Hi,
I’m having issues opening JPEG files with a large pixel size. I’m using Photoshop CS3 Extended under Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3, I have 4GB RAM (So just over 3GB effective in XP) and an AMD Athlon 6x X2 4200 Dual-CPU. My page file is set to 8GB! Photoshop is set to use up to 80% of my RAM
The issue relates to all large images I try to open, but the example I am going to use as an example regards a stitched panorama with pixel dimensions of 38,156 x 2,207. I know that is huge for most people.
When trying to open the image in Photoshop i get the following message:
"Could not complete your request because of a problem parsing the JPEG data"
I think the issue relates to the size of the image, but it opens fine in windows picture and fax viewer, and also in Paintshop Pro X2 (Though in PSP X2 i can only modify the first 24,000 pixels accross before it refuses to do anything else)
Why can’t photoshop open the images, i would reduce their size, but i need them for a room-sized display (Some 20 feet long) so i can’t reduce the image size without losing quality when they are printed. On the other hand i can’t print them until i correct some image/colour issues with photoshop. So any help will be appreciated
Cheers
Jacob
