AE Rendering Problem due to format constraints
Okay so i make my first complete video in Ae(its an introduction). I'm really happy and i am all like lalalal lets render this **** and brag to everyone i know about what a hardcore Ae user i am, when adobe Renders my video of 8 sec to about 1.2 GB and i am all like wait that's not right and i start googling and apparently many people face this problem and it can easily be solved by compressing your video further by setting your Video codec to DV NTSC, DV PAL or DV(24p Advanced). I go ahead and change the video codec and BAM "Setting Mismatch". It shows that all of these codecs run at 720x480 Max whereas my original project i was working on was set at 1920x1080. If i still continue with this and Render My audio doesn't synchronize and is a few seconds behind that where it should originally be. This is because 1920x1080 runs at 30 fps whereas 720x480 runs at 25. If someone with knowledge about this problem could help me out i would be indebted to you.
All right guys its my first time on this forum and i might sound like a noob asking this question, but googling it did not give me any clear results.
Thanks in Advance
A fellow Ae User
You don't want to be using standard definition codecs, you want to be using the Adobe Media Encoder to render your files to h.264 using a standard HD preset. Check out the third video here: Basic Workflow

Outlook 2013: Memory smudge, or screen rendering problems due to laggy?
Hi,
I am observing a strange occurrence among some of my users with Outlook 2013. When they open a few new emails, whether they minimize or switch to another emails to read, there is some portion of the previous emails left behind. It is like a digital
smudge of the previous screen left hanging there. It will go off after awhile
This guy has the same issue as me:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e930b6c6-3a36-41dd-aad6-4f492fd9e448/having-screen-rendering-memory-problems-with-microsoft-outlook-2013-and-full-screen-mode-with?forum=officeitpro
I don't have a screenshot yet, but I was wondering
if this is due to lack of memory.
Thanks.The answer given in the link you referenced is the most likely solution to your issue as it is often caused by the graphics card driver.
Make sure you have the latest driver installed and if that doesn't solve it, disable the hardware graphics acceleration.

Serious problem due to time constraints, please help.
Hi, I've taken a DVD from one of our clients, brought it through DVD-DV and imported the DV into iMovie, did the edits, put in chapters, exported to iDVD all set as DVD-NTSC. I've burnt several DVD's and they all play fine on the ole iMac G5, rev b, but I just found today, alarmingly they will not play on any regular TV set DVD player that they've been tried on. Neither my bosses, my own or a friends. THey just don't see a disc. I imagine these are probably a little older DVD units. I've burnt to DVD-R. I noticed that the DVD I burnt from was double layer and the first ones I burnt although burnt on single layer DVD's had a double layer check mark in iDVD preferences. I unchecked that to single layer and re encoded and burnt. Still no dice. I need to make this work. Any ideas? I'm going tomorrow to buy a new DVD player at Fry's. I will take the disc with me to see if a newer player works, but I would like to have it so my boss can play it on his home. I mean this is kinda rediculous and frustrating, all the transiant standards and such. Plus my inexperience is a not happy mix. I also have FCE and can try to burn it from that, and I have Toast 5.2, maybe I;'ll look at that as well.
Any help truly appreciated.DVD-R media brands seem to make a difference in player compatibility. I suggest using Verbatim DVD-R (not DVD+R) burned at 4x or slower. Office Depot near me stocks Verbatim.
My reliable DVD-Rs have been: Apple 4X (Maxell ID), RiTek 4X; Verbatim 1-8X, RiData 8X, and PioData 8X, all white inkjet printable. The RiData and PioData checked out to be RiTek-made.
Verbatim is reliable and can be found in many stores in the USA. They even make a special grade for medical records.
You can buy the RiTek, RiData, and PioData at:
http://www.shop4tech.com/
Verbatim may be available in your neighborhood store or:
http://www.taperesources.com/
http://www.newegg.com/
Apple brand can be purchased from the Apple online store.
