Apple Preview- Change DPI

Is there a way to change the DPI of a photo within Apple Preview? I could also use iPhoto. I'm trying to avoid using Photoshop as it always saves in an Adobe format.
Thanks,
Alexander

Hmmm. Sorry bout that. Perhaps there is not a default way in Preview. This may not be the route you want to go, but I use an amazing program call imagemagick (www.imagemagick.org). It has a command line interface and allows you to do nearly anything you can think of with simple commands.
For you, all you would need to do is open a terminal and type:
'convert filename.tiff -density ### filename.tiff'
Replace ### with your desired dpi and you're set. Again, sorry if this is not what you are looking for, but I just wanted to throw it out there.

  • Apple Preview: While moving/editing text boxes created by others in a PDF, font color of that text changes for some reason and I don't want it to!!

    I have a project where I've given about 10 people 50 PDF files each to mark up in red text, and send back to me.  When they send them back, I in turn need to move or edit some of the text boxes they have created in Apple Preview.  For about 8 of these 10 people, when I edit their text boxes and/or move them, Apple Preview immediately changes the text color of the red text to black, or to white.  How do I get it to stop doing this?  Is this a setting I need to have them change on their end?  Or can I fix this on my end (preferable)?
    Here is a link to such a file:
    http://www.4shared.com/dir/rlemQEcJ/_online.html
    When you try to move or edit the text "Sollazzo", it changes to black or white.  I need it to say red.  Thank you for your help!

    It doesn't go anywhere in that: that isn't a feed, it's a web page. A feed is a text file in XML format.
    Would you like to post the URL of your iTunes Store page?
    This page about podcasting includes a basic sample feed so you can see what one should look like, and at the bottom of the page is the method for redirecting iTunes to a new feed.

  • Problems with Apple Preview filled forms and compatibility with Windows?

    Anyone else having problems with Apple Preview filled out forms and compatibility with Microsoft Windows after Lion?
    I've had it happen recently with two different people, where the data I had entered on a fillable PDF form could not be seen by Microsoft Windows, but I saw my data just fine.
    I don't know what version of Adobe Acrobat they were running.
    Thanks,
    kt

    You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
    It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

  • Apple Preview and Interactive PDF Issue

    Hello all - I'm having trouble with exporting an Interactive PDF for Preview in which the content boxes align and print identical to that of Adobe Acrobat. See below for pictures. The text out of the boxes are on Apple Preview.
    Any help in the matter would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hey Grant,
    thank you so much for your effort. But I have to say that that's not the solution for my problem.
    You see my interactive features work perfectly with Adobe Reader 8. But with the Reader 10 it jsut won't work.
    I've created a pdf for you to see but I ripped it off all its former content:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/824709/Adobe%20Test.pdf
    and here's the .indd file
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/824709/Adobe%20Test.indd
    You see, I want the buttons if clicked appear in another state and show a different Picture.
    And now it even seems to work. But when I tried it again with all the content the pictures won't change anymore

  • Preview Changes

    Is there any way of previewing changes to an application (when warned by iSync) rather than just being told that X changes will be made to contacts or calendars for example.

    It is not currently possible to do this with iSync or other publicly-accessible applications. There is limited support for extracting such information using specific developer tools, which are available only to Apple developers.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Mac won't print a .pdf file, but Apple Preview will print correctly

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat Pro XI for Mac.  recently I've run into pdf files that will show the document on screen ok, show up on print preview screen ok, but when I send it to a printer I either get:
    1.  no printout... the document passes through the printer queue ok, but nothing comes out (no blank paper, nothing).  no data seems to even reach the printer/print server.  no error.  the print job basically vanishes into thin air like the job was never sent
    2.  prints out with all the characters of a text substituted with squares (again, no error. just prints squares instead of text)
    But when I print the same document using Apple's Preview program on the same machine, the file prints out fine.
    I experience this problem with two different Macs, with two different OS versions.  Again both machines will print the .pdf file fine using Apple Preview, but not with Acrobat Pro XI.
    I've searched for this problem, but no one seems to have this problem. I've tried just printing one page, etc., and no difference (won't print, or print wrong using Acrobat, but prints fine using Preview)
    the files are typically sent via e-mail from a vendor, or a web downloaded form (invoice, forms filled out.  some are secure, some are not).  and these are from multiple sources.
    Any ideas what might be the problem, and how to fix this?
    system:
    Mac Pro (early 2008) and MacBook Pro (mid-2011)
    MacOS 10.8.4 and 10.6.8 (multiple computers have this same problem)
    Acrobat Pro XI, 11.0.04
    printer: HP LaserJet 5MP (yes.. old.. but it works) via HP JetDirect + print server on  LAN

