Bevel & Emboss effect not visible in flattened image

I created a file in .psd, with several text layers to which I applied effects (fx) such as stroke, bevel & emboss, outer glow. When I flatten the image, the outer glow and stroke remain, but the bevel & emboss effect is gone. Type is a single color without the 3 dimensional effect.
I am also not able to preserve the bevel & emboss look when saving as a jpeg or a flattened .tif or .pdf. A saved .tif or .pdf with layers shows the effect just fine, but if the pdf is opened with Acrobat instead of Photoshop, the effect is not visible.
This must be a new problem, because I found a file that I created several years ago that is a flattened .tif with the bevel & emboss effect preserved.
I tried rasterizing the layer, and the type. Tried converting to 16 bit changing mode to CMYK, and multi-channel. Everything that involved merging layers lost the bevel & emboss effect.
Any ideas on what I can do?
Thank you for the help!

Hi Trevor,
Thank you for the help. That didn't do it, either.
I did figure it out, though. My problem was that I was making a very large image (36" x 28"), and was viewing it fit to the computer screen size. What I needed to do was view actual pixels and tune up the layer style at that size.
All is well, and I sure learned a lot!

  • Adjustment layers effects not applying when flattening image or merging layers CS6

    So about a week ago I noticed something changed with my adjustment layers. In an image I would make a selection and start using adjustment layers to edit that selection, and then once I was finished, I would merge the adjustment layers together so that I could erase outside areas where the effect was not intended. However, whenever I merged the layers, the effects would go away and the thumbnail preview by the layer title would become blank (gray and white transparent) as if there was not anything on the layer. I messed around and I reset Photoshop, and then I thought the layers were fixed. They were somewhat fixed, except I've started having trouble again. Now I'm having difficulty editing this one image i'm on. It's a portrait with a photoshop-created red mask going around eyes, and I used the dissolve layer effect on the original mask creation which was black at first. Then I selected that selection and made more layers editing the hue, saturation, brightness/contrast, and exposure.
    I tried to save the image as a jpeg, and the effects were messed up. The hue and all other adjustment layers seemingly applied, except the dissolve effect does not show up at all. So I tried to fix it manually. I flattened the image first with intention to then save it as a jpeg, but as soon as I flattened the image, again the dissolve effect was not applied. Then I tried to merge the layers, and yet again, the dissolve effect was not showing up. It shows up fine in PSD form, something's wrong with the conversion process. Please don't be mean to me. I'm not great at photoshop, I'm not saying that I am or claiming to be a pro or anything I just want help from people who actually get it. I have CS6 and use a Macbook Pro.

    I stopped even trying to read this append. For is seems very complex and overwhelmed my little mind. Please consider including some screen captures showing your Photoshop window with your document that your writing about open and the layer palette shows the structure of the document. For me examples and screen capture of the steps involves involved would be very helpful.

  • What is the difference between merge down, merge visible, and flatten image?

    Hello, what is the difference between merge down, merge visible, and flatten image?

    Hi there,
      Merge Down combines the layer below the currently selected layer and the selected layer together into one singular layer. The layer name will change to the name of the layer below the selected layer. In the screenshot below, I chose to Merge Down from the layer "Circle Top". As you can see, afterward I have a new layer named "Circle Below" that has both layers combined.
      Merge Visible will merge all visible layers into one singular layer. Merge Visible will ignore any layer that has it's visibility toggled to "Off".  In the example below, I have 4 layers, with the layer "Circle Below"'s visibilty set to "Off". After I choose Merge Visible, all of the layers are combined excluding "Circle Below".
      Flatten Image will combine all of the layers into one "flattened" image or layer. You will be prompted to choose whether or not to discard hidden layers before doing so. If you choose "Ok" to discard hidden layers, Photoshop will ignore any layer with it's visibility toggled to "Off". If you choose "Cancel", Photoshop will cancel the flattening process. If you want the hidden layer included in the flattened image, you will have to toggle it's visibility to "On". The following screenshot is what a flattened image's layer pallete looks like:
      I hope this helps! If you need further clarification on this let me know! : )

  • Images Not Visible but Loading within Spry

    I've built out a site using Spry numerous times and never had
    any problems. But the below site I'm having issues with in that it
    works fine in Safari but the images load within the Spry region set
    (div id="mainContent") but are not visible. The images are
    definately there as they can be viewed in a seperate window or
    downloaded to the desktop.
    w/w/w/./sl/im/press/./com (ignore / for domain name)
    I've tried commenting out various elements in the css and
    html and nothing seems to remedy this problem. Any help would be
    super appreciated as I'm super stuck on this! The images don't load
    in Firefox or Explorer. Thanks!

