Adding several images to one document

I am creating some documents in CS2 that will be used on a waiting room monitor to show announcements, pictures, etc.
I need to add several images to the same document.
What is the best method to take three images and add all three to the same document?
Thanks.
Keith

Hit the v key, and drag them over. check your document size and resize your images before dragging them so they are the size you need within the document. flatten the thing when finished.

How Do I Combine Several Images Into One Image Which Contains Links To A Series Of Web Sites?

How do I combine several images into one such that the combined image contains a series of web links? In particular, I’d like to create such an image and put it into my Outlook email signature. At present, as per the image below, I have at least six separate images in my email signature with each image containing a web link. Is Photoshop the best tool for this job? Or would it be easier to do this in some other package? I have three packages at my disposal: Photoshop, Ilustrator and Dreamweaver. Can someone please explain in detail how I would do this? Or perhaps someone could direct me to a link that explains how to do this. Thank you.

Thank you for that correction, Hobotor. I admit I hadn't thought about an image map, in the context of someone who doesn't seem to know HTML very well... My thinking was running along the use of the Photoshop Slice Tool to get most of the way there...
To expand on the above, if you were to slice up your image using the Slice Tool, say like this:
Save for Web & Devices will create the HTML and save all the sub-images.
Then you edit the HTML and add a (hypertext link) elements surrounding the various images. Only thing is you'll have to set the border-style of the images to none.
For example:

<table id="Table_01" width="554" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="10">
   <img id="Sig_01" style="border-style:none" src="images/Sig_01.jpg" width="554" height="56" alt="" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="10">
   <a href="http://www.GrahamsWebSite.com"><img id="Sig_02" style="border-style:none" src="images/Sig_02.jpg"
        width="554" height="43" alt="" /></a></td>
</tr>
etc.
A full copy of the HTML and images can be found here... View Source to see it as an example:

Copy an Image from one document to another

Is there an easy way to copy a rectangle containing an image (not a link to an image) from one document to another?
Thanks.
Chris.

I can now copy-paste text frames and linked graphics from one document to another using snippets, but embedded images still don't work.
If I embed an image from a pdf file it works but not for jpeg images. When I open the new document (for which I placed the snippet) in InDesign, there is a frame (with a dark grey background and a diagonal cross) shown, but no contents. The place() method did not throw an exception. What am I doing wrong?

How do I combine several pdfs into one document?

I just switched to Yosemite, and now I cannot figure out how to combine several pdfs into one document. I rarely need to do this, so I looked at past tutorials, but nothing seems to work. Help!

I don't understand - I've just tried it and it worked. I had 2 multi-page pdfs, opened both in Preview, followed my earlier post and saved the new pdf. The saved file is multi-page

I want to put several images on one sheet. In other words, I want to open a blank document and move photos on to it. Is this possible with Elements, and if so, how do I do it?

OK, another question. I opened a new blank file and the picture I want to move is in the Photo Bin. That image is 2 in. X 3 in. But, when I move it onto the blank image, which is 8X10, it fills up the entire space. I can't figure out how to put it in the new image in the correct size relationship.
Open the picture file, go to Image>resize>image size. Read what the resolution is in px/in, write it down, do nothing else here at this time
Go to File>new>blank file, Enter the dimensions , resolution the same value that you wrote down in step #1, background color to suit, ok it.
Go back to the picture file, go to Select>all, go to Edit>copy to put it on the clipboard
Go back to the blank file, go to Edit>paste
Get the move tool out of the toolbox, position the picture, and resize with the corner handles of the bounding box, if necessary..
Note: For printing, the rule of thumb is that the resolution be in the 240-300px/in range, although I have had good results below this value. For web work, 72 px/in is ok.

OK to copy a placed image from one document to another?

Hi all,
I'm laying out two language versions of an illustrated book. Because they're going to be printed with the same CMY plates (with just the black plates being switched between the languages), the color images need to be in exactly the same places in both documents.
I've found that the easiest way to do this is to first place an image in one language version and then copy it from there to the other document using "Paste in place". I just wanted to make sure that this is OK with regard to the color settings etc.
I'm guessing that ID either uses the same import settings for the second doc as the first one, or uses the default settings. But both would be OK, because I want the default settings anyway, with no conversions.

Have you considered using one document, with a layer for one language and a different layer for the other? But yes, you can copy between docs. Just make sure the image is available in the links manager.

