Blurry watermarks redux

Hello,
I see there has already been discussion of the blurry watermarks problem in Aperture 3 (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2363843).
Since this is still not fixed in 3.2.1 I'm going to submit a bug report, but in the mean time I have two questions:
Has anyone found a solution (that doesn't involve using an external plugin)?
Can anyone provide any further information to help characterize the problem?
Specifically:
The problem occurs when using unscaled watermarks.
The problem only occurs when the export preset scales the image, but
The problem does not occur when the scaling is by exactly 50% (implying that the input image has dimensions divisible by two!).

Hi all, I got it, when I checked later at the fully rendered
videos they are ok, it's just in the timeline its off and the preview window, but its ok

  • Why are watermark and background images blurry in Acrobat Pro?

    I've created a header image in Illustrator that incorporates a client's logo and text in a box to use in Acrobat Pro XI (Because you can't insert an image in the Acrobat header/foot function--please let me know if I'm wrong about that). I exported the image from lllustrator as high quality print PDF and as a high quality JPG. The document I am working on is a combination of Word generated text pages and RTF data sets converted to PDFs.  When I try to insert the PDF header I've created it will not work in the data set pages as a watermark or background. It does work as a JPG, but the problem is that the box surrounding the JPG image and text loses its bottom line and the entire image looks blurry. The PDF isn't clear as I'd like it look either.  Any suggestions on how I can fix this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hello Bill,
    Thanks for the suggestion.  Unfortunately, Acrobat only accepts a limited number of file formats. I used PDF images as much as possible assuming that they'd have the highest resolution.
    The RTF pages wouldn't take a BMP. I've been searching for an plug-in or third party add-on to resolve the issue.

  • Video becomes soft and watermark blurry when exporting to iphone

    Hi guys, having a bit of an issue. I have some video i saved as apple either pro res 422 HQ or apple pro res 4x4. When i try going from that, to a .mp4 h.264 format (either in quicktime or compressor using the apple devices preset, at 700 kb) the video gets soft, and the watermark gets choppy when ever something is moving behind it. I've noticed going straight from source material things look fine. I know going from source is always going to be better, but i didn't think the difference was going to be so catastrophic. Anyone have some tips?

    New feature in QuickTime is Export to Web and it is still in "baby" step mode.
    Nice to have QuickTime writing the page code and creating the reference movie but a little more understanding by the page authors is required.
    Take a look at the data rate differences between the "cellular" and "iPhone" settings. 900kbit/sec versus 56kbit/second rate.
    Same dimensions (I suppose because I've done no tests) so the 56 kbps so that version would download very fast and look very ugly.
    If you don't need it (and we all probably don't) just remove the check mark before choosing Export. But, since it will be such a tiny file, no real harm using it (unless you get comments that your video looked very ugly when viewed "cellularly".

  • Cs6 3D axis widget showing up blurry/fuzzy

    My 3D axis widget was showing fine( solid, clear, and visible in front of the mesh I was working on), but now It has started to switch between normal and Blurry/Fuzzy( as if it is sitting behind the mesh and the whole scene). It is very difficult to see sometimes and even more s to access it. Does anyone know of this problem,  and if so, how t correct it? Also any troubleshooting advice would be helpful too.

    You probably have updated/ changed something in the driver. Undo those changes and everything will be back to normal. Otehr than that you could be working at a document size you haven't worked before or invoked some setting or tool you never used before that may trigger the behavior because it's beyond your graphics chip's limited capabilities...

  • HDR Photography blurry results with Photomatix

    I have been using photomatix pro and plug in with nice results.  All of a sudden my photos are terrible.  Very blurry and washed out and I have not changed a thing.  As i work with the photo it starts looking better then it looks great.... for a while.  As i process it is still sharp but when i save the photo it blurs while its rendering then the saved result is so bad.... anyone else going through this?  Have I hit a setting that is wrong?  The photos are sharp in raw and then terrible once completed.

