Topic: WTF, Photoshop? Stay out of my fucking business...

Anonymous A started this discussion 15 years ago #2,893

I go to open a high res pic of a $50 and... it says it doesn't "support the loading of banknote images". What a load of BS, it supports it, they just decided to specifically ban it (somehow).

Anyone else have this problem?

Wow... I had no idea they did that.
Pretty amusing really.

Where did you get the image? What version of PS? Part of my undergrad thesis proof-of-concept related to imagery of US currency, and the images could load in CS2 and CS3.

Do these load in PS?

The detection should be based on a five-point, algebraic pattern in the image. I believe the error message used to say “does not support printing” rather than “opening.”

@OP
You didn't know that technology existed? Some scanners won't even let you scan it.

Go look up O'Reilly's Digital Media blog. There are multiple work a round's.

Color copiers that refuse to copy - really easy way - not worth much because any clerk in a store has the "Pen"

Copier will not copy the so many added gimmicks they keep adding.

> You didn't know that technology existed?
I knew it existed. Why is my own software working against me, though? This won't stop serious counterfeiters, just people messing around in PS. Crazy, IMO.
> Some scanners won't even let you scan it.
Huh, weird.

The LAME is killing me. -.-
Any store that accepts shooped or copied currency deserves to get in trouble.
/Which doesn't mean that I try to pay with fakes when I come across them, lol.

You should've sold it with 4% profit.