Clipping several images in one rectangular path

Hi guys,
Maybe it isn't possible but in order to make it more easy for me to create a new design, I would like to create a rectangular frame which contains several pictures.
In Illustrator and in Photoshop this is perfectly possible, but in InDesign I can't find an option to create one rectangular frame which clips for example 5 images imported.
Who can help me?
Thanks guys!
Bob

Hi Laubender,
Indeed, I forgot that that's the trick! Thanks a lot!

Adobe photoshop elements 12 - merging several images into one

I have a PC, and had an old version of photoshop where i was able to select file - automate - photomerge, and then choose the images. They would appear in a box at the top of the page and then i could drag them into position in a larger box in the center. as an example, if i had 4 plate images, i could merge them into one with 2 on a row, and then the other 2 below.
i have been everywhere trying to find out how to do this in this new version without success. can anyone help???
a photo is attached of what i am attempting to do.

Copying image from one document to another

Hello,
It is probably a dumb question, but Macintosh and I are like fire and water. I made an indesign document where all the barcodes of my products are stored and another document with the layout of my catalogue. I would like now to paste the first barcode picture from the first document in the first rectangle of the second document using a script.
This is what i have so far (applescript):
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
     set Buffer to rectangle 1 of document "test.indd"
     select Buffer
     copy
     set selected to rectangle 1 of page 1 of document "example.indd"
     paste into selected
end tell
I'm getting the error: Invalid selection status.
Can someone help me?
Thanks

You are completely right! Got my copy of Visual Basic not in the building however.
I just came to the conclusion my questions are quite stupid... It is my first day applescript though!
Here is the solution:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
set myFrame to item 1 of rectangle 1 of document "test.indd"
set selection to item 1 of myFrame
copy
set myDocument to document "example.indd"
set active document to myDocument
set myRectangle to item 1 of rectangle 1 of myDocument
set selection to item 1 of myRectangle
paste into
end tell

Acrobat X combines several images into one when exporting to HTML

I'm trying to export a PDF that contains a table of text and images to HTML. When I do, Acrobat correctly places the text in an HTML table. The individual images, however, are combined into a single image and appear outside the table. Here's a sample PDF.
The images in the PDF are simple sparklines. They're generated in Excel 2011 (Mac). Excel, bless it, can't export sparklines to HTML on its own. So I'm exporting to PDF instead. When I open the PDF in Acrobat, I can select and manipulate the images individually, so I don't think they're already combined before the PDF>HTML export. They are afterwards, though. Since the total number of rows that need to be exported to HTML is about 2,000, exporting the images from Acrobat individually isn't a working solution.
The image that Acrobat exports doesn't even look that great, but a working export would put me miles ahead of where I am now. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Generic advice, which has been true ever since Acrobat 1.0. The fact that you can convert X to PDF, and PDF to Y, does not mean that this is ever a good way to convert X to Y. Too much information is lost at each stage.

Missing text in one document and lose all images in other

Good evening. I've some problems with Page, today i open application and had been displayed "Some images are not available, as has been removed from the document" for all documents. And total lose one document.

Thanks for pointing that out. I probably would have scratched my head over that one sooner or later. Unfortunately, that is not the solution to this problem. Keep in mind that ~2/3 of the window is perfect.

Good day!
A simple Paste does not work for you?
It should place the clipboard content as a new Layer which you can then move around.
If there is any chance that the elements need to be scaled, rotated etc. I would prefer to place them as Smart Objects (File > Place …) and do the masking that is specific to the images themselves in those.

Adding More than one document to a cell in a dataform

Hi All,
I am using EPM 11.1.1.1.0 .
I have a planing application and I need to add three documents to a cell in a data form.
Is there a way i can do this...
I can add one document and can open it as well but did not find a way of adding more than one document. Is it supported on Hyperion Planning ?
Also if we have a document attached to a cell text ...Is there a way to print it out from Hyperion Planning or Workspace?
Regards.
Alicia
Edited by: Alicia on Aug 6, 2009 6:39 AM

Hi,
I believe it will be just one document, I say that because when you go to the cell and choose open document then it is aimed at opening just one document.
As for printing from cell text, you would have to open the document first before being able to print.
Cheers

Embedded images in Word documents are incorrect on one computer but show up fine on another computer