    {Corrected.  Sorry.}  There are three versions available for use on a Mac.  The full version (Pro), a stripped-down version (Essentials), and the Plug-in.  Their Web site does a good job explaining the difference (and why the Lightroom plug-in is free: it's just an exporter, not a plug-in).
    Each version is available as a free trial with the only limitation being a watermark superimposed on the resulting images until a license is purchased.
    The Aperture plug-in is clever: it will create Masters of all of the selected Images (I tried a Stack of seven), but when you save your final result, all but one of the Masters are deleted, leaving you with your final edit as a new Image based on a new Master.  Functionally, you select Images recorded at different exposure settings, edit them with the Photomatix Aperture plug-in, and you end up with one "combined" new Image.
    For some reason the "add keyword" function did not work for me.
    My standard workflow for things like this is to Stack all Images that will be used to create a new photo, apply a color label (I use Yellow), then move the newly created photo to the head of the stack and use my regular color-coding to indicate the degree of development.  By "things like this" I mean any set of bracketed photographs, whether for HDR, panorama stitching, focus-stacking, or the like.
    All you need is one of the three versions of the Photomatix program, and some bracketed-by-exposure photos.  Give it a whirl.
    Here's a quick and dirty test (most over- and under-exposed images from a stack of seven, and the HDR version returned from Photomatix using mostly default settings):  (click for larger)
    Message was edited by: Kirby Krieger -- there are three versions for the Mac, not just two.  Sorry.

  • Watermarks are Unsharp in LR5

    Hi everybody,
    I'm getting completely crazy about my watermarks beeing unsharp on my photo's.
    I'm using .png files for watermarking.  I have tried multiple techniques as having a document as large as the picture,...
    PLease help me
    B.V.

    Hi,
    Thank you for your answer.
    The size of my watermark is 2993 pixels wide.
    When I edit the watermark, if I click on the size cursor, the watermark is sharp.  When I click on other settings or export photos, it becomes unsharp.
    Here are two printscreens of the sharp and unsharp .
    The one on the right look a little bit blurry, and that's the output watermark...
    The watermark is originally 2993 X 488 at 118 pixels per cm (i'm european)
    The one in the two examples above is huge 12000 X... at 600 p/cm
    Any ideas?

  • Blurry text when exporting PDF to jpeg or png

    Hello. Has anyone had a similar problem and found a way to deal with it as this?
    I get a PDF from someone in marketing and need to convert it to an image and resize so it can be emailed as a newsletter/bulletin. They want the entire thing to be an image.
    In Acrobat I export to jpg or png, then resize to 800 px wide (in photoshop). Sometimes this comes out alright. Usually some part of the text gets very blurry - usu. as distorted cloudiness in the background color or whitespace around the text.
    I'm much more a coder than a graphics person, but I need to learn if i can make this look good for them. Thanks in advance if you have any ideas.

    Not sure about Acrobat Pro 8, but in Acrobat Pro 9 (not Extended) you can Export>Image>Multiple Choice: JPEG, JPEG2000, PNG, TIFF.  I used JPEG and under the options in the export dialog box, leave the filename as is to coincide with the PDF filename and then choose Maximum Resolution under File Settings: Grayscale (JPEG, Quality:Maximum); Color (JPEG, Quality:Maximum) . . . skip down to Conversion Colorspace: Determine Automatically and Resolution choose 600pixels/inch for a letter size document.  This will result in a file size of 1.3MB per JPEG image if there is not a lot of information on the page.  I chose a simple header, footer with page numbering, and 5 lines of Lorem Ipsum text.  600dpi is overkill, you can go for 300dpi and still result in a decent image that will be able to be printed on a laser photocopier that is connected to a production computer.  Obviously if you are printing to a laser printer or a high quality inkjet 300dpi will suffice as well for a letter sized document.  But I have been told that 300dpi is not a standard rule of thumb and you must obtain specs from your printer since he/she can calculate by very strict rules the dpi you need for your content.  It depends on whether you have background images such as watermarks and also if your text body contains line-art.

  • Watermark quality is terrible - LR5

    I am finding that the quality of the watermarks is absolutely terrible! On select few images, the watermark (logo) is sharp and as should be ... however, on others, it's blurry!
    My logo (watermark) is a 1000x1000px PNG
    I'm exporting using JPG (100% quality) and resizing it to 1000px long-edge.
    Anyone else experiencing this?

  • How do I add a signature/watermark to my pictures without using Digimark?

    I want to add my name on my pictures but I don't need to track them or follow them. If someone edits my name out oh well. I just want it for when I put it on the internet or give it to my friends and family.

  • ITunes 10.6 store blurry/fuzzy text?

