch disk help (I will be replacing the second hard drive with a much larger one soon)?