    Hi bkerkay,
    first try a rebuild of the library.
    Try this:
    Before doing a rebuild make sure iPhoto's trash bin is emptied. You can do this by control clicking on the trash bin, or from the menu bar under iPhoto.
    Close iPhoto
    Duplicate the iPhoto Library folder
    Drag the duplicate to the desktop (hopefully you have enough room on your hard drive for the duplicate.)
    Launch iPhoto holding down the Command and Option keys until you see the rebuild options screen.
    Choose the first three options. If you were missing photos in your library, also choose the last option. Be advised that you will get a roll of orphaned photos and it might be quite huge. Most of them will already be in your iPhoto library, but use caution when deleting anything from this roll until you are sure the photos are still in your library in another place. It might be a good idea to share/export this roll of photos just in case you need to import them again.
    Back to the rebuild, depending on the size of your library it might take some time. When it is done, hopefully your photos will be there.
    You might see some unexpected results as I did when I did a rebuild. Photos had been moved to wrong dates, video clips had lost their duration info and some were even orphaned from the jpg pointer file. It took me some time to straighten it out again.
    This is the reason to make a duplicate before you rebuild, in case you do not like the result. If you don't like the result, close iPhoto, then delete the rebuilt library and drag the duplicate back into the Pictures folder making sure the name is iPhoto Library. Launch iPhoto and it should open the library in the Pictures folder.
    iPhoto 4 or later: Rebuilding the iPhoto Library
    Get back with results.

  • Convert Bevel and Emboss Effect into Separate Layers

    I was following a tutorial for making paint drips at http://www.planetphotoshop.com/dripping-color.html.
    I am not sure which version of Photoshop was being used in the video. Maybe CS3 or 4? It looks like the video was created in 2008? Towards the end of tutorial (about the last 1/4), he converts the Bevel and Emboss effect into separate layers in order to delete the effect from the top and sides of the image. I can't seem to locate the "Create Layers" option when I control+mouse click on the layer. Is the "Create Layers" listed some place else or is there another way to remove the Bevel and Emboss effects from the top and sides only?

    Layer > Layer Style > Create Layers
    Which version do you work with?

  • Fill Image not visible with iOS (ipad/iphone)

    Hi
    I created a website with Adobe Muse and I have an issue when surfing with ipad or iphone.
    When you have a coloured rectangle and add a fill image to it, it's perfectly visible with any type of browser on a desktop pc.
    Yet, when using iOS7 the image is not shown, I only see the coloured rectangle.
    This issue only concurs when I use parallax layers. The moment I add a movement to the image, it's not visible on ipad.
    What I exactly do:
    image fill: adapt to fill (in dutch: aanpassen aan vulling) and centered
    movement: start movement up and right both on 0. after movement: up and right both on 0. This way I can create a parallax effect.
    You can look at the example: http://balratmort.businesscatalyst.com
    There are 4 image's not shown.
    Strange thing: the first image with the brazilian flag has the same settings as the others, and the image is visible!
    Could someone please help me in this?

    I found the solution/error!
    my main position in the movement tab was set to 0px.
    So the movement starts when i'm at the top of the page.
    when i reach the image it's already scrolled out of focus.
    I need to set this to the pixel where my rectangle starts, not 0px.
    and that's why the first image with the brazil flag, worked correctly!
    I hope it's clear, since my muse is dutch, not english.

  • After Effects are not visible when exporting in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    I have made a simple name/title bar for an interview video, using Adobe After Effects. When i import the composition to Premiere Pro it's visible in the preview window BUT; when I render the video in Premiere Pro the After Effects clip is not visible anymore. AND  when i export the complete sequence to a .wmv file, the After Effects clip is not visible either.
    I'm not that much of an expert in Premiere Pro or After Effetcs, so hopefully this can easily be solved.
    What is it that i'm doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!

    The names are the same, but the programs are very different... CS4 is 32bit, CS5 and later is completely rewritten to be 64bit
    So, there is a different forum for CS4 and earlier http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premierepro_previous?view=all

  • SP 2010 Publishing - Rollup and Page Images not visible when entering page edit mode

    All:
    Hello, I have an odd issue recently appearing after installation of FEB 2013 CU install. When users select to Edit a Publishing Page the Rollup Image and also Page Image(Article Page Layout) are not visible. Only the "Click here to insert Image from
    SharePoint" link is visible.
    The issue has be confirmed in 5 servers across two farms
    DEV, QA, and PROD on client recently updated
    DEV and PROD in a completely separate client farm
    I have confirmed the issue does not exist in two separate farms running April 2012 CU. In both of those environments the image appears with issue even in Edit page mode.
    In the farms where the issue exists you can click the insert image link and simply hit OK to see the image again. An easy enough work around for tech savvy but my client's content admins are very confused/frustrated by.
    Is this a bug? I have confirmed in two separate farms including brand new web applications using out of the box publishing site templates.