You can check the manufacturer's ID by using DVD Media Inspector: http://homepage.mac.com/raktajino/dvdmediainspector/dvdmediainspector.html
Here's a great site: http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
You could wade through this: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdmedia
From that database: Five brands and who actually manufactures the DVDs:
TDK = TDK, RITEKG04, RICOHJPN, MXL, CMC, MCC
Memorex = CMC, RICOHJPN, PRODISC, INFODISC
Imation = CMC, MCC, Ritek, Prodisc
Sony = MCC 01RG20, Sony04D1, TYG01
Fuji = FUJIFILM02..4X, FUJIFILM03..8X, ProdiscF01..8x, ProdiscS03..4x, PVC001001..2x, RITEKG03..1x, TAIYOYUDEN..2x, TYG01..4x, TYG02..8x
This can result in "mixed" experiences...
My friend used TDK on his Mac and it wouldn't play in his 5 year old Sony DVD player. All of mine play OK in his "antique" Sony. Update: He finally gave up on that antique and bought a Sony DVPNS775V which also plays double-layer DVD+R. -
AE CS6 – MP2 anamorphic rendering format constraints
Hi all,
I've been using AE for a couple of years now, and only just had a problem I haven't been able to solve with the answers to previous questions in the forums.
SO…
I'm creating some display ads in AE (CS6) for large screens (wrapped around totems) which use anamorphic formatting, and this seems to be causing issues with 2 of the videos when I come to render them.
The spec I have been given is to render these out as MP2s, and in 2 different sizes, but when I do so, the Pixel Aspect Ratio alters due to the 'format constraints' as follows:
[A] 720 x 540 px (4 x 3 ratio) original 2.00 PAR (anamorphic) renders to 720 x 540 px but with 1.66 PAR
[B] 720 x 405 px (16 x 9 ratio) original 2.00 PAR (anamorphic) renders to 720 x 405 px but with 1.24 PAR
My question:
Is there any way to override the format constraints to have no change in PAR?
Alternatively, any other way that I can export these (and then convert them to MP2 after) without altering the PAR or resizing?
Thanks in advance for any help!Those constraints are inherent in the MPEG-2 specs, so there is no way to override them. Whatever MP2 flavor you use is very likely a specific "hacky" CoDec tied to the playback software or it corrects the PAR via the hardware.

Follow up to recent posts regarding rendering problems
I've read all posts to Berrett below but can't seem to get my "Flip Video" camcorder (uses MPEG-4AVI) video into FCE without the rendering problem. I've tried to convert in two ways. Using MPEG Streamclip I transferred my video to my desktop using the "export to DV" command. It appears on desktop with a .DV suffix I then imported into browser. After editing in the viewer and trying to insert edit in canvas I get the message " "..clip does not match sequence settings..." I then click yes to change sequence settings and the clip moves to timeline. The video plays but the audio has to be rendered.
Next, I tried converting using the export to quicktime command in Streamclip with sound uncompressed and setting to DV-NTSC. When I insert into FCE and insert edit I get the sound but the picture has to be rendered. What am I doing wrong?
I've been working on this all day and am getting very depressed. Please help. Thanks.
Ed
SThanks but I think I tried that without success. I must have a setting somewhere wrong. My audio is fine but I still have to render my video. Using Streamclip to convert to quicktime here are the setting I used in the Movie Exporter dialog box.
Compression: Apple Motion JPEG A
Sound: uncompressed
frame size 720x480 (DV-NTSC)
In FCE my easy setup is
Format: NTSC
Use: DV-NTSC

Hello
I recently stopped making videos to have a break, but now I'm back...but Im encountering strange rendering problem.
I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CC, my PC specs are
Intel core i5 2.8GHz
4GBs RAM
GeForce GTX 760 (Asus OC version)
64 bit Windows 8.1
Now to the problem. I render the video normally, everything normal. But when I play the video back, the audio is in sync at the beginning, then starts to slowly unsync itself as the video progresses.
But it doesn't stop there. The video randomly speeds ahead, and then jumps back about 5 seconds. The video continues for about 30 seconds, speeding up, then skips back again.
I've tried exporting the video & audio separately, but to no avail.
I've tried multiple file formats and bitrates and sizes, same problem.
It should be noted that the video plays fine in the program, just after it's exported, things go bad.