I've not been able to find the root of the problem, but I use an application on my laptop that generates images in a document, and the document can be saved either with docx or htm/html extensions. On the laptop, I see the correct images. When I transfer
the document to my workstation either over the network or by a flash drive, the incorrect images pop up - images from a project that I was working on last summer. If I save the documents as a doc on my laptop, the correct images show up on my desktop. This
happens on many documents that I use, but I do have a document I use as a template. I'd prefer not to create another one, because it is quite involved.
When the incorrect images show up on my workstation, I can save the document to a flash drive (you would think with the incorrect images also being saved), but the correct images show up on my laptop.
This is frustrating to always have to work around this, but I've searched Google and really haven't found anyone else having a problem very close to this. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm actually thinking whether the issue is related to Office version. What are the versions of Office on your laptop and workstation?
Based on the description, the issue doesn't occur if the document is saved as .doc, it only occurs if the document is saved as .docx, so basically we can say your workstation doesn't support .docx well. Is it a version prior to Office 2007?

Finding then combining content from several indesign documents in one document

Hi everyone,
I wonder if someone can help...
I'm trying to write scripts for indesign server which I want to:
a) search for,
b) pick out, then
c) put together content from one or many indesign documents into a template on the server starting at a pre-defined point in the template.
After that we produce a pdf of the document to pass on / do whatever. I've got so far with the scripting documentation but I'm stuck! This is what I've done so far:
1/ create a document template with a script
2/ add text elements to the document template (header and footnote, title,       body text i.e. intro and data, and the contact details)
3/ add text / content from another indesign file into this       document (so far only done it with a .txt file) ...
... I'm stuck on the indesign documents at the moment. I have       looked at various options, the most appropriate way I can see in       the manuals to get content from one document to another is by       duplicating. My understanding is to do this you have to target the text in the source       document, duplicate it and then add it into a text frame on the       target document. It's the targettting of the text and surrounding       elements in the source document I'm battling with.
any ideas on how I go about this effectively?
Any help and advice appreciated!

The story so far...
I've added the code kindly provided by getZinger (thanks again!) and am now stuck on the next stage, . I've commented the code where I'm having problems, and essentially have two key issues to resolve:
1/ how I get the documents to be placed one after the other, avoiding the overlay I get on the first insertion page.
   (I am using a fixed value as an insert point as the template I'm using will always have inserts starting on page 3).
2/ how I access the pdf's I want to insert from a location other than C:\Users\Whoever\Documents\
try{
for(myCounter = app.documents.length; myCounter > 0; myCounter--){
app.documents.item(myCounter-1).close (SaveOptions.no);
myDocument = app.open(File("C:/.../template.indd"));
myPDFFiles = ["pdf1.pdf","pdf2.pdf","pdf3.pdf"];
insertPdf();
function insertPdf(){
//I've gone for a static number here as the datapage in the skeleton doc is page 3.
//This seems to result in some of the pages being placed on top of each other :-(
    var myPage = myDocument.pages.item(2);
    /*var myPageNames = new Array;
    //Get the names of the pages in the document
    for(var myCounter = 0; myCounter < myDocument.pages.length;myCounter++){
        myPageNames.push(myDocument.pages.item(myCounter).name);
    var myPDFSet = File("C:/Users/Simon/Desktop/Mexico.pdf");
    for(myIndex=0;myIndex<myPDFFiles.length;myIndex++){
    myPDFSet = File(myPDFFiles[myIndex])
    myPlacePDF(myDocument, myPage, myPDFSet);
    myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, new File("C:/.../test_insert.pdf"), false);
    myDocument.close(SaveOptions.no);
}catch(e) { myDocument.close(SaveOptions.no); }
function myPlacePDF(myDocument, myPage, myPDFSet){
var myPDFPage;
app.pdfPlacePreferences.pdfCrop = PDFCrop.cropMedia;
var myCounter = 1;
var myBreak = false;
while(myBreak == false){
if(myCounter > 1){
myPage = myDocument.pages.add(LocationOptions.after, myPage);
app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = myCounter;
//the files seem to be automatically placed from C:\Users\Whoever\Documents
//I need to change this to accept a different file path somehow but I don't know how
//this is why the myPDFFiles array only has filenames at the moment
myPDFPage = myPage.place(File(myPDFSet), [0,0])[0];
if(myCounter == 1){
var myFirstPage = myPDFPage.pdfAttributes.pageNumber;
else{
if(myPDFPage.pdfAttributes.pageNumber == myFirstPage){
myPage.remove();
myBreak = true;
myCounter = myCounter + 1;
once again, thanks for taking the time to read this, any help greatly appreciated :-)
