Anchored frames exported as images are solid white

Hello,
I have FrameMaker 8.0p277 on Windows XP (one machine SP2, one SP3), and am trying to use Mif2Go to create a CHM/HTML Help menu. The problem I'm having is that some of my anchored frames are being converted to .jpgs that are solid white. Not all of them, just some - mostly, those that are relatively large (they vary, but 300 x 400 pixels would be one of the larger ones).
Mif2Go is looking into the issue, but it's starting to look like I might be running into a memory limit within FrameMaker?
Is anyone familiar with this problem? Is there any way around it aside from not using FrameMaker's filters?
Thanks for your help.

By completely uninstalling and reinstalling TCS, I was able
to alter my filter selections. In the re-install, everything was
selected by default. This time I just left everything selected.
Then in RH I built a completely new project. Unfortunately,
the generated images are still blank when viewed in RH or PaintShop
Pro. I've tried specifying JPG and BMP, but the result is the same.

When I open PS from LR to edit an image, the thumbnail appears in the side bar but the image area is white, PS CC 2014!

Hi,
I've just started a subscription for the Photographers package, when I open PS from LR to edit an image, the thumbnail appears in the side bar but the image area is white, I'm sure this is a stupid newbie mistake but I can't for the life of me see what I've done wrong.

Are you referring the the multiple thumbnails in ACR side bar? I don't use LR but I do use Photoshop and as far as I know Photoshop has no sidebar with image thumbnails.

Frame7: How to 'snug' an anchored frame to an image (make it the exact same size)?

I remember there's a key combination to do this (at least I think I remember that), but have no idea what it is.
I insert an anchored frame in my doc.
I select the frame and import an object (a visio drawing).
I want the frame to be exactly the same size as the drawing - right now I'm using the grab bars and resizing the frame, but that's not totally accurate.
Help?
Thanks!

You are a GOD!
Many thanks... it's such a handy tool. Makes everything fit perfectly, no mistakes in aligning the frame edge and obscuring image content, *and* it shows if your image has 'junk' floating in it.
(I just tried it on one of my linked Visio drawings and the frame went *huge*. Turns out there was a stray line hanging off the bottom of the visible area of the drawing :-) )

Anchored frames appear in white

Hello there
I'm using RH9 / FM10 to create an online documentation for my company's products.
I link my FM documents in RH. However, my problem is that the anchored frame around my images appear in white (see example below). I wondered if there is a way to make my anchored frames transparent ? Thanks a lot for your help.

let me add: the sequence is 320x240. In trying to work around, I can export to quicktime conversion without the strange frames appearing. Also, I've reimported the qt version back into a FCP timeline and tried to ripple delete them out, but FCP quits repeatedly when I scroll onto the weird frames (6 times).

So simple, yet so annoying: problem resizing anchored frame with grab bars

Asked a question yesterday on how to 'snug' an anchored frame to an image. Got the answer and it works great (Esc-m-p)
Now... the reason I needed to do this is that when I try to resize a frame with the grab bars, it 'jerks' as I move vertically or horizontally.
What that means is...
With borders on, the frame border is a dotted line.
If I grab the left side of a frame and move my mouse to the right to make the frame smaller, the border doesn't move smoothly -- it jumps a distance of about 1.5 of those dotted lines. Thus I can't always make the frame fit nicely.
Talked to another Frame user and she said that her's drags smoothly.
So... am I missing a setting somewhere? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

##&*!
I was working over a VPN when I first experienced the problem... everything was slower than molasses. Set Snap off, did some other work, Frame crashed.
Setting didn't persist, but everything had taken so long I forgot to check it.
Gah. Yes, Snap off works wonders when it's *actually* off.

Best Practices for image layout and positioning using anchored frames in Framemaker 10

