Photoshop CS3: Amiga IFF plugin

Dastardly · 03 January 2010, 17:27

Anyone know where I can get a plugin for Photoshop CS3 so it will open Amiga IFF files? I've had a search myself but not having much luck so far.

Cheers.

not sure,

but ACDSee can view iff, i just open them using it and do a print screen!

The plugin from CS & CS2 should work fine.

If you have those you'll find it somewhere on the install cd.

While we're on this thread, anyway of getting either photoshop or ACDC to display HAM6/8 without choking? It would be nice to offload batch-converting a bunch of pics I have to 24-bit onto my laptop, so I can still play WHDLoad stuff without killing ad-pro. (I'd leave my computer on all night for that, but I'm already doing that to convert audio tapes recorded via perfectsound to mp3 via LAME)

It's true, and you can also save them as tiff or jpeg or other formats.

XnView can, I think http://www.xnview.com/ It's free, so give it a whirl

Paintshop pro supports iff ;-)

Thats pretty cool that a program like that would support an Amiga file format

I had issues saving out iffs with PS8 so had to return to PS7, but I have no idea if it's still an issue.

It (PS8) would open them fine.

Converting TO iff is a completely other matter. If someone knows a proper converter (from some indexed color format to iff or RGB to ham iff), let me know

The Photoshop one "kinda" "works" but it's not for any serious use.

Wow! That even works on Win3.11 WFW via PC-Task (if that isn't completely pointless, multiview is faster.. LOL)

I went on to Google for a plugin to open iff files in Photoshop and then realised that Photoshop CS5 default install openes iff just fine

Indeed - but that Iff I tried didn't show right (just like on CS2 with the plugin which I do have too); IrfanView did show it like it should. But that's just one pic (by Valleyo, '94)
