Wine, Photoshop & "save for web"

by Pascal Opitz

published 5 February 2007

Tom did find out about this one for me:
The trick is to execute Photoshop with quotes around the path and backslashes in it.

Via winehq

Save for Web works with:
wine "c:\program files\adobe\Photoshop 7.0\Photoshop.exe"

Save for Web WILL NOT work with:
wine "c:/program files/adobe/Photoshop 7.0/Photoshop.exe"

  1. THANK YOU!

    Apparently most of the people using Photoshop on Linux do not use the Save For Web feature. I couldn’t find mention of this problem anywhere. Everything else works so I wonder what the deal is?

    Without this plugin, I pretty much have no use for Photoshop. The GIMP does everything else (for the most part).

  2. Thanks a ton, Tom ;)

    Now I can finally use CS2 (which has the same issue) on my linux box!
