Converting PDF to JPEG--tiny file, not full size image.

using photoshop cs3
End result is I want a jpeg of the same size as original. here is what i do and what happens.
open pdf in photoshop; save as "jpeg"
jpeg shrinks to an inch wide, from an original 8.5 inches.
I've tried saving with compression off, saving pdf in various formats, nothing seems to work and my jpegs always save out very tiny.
any help would be appreciated! thanks.

I opened the file I attached to my mail in Photoshop and that's when it went small. I just looked on Apple forum and found a little button on the bottom right that was compressing the file. I hit "actual size" and have fixed the problem.
It was a Mail problem, (or my problem:) not Photoshop or PDF.
Thanks for your time and response...

  • Aperture 2.1.4 problem - have thumbnail but not full-size image

    I'm relatively new at using Aperture. I have been downloading photos from my Nikon D200 into iPhoto and then modifying those photos in Aperture. This has worked fine for several months. However, after installing v 2.1.4, I can no longer access the images I've altered in Aperture, although the thumbnail images are still present at the bottom of the screen. How do I access the images previously modified in Aperture? Are they stored somewhere in iPhoto?
    I've been hesitant to download images from the camera straight into Aperture because I'm still not as proficient as I'd like with the program. For whatever reason, there are few training opportunities for Aperture here in the US....another issue.

    Thank you for trying to help me with the problem. Let me back up a bit further so that you can better understand my problem. Here are some of the problems:
    (1) I had been downloading all my pictures (Nikon D200) into iPhoto. After selecting a few that I would like to make adjustment using Aperture, then only I import versions of it into Aperture. The way I had been importing images is by going into Aperture, go to File show iPhoto, select photos by dragging them into album that I had created in Aperture. Is this the correct way of importing photos from iPhoto into Aperture?
    (2) After making adjustments in Aperture recently, the next day I went back into Aperture to see them, all the pictures in the viewer is replaced by " Unsupported Image Format". Why Aperture let me do all the adjustments if this is unsupported image format? It only tell me this, the next day after I had tried to view all the photos with adjustments that were made earlier?
    (3) Dozens of adjusted photos (versions) from my albums in Aperture had also disappeared. I had not use the vault in Aperture as yet. The question is where are all my adjusted versions being stored? My Aperture Library is shown to be empty! I thought at the very least, all my versions is stored in the Aperture Library. How do I store versions in this library?
    Yes, my workflow may seems convoluted at the moment, using iPhoto as my reference and only dealing with versions in Aperture. The reason for my madness is quite simple ( I thought), I need to understand Aperture really well before importing photos directly into it and bypass iPhoto altogether. With all the problems that I am facing with Aperture at the moment, I am not quite there yet.
    All help is greatly appreciated.

  • Applescript to convert PDF to JPEG using Preview?

    I know there's an existing script available on the internet that converts PDFs to JPEGs (it's here: http://macscripter.net/viewtopic.php?id=25350) BUT, for whatever reason, the quality, even when set to 600dpi, is crap. I get better results simply opening the PDF in Preview then saving as JPEG... even a 150dpi JPG from Preview is higher quality than a 600dpi file from this script I found...
    So, what I need help with is creating a applescript that converts PDF's to JPEGs using Preview (or whatever, as long as the quality of the JPEG is good). I have very little scripting experience so help is appreciate.
    Ideas?
    Thanks.

    One question for the  Applescripters here. The Automator action run as a shell script seems to return a list of filename aliases but the return value while looking like a list didn't behave as a list. I managed to rip it apart to get to the filepaths and the script works but it seems really kludgey . So my question is given the return of the Automator run as a do shell script what is a more correct way to handle it?