I know this may be hard to fix, but any help appreciated.
If you need any more info, just ask.
Thank you.
Edit: it should be noted that I changed my graphics card recently, that may or may not be the cause.HMm... My video is 30fps but at the end Theres a bit of an Easter egg where an images flashes rapidly, possibly in between frames, could this be the cause?
thanks for your help, though I won't be able to get on my computer for about 15 hours now, I'll keep you updated via my phone. -
AFTER EFFECTS CS4 Rendering Problems....
Hey people I have been having some rendering problems on CS4 It's very random when i'm getting these errors, sometimes it's just for the one frame..which i'm not bothered about because at 60fps, 1 frame isn't going to be noticable. But at the end of my last render, the last 10 frames are like this, but differ between pink and white at the top. (see picture at the bottom)
Here are my settings
lossless, with audio checked
avi output format
no compression method
Also i've re-rendered the dodgy footage in sony vegas but that didn't change anything
that is what the frame looks like....
If anyone can help me id be so thankful.... so please post!!!
also if you have any questions just post and i will get back to you ASAPSince we don't know what this frame is SUPPOSED to look like, it's extremely difficult to offer up a solution.
If you're talking about the weird color in the corners, you can work in 16 or 32-bit comps, or add a little noise to the image. Not much. -
Rendering problem in output of Pages 5.1
Has anyone else seen a print rendering problem when trying to print a table in Pages 5.1?
All my text in tables is jagged and lower-resolution than other text:
(Printed from Pages 5.1 (1769) on a HP Color LaserJet CP2025 from a retina MacBook Pro original model running Mavericks 10.9.1.)
To see the problem, you must look at the full size image. Right-click to open it in a new tab.
The type is set to Helvetica 12 pt black.
The borders are set to 0.5 pt black. The top two lines have a border on all sides.
The top line's border is nearly invisible; on the full size image you should see a faint blueish line.
The middle line's box box is supposed to be
 a full box, but it is missing two sides. But at least this hairline renders properly.
The pdf of the same file looks fine on screen, even at high magnification. The problem only shows up in print.
The same problem exists in Numbers (where I first experienced it):
https://discussions.apple.com/message/24695801#24695801I see you followed Jerry's advice to post over here, and haven't got any responces, so I'll at least try to get a little more information into the discussion.
Since the document prints to pdf correctly, but not to the actual printer, it seems likely that it is a print driver issue. In the Numbers discussion on the issue, the original person with the issue was using a HP printer with a postscript driver. Since the HP support site was not very clear about whether a driver for that printer on Mavericks even existed, and the recommendation for a generic driver was for a PCL driver, not postscript, I suspect that they were not using a recommended configuration. It would probably be helpful to know the details about your printer and print driver.
Do you have access to more than one printer to test this on?
The new versions of Numbers and Pages are doing something strange in terms of how they copy tables to the system clipboard; the pdf version is no longer available, only bitmap images. Print to pdf, however seems to still get the pdf data. I don't think this should have anything to do with the data getting to the print driver, but it does seem consistent with your results. -
Spry Menu Bar 2.0 (1.0) - Handling of widget generated CSS, placement and rendering problems in CSS
Hello:
I wanted to repost my question to re-frame the issue based on what I have learned thus far.
I am working on a website that has been developed using the Spry Menu Bar Framework UI (2.0) I.0, that has some peculiar rendering problems that affect IE 6 in particular. The CSS is reprinted below.
In particular, when I post the widget generated CSS in the head as it is orginally situated by the framework, the menu bar works fine. However, it seemed to me that I should be able to reduce page weight (an important consideration considering my target population) by placing it in the general style sheet governing the entire site.
When I place the styles at the beginning of the style sheet the menu doesn't render at all in any of the browsers (IE 6+, Firefox, Opera, Safari, Netscape, etc.) as it conflicts with the general rules governing links that appear later in the style sheet. When I place the styles specific to the Menu bar at the end of the style sheet, then the menu bar renders properly in all browsers except IE 6.