Hi,
I'm looking for the best practices in how to layout my images in Framemaker 10 so that they translate correctly to Robohelp 9. I currently have images inside of Anchored frames that "Run into" the right side of my text. I've adjusted the size of the anchored frame so that my text flows correctly around the image. Everything looks good in Framemaker! Yeah! The problem is that when I link my Framemaker document to Robohelp, the text does not flow around my image in the same manner. On a couple of Robohelp screens the image is running into the footer. I'm wondering if I should be using tables in Framemaker in order to get the page layout that I'm looking for. Also, I went back and forth...is this a Framemaker question or is this a Robohelp question. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I wish I could offer some advice, rather than simply adding to your question. I think there is something odd that happens with anchored frames.
I have been going through fits trying to figure out why the placement of my graphics shifts when I run them through Frame 10-to-RoboHelp 9 conversion. The placement in our books is flush left to the body text area. However, when they convert, some are flush left, some are centered, and a very few are flush right. My boss is very unhappy with me, as I have been unable to figure out why this is happening. I didn't create these files, so I don't know if it's something that goes back to how the graphics were initially imported. But I can't figure out why everything looks right in Framemaker, with the frame attached to an anchor tag, etc. but the placement goes hinky when they convert.
Any insights are appreciated. I'm wondering if it's going to come down to deleting them and recreating the graphic frame.

Images exported using Leopard are soft compared to Tiger.

I've been working on exporting images for client preview and noticed that the images I'm exporting under Leopard seem a bit soft. I checked my export settings and everything looks the same as it did under Tiger.
For comparisons sake, I exported several images that had previously been exported under Tiger and there is a definite difference. Side-by-side, the images exported using Leopard are much softer than the images exported using Tiger. The edits on these images were all previously done using Tiger.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I'm using 1.5.6 on 10.5.1.
Thank you!
Cheers,
Anthony

Everything looks fine for me from Aperture and LR. I did a clean install of Leopard and all my apps on a Macbook Pro. Are you looking at images in photoshop to compare them? Preview is not a reliable way to check for sharpness right now, since some rocket scientist decide it would be cool if you couldn't scale in set increments anymore, and the randomly scaled rendition can be very soft. As a follow-on to that thought, are the images on your web site displaying at the size you exported them at? If they're being scaled on the web page, and safari is using the same rendering engine as Preview, it's possible that it's making the images look soft.
hope i said something useful.
Hi Janet,
Hmmm, perhaps the fresh install is the way to go? I'm using Photo Mechanic view the exported images, not Preview or Safari. I only mentioned Preview in an earlier thread because in other discussions I've found, Preview appears to exhibit some of the same softness that myself and a few others are experiencing with our Aperture exports.
Here's a screen grab of two images rendered side-by-side in PhotoMechanic. The top image was exported using Tiger while the bottom image was exported using Leopard. The actual edits on the image (white balance, sharpness, etc) were done previously in Tiger. The only thing I did to the image in Leopard was export it.
http://www.barbatto.com/misc/comparison.jpg
In this example, it's pretty obvious that the image exported with Leopard is much softer. Also note that the file size is slightly smaller for the Leopard exported image.
As for the images on my website, most of them were exported with Aperture under Tiger. Since I've upgraded to Leopard and have been experiencing soft images, I've been using Canon's Digital Photo Professional to export any newer shots I've placed on my site.
Regarding Lightroom, I installed the trial and its exports were flawless. They don't exhibit any of the softness I am experiencing with Aperture.
So, right now, I'm at a loss. I experience this softness on both my MacPro and MacBook Pro. It should be noted that both machines were upgraded. Perhaps I should take some time and do a clean install on one of the machines and see if my results are any different. Or keep my fingers crossed that 10.5.2 will solve my problems
Thanks for your comments!

Changing Frame Padding On Image Sequence Exports, Media Encoder

Hello Adobe World,
I am using dynamic link from After Effects to Media Encoder and I am trying to export an image sequence with a specific numbering system for input into software code. Is there any way to change the frame padding or change the numbering system for Image sequence exports?
We are trying to speed up our workflow by Batch rendering from AME. AE does let us set our frame numbering and gives us an option for creating sub-folders (it's surprising the AE is much more organized in it's export options that AME). We need to be able to render more than one thing at a time and need to keep working in AE while the files are rendering. I have not found a workable background rendering plug-in for CC14. We could use AME if there is a way to fix the Number system. We are working on a PC Windows 8. I can provide more system specs if it is necessary.
Side note: in AE we can use [#] to set the numbering value and in AME it does not work.
Thank you for your help!
Still looking for an answer on this.... it's been 2 months.... Adobe team? Anyone?

Change it to this?

Drag and drop images into anchored frames -- can this be done with the images imported by reference?

