Converting documents to JPEGs for bluetooth printing

When I use Preview to convert a PDF to a JPEG, it drastically shrinks the size of the text in the document. Is there any way to convert my Word documents to a JPEG without changing the size of the print? These Epson bluetooth adapters are extremely limited in their file formats, and I can only print a JPEG.

Trust me, it will not support a PDF or Word document format. Their website says that it will, but the tech department admits that there is a hardware limitation. The goons at Epson returns made me speak with tech a second time even though it was documented in my "case file" that the first tech said I would not be able to print a text document with their bluetooth product. I have now come to the conclusion that I need to upgrade to a real wireless printer after I return this Epson.

Virtual Port for Bluetooth Printer not being created

I am attempting to install a bluetooth printer (Zebra RW-420) on a Windows 7 Professional 32-bit machine. This works fine the first time, but when I uninstall & unpair it and then re-pair it, the device gets set up on a new virtual com serial port. At this
point, I can not install the printer itself, as the print dialog does not show the com port in the list. I have tried and can NOT reproduce this on two other machines, one running Windows 7 64-bit and one running windows 8.1 64bit. Could this be a bug in Windows
7 Professional 32-bit?
My steps:
1) Click "Add a device"
2) Click "Printer", click "Next".
3) Enter "0000" pin. Click "Next".
4) Bubble from Tray area says "Standard Serial over Bluetooth link (COM4)"
5) Add Printer dialog OR Run "cmd", enter "cscript C:\Windows\System32\Printing_Admin_Scripts\en-US\prnmngr.vbs -a -p "ZDesigner RW 420" -m "ZDesigner RW 420" -r COM4:"
6) Added printer "ZDesigner RW 420"
7) Print a test page. (Ensures that the next port will show up on a new port.)
7) Remove printer "ZDesigner RW 420"
8) Remove bluetooth device.
9) Repeat steps 1 through 3.
10) Bubble from Tray area says "Standard Serial over Bluetooth link (COM8)"
11) Click "Add Printer" (can't get past port selection screen, as port doesn't show up in list.) OR Run "cmd", enter "cscript C:\Windows\System32\Printing_Admin_Scripts\en-US\prnmngr.vbs -a -p "ZDesigner RW 420" -m "ZDesigner
RW 420" -r COM8:"
12) "Unable to add printer ZDesigner RW 420 Error 0x80041001 Generic failure
Operation PutInstance
Provider Win32 Provider
Description The specified port is unknown.
Win32 error code 1796"

Hi,
You can change the com port to see if it works:

How can I in DETAIL export photos in TIFF instead of Jpeg for large prints? LR5

I want to blow up some prints into large formats.... How can I export in TIFF instead of Jpeg in LR5?

I think Jao's right about pointing you at some beginners' guidance, but there's precious little "detail" invloved in the process, so:

Help converting tiffs to jpegs

After processing raw images in Elements 8 and saving as tiffs, I find that I need to convert the images to jpegs for commercial printing. How do I acomplish that?

In the Organizer, File->Export->As New File
In the Editor, open the .tiff and then File->Save As and select JPG
In this scenario, there is really no need to save a processed RAW as a TIFF, you can leave it as RAW and save a step (click on "Done" in the RAW editor)

How to specify multiple device capabilities for Bluetooth (Windows Runtime apps)

I am having problems converting raw files to jpeg for printing. I am using 90 quality, 300 resolutiong, srgb, no sharpening and no resizing. when u print to meijer the pic are a little grainy. can soneone pkease helo me understand what settings to use?

When I take my cd to meijer to print the pic are a little grainy. Not as crisp as they look on the computer. When I convert raw to jpeg I am using 90 quality 300 resolution, no resizing no sharpening, srgb. Can someone please help me understand what setting to use for printing. I want to be able to out my pic ok on a cd and take them to get prints.

I am new to this so I am not sure what the file size is since I'm not resizing it.
The question asked about exported image size (height and width) in pixels, not file size. Your operating system can tell you, or if you import the exported image into Lightroom, then Lightroom can tell you in the Metadata Panel, set the dropdown to EXIF.
I am printing a 5x7. I know I have tried to print with long edge set at 1024 and set to 300 ppi and had the same result with the grainy ness.
If the exported file has a long edge of 1024, then you did resize the image, there no other way to turn a RAW in to a JPG with long edge 1024. In any event, 1024 pixels is probably not large enough to fill 7 inches, that's really 1024/7=146 pixels per inch (rounded-off), and could be the cause of the "graininess" that you see, although I would use the word "pixelization" to describe what you see. So I'm not sure we are talking about the same thing, but let's go with it for now.
The solution depends on your answer to the original question, and probably depends on a clarification of how you got the image to 1024 on the long edge even though you claim you didn't resize it.

Converting Images to CMYK for Print Publication

When in my workflow should I be converting images to CMYK for print publication?
Currently, I shoot RAW photographs with my DSLR in Adobe RGB, import the images into Photoshop for manipulation and then convert the final, sized image to CMYK before placing it in my Indesign document. Before going to print, I convert my files to PDF using the [PDF/X-1a:2001] preset. I use a calibrated system with a profile set for my monitor.
Since many of my pictures have shades of green, I'm often disappointed with the conversion to CMYK because I lose saturation and brightness. Am I doing anything wrong? Is there a better way of preserving the quality of colour in my images when going to a commercial printer?

