Best print quality on file export options?

Which choice within the export file format will yield me the highest quality photo print. Either from my photo printer or if I send it to a professional press? I mean the file format, not the size, I always have that at max.
thanks in advance

I think it is not so much the outpt file, but the original file format that you used to capture the picture. If you shoot in RAW, then use RAW, if you shoot JPEGs, then JPEG is probably your best option.

C4280 defaults to Best print quality in Excel

Hi,
My C4280 for some reason always defaults to best print quality in Excel - other programs are OK. I have created several short cuts with draft print quality.
I can change the setting to draft , print it in draft, close the document then open it again & it will want to print in Best quality.

Thanks Michael for your generally good advice. I actually answered my own question about setting up the highest quality print by performing the steps I outlined in the second paragraph of my initial post. After printing a couple of samples and studying the results with a loupe, I found saving the TIFFs with Zip compression as opposed to the maximum quality JPEG. files was the way to go although almost no one would know the difference without intense scrutiny. Honestly I'd prefer Adobe offer LZW instead of Zip as the option for how Acrobat deals with TIFF files but perhaps there's a technical reason which would preclude that option.

I make videos using my go pro hd camera, but when i export it only half of my 3 min video shows up with the audio playing in the background, plus when i try to select the quality in the export options it won't let me select 720p or 1080p?????? help!!!

What you could do now is break up your video into smaller parts and render them out, then assemble them again as a whole.
I know this is not the best fix, but it might work.
You can duplicate an edit in the main screen, then delete the last bits and export,
do the same for the other half.
Then import the two bits (or more if you need) in a new edit.
Out of curiosity, can you post what format the video is in?
Copy a video straight from the camera to your computer.
Open it in Quicktime player, and with out playing type Apple + i
or Control + i for PCs
It should tell you lots of info about the video, and might help us to see what is wrong.
This is what it looks like:

CS5 Best print quality using "Image" options ?

Hi.
I have recently upgraded CS5 from 32 bit to 64 using Windows 7. I am trying to maximise print qualty. But notice that "Image" menu only offers 8,16 and 32 bit. The menu is preselected to 8 bit (? Improted picture qualtiy) and if I reselect to 32 bit, I lose the option to print. Can you help me please? Nai

This has nothing to do with print quality. You seriously need to read the help and do a generic web search on print stuff...

Print quality poor when exporting tiff from Ai

I recently sent an Illustrator file to FedEx Office to be printed and it just didn't look great. What do I need to fix (other than getting a real printing company! ) in order to get a higher print quality?
This is what I did:
Created a file in Illustrator then exported it as a tiff. (I needed it cropped and didn't like what I got by cropping it using the Pathfinder steps/options.)
Placed the tiff file in a new Illustrator file.
Printed it as a pdf.
The pdf version of my illustration was horrid, so I had them print it from the Illustrator file. It was considerably better, but still had diagonal stripes (gradient) and vertical stripes (printing).
How can I remedy this problem?

Clipping Mask
Draw a closed path over the objects you want to maswk or crop, in this case probably a rectangle using the rectangle tool.
then select all the objects and the shape to be used as a mask.
then go to Object>Clipping Mask>Make
BTW Scott's answer shouldbe marked as the answer.

Best high quality format to export from final cut for DVD

What is the best format to export in final cut to put onto a DVD?
Mostly its footage from VHS so it doesnt have to be awesome but need some tips
cheers

You can't get any better than what your Sequence settings were in FCP. Export a self-contained or reference movie (File->Export->QuickTime Movie) from FCP. Do NOT recompress all frames, but do include DVD-SP markers (if any).
Bring the resulting file into Compressor and choose the appropriate DVD preset. You can duplicate, then modify a preset if needed.
You'll have two files from Compressor: an MPEG-2 video file (.m2v) and a Dolby Digital audio file (.ac3).
Import those two files into DVD-SP for authoring and burning.

Missing WYSIWYG File Export option

Hello,
I'm running a trial version of Photoshop CS6 Extended and can't find the WYSIWYG plug-in for my Matrox device which I think I should be able to access via File>Export.
I've reinstalled the drivers for my device so it shouldn't be that.
Could it be that this feature isn't supported in trial versions?
Any help appreciated

I understand that it is difficult to determine which forum to post in since there are so many. This particular forum (sharing and storage) was created to help those transitioning from Photoshop.com to Adobe Revel. I am moving your post to the correct forum so that it can get proper attention.
I'll put this posting in the photoshop community so the experts there can help you.

Best possible quality movie file?