The odd thing is that the only way to ensure that the menu bar works in IE 6 is to keep the menu related styles in the head of each page. This raises problems related to page weight (not an insurmountable consideration if no other solution can be found) but still an issue. Likewise I need to support IE 6, again given the target audience/population. The issue obviously has something to do with specificity, but I am not certain that is the only consideration at work here. I have not tried the !important selector in regard to the menu, as IE 6 seems to only partially support this.
Thanks in advance for any advice or insight that can be provided. Thanks in particular to Martin for his contributions to my earlier question related to this issue.
Steve Webster.
The CSS governing the horizontal menu bar is as follows: (currently the following CSS is embedded in the head of the web page)
<style type="text/css">
/* -- Begins Spry Menu Widget 2.0 (1.0) Horizontal menu bar Custom styles -- */
/* BeginOAWidget_Instance_2141544: #MenuBar */
/* Settable values for skinning a Basic menu via presets. If presets are not sufficient, most skinning should be done in
these rules, with the exception of the images used for down or rightpointing arrows, which are in the file SpryMenuBasic.css
These assume the following widget classes for menu layout (set in a preset)
.MenuBar - Applies to all menubars - default is horizontal bar, allsubmenus are vertical - 2nd level subs and beyond are pull-right.
.MenuBarVertical - vertical main bar; all submenus are pull-right.
You can also pass in extra classnames to set your desired top levelmenu bar layout. Normally, these are set by using a preset.
They only apply to horizontal menu bars:
MenuBarLeftShrink - The menu bar will be horizontally 'shrinkwrapped' to be just large enough to hold its items, and left aligned
MenuBarRightShrink - Just like MenuBarLeftShrink, but right aligned
MenuBarFixedLeft - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedLeft', and left aligned.
MenuBarFixedCentered - - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedCentered',
and centered in its parent container.
MenuBarFullwidth - Grows to fill its parent container width.
In general, all rules specified in this file are prefixed by #MenuBar so they only apply to instances of the widget inserted along
with the rules. This permits use of multiple MenuBarBasic widgets onthe same page with different layouts. Because of IE6 limitations,
there are a few rules where this was not possible. Those rules are so noted in comments.
#MenuBar {
background-color:transparent;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; /* Specify fonts on onMenuBar and subMenu MenuItemContainer, so MenuItemContainer,
MenuItem, and MenuItemLabel

so use caution in using relative sizes other than
100% on submenu fonts. */

/* IE6 rules - you can delete these if you do not want to support IE6 */
/* A note about multiple classes in IE6.
* Some of the rules above use multiple class names on an element forselection, such as "hover" (MenuItemHover) and "has a subMenu"(MenuItemWithSubMenu),
* giving the selector '.MenuItemWithSubMenu.MenuItemHover'.
* Unfortunately IE6 does not support using mutiple classnames in aselector for an element. For a selector such as '.foo.bar.baz', IE6ignores
* all but the final classname (here, '.baz'), and sets thespecificity accordingly, counting just one of those classs assignificant. To get around this
* problem, we use the plugin in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js to generate compound classnames for IE6, such as 'MenuItemWithSubMenuHover'.
* Since there are a lotof these needed, the plugin does not generate the extra classes formodern browsers, and we use the CSS2 style mutltiple class
* syntax for that. Since IE6 both applies rules where
* it should not, and gets the specificity wrong too, we have to order rules carefully, so the rule misapplied in IE6 can be overridden.
* So, we put the multiple class rule first. IE6 will mistakenly apply this rule. We follow this with the single-class rule that it would
* mistakenly override, making sure the misinterpreted IE6 specificity is the same as the single-class selector, so the latter wins.
* We then create a copy of the multiple class rule, adding a '.SpryIsIE6' class as context, and making sure the specificity for
* the selector is high enough to beat the single-class rule in the "both classes match" case. We place the IE6 rule at the end of the
* css style block to make it easy to delete if you want to drop IE6 support.
* If you decide you do not need IE6 support, you can get rid of these,as well as the inclusion of the SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.jsscript.
* The 'SpryIsIE6' class is placed on the HTML element by the script in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js if the browser isInternet Explorer 6. This avoids the necessity of IE conditionalcomments for these rules.