To see in InDesign what color shifts will occur, use View=>Proof Colors.
I would also recommend View=>Overprint Preview.
Yes there are color shifts when converting RGB to CMYK, but those are due to the fact that the gamut of CMYK is significantly less than AdobeRGB or even sRGB. The same color shifts going to CMYK will occur whether you convert the image in Photoshop or in InDesign during PDF export or at the RIP.
Keeping the color in ICC color managed RGB has the advantage that last minute changes can be made as to what CMYK printing conditions are used, i.e. all CMYK is not the same. Furthermore, if you convert RGB to CMYK early in the workflow, you lose the ability to maintain the color gamut for display of the PDF as well as for printing to high fidelity color devices, i.e., offset or digital (especially inkjet) devices that have extra colorants such as light cyan, light magenta, orange, and/or green to dramatically expand the gamut. Once you lose the gamut in your imagery via conversion to CMYK, you can't go back.

I want to set default printer settings to be used only for a specific type of application, certain documents. All other print jobs should use a different default setting for the printer.

I am printing a specific document from a web based application. This document need to be printed in landscape. So I would like to set the default settings for this specific printer to landscape. But for all other printers it should be portrait. But this does not seem to work. The browser picks the settings from the standard/default printer and uses this for all print jobs.

Color Shift in document being prepared for printer

This is about a book cover design being prepared to send to printer. It was on the back burner for a year. Synchronised color settings in Adobe Bridge to North American Prepress 2. Cleaning up palette (added unnamed colors and threw out unused ones). Converted all colors in palette to CMYK. A placed photo from Photoshop remains in RGB.
Two color warning dialog boxes have kept popping up:
"The RGB settings in this document are different than your current application color settings."
"The CMYK settings in this document are different than your current application color settings. "
I usually don't change what I don't understand because I'm afraid of a color shift.
At one point, however, I think I did: It suggested I change the RGB setting to Adobe RGB. I think I selected Adobe Working RGB. Since this is a document with print intent, I didn't think it mattered if I changed the RGB setting. I think it was previously sRGB. Seed right -- the Adobe RGB is more appropriate for print documents, right?
To make a long story short, the client is now complaining that the new PDF is different from the PDF sent a year ago. She printed the PDF on her inkjet printer and it is different also. The colors of the document elements in the older document appear much brighter, while the photo seems more subdued. The new document, the colors of the document elements appear duller and look less saturated, while the photo seems brighter and more saturated. The client prefers the colors in the old version.
I sampled each of the colors in the old PDF and the new PDF and they are the same (with the exception of one element in the old PDF that is RGB). So I know the problem is how the software is interpreting the color values, not that the colors have changed.
How do I get back the old colors for the document, which is ready to send to the printer?
I'm ever grateful for any help I can get.

I think the reason why this question is asked often is because the FAQ entry is pretty lame and incomplete, especially for Mac users that by default have a color managed browser and by default have a screwed up rendering mechanism for untagged images.
Depending on your version of Photoshop, you can convert to sRGB before or during the Save for Web operation.

...I have been told that you are not supposed to embed the ICC profile in the document when saving for web because most monitors are untagged.
You convert to sRGB for the systems that do not fully support color management.
and...
You include the sRGB ICC profile for the systems that do support color management.
Doing both covers your bum in most situations. You may choose to omit the ICC profile if you are working on common interface graphics that do not require strict color management. The ICC profile adds a few kilobytes to the file size that are not necessary on lesser graphic elements on a web page.

HT4356 Can I print a pdf document on my iPhone to a bluetooth printer that is not AirPrint capable

I have the HP OfficeJet 100 portable printer with Bluetooth and it is NOT a model with AirPrint. From what I've found, I should be able to print a docuement using my iPhone but would need some print software. I cannot figure out what software they're talking about and cannot find anything on the HP or Apple sites.

bluetooth is just an usb cable just wireless
a driver is still required to print on a bluetooth printer
ios don't have drivers in that respect and can't of cause ever ever use windows or osx drivers
there are 2 options you have
1. if hp's free printing app in app store (assuming they have one) can do it
2. if you install netgear genie in a computer it will make all printers the computer have access to become airprint printers in the eyes of IOS of cause the computer have to be turned on when you print
even though it's netgear who make the app one is not required to use a netgear router or the likes

Image resolution for converted documents and images

We are converting documents from several different formats to PDF. We have a requirement that the images must be 300 dpi when converted. I turned off the down sampling option in PDF settings. However, the images are all coming out at 72 dpi. So I have some questions.
Is there a way to control the dpi of a converted image?
How about an image embedded in a document?
Is there any easy way to check the dpi of an image in a PDF? The only way I've found to check the image dpi is use preflight in Acrobat.

No good.
I've followed the instructions 3 times to the letter and it still opens without any mention of a password request. In fairness, its exactly the same process I followed with the Google instructions so I am at a complete loss with this one.
Maybe my Macbook is configured wrong somewhere. I'll have to take it in to the Apple Store when I can get up there and see if they can work it out.
Thanks for the assist anyway Allan, I'm sure I'll get it working one way or another
