Re: [Gimp-user] Embedded thumbnails?
I was just choosing a JPG to open in the gimp Open Image dialog and when I clicked on the image to open, I think the preview thumbnail was of the same image in an uncropped and unprocessed form. Does gimp use some type of embedded thumbnail as a preview image? It uses the Exif thumbnail, if available.

Do you see Python in the Filters menu item? It should be right above Script-Fu . If you don't then your Gimp does not support Python.

[Gimp-user] Question about bump map location
First, let me say how much I have appreciated the help I've gotten throughout the years from this list! I'm a 70 year old woman living in Belize, my husband and I do websites (he's the programmer), I love the graphic aspect, though he's good at that, too. We have been open-source users and supporters for over 10 years, sponsored Software Freedom Day in Belize in 2006 and 2007. We use Ubuntu, GIMP, and Inkscape applications, he uses all kinds of programming languages, of course. Kudos to everyone contributing to this list and the open source movement. My question: I would like to put a watermark of my logo on images, and I can do so with the Map, Bump Map Filter. However, the location of the bump map is a problem. At 0 on the X and Y Offset sliders, it goes into the upper left hand corner. OK. The problem is the sliders only move to -1000, and my images are often larger than that, and I want to put the bump map into the lower right hand corner, and the sliders will not allow that. Typing in the numbers doesn't work, and moving the bump map in the preview with the middle mouse button doesn't work. Of course if I make the images smaller I can get it into the right hand lower corner, but I want to use the larger image. Any solution for this, or do I have to just live with this ... defect(?) for now. Thank you!

Yes, that works in general on OS X. and I'd assume that there is a checkbox somwhere in the UI. There's a dialog in Finder for this if one right-clicks on that file and selects 'Information'. However, one can only grant or revoke read and write permissions there, no execution permissions. That's different to Linux and Windows file managers.

Judy Wilson Judy, Thanks for all your efforts to support The Movement. :-) I can't answer the question you are asking, however, I use a perl script that invokes ImageMagick to add watermarks to large quantities of images. http://www.imagemagick.org Since I do put my watermark in the upper left corner, I have not paid attention to whether ImageMagick can apply the watermark based on the position from the lower right corner, but I would guess that it can. And if the answer to that is no, there is another trick you could try, especially if you are using a script to batch process. First, make your watermark image upside down and backwards. Then rotate each image 180 degrees, apply the watermark, flatten the image, and rotate it back to upright. Last note: When I batch process to apply watermarks, I always only apply to _copies_ of the images as invariably I later need the original without watermark for some other use. (This also prevents destroying the original if your batch script does not do as expected.)

As I was starting it from an icon on the desktop, I know from past experience that errors often get swallowed when an app is started in this manner. So I started it from a shell window and saw the related errors. so... Try starting the gimp from a shell window instead of the normal app launch method. Are there any errors?

[Gimp-user] Prit to PDF doesn't save custom size?
I am trying to create a PDF/X-1a that is exactly the size (dimensions) of the .xcf file (15x12in.). There are two ways to do this that I have found at this point. Export does save the correct size, but I can't find a way to change to the x-1a format, or print to PDF which does save the correct format but doesn't save the correct size. When printing to PDF I go into PreferencesAdobe PDF Settings and change the Default Settings to PDF/X-1a and change the Adobe PDF Page Size to 15x12 (custom created page size). When it prints the PDF ends up as an 8 1/2 X 11 file. Two notes: 1. When I go to Page Setup in Gimp I cannot set a custom page size 2. The only reason I need the X-1a format is because when I export to a standard PDF the ink density for the black goes above the 240% limit that I need for the printers. If I could find a way to get the ink density results I need without saving in the X-1a format it would be just as good.