    I am using Windows 7 X64 SP1 with the latest updates from Microsoft.
    I am currently using a Nvidia GTX 460 graphics card, with the latest Nvidia drivers.
    I have tried repeatedly to reset iTunes store cache, emptied Windows temp files, does repair options on both iTunes as well as Quicktime.
    I have also tried resetting both ClearType (including trying it turned off completely), and reset video card driver settings.
    I have tried to re-install both iTunes and Quicktime. I even uninstalled iCloud, and Safari. Still no effective change or improvement in any of those cases.
    Yet, the problem still remains. Many times when I try to browse the iTunes store, the text is very blurry and fuzzy and difficult to read. Sometimes the text becomes completely unreadable.
    Anyone else have similar experiences?
    Anyone know of a workaround, or should I just delete both iTunes and quicktime, and go back to iTunes 10.5 until their is a fix? It all started with the latest iTunes update that supposedly changes how it displays artwork and things. I can't tell any real difference between 10.5 and 10.6 in the case of artwork, but the display of text is getting very frustrating.

    Ha! Issue solved. The track not showing the arrows was a PDF in iTunes. All is well.

  • Printing a PDF created in Indesign results in blurry text.

    Hello All,
    I am in need of assistance.
    I have created a flyer for one of my companies products in In-design.
    When I print the project directly form In-design the print looks great and the text is nice and crisp.
    However, when I export the project to a "Press Quality" PDF, and print it the text comes our blurry and "dirty"
    I have been trying to fix this for 2 days now with no luck.
    I have tried multiple different setting during the export to PDF form In-design, all resulting in the same issue.
    What is strange is when I print the PDF in black and white the text look just as good as if it were printed directly from In-design in colour.
    I looked around online and found allot of posts regarding this issue but no definitive results.
    I have also checked the colour of the text and it is 100%K.

    What color is the text?
    Can you show some screen shots?

  • Blurry Photos in Photo gallery and Interactive image widget--(iBooks Author)

    The pictures that I put in my photogallery and in my interactive image widget were at first clear and would get bigger when I tapped on them (in preview mode on my iPad), and then all of the sudden, they all are blurry, and now when I tap on them, they don't get bigger/zoom! How do I fix this??

    The iBook is about 80 pages, and there is an average of one widget per page, sometimes 2. There are a few galleries in which there are more than one picture, but many of them are simply with one picture (because this is the only way to make it get bigger when you tap on it when on the iPad). For the Interactive Image widgets, I took a screenshot of a google maps route, and then focused on different stops to show directions on my iBook. I just redid all of the photo galleries that were blurry, and they are fixed now (no longer blurry). BUT the interactive images are still blurry....maybe I just need to go back and redo them?

  • Trying to create a brush to watermark my photos. HELP!!

    So, Im trying to create a brush to watermark my photographs, but the 'define brush preset' isnt clickable, but it is clickable with any other photo i try it with. What am i doing wrong? can someone please help me? It's quite frustrating.

    Haw large in Pixels is the image?
    And quite frankly I would recommend creating a Path and using »Embed Path« instead of a Brush as Actions that include Paths can be more easily transferred without the risk of forgetting the Brushes.

  • Condtions on Watermark in RTF template

    How to use the conditions on watermark in RTF template.
    How to display the Instances names on back ground of the RTF template.If it is DEV instance it should display as "This is DEV Document",if it is TST instance it should display as "This is TST Document".
    For this I am using the water mark.I have written the condition on watermark text field.
    <?if: INSTANCE_NAME!='PROD'?>This is DEV Document <?end if?>
    In the above statement is displaying as 'This is DEV Document' on DEV instance.But if I move the same code into PROD instance it is displaying the same message.(Actually on PROD it should not display the message)
    I think this condition is not working.(I think text message is displaying as it is.)
    Please any body help/suggest/guide me to resolve this issue.
    Thanks & Regards,

    check the xml file and see if instance name is populated correctly.
    for testing purpose try the reverse way around and print only if the instance_name = 'DEV'

  • Watermark on display

    My son has had his Ipod for about 3 weeks. He swears he did not get it wet but it has a watermark covering 1/3 of the screen. Kind of like an oil goo behind the display. Anybody else experience or hear of this?

    No, the only time of heard of anything similar is when somebody dropped theirs in a river. :/
    And Apple does not repair 'mistreated' iPods. They only repair manufacturer issues. You could try checking ipodresq.com for repair costs, if you're interested...
    Good luck!
