I have received a group of photos with captions in PDF format. Is there
any way to extract this material as JPEG?
I have PSE 8, Adobe Bridge, Picassa and Graphic convertor 5.9.
TIA

Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:22:33 UT Manual film camera trumps digital in harsh environments?
I've used entry-level Olympus DSLRs in -20 weather for hours on end.
My D300 I used one night at -25C. The only problems were that the
batteries got cold and the LCD got slow, but with a warm battery,
everything functioned perfectly. But then Arctic or Antarctic weather
is a bit worse...There are still resonances of the Canon-Antarctic-

Hi all
justa started with a Sony A100 after years of using a compact. I will be
using the camera for taking pics of the lad playing fotball amongst other
things and wondered what would be the best lens for say the other side of a
footy pitch? the camera came with the standard 18/70 lens and a minolta
Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:18:21 UT On-line warranty purchases?
As I mentioned in another article, I often shoot in extreme conditiions and
have been very lucky not to have had any accidents or water/grime/etc
issues. However... I can't expect to go where I go in the conditions I go
out shooting in and expect that luck to continue. I have liked the Ritz
warranty in the past and know that Best Buy warrants against accidental
Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:13:07 UT Pentax... how are they now?
Hello,
I am considering moving to dslr from a 'bridge' style (Fuji S9000). I like
my Fuji a lot but it has finally developed the dreaded 'command dial' issue
(after waaaay more shots than most seem to have taken before it broke). I
shoot in some extreme conditions and am wondering how the Pentax will hold
Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:50:47 UT How to identify Ebay LOSERS who have no money
1. They are outside of North America. Very few people outside of
North American seem to have more than 2 dimes to rub together.
2. They ask lots of useless questions, some clearly answered in the
ad. Even with high rez pictures in the ad, they'll ask for more, so
they can masturbate to them.
3. They ask about shipping on items that 1, they won't win the bid
Sun, 14 Mar 2010 21:25:17 UT batch resize csr and irfan query
Hi folks.
I had a pc running WINDOWS 7. Photoshop CS3. Set up a batch resize to
1024*680 and had a file size around 120kb which I was happy to upload to
Flickr. Then I sold the pc and brought a laptop. Transferred CS3 to the
laptop and set up the same batch routine, but my file sizes now are aroundf

Sun, 14 Mar 2010 05:16:41 UT Adobe upgrades...
The system is all put together, ready for software. I was about to by
CS4 today, and get on with things. But questions arose:
CS5 is due out fairly soon, and it is supposed to be better set up for
64 bit systems. Which means I may very well want to upgrade.
So, the question: How well (or poorly) does Adobe software upgrade?
Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:48:14 UT Why are 5x7 digital prints so expensive?!?!?!
I recently bought an HD camcorder which also takes digital pix. (This
is my first time doing digital -- been shooting 35mm for 20+years.)
Where I get my film developed, a roll of 24 is $1 extra for 5x7s, vs
4x6. To get 24 5x7 prints in digital, however, would cost upwards of
TWENTY DOLLARS more!!!!! Any idea why? If this is just the way it
Sat, 13 Mar 2010 20:09:28 UT 5D battery questions
When I bought my 5D three years ago I got the original Canon BP-11A
battery with it and three Impact clones from B&H at $30 apiece. One of
the clones has never quite held much of a charge, the others are okay
but probably nearing the end of their useful lives.
The original Canon BP-11A is rated 1390 mAh. The Impact clones are

I just wonder why they didn't use one of those 60MP Hasselblads - would
have reduced shooting time to 1/3. Perhaps lack of a 600mm lens?
Sat, 13 Mar 2010 14:55:15 UT How important are lens hoods?
I'm trying to reduce the volume of camera related stuff that I haul around
with me when traveling. I use a Nikon D80 with three different lenses
(30mm f1.4, 18-135mm F3.5, and 70-300mm f4.5). Each lens has a different
hood to go with it.
My question is, just how important are lens hoods? Would I be likely to