    Hi Frank--
    I tried the script you wrote and created the Automator workflow with the single action as requested, saved it to the desktop then selected it when your script's dialogue requested it. However, at that point your script game me the following error. Ideas? I did save the workflow as a workflow and I selected it directly, so I'm not sure why it thinks that the "workflow file does not exist" ? :
    error "The workflow file does not exist. 255" number -2700 from «script» to item

  • Converting PDF to CCITT Tiff files

    Hello,
    I have been given a programming task to convert PDFs into CCITT format Tiff files.
    I an new to using Acrobat and have looked at the example code and see the following code.
    JSObj.SaveAs(fullPathTIF, "com.adobe.acrobat.tiff")
    This does the conversion fine, but if greyscale or colour PDFs are converted they use a different compression type.
    Is there a way to convert the PDFs to black and white before the conversion, or forcing the conversion to the desired compression type?
    thanks
    John

    That is correct, because CCITT is only for black & white/monochrome images.
    If you wish to convert the PDF to B&W, you can do that as well via other JavaScript APIs (as documented in the SDK).

  • Can anyone tell me which product allows me to convert pdf to jpeg?

    can anyone tell me which product converts pdf to jpeg.

    Hi
    You can do this in multiple programs (photoshop, Illustrator & acrobat).
    In Acrobat just open the PDF the go to File>Export>Image>jpeg.
    In photoshop you can open the pdf the just save as .jpeg.
    In Illustrator you can open the PDF then export as a jpeg.
    Hope this helped.

  • Does the Pro package convert pdf to jpeg?

    Can I use the Pro package to convert pdf to jpeg, if so, how?  Thanks.

    Hi Troy Hopkins,
    Using Adobe Acrobat Pro, you can convert PDF files to JPEG and you can achieve this task by clicking on File -> Save As Other -> Image -> JPEG (In Acrobat XI)
    In Acrobat X, File -> Save As -> Image -> JPEG.

  • Size of imported powerpoint  presentation on screen not full size

    imported power point presentation when seen on presentation modus on screen is not full size of the screen the slides are only on small size

    PPT files always default to 720x540, and while checking that box will do the job, if you want to change the file so it's actually the correct size, you can always do that on the Document inspector (or apply a new theme to the entire file and choose 800x600 or 1024x768 as the size, it'll resize your file for you).

  • Upon opening a thumbnail to view full size image, it often spontaneously zooms to only display bottom left quarter of image.

    When double-clicking on the thumbnail image of an iPhoto album, the full size image will often spontaneously zoom to only display the bottom left quarter of the entire photo when it displays in full size. I can easily work around this by clicking on the right arrow to go to the next full size image (which will display properly) and then click on the left arrow to go back to the initial affected image (which will also then display properly). It does not do this when full-sizing all images from their thumbnails - probably less than 10% of the time; but still often enough to be a pian. I cannot find anything in the preferences which would appear to cause or correct it.
    It is a recent problem. I have been using iPhoto extensively for many years without any problems. I cannot recall for sure, but it may have started after my update to version 9.4.2.
    Using an iMac with plenty of RAM, latest version of iPhoto 11 and Mountain Lion version 10.8.2.

    What is the format of the PS photos and are there any alpha channels in them? You might try to re-edit them with PS, making some insignificant change and then saving.  See if the new edit will display properly.  Are you saving as jpgs with the Baseline format?
    I may be preaching to the choir here but this may be of interest:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • How to create ePUB with full size images/pages to adjust according to device?