    Hi.
    We have been facing the same issue in a 2013-environment (SP1), but in this case an upgraded 2010 Solution, which still runs in 2010-mode. Because of this, SharePoint still use resource-files in the 14-hive (as we have not performed an upgrade of Master
    Pages etc.) The problem is also reproduced on a clean 2010 Site Collection in the same 2013-environment.
    I have managed to find the cause of the problem (at least in our environment), and that is that as long as the selected picture/image has
    not defined an "AltText"/"Alternate Text" the problem seems to occur.
    In other words, try to define an Alternate Text and click OK in the "Edit Image Properties" Dialog.
    I don't know if this may be the case for everyone else, but give it a try.
    From this, I've further discovered (after hours of js-debugging) that there is a minor change (from 2010 to 2013) in a js-file called "SelectorControls.js" which is responsible for updating the various controls used in Page Layouts etc.
    The problem exist in a method called ASO_UpdateButtonsAndPanels(), which checks whether the Image Control in question has content or not (Url). The local variable "hasContent" is then determined of an if statement, if(this.AssetData.ManageLinkDisplayText)
    which in 2010 (14-hive) seems to be "true" regardless whether the Control is of type Image or Hyperlink. Further the code checks for AssetText (Alternate Text) which on an Image may be left empty.
    In 2013 (15-hive) however, this if statement has been changed to, if(this.SelectorType==ConstLinkSelectorType), which clearly states "Image" or "Link" depending on the type of control.
    I don't know if this is the cause of the problem in 2013, but in 2010 it seems to be exactly that.
    Pending a solution from Microsoft, we have modified SelectorControls.js to overcome this issue until the customer decides to do a Visual Upgrade to 2013.
    This is by all means not a supported nor a a permanent solution to the problem, as future Hotfixes, Service Pack etc. may "reset" our fix.
    Below is a copy of the working solution:
    function ASO_UpdateButtonsAndPanels()
    {ULSuBa:;
    var hasContent=!!this.AssetData.AssetUrl;
    //SharePoint 2010: ManageLinkDisplayText is always "True"
    //var hasContent=!!this.AssetData.AssetUrl;
    //if(this.AssetData.ManageLinkDisplayText)
    //hasContent=hasContent && !!this.AssetData.AssetText;
    //SharePoint 2013
    //var a=!!this.AssetData.AssetUrl;
    //if(this.SelectorType==ConstLinkSelectorType) a = a && !!this.AssetData.AssetText;
    //Fix for preventing existing selected image to disappear when saving page and/or editing a page with existing image.
    if(this.SelectorType!=ConstImageSelectorType)
    if(this.AssetData.ManageLinkDisplayText)
    hasContent=hasContent && !!this.AssetData.AssetText;
    if( hasContent )
    if (this.ClearAssetButton !=null)
    this.ClearAssetButton.EnableButton();
    this.GetAssetSelectedPanel().style.display="inline";
    this.GetEmptyPanel().style.display="none";
    else
    if (this.ClearAssetButton !=null)
    this.ClearAssetButton.DisableButton();
    this.GetAssetSelectedPanel().style.display="none";
    this.GetEmptyPanel().style.display="inline";
    I hope this helps anyone else struggling with the same problem.
    Thanks!

  • E5 memory card images and videos are not visible i...

    am using nokia e5,it was working all well but few days before i tranferred files from laptop to my cell(images) using Mass Storage option by data cable.soon after that images and videos saved in memory card is not visible on phone.test mesgs and music files are visible but phone isnt showing my images and video files which ive recievd through bluetooth and saved in memory card.why is this so???plzzz help me am in mess cant help it

    Hi saaraaz,
    Welcome to the forum! I tried to transfer pictures via bluetooth and they were saved to gallery like they should. Please try the following actions and between them test if it works.
    Firstly please make a back up with Nokia Suite. Then type in *#7780# = soft reset, no data lost.
    If it's still the same, type in *#7370# = hard reset, the phone memory will be wiped. Restore back up. You can also try to make the back up without settings and then format and restore.
    Reinstall the software. The process is the same when updating, but at the end select "reinstall". 
    Hope you get the device working again, please let me know if this is not the case.

  • Some images are not visible

    Hi,
    I have a recordset which has 79 records with images. Report not showing last 9 images (sometime 10 images). Even I changed to display records in descending order then last 10 are visible as these images are at start, now i am unable to see
    again last 9 images, which were visible when these were at start.

    Hi Mahendra,
    According to your description that you always go the last ten record not display in the report, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can't reproduce the issue, please try to answer and check the information according to the question below to help us better analysis about the issue:
    Please Execute the query in the query designer to see if you can get all the 79 records.
    How many columns in the reports? Did the field of the image comes from Database - select a row that contains the image from a database table?
    So, you got the entire 10 rows with multiple columns not shown in the report,right?
    As
    yosedesh mentioned that please make sure you have checked all the pages and you can also export the report to HTML or MHTML to see if you can see all the record display.
    I recommend you to recreate the tablix or redesign an new report the same as this to see if you still have the same issue.
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
