Trouble printing LARGE format images from Photoshop CC to Acrobat XI
Hi All, I had no issues printing a 1mtrx1mtr @ 300dpi image to Acrobat, now that I am trying a 2mtrx1mtr @ 300dpi it is not doing anything.
I get the initial Acrobat printer popup, tell it to print, photoshop CC says I may be printing something outside the print area (It's ok, it is the exact same size, I setup everything in the Acrobat settings), I click ok, then nothing, no matter how long I wait.
When I did the smaller one, a dialogue window appeard with a status of the print window, showing me how long it had to go.
I am on a deadline and support cannot help til Monday US time.
Any suggestions, I only have 8gb of ram, and that cannot be increased in this laptop.
When working at large format, the lpi (screen) and required resolution are normally reduced substantially, based on projected viewing angle [correction: distance], unless creating specialist immersive artwork (which is likely to push technological boundaries.) I recommend you work with your printer to find out the expected lpi and hence dpi.

Printing banner images from photoshop CS3
Hi, I have successfully printed banners 1200mm x 297mm from my Xerox Phaser 7750 and Illustrator (Vector art). When I try to print a photographic image from Photoshop it all prints fine except the last 300mm or so. The image has white bars and properly printed image evenly spaced from top to bottom of the print. I have reduced the resolution and file size but the problem is still there with wider bars the lower the resolution. The original image was 160mb but I have the same issue with a 20mb image. ALso tried placing in Illustrator but get similar problems.
I assume this is a memory issue but I thought lowering the file size drastically would fix it, yet it doesn't. The Printer has a relatively low amount of memory (384mb) but I would like to know if this is the real cause before I dive and buy more memory - big chips are still expensive on this.
Any help would be very welcome.
Thanks. AntHi, I will try printing from inDesign but I have managed to get an image to print out by changing the quality in the print driver to standard - it was previously on 'Enhanced' or 'Photo'. I had tried from Illustrator and had similar problems (printed OK with Illy created art though) so thought it may be a printer memory issue which does seem to be the case. I assumed that by reducing the file size/resolution it would print but it seemed to be the image quality that uses more computing power than the pixel count of the file. I guess a different RIP may also help as it could use the much higher RAM of the Mac rather than the printers meagre 384mb.
I had originally thought it may be a P/Shop issue as I had problems printing to Epson inkjet some months ago and then Epson and Adobe seemed to blame each other!
Thanks for the reply. -
Problem Printing to Large Format Printers From SGD
I am having a problem printing to large format printers when using the PDF printing option for SGD. The SDG Universal PDF Viewer recognizes the print format that I specify but on the client device side the pdf that is produced is always Letter size. If a larger format is speciied the client side pdf displays a small portion of it - almost as if it were clipped at the Letter size. Has anyone experienced this. Is it an SGD problem per se or is it an issue with the Ghostscript configuration and if so is ther a way I can change the config?
I am running 4.6.2 in an RHEL5 environment. The application server I am primarily working with is Windows Server 2008. The printers I have tried to print larger formats to are HP CLJ 2800 PS (Tabloid size), HP Designjet Z6100 (E size), and HP DesignJet 4020ps(E size). In all cases the plot appears to have been clipped into a Letter size format on the client device side.
Thanks,
Edited by: Odog314 on Jul 12, 2012 3:15 PMYou may have encountered a limitation with the GARO driver, especially if it is connected to the USB port of the Express. We have an iPF8100 but it is connected directly to our network via Ethernet so I've never tested the printer via USB. But if the driver is anything like the consumer inkjet drivers, there is often issues with the driver determining the printer model on the end of the USB and this stops the printer queue creation.
Have you tried connecting the printer via Ethernet to the Express and then seeing if you can add the printer queue? You will have to set an IP address in the machine if DHCP is not enabled.

How do I place a large format image into Illustrator
I am trying to place a large format image that I created in Photoshop into Illustrator. I have tried PSD, TIFF, and JPG. I have even cropped down the image into smaller portions to try to make it easier to work with. Every time I try to Place the image I get a dialogue box saying,"The file 'Water 1.jpg' is in an unknown format and cannot be opened.' Can anyone help with this?
I would guess the file is simply too big. Make sure the document is in RGB mode. If I were you, I would never submit a file that size at 300ppi for large format. Large or grand format printers only need around 100 to 144ppi at 100% final size. Also, set the Illustrator file up at 25% scale and place the image at 25% @ 300ppi ( image resolution ends up around 75ppi which is still plenty when enlarged 400% to final size ). Getting back to the original error message, it could be the system is running out of both RAM and scratch disk space and cannot deal with the preview required. Better to scale the file down for large format.

Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.
Dear Adobe community,
I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.
Specs:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, eind 2013)
2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
16GB RAM
1536MB Intel Iris videocard
Thanks!
ChristiaanYou need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
Make sure the background in PS is also transparant. -
'cut-out' images from Photoshop import into FCE with unwanted background
I want to import some custom 'cut-out' images from Photoshop, but they come into FCE with a rectangular background around them. Is there a way to import just the irregular 'cut-out' image?
BobMake sure the images are RGB 8-bit and in a format that carries an alpha channel or Photoshop transparency like Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, even PICT.

Assuming Windows...
You can, assuming you select around the pixels you want to copy, and the selected region isn't too large.
There are a variety of ways you can get the copy operation wrong, e.g., by not having the proper layer selected or similar.
And there's a secret setting to enable Photoshop to export its clipboard no matter how large the selected pixel set is. Note the setting I have bolded below. Keep in mind that by making this setting you may be subjecting all the software on your computer that registers to receive clipboard data to datasets that are larger than it might expect. In other words, there could be a downside. That being said, I haven't had any problems on my Windows 8 system.

Exporting text as an image from Photoshop
I am using a non web safe font and so I am exporting the body of text as an image from Photoshop. Canvas size 900 x 600 pix 72 dpi. However when viewing in the web browser the text looks soft and pixelated.
Does anybody know how I can solve this? All I want is sharp lookinh text!
JHi Vikas
I export files from Photoshop as png's at 72 dpi.
Here is our current holding page. http://www.iheartmylife.co.uk/ All the text on this page has been loaded in as png's from Photoshop along with the image. As you can see none of it is as sharp as it could be.
Many thanks for your assistance.

How to insert cropped images from photoshop without the white background
Basically all I want to do is take a peice of writing from a video and insert it into another video. To do this I've took a screenshot of the font from the video and imported it into photoshop. I've then cropped/cut/took the the peice of writing I want, letter by letter. I want to be able to insert it into another video, but whenever I attempt to do it, I have the default white background of photoshop. Is there anyway to insert an image from photoshop, without taking the background with it, or even insert a layer from photoshop straight into final cut pro? Sorry if this is confusing.
I don't think so. I cropped the letters, put them each an individual file, removed the background, saved them as a TIF then tried to import them onto Final Cut Pro, but a white background still appeared in the TIF file. Basically I just want to make the background transparent I believe.

How do I bring tags on images from photoshop elements 8 to photoshop CS6
How do I bring tags on images from photoshop elements 8 to photoshop CS6

Ask in the PSE/ PS forums. The simple answer is, though, that unless they are emebedded in the image or exist as sidecar XMP files PS won't use them. It doesn't look inside the PSE catalog files/ database.

... which means you have to use the menu /file/write metadata to files so that the tags and ratings are written in the files or sidecar files themselves. -

Taking images from Photoshop and taking them to Dreamweaver
Why is it that when i take my images from photoshop and save them for the web, that when i open them in my dreamweaver html file they have lost quality and saturation in the image?
There are 2 ways to do it correctly one is better then the other. The best way to bring an image into
DW is to first create a layer based sliced and the copy & paste it direc
tly into DW. When you do that you will get a Image optimize window, this is a built-in Firework image
optimizer it does a much better job a maintaing quality will compressing image size. The second optioin is to use the save to web feature. Tehy work the same DW/FW does it better. If your image quality still is not what you want play around with your optimization settings without seeein the image I can't recommend the best setting but play around in your 2up/4up window. -
What settings are best to export sharpened images from Photoshop to use in Final Cut?
I need to give a professional photographer the correct dimensions to export her images from Photoshop for me to use in Final Cut. I told her:
1080 x 1920, 300 dpi, and also to Convert Images to Apple RGB (Final Cut doesnt work well with Adobe RGB, I am told). Her images have alot of heavy sharpening on them--she is an artist--and when i import them into Final Cut, many of the lines that should be crisp are zig-zagged, and if I apply motion to them, they "shake."
My problem is specific to images that have been highly sharpened in Photoshop; i have imported lots of professional images before with no problem. I am on deadline and hope someone out there will see this.You were right about trashing the finalcut plist. As well as a very specific set of directions I now have put together from what you and others have said elsewhere, and this is it, i hope it helps others with their Canon XHA1 and Final Cut Express HD:
Trash the final cut preferences (plist) in your Home - LIbrary.
go into the Canon XHA1 menu, make sure that you're not set to down-convert to DV.
Get out of the menu. Shut the camera off,
plug in the firewire cable to both the camera and computer,
and turn the camera back to VCR mode.
Open up Final Cut, and go to Easy Setup ,
choose HDV- Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60
This worked beautifully but took me nearly four hours to figure out, including researching the web and experimenting in FCE HD