I have a sequence that is DV Pal and my FCP is version 6.0.4
I need to render out with best quality as possible, what´s the best settings to get the best possible quality?
Thanks

Export as QT movie, same settings, self-contained.
That's the best you can do to preserve best quality and avoid any compression steps.

PSE 11 print quality and picture package options

I've been using PSE 5 since 2006, and figured it's time to check out what's new under the sun. I downloaded the PSE 11 trial version, whose editing function offers slightly better enhanced photos than PSE 5, but seems to fall short in two areas of importance to me: 1) When using the highest quality print settings, PSE 11 prints photos more quickly, but of lower quality than PSE 5. 2) PSE 5's "print multiple photos" feature lets me print an 8 X 10 photo with my choice of borders, whereas PSE 11's "picture package" feature seems to allow prints with choice of borders only up to 5 X 7. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I'll just keep my trusty PSE 5. Thanks for any assistance you're able to provide. Aloha, Peter

Yes I did restart PSE7.
but that did not help
I also tried to remove all the present llayout-text files except my own, then there was NOTHING to chose from!
So her is one of the layout text file that I use with PSE2 and it is working, when I select paper size A4
C 21 21
A4 (3) 10.5 10.5 cm
0 0 10.5 10.5
10.5 5.2 10.5 10.5
0 10.5 10.5 10.5
That txt file did not show in the dropdown select layout,(setting paper size A4 or Letter)
I tried the following txt file, setting papersize Letter
with the same result
I 8.5 11.0
Letter (3) 10.5x10.5 cm
0 0 4.1 4.1
4.1 2.0 4.1 4.1
0 4.1 4.1 4.1
Since there are no (error) messages I do not understand the criteria to meet for showing this layout in the select dropdown list.

You need to split your data and create (at least 5) worksheet targets.
For example if you have a ROW_NUMBER column you can use for instance a
Conditional Split for something like:
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 0 for Case 1 (excel 1)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 1 for Case 2 (excel 2)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 2 for Case 3 (excel 3)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 3 for Case 4 (excel 4)
ROW_NUMBER % 5 == 4 for Case 5 (excel 5)

Help! Handling Fonts for Best Print Quality

In a PS file, what is the best way to handle fonts, leave them as font or rasterize, before flatening and making PDF?

Both InDesign and Illustrator are much better choices for business cards than Photoshop.

What export options in Quicktime Pro or Final Cut Pro should I select to export HDV video in .MOV files to highest quality Windows-compatible files?

I have some HDV video files imported through iMovie to .MOV files with Apple Intermediate Codec.
I need to convert these to Windows compatible video files of the highest possible ( least loss) quality. What export options in Final Cut Pro or in Quicktime Pro should I select? The codex in the converted files must not be Apple Intermediate Codec, for which there is no Windows version.

Okay, I read the whole Flip4Mac website.
Flip4Mac is an application for Apple computers.
Perhaps my question was unclear. When I posed it I was thinking of asking somebody with an Apple shop to do the conversion for me, and wanted advice on settings for his QUicktime Pro /Final Cut Pro that would produce the highest quality Windows -compatible files.
The Windows version of Quicktime will not play Quicktime files with Apple Intermediate Codec. You get black screen video, although the audio does come through.
So here's what I need: I need a Windows application that will transcode Quicktime files in Apple Intermediate Codec, with no loss or very little loss, to WIndows-compatible files. All Windows, all the time. Thank you.

File Export is grayed out when Photo Book selected - worked yesterday

I have been assembling a Photo book from various scanned photos. In order to share a preview before send it of to be printed, I used the File>Export option to produce a Quicktime movie. It worked very well but today I wanted to change some of the movie settings.
When I tried to repeat the exercise, I found that the File>Export option is now grayed out and I cannot access it. The options to Share to web and iDVD are still available and I can print to PDF.
I cannot think of anything that has changed since yesterday. I tried a reboot but it made no difference.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Dave

David:
Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist. What are you trying to export, the book? That option is not available from the book mode. Only from albums, slideshows or the main library. Did you do the export from a slideshow you made of the photos used in the book?
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Setting print quality in 3.0 starter

I am running the PhotoAlbum 3.0 starter edition. When I try to print on my HP Photosmart 7660 printer I set the preferences to "best" print quality but when it prints the printer window says "normal". Therefor I'm not getting the quality prints I want. Hp says its the software. Tryed downloading the software again but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

I've got the same problem with PhotoAlbum 3.0 starter edition and my HP 1200 printer. Can't get it to print in Best Quality mode. Please post your solution if you find one.
Thanks