My company bought a product from another company and the only manuals files that came with it were in pdf format. I am currently grabbing text out in Acrobat, then pasting and reformatting it in FrameMaker. Boring and tedious. . . .
Eventually I get to the point of importing the illustrations. There are *hundreds* of them. As a rule, we import the files by reference, to keep the chapter size smaller and to be able to double click the image to open it for modification.
However, I can drag an image file from the folder window and drop it into an anchored frame. Oooh, this is fast--way faster than all the mousework that goes into clicking file>import>file>[choosing the file then hitting the import button].
But, dang it, that copies the image into the FrameMaker file. No double-click opening. Giant fm. file size. Mad boss, shaking an SOP standards sheet in my face.
So, my question: Is there a way to import an image *by reference* by dragging and dropping them into an anchored frame?
Thanks, folks.
Moore. Matt Moore.

I tried the RTF route and, in addition to getting the body text I wanted, got paragraph after paragraph of the page numbers, the illustration text, the header and footer verbiage, all randomly placed between body text paragraphs.
I did the same file twice, once by saving as RTF and deleting unwanted stuff, then repairing body paragraphs (each line of which is a seperate paragraph in the RTF file) and also by sweeping only the necessary text, then copying and pasting it page by page. The second method was a bit faster and less frustrating. Not to say that it isn't slow and frustrating in itself, but just a bit less. Less errors, too, with the second method.
Bummer about importing by reference. I don't suppose there's a way to set up recorded actions with hotkeys, is there? Like in Illustrator?
Thanks, Art.

CR Viewer tool bar images are missing; Export and Print are not working

Hi There
I used Crystal report 10.5(VS 2008 base crytal report -- CRRedist2008_x86.msi), i developed ASP.net application using VB.net program(i used .net 3.5). One of the pages in the application is having crystal report viewer, which is calling a crystal report to populate the result. The report is working as expected on development machine (Win Vista). Hence, I moved the application onto Server (Windows Server Web; 32Bit OS and IIS). I installed the CRRedist2008_x86.msi, which added the "aspnet_client" under default website. As my site is a made as an application under default webiste. I tried...
a) By copying the aspnet_client folder into the website folder
b) By adding a virtual directory called "aspnet_client" under my website pointing it into the folder under "default website"
None of the trials are working for me.
When I click on Print or Export buttons (although their images are missing), I get the error sigh on bottom left (status bar) of the browser and the popping up the same giving me below error details

Hello All.
I am excited to let you know that the issue is being resolved.
Here is steps that lead me to resolution and solution..
I installed Fiddler2 and looked into every the debugging details of the transaction while running the report.
Learned that the crystal report is using the aspnet_client foler under "Default website" NOT under the crrent website.
Hence I tried to access the image via http path from local machine
http://myserver/aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/CrystalReportWebFormViewer4/images/toolbar/export.gif.
(Notice, "mysite" folder is been removed)
I was expecting to see the gif on my browsers' body. It gave me an error.
Investigated further more on the error and found that the "Managed Pipe Line" of the respective application pool is to be changed to "Classic" instead of "Integrated"
changed it .. Boom...
Tool bar is showing up with proper images and as well the "Export" and "Print" functions are working as expected..
Hope this helps to those in the same situation.
Again.. this is one of many many solutions on this issues.
Thank You

Hi Ravinder,
As I mentioned in my email to you, I wasn't able to reproduce the behavior your described. The images appear properly.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Exported images are screwed up

I have just exported 112 images to the desktop from within Aperture 3 the results are terrible. Each image has "blocks" of the image duplicated on a different part of the same image. These random blocks are in different places on each image. Has anyone else come across this and knows how to cure it?

I got in touch with Apple on this one and they suggested the following which seems to be working for me. This is a work around and the guy at Apple, who was very helpful, has escalated the problem to the engineers. I will post the results when I can..
1 - Click on the project you want to export.
2 - Go to Export, then click on "project as new library"(you can check the activity by going to "window - show activity" once at 100% go to 3)
3 - Quit Aperture
4 - Double-Click the exported Library
5 - Now export your files as you would normally do.
Hopefully this works for you, its frustrating but I think Apple are now on the case..
Cheers

Exported images are being exported as hidden file types

So when I export my images using the current up to date version of Aperture 2, the files were not visible until I clicked "show hidden files." This really ***** because then when I burn a CD it appears as the CD is blank.
Has this happened to anybody else? And what could cause this so I can fix it?
Any help would be great!
Thanks.

Welcome,
Where on your system are you exporting them? What export preset are you using?
Also, it would be helpful if you added your configuration info to your public profile. That way the contributors here can see what your set up is at a glance. Look at the bottom of this post for an example.
