I agree. ImageReady isn't a Photoshop replacement, but I do use it for all batch processing with droplets and it works great. It has a lower over head than PS so running batches doesn't take up all your resources. Although I've never tried to use cfexecute to run droplets live on a server. Sounds like a good experiment.

RE: CF and PhotoShop
Adobe Photoshop has an excellent scripting extension you can download from their Web site, and I have used it via Windows Scripting Host to resize images, apply actions to images, and generally do all things Photoshop. The scripting extension comes with a (fairly) complete DOM that actually gives you a lot of insight into how particular filters were produced. You can use javascript or VBA to automate the production of images, and provide numerous examples of how to script the application. That being said, the one time I tried scripting the application via Coldfusion was catastrophic, and I do not believe this was due to a lack of skill on my part. I was trying to take all the files in a directory and resize them by a certain percentage (this is a simple task). Coldfusion 5 ran out of memory, started throwing Pcode errors, and restarted frequently. I called Abode for support and they were horrified by what I was trying to do, saying the product was not intended for this use (they don't seem to like programmers over there). Eventually, the server itself would lock up almost immediately after calling the object - so if you were thinking about this for a production environment you may want to think of demoting it to a secondary server and plan on having it go out of commission often. Or, put it on a desktop machine and run it via a scheduled task or cron job (which is what I do these days).

Yup - you nailed all the reasons below why I use image ready for batch. Although I have found batch processing in Macromedia MX to be just as fast and robust.

Don't know if it was answered - but that I know of droplet is an Adobe Image Ready term - same as macro or I think Macr MX is called a sriptlet etc etc. jay miller P.S.

More then likely he's trying to generate images on the fly... The only way I could even imagine achieving this would be to see what type (if any) of COM connections Photoshop has. I use Photoshop extensively, but have never really tried to integrate the two. The best thing you can do is to download the OLEView application: http://www.microsoft.com/com/resources/OVI386.EXE and install it on the machine that had Photoshop, then see if Photoshop has COM connections available.. (Not even sure it does, or that it will allow you to do anything useful..)
