Hi, just getting to grips with imageJ and highly impressed.
But I have a simple question, which despite spending a great of deal of time searching the ImageJ web site and Googling the Internet in general I have been unable to find an answer. So I'm hoping someone out there might know the answer and take the time and trouble to reply. Question. I find when I'm saving files as tif files/ JPEG etc ImageJ doesn't seem to generate the file extension required for image type recognition by other PC based programmes. All is fine if I manually type the file extension, but as I'm currently crunching 100's of image files it becomes very time consuming to do this. Now I know PC are not as clever as Mac's in this respect but if anyone knows how to get ImageJ to add a file extension when saving pictures on a PC I'd be very grateful. The problem only occurs when I'm saving images as a different name or format to the original image. If I open a tif file with a tif extension and simply save the file..... extension remains and no problem. However, the problem occurs whenever I rename and save as tif or change file type from TIF to JPEG. Version is Imagej 1.40g Cheers and cyber pints in abundance to anyone who can solve this problem for me. Nigel |
Dear Nigel,
Here is a simple and step-by-step solution: 1- open your images through File/Import/Image Sequence 2- you will see a movie of your images 3- save your images in either different formats or different names through File/Save as/ Image Sequence 4- now you will be asked to choose: a) Format (choose: tiff, jpeg, bmp, etc); b) Name: you will be given a default name, but you can change to any name you want. c) start at: (default:0). you can use same starting number as your original images. if you have to open your image sequences in different parts, due to the memory shortage, this will be helpful for you to use different number. d) digits (1-8); again choose like your original image sequence. 5- the only drawback is that you will have to save the images at the same folder. Sort your file base on types/names and move somewhere else. Hope this is helpful for you. if you need further help, do not hesitate to contact me.
