| 179729 | 2003-10-01 23:26:00 | We sometimes receive photos..whatever, and when we try to open the attachement, XP ..Outlook Express...comes up with a screen telling us we haven't got the correct programme to open the file. Which programme?? Thanks in advance. M and PJ :-) |

| 179731 | 2003-10-01 23:37:00 | I assume you mean the attachment has the file suffix of .PSF ? Its not one that you would normally come across, are you sure its not .PDF? Thats Adobe Reader / Adobe Acrobat Portable Document format. Adobe Reader is free to download, also its usually on magazine cover CDs. If it is PSF, post back here, or look for the answer on: http://filext.com/ |

| 179732 | 2003-10-01 23:44:00 | godgather....yes, have rechecked. It is "PSF", coming from friend who recently bought XP. Will check out what is being suggested. Thanks. |

| 179733 | 2003-10-02 00:07:00 | Gordon...went into the second site you gave ...it was suggested there to change the file to *.jpg.....HOW???. When we click the attachement, and see the file...we can't change it from psf to jpg. Tried doing the "save" thing....no good. | Maryann (2010) | ||
| 179734 | 2003-10-02 00:08:00 | Its a PhotoStudio File from ArcSoft. It's probably multilayered but try changing the extension to jpg | jockT (3500) | ||
| 179735 | 2003-10-02 00:09:00 | PSF stands for Palette Storage Format. It is a format only used by PhotoStudio 2000 as far as I know. Ive read that you can simply change the file extension to .jpg and then you can open them but Im not sure if this will actually work, might be worth a crack though. If you dont know how to do this simply save the file from outlook and then rename it to "photo.jpg". If you can't see the extension in windows explorer click on tools, folder options, view and uncheck hide file extensions for known file types. Hope this helps. B. |

| 179736 | 2003-10-02 00:18:00 | I have now engaged brain, if you want you can send it to me and Ishould be able to change it with PhotoStudio. I'm at j.tod@xtra.co.nz | jockT (3500) | ||
| 179737 | 2003-10-02 00:18:00 | The best questions always appear when I am trying have my breakfast......... Lets see, if I was doing it, save the file somewhere, eg, desktop would do, right click the file and Rename removing the psf extension and replacing it with jpg. Having a read through some of those answers on the 2nd link, some people seem to have got it, some don't, many seem to be using Photoshop as well, don't know if that has a bearing on it. If the above renaming suggestion fails, try this instead, save it as suggested, right click > properties and make sure it is not read only, if so change it to "Archive" and try renaming it then though not sure if that is the fault. Next option is to ask your friend to send the images as jpg's rather than the psf format since you don't have software for that extension. All else fails, send me a image to duckyduck at emailpinoy.com and I will try it myself for you. |

| 179738 | 2003-10-02 00:57:00 | Gordon...Hope you've finished breakfast by now. We've managed to save attachment to documents....changed its name, but still can't open it. ?:| Need a coffee....and yes...computer lessons!! O.K O.K Will ask my pal to send it jpg, but also want to understand this psf part. PJ will try with PhotoStudio....he thinks we have it tucked away in XP somewhere. Thanks alot everyone. |
