PSD files in FCP 5.0

Jay Voog · August 19th, 2005, 02:22 PM

I've come to the understanding that the only way I will know about this is either...

1. find someone else with the same setup as myself (FCP 5.0 with no photoshop) and ask them. It seems everyone has photoshop or some sort of photoshop software for dealing with PSD files on their Mac.

2. purchase photoshop/Photo Elements and install and see what happens then.

when I am able to do either of these I will let you know. thanks for your time.

Jay, try this:

Download "file wrench" which is a free utility:

Drag your a photoshop file into the program's file list.

click the "Adjust Mac Creator" box and change the code to MACS

Process the change.

That's the code for Photoshop Elements. Now see if that makes any difference inside FCP...
