  • Saving for Web & Devices Spacing Error

    I'm currently saving this photoshop page for Web & Devices to import into Dreamweaver and I'm running into this error.  See images below:
    Here's how my website is supposed to look and how I designed it:
    and when I preview in browser and zoom in or out (in this case out), this happens:
    Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what I might be able to do to prevent this from happening?  Quite irritating!
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply.  Yes, my Photoshop CS5 is updated to 12.1.  I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and have tried viewing in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome with no improved success.
    I have been reading these forums for about 3 hours trying to find the answer to this question but am still at a loss.  I have found one article here: 
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7974006/overlapping-image-in-photoshop-splice-how-to-fl oat-with-css
    which explains using an "absolute" value in CSS to lock images in place.  I'm currently working in Dreamweaver to see if it's a common error in Photoshop when resizing browser but is easily fixed on the CSS side.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks!

  • Error - When saving for web & devices

    HELP, when I go to save a file for Web & Devices I am getting an error message It just started happening and it happens every time. Here is the message:
    "Image exceeds the size Save for Web was designed for. You may experience out of memory errors and slow performance. Are you sure you want to continue?"
    It doesn't matter how big/small the file size is. If I drag the file into Photoshop and try from there it works perfectly.

  • Saving for web device

    Each time I choose a file to save for web, I get an error message like: can't find file (it's staring at me from the screen), cannot complete operation or some such.  I've used this method for resizing for web since I got my copy of CS4, but it's quit working.  What will fix it?  reinstall the program?

    jaaay,
    I agree with Doug.
    You may Save As or Print to PDF. If you Save As, you should untick Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities, to reduce file size and avoid passing on unecessary information. Depending on the contents, you may consider the resolution requirements for raster effects/parts. Printing to PDF generally leads to smaller file sizes.
    Depending on the printer (maybe in more than one sense), you may create the artwork in CMYK Document Color Mode, or RGB. The former is the right choice for printing presses/PostScript printers, the latter for non PostScript printers (where CMYK colours will be converted twice, back and forth).

  • Save For Web & Devices GIF Preset options

    In PS CS3, when saving for Web & Devices as a GIF, there's the default Preset of "[Unnamed]" with various drop down options such as GIF 128 Dithered, GIF 128 No Dither, 64, 32, GIF Restrictive, etc. I'm looking for the highest quality GIF. What should I use? Thank you.

    Thanks for the feedback. I am using the images on a website that are somewhat larger than thumbnail size so it's not real critical. I know that generally GIFs are preferable for logos and text and JPGs for photo like images. These are a mix of art images and text. I don't know much about PNG though I notice in the GIF Save for Web & Devices drop down there are also options for PNG-24 and PNG-8 128 Dithered.
    Bottom line, I'd like to know which is the best quality GIF save option of these and then I can decide between that and a JPG.

  • Save for Web & Devices is changing resolution from 72ppi to 300ppi

    Hi,
    I'm writing an action to do the following.
    Image size - change resolution from 300ppi to 72ppi
    Automate - Fit Image - 600px x 600px
    Save for web and devices - JPEG medium.
    If I save at any stage (up to save for web & devices) the image is 72ppi
    However when I open it again after saving for web & devices and check image size it's 300ppi HOW?
    Am I missing something really stupid?
    Peter

    Hi Charles,
    Sometimes we have to go through meaningless steps...
    The spec for the job is to "automate" a process whereby we end up with a web suitable 600px JPEG of about 50k with © watermark.
    Of course they are expecting a 72ppi image, so its easier if thats what they get!!!
    The other requirement involves the fact that the web end of the business want to change the filename, so in order to keep a link, I write the filename to IPTC Title Field (using Peter Krogh's script)
    However I've now found that if I "save for web & devices" with copyright & contact info, I get IPTC title and 72ppi,
    So happy days....
    Many thanks, but now just more curious to know exactly whats happening!