color: #0303A0;Hi Nancy:
The specific code that I am referring to is the CSS code governing the styling of the spry menu widget that only works in IE 6 if, and only if, it remains in the head of the web page. If removed and placed in a stylesheet, the IE plugins fail to compensate for the IE 6 "gap" bug. As I said, it doesn't make sense to me that, assuming specificity is addressed, that these can not be included in an external style sheet. I am looking for a) an explanation why they must remain embedded in the web page; and 2) any means by which I might be able to export them.
I will reproduce the specific css style (code) below: it should also be visable through reveal source --
Thanks again, Steve Webster.
The CSS governing the horizontal menu bar is as follows: (currently the following CSS is embedded in the head of the web page)
<style type="text/css">
/* -- Begins Spry Menu Widget 2.0 (1.0) Horizontal menu bar Custom styles -- */
/* BeginOAWidget_Instance_2141544: #MenuBar */
/* Settable values for skinning a Basic menu via presets. If presets are not sufficient, most skinning should be done in
these rules, with the exception of the images used for down or rightpointing arrows, which are in the file SpryMenuBasic.css
These assume the following widget classes for menu layout (set in a preset)
.MenuBar - Applies to all menubars - default is horizontal bar, allsubmenus are vertical - 2nd level subs and beyond are pull-right.
.MenuBarVertical - vertical main bar; all submenus are pull-right.
You can also pass in extra classnames to set your desired top levelmenu bar layout. Normally, these are set by using a preset.
They only apply to horizontal menu bars:
MenuBarLeftShrink - The menu bar will be horizontally 'shrinkwrapped' to be just large enough to hold its items, and left aligned
MenuBarRightShrink - Just like MenuBarLeftShrink, but right aligned
MenuBarFixedLeft - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedLeft', and left aligned.
MenuBarFixedCentered - - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedCentered',
and centered in its parent container.
MenuBarFullwidth - Grows to fill its parent container width.
In general, all rules specified in this file are prefixed by #MenuBar so they only apply to instances of the widget inserted along
with the rules. This permits use of multiple MenuBarBasic widgets onthe same page with different layouts. Because of IE6 limitations,
there are a few rules where this was not possible. Those rules are so noted in comments.
#MenuBar {
background-color:transparent;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; /* Specify fonts on onMenuBar and subMenu MenuItemContainer, so MenuItemContainer,

so use caution in using relative sizes other than
100% on submenu fonts. */

/* IE6 rules - you can delete these if you do not want to support IE6 */
/* A note about multiple classes in IE6.
* Some of the rules above use multiple class names on an element forselection, such as "hover" (MenuItemHover) and "has a subMenu"(MenuItemWithSubMenu),
* giving the selector '.MenuItemWithSubMenu.MenuItemHover'.
* Unfortunately IE6 does not support using mutiple classnames in aselector for an element. For a selector such as '.foo.bar.baz', IE6ignores
* all but the final classname (here, '.baz'), and sets thespecificity accordingly, counting just one of those classs assignificant. To get around this
* problem, we use the plugin in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js to generate compound classnames for IE6, such as 'MenuItemWithSubMenuHover'.
* Since there are a lotof these needed, the plugin does not generate the extra classes formodern browsers, and we use the CSS2 style mutltiple class
* syntax for that. Since IE6 both applies rules where
* it should not, and gets the specificity wrong too, we have to order rules carefully, so the rule misapplied in IE6 can be overridden.
* So, we put the multiple class rule first. IE6 will mistakenly apply this rule. We follow this with the single-class rule that it would
* mistakenly override, making sure the misinterpreted IE6 specificity is the same as the single-class selector, so the latter wins.
* We then create a copy of the multiple class rule, adding a '.SpryIsIE6' class as context, and making sure the specificity for
* the selector is high enough to beat the single-class rule in the "both classes match" case. We place the IE6 rule at the end of the
* css style block to make it easy to delete if you want to drop IE6 support.
* If you decide you do not need IE6 support, you can get rid of these,as well as the inclusion of the SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.jsscript.
* The 'SpryIsIE6' class is placed on the HTML element by the script in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js if the browser isInternet Explorer 6. This avoids the necessity of IE conditionalcomments for these rules.

