Webp Photoshop Cc Plugin For Mac

Автор:

WebPShop, the plug-in for opening and saving WebP images directly from AdobePhotoshop, is now available on GitHub under an Apache 2.0 license.

How to Open Webp File in Photoshop. Do you want to know how to open Webp file in Photoshop, then you should try the free webp plugin for Photoshop on your Windows and Mac computer. Plug-ins give Photoshop support for Google's WebP image format. Web developers and graphic artists who want to try the data-saving graphics format now have two choices of open-source plug-ins for.

Windows installation steps

  1. Download the plug-in (by example from GitHub), Blackmart apk download 2019.

  2. Copy the plug-in file WebPShop.8bi located in binWebPShop_0_2_1_Win_x64 to the Photoshop installation folder, usually C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe PhotoshopPlug-ins for x64.

  3. Restart Photoshop. 'Open' and 'Save' menu commands should now show WebP files.

Mac installation steps

  1. Download the plug-in (by example from GitHub),

  2. Copy the plug-in WebPShop.plugin located in bin/WebPShop_0_2_1_Mac_x64 to the Photoshop installation folder, usually Applications/Adobe Photoshop/Plug-ins.

  3. Restart Photoshop. 'Open' and 'Save' menu commands should now show WebP files.

Encoding options

Compression settings can be adjusted during the 'Save' command.

  • The quality goes from lossy 0 (the image is degraded to fit in fewer bytes) to lossless 100 (pixels stay exactly the same). Usually the compressed size increases with quality but for some images (e.g. screen captures, plain colors..), the lossless algorithm produce lighter files.

  • The compression effort controls the encoding speed. Slower increases the visual quality and/or decreases the file size.

  • The preview feature will show the compressed image and its final size. If the picture is too tall or too wide, a moveable zoomed-in area will appear. Warning: for big images and/or heavy compression effort, thegraphical user interface may be slow/unresponsive when this is enabled.

  • For animations (several layers containing a duration in their name e.g. 'Frame1 (123 ms)'), a slider will select the current frame, showing its preview and duration.

Common parameters

For photography, quality around 70 is a good start. If size is moreimportant (e.g. icons, heavy-traffic web photos..), going as low as 30 is notuncommon.

For artificial images (e.g. B&W text, low-effect 3D renderings..), qualityof at least 98 might be better-looking and smaller.

If these options are not enough to get a satisfying result, the command linetools offer more settings than this Photoshop plug-in.

For more information, see the README file. Currently implemented andmissing features are described there. For participation in the project pleasesee the CONTRIBUTING file.

Current plug-in version: WebPShop 0.2.1

WebPShop is a Photoshop module for opening and saving WebP images, includinganimations.

The 'Rebuild the Search Index from within Outlook' always resulted in error messages saying that I didn't have sufficient priviledges for the folders (or something of the sort). Thanks for the tip 'Find and Delete Index files to Rebuild the Index': this worked great for me! Open File, Options, Search. Mac . I have Outlook 2016 running on Windows 10.

Installation

Current library version: WebP 1.0.2

Put the file from the bin folder in the Photoshop plug-in directory(C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe PhotoshopPlug-insWebPShop.8bi for Windows x64,Applications/Adobe Photoshop/Plug-ins/WebPShop.plugin for Mac). Run Photoshop.That's it!

Build

Use Microsoft Visual Studio (2017 and above) for Windows and XCode for Mac.

  • Download the latest Adobe Photoshop Plug-In and Connection SDK athttps://console.adobe.io/downloads/ps,
  • Download the latest WebP binaries athttps://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/precompiled or build them,
  • Put the contents of this repository in a 'webpshop' folder located atadobe_photoshop_sdk_[version]/pluginsdk/samplecode/format,
  • Add path/to/webp/includes and path/to/webp/includes/src as AdditionalInclude Directories to the WebPShop project [1],
  • Add webp, webpdemux, webpmux libraries as Additional Dependencies to theWebPShop project [1],
  • Build it with the same architecture as your Photoshop installation(x86 or x64 for Windows, x64 for Mac),
  • Build it with the same architecture and config as the WebP library binaries(x86 or x64 for Windows, x64 for Mac, Debug/Release),
  • By example for Windows, it should output the plug-in file WebPShop.8bi inadobe_photoshop_sdk_[version]/pluginsdk/samplecode/Output/Win/Debug[64]/.

[1] By default the XCode project includes and links to thelibwebp-[version]-mac-[version] folder in the webpshop directory. The VSproject expects libwebp-[version]-windows-x64 (and/or -x86).

Features

  • Open, Open As menu commands can be used to read .webp files.
  • Save, Save As menu commands can be used to write .webp files. Encodingparameters can be tuned through the UI.

Encoding settings

For information, the quality slider maps the following ranges to their internalWebP counterparts (see SetWebPConfig() in WebPShopEncodeUtils.cpp):

The radio buttons offer several levels of compression effort:

Limitations

  • Only English is currently supported.
  • Only 'RGB Color' image mode is currently supported.
  • The Timeline data is not used; thus animations rely on layers for definingframes (set duration as '(123 ms)' in each layer's name), and they need tobe rasterized before saving.
  • On some images, lossless compression might produce smaller file sizes thanlossy. That's why the quality slider is not linear. The same problem existswith the radio buttons controlling the compression effort.
  • This plug-in does not extend Export As neither Save for Web.
  • Encoding and decoding are done in a single pass. It is not currentlypossible to cancel such actions, and it might take some time on big images.

Software architecture

The common folder contains the following:

  • WebPShop.h is the main header, containing most functions.
  • WebPShop.cpp contains the plug-in entry point (called by host).
  • WebPShop.r and WebPShopTerminology.h represent the plug-in properties.
  • Functions in WebPShopSelector* are called in WebPShop.cpp.
  • WebPShop*Utils.cpp are helper functions.
  • WebPShopScripting.cpp is mostly used for automation.
  • WebPShopUI* display the encoding parameters window and the About box.

The win folder contains a Visual Studio solution and project, alongside withWebPShop.rc which is the encoding parameters window layout and About box.

The mac folder contains an XCode project. WebPShopUIDialog_mac.h and .mmdescribe the UI layout, while WebPShopUI_mac.mm handles the window events.