  • Save for Web & Devices Box Greyed Out

    Hey everyone,
    I'm trying to save a Photoshop CS4 file for Web & Devices so I can have Photoshop compile the slices and the CSS so I can hand-design rollovers. Unfortunately, all of a sudden the dialogue box for Save For Web & Devices is greyed out... I've check online, changed color profiles, deleted save for web and devices library files, updated Photoshop, nothing. I've even checked past .psds I've designed that I've saved for Web & Devices and haven't changed since--even the Web & Devices box is greyed out for them. Help! What do I do? I need to do this before Friday. Thank you!
    WebsiteInDistress

    Hi
    I'm also having the same problem with the Save for Web & Devices Box Greyed Out.
    I think it's the plugin that's corrupt,  as I've tried deleting preferences and seetings. I can't find the photoshop cd to  reinstall it.
    Has anyone got the MAC CS4 Photoshop "save for web  plugin" (Users/[Username]/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Plugins/Adobe Save for Web CS4/Photoshop/Adobe Save for Web CS4 Prefs) that they could send me.
    Thanks very much

  • Photoshop crashes when saving for web and devices

    When hitting saving for web and devices, Photoshop starts to render images but before it's done, it crashes. I get an error-popup with no text and the screen where normally the animation is shown is red. Then Windows comes with a crash report and I can only quit Photoshop.

  • Save for Web & Devices, The operation could not be completed

    I keep getting this error when I Save for Web & Devices: The operation could not be completed.
    I have saved for the web before for many more complex, larger images without a hitch.
    I am using a psd format with an image that I designed. It is no more complex than others I have done. It is small, just a horizontal navbar about the size of the one on Apple's website.
    I tried exporting it, flattening it, slicing it removing the slices.
    I think it is a problem with the application itself.
    I have tried repairing my permissions, restarting, and holding Cmd, Opt, Control, Shift during PS startup to reset the settings. Any insight would be appreciated.

  • Save For Web & Devices Not Responding

    Hi there, I am quite new to Photoshop so please be gentle
    I have created a multi layer image that is at 8bits per channel and when I go to Save For Web & Devices it brings up the display showing me the optimized version ... I then click on SAVE and it brings up the save dialog but everything is grayed out and I can not click on anything. I can click on CANCEL on the previous window and this hides the Save Dialog (but doesn't actually close it)
    Please help on this as it has totally confused me

    I have been able to SFW a few times but only on new images. The one I am trying to save was copied over from a PC (in fact any file that was previously on a Windows PC)
    I have trashed the prefs and it is still the same. I have even re-installed again to no effect. Thanks for the continued help on this

  • Save for Web & Devices 2-up view not appearing side by side

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue. In Photoshop CS4, when I used to go  to the Save for Web & Devices screen, I liked using the 2-up view so I could see the difference between my original and the optimized versions. However, I've tried doing this in CS4 now and I remember seeing (in CS3 I believe) where the layout of the 2-up view was side by side (vertically) so you could have the original on the left and the optimized on the right. Now, in CS4, at least on my machine (mac OSX tiger), the 2-up view only displays the original and optimized horizontally (with the original on top and the optimized below). Is this a fixed layout for the 2-up view or can this be changed? Is this normal is something corrupted? I've looked everywhere for a button or setting to click (that I could think of) and have not been able to find a place where the layout setting can be changed. I know it's a very small issue for most people, but I really preferred viewing the two versions side by side vertically instead of one on top of the other. I'm assuming that this is just a setting somewhere that the user could change but I don't know - perhaps this interface update is new to CS4 and is not customizable?
    Anyone have any information or solutions to this?

    Thanks so much...that was so easy, but I don't think I would ever have found it!
    It works now, I just resized the window and it's now side by side...funny how this was not described in the help file when I looked it up!
    Thanks again.

  • Save for web & devices not working (CS4)

    I noticed today that I can't save for web & devices any more. when I try it shuts down the program and gives me the following message to send a crash report:
    Adobe has detected that the application Adobe Illustrator CS4 has unexpectedly quit.
    this started as a Photoshop CS4 problem where I also can't save for web & devices any more. before people jump down my throat again for mentioning this Photoshop problem on the Illustrator forum - this is for context only. I have the same problem in both applications. I just include this information here in case it helps. the Photoshop message I get is:
    The operation can not be completed.
    savign for web & devices worked totally fine up till last night in Photoshop. haven't saved anything out of Illustrator for web & devices in a while but it used to work just fine.
    I have a PC and use Windows 7. All my Adobe products are up-to-date.
    Any help is much appreciated. Thx a lot!

    thank you very much. at least it happened before. I was seriously doubting myself. tried trashing preference files multiple times, but that didn't help. will reinstall everything and see if that does the trick.
    thanks again!

    PSD layouts saved for web and devices show up as broken links in dreamweaver. Previews in browsers are fine, but I keep getting and error message that says the files have been blocked. What is the fix for this?

    You can also try out Project Parfait. It's a new experiment from Adobe that’s currently online and free to try out and use.