I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
PDF XChange (my favorite)
Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
Adobe (the bloated monster)
Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
ABBYY
And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
Here is what I've learned for my situation
The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files. -
A Problem with Region Format Settings
Hi!
I have a peculiar problem with Region Format settings on my iPod touch (Settings > General > International > Region Format). It appears that iPod touch can support more region formats than it is stated on that list. Once I registered my iPod, I selected my location, Lithuania, and it automatically set (I think because of this action, and not another, like my PC settings) Region Format to Lithuanian. Although it is nonexistent on the menu list! Good news!
However, the problem is that while I explored my iPod I accidentally checked another region, and there is no "cancel" option. So my region switched to another. And now I am not able to switch it back to Lithuanian again because there is no such selection (reset or restore didn't help).
Has anybody any suggestions how could I return to my preferred region format (Lithuanian)? Thanks!thats interesting. I think the ipod took those settings from your computer/mac.
anyway, shouldn't there be something near you that has the same region format settings? maybe you can just use something that's exactly the same.
and btw: some of the regions have arrows next to them which brings you to subregions of that region. maybe you should check that out?
otherwise ... well ... I think only a restore would bring back the original settings. -
Since numbers 3.1 rendering problem in output
Since I upgraded to Numbers 3.1 all printed output is no more crispy, it looks like a rendering problem. My Number documents consist of normal text elements and tables, sometimes some charts. Scaling on printout is not activated. On the Mac display the problem does not exist, everything seems to be fine, also in large zoom factors. But printing the document produces some kind of unrendered, pixely output, comparable to a screenshot, by far not that crisp as in Numbers 3.0.1. Other applications such as Pages, Word, Excel are not affected, printouts are fine.
What I did so far:
- uninstall and reinstall numbers
- changing, reinstalling the printer driver (HP Color LaserJet 2025 Series), I use the Postscript driver
- converting the Number documents to Numbers '09 and opening them again
- playing and testing with numerous zoom factors
- changing fonts in the Numbers document
... all without any success.
What helped me was:
- Installing Numbers 3.0.1 again using TimeMachine, installed it parallel to Numbers 3.1
- In Numbers 3.1 exporting the Numbers document to Numbers '09
- Opening that document in Numbers 3.0.1
- Printing the document in Numbers 3.0.1 --> Output ist fine and perfect.
It seems to be a rendering problem, only in Numbers 3.0.1. The problem appears in all existing and new Numbers documents on Numbers 3.1.
Here is my infrastructure:
MacBook Air Mid 2013, OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
Numbers 3.1 (1769)
HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn using PostScript
Many thanks for your help!
speckchPerhaps you can see the problem in this version. This is a PRINTING problem. You cannot see it on screen in the pdf.
This is a single Numbers document, printed directly from Numbers (3.1). The font is identical in both lines. The box color is identical (black) and the width of the line is identical (0.5 pt). It was printed on an HP Color LaserJet CP2025.
The upper text is jagged. It may look fine on your screen, but it's not.
This is very obvious if you look at the larger image that is linked to the image above. (Remember, a computer screen is only 72 dpi and this image is optimized for that. Printed text is much higher resolution. So, to get an accurate view on your screen of how jagged the text is when printed, you need to look at it magnified. Right-click on the image above to open the image in a new tab, and you should get the full size.)
Also, the because the upper image is lower resolution (jaggies), the narrow line cannot print accurately. Thus, it appears blueish. When you look at the full-size image, you can see how jagged the line is and the mix of dots (red and blue, predominantly) that was output by the printer. In contrast, the lower text box is smooth and black.
I don't know where the problem lies, but I have not experienced anything like this on any other program I currently use. It's a postscript printer, and I suspect that something's gone wrong in the postscript output associated with tables and the printer is printing the screen view, not the higher resolution printer data. But that's just a guess. And as far as I know, it's not something anyone other than Apple can fix.
And, of course, since you can't see this problem on screen in the pdf, no matter how much you "zoom" in, you won't know if your files will print badly until you test it. Or, worse, your client does.
Bummer.