    I just found this solution on another board, I tried it  (I removed the same file listed below) and it worked for me.... 
    Safari won’t save or print PDFs: how to fix
    :: Tuesday, January 29th, 2013 @ 5:29:46 am
    :: Tags: Computers
    If Safari won’t save or print PDFs (but views them without any problems), you probably have an Adobe PDF plug-in installed. In Safari, go to Help->Installed Plug-ins and do a search for “PDF.” If you have anything with “PDF” in it other than “WebKit built-in PDF,” that is probably the culprit.
    On my computer, the problem was “AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin”. To remove it, I quit Safari, did a Spotlight search (Command-Option space) for that file name, and then dragged it to the trash. When I restarted Safari, I could print and save PDFs again. You can also manually find the plugins by going to the system “Library”  folder (the one at the root of your hard disk, not in your user folder) and looking in the “Internet Plug-Ins” folder.
    I’m on OS X 10.8.2, running Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).

  • Why can't I use PayPal with Family Sharing? Have a US Visa card but foreign address, and Apple does not seem to be able to cope with that (even though it is a multinational corporation). Could we lean on Apple to change this policy?

    Paypal for Family Sharing - Why can't I use PayPal with Family Sharing? Have a US Visa card but a foreign address, and Apple does not seem to be able to cope with that (even though it is a multinational corporation). So I set up payment with Paypal, and it worked fine. Now I want to take advantage of Family Sharing, but Apple won't allow it. Could we lean on Apple to change this policy?

    If you are not in the US then you cannot use the US store, the store's terms say that you have to be in a country to use it - if you are using the US store then you are risking having your account disabled.

  • Create an interactive pdf that works in Apple Preview (and Acrobat Reader)

    Hi,
    I've created a very large interactive document for a client in InDesign CS6, which has buttons that help the user go to various locations in the doc and back, and have only rollover states on all the buttons. The interactivity works fine in Acrobat Pro, but my client wants it to work in Apple Preview. How do I make it work in Preview? If I can also get it to work in Acrobat Reader that would be a bonus too.
    Any help would be very appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Gary

    Thanks Peter and UWE,
    Upon further testing, it appears that most of the interactivity seems to be working in Preview now, but some buttons do not show up correctly, whereas most of the others do.
    The ones that aren't showing up correctly are primarily on the main Home page. They are all rectangle buttons, with a photographic background in the button and the name of the link to the section on top of the button, like "introduction", "Product", etc. The button itself works in Preview, but the photograph placed in the button doesn't appear, all you see is the name of the the button without the image in the background.
    Any clues on how to fix this this?
    Thanks

  • Xcelsius 2008 - Unable to preview changes made in design mode

    Xcelsius 2008 - Unable to preview changes made in design mode
    I have installed Xcelsius 2008 (RTM) and also Service Pack 1 / Fix Pack 1.1.  Unfortunately, I can now not preview changes I made in design mode (but can see the change in design mode).  In addition, if I save the changes made to the Excel spreadsheet (using this as the datasource) and then exit out of the application, then go back in, the changes have not been saved?!
    I have also installed Fix Pack 1.3, but the same issues occurs.
    This is causing us issues as we have developed a number of dashboards that can no longer be updated.
    Please could someone advise?
    Many thanks,
    Neil.

    I would recommend decomposing large sets into more manageable sets.  For instance, if you have data for a very large regional district, decompose the data into smaller sets for sub-districts.
    As for a paper, I'm not sure, but the main determinant of performance is how many cells you bind to the component.  For a typical component on a typical computer, I'd recommend no more than 9000 cells.  On a weaker computer less, on a stronger computer more.

  • Apple ID: changing password by email?

    When I created my apple ID, I made up a cool but bogus email address. I later forgot my password and went to the "reset password options" page. I chose "reset by email authentication" (or something along these lines) BUT the email is bogus, what did apple do? Did they send it? I checked on the web whether there were any websites with the url I used for my fake address and there is one! I couldn't believe it but it exists and it's Russian. Now, I'm afraid that if apple sent the reset password email to my bogus email address, it might have been a real email address and might have gone to Russia somewhere :O
    Can this happen or am I just being paranoid? I read about this girl on facebook whose private messages were being sent to strangers because she didn't verify her email address and it kind got me paranoid lol http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2014/02/05/a-teen-girls-facebook-typo-le d-horrified-stranger-to-get-thousands-of-her-messages/

  • Apple preview edit menu

    I'm trying to use Apple Preview to make notations on a JPG screenshot for a website my company is designing. This used to work great. Now the edit button -- it looks like a pen -- is grayed out so I can't use it. When I click the briefcase button I see a revealed second toolbar with edit tools, but none of them seem to work correctly.

    I figured it out, but not how to delete this post! Thanks.

    First, please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are we your fellow users. iTunes Support will never respond to posts made here.
    As to your issue, confirm with your bank that they do not block access from on-line services or otherwise have restrictions on with whom a card can be used. For some company cards, such blocks can be set up. If you confirm that no such restrictions are in place, post back and we'll go from there.