    Friendly Greetings,
            I have been trying, for nigh on two months, to convert/create my 7 books that are in print into eBooks; with first publishing scheduled to be Nook, with Kindle on the eventually list. I am, sadly still working on just getting the first one published! And I could really use any assistance to get this figured out. My intent was to publish several weeks ago...now my desperation is to publish before the weather gets too warm and kids are outside most of the time...or at least no later than Easter. :0)
            First and foremost, my books are picture/poetry books for kids of all ages. They were fully designed in Photoshop, where I also created the full size images for the first eBook. I received the specifications from B&N for the various Nook devices. Under the assumption that it would be best to create the largest of the files, thus allowing smaller sized devices to adjust the page accordingly to fit and the largest would not overstretch a smaller image, I sized my pages to 1280px x 1920px at 72dpi. (now I hear 150 is standard??)
            My text is included within the image as the design is one image = one page. I included a full text only version of the story/poem at the end for those wishing to adjust text or use a voice reader. I obviously have all the original files, but for publishing they were all saved as JPGs.
            After quite a struggle and a whole lot of frustration I managed to complete the manuscript in Barnes and Noble's Nook Press Manuscript Editor. My internet is molasses and thus much of this was done in the wee hours of the morning when the rest of the time zone is asleep. I only had one page with an issue, of an extra blank line/space that was irreparable. I published, and found it was completely botched in publish, though the preview looked a-okay. Only about the top left 1/6 of each image/page was visible in either my laptop's Nook for PC or my Android Tablet's Nook App. So I agonizingly awaited another 10 hours, hoping no one would buy my book during that time, for it to be removed from sale.
            I downloaded a trial of InDesign CC, and after two weeks of not even being able to create a single new document for some screwy reason, I bought a month's subscription. So far I'm not entirely convinced of this whole Creative Cloud malarkey, especially considering...as like I said my internet is slow...it took me nearly 20 hours just download the software. (Is it really that difficult to offer disc, seriously?) After a chat and phone call I can, in theory, now use InDesign.
            I created a New Document for Digital Publishing at the aforementioned specs (1280 x 1920 px). I made the rectangle placeholders the full size of the page, and place one image per page. This usually inserted the image at about 50% and I would have to select 100% and then move as necessary in to place.
            Thus, my first question is: Is there a way to place an image at 100% without having to do that extra resizing step? Or if there is an alternative way to place the image to the full size of the page without any of those other steps that would be lovely too.
            Okay, after placing several pages/images I also selected each and went to Object Export Options and Checking the Custom Rasterization and "Resize to Text Flow".  I then exported a trial ePUB to see what it would look like. On both the PC and Tablet in landscape mode it was a far cry better than the other, but about oh a 1/3 of the bottom of each page was cut off. On the tablet I rotated to portrait and voila full page. Woohoo! But alas, I don't want to limit it.
            Is there something I am doing wrong? Did I miss a step or two somewhere so that the full image will fit on the page? I feel like I'm just about to turn the page on this thing, but it's stuck to the one after that.
            I would greatly appreciate any insight, tips, help that anyone can offer. I have run the gauntlet of Barnes and Noble...cough, cough...support and apparently I ask questions which no Nook Press rep can answer and the forums over there have no clue about InDesign. It's almost as if with all the fantastic beautiful screens out there today nobody wants picture books! How does National Geographic do it?!
            Thank you very kindly.
    In case it is necessary: My laptop uses Window 7 Pro 64-bit, InDesign CC is 64-bit and my 10.1 tablet uses Android. I can view the EPUB files in Nook for PC and Nook for Android. I also have Kindle, LumiRead, and various other apps on the tablet. I can also have someone preview the finished epub, if need, on a Mac, iPad, and/or Android phone...though I do not have any of these. Not sure who has a Nook I can look at though. Thanks again.

    Q: Is there a way to place an image at 100% without having to do that extra resizing step?
    I think here you want your images to fit in the full page size frame automatically. For this you can try the follwoing steps:
    1. Create a new doc
    2. Goto Object menu and choose Frame fitting options
    3. Select Autofit and from Fitting drowdown, select "Fit content to frame". Refer the screenshot below:
    After this you images should automatically fit in the entire page placeholder frames. Please let me know if this does not work or if the problem you are facing is different and I did not understand your problem correctly.
    Regards,

  • Web gallery full size images blurry on .mac

    My photos look great in iPhoto. But when I have iPhoto create a web gallery and sync it to .mac the full size images are quite blurry. The thumbs are fine, but the full size images look over compressed. I can't find a place to fool with image quality for these images. Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.
    -Buddy

    Buddy:
    I found that the full sized images that I synced to a web gallery in iPhoto were jpg compressed to a quality level of 9 out of 12 (as determined thru Photoshop). I do not notice any obvious degradation of image quality. At 200% enlargement I did notice some unsharpness. My files are compressed down from around 2 MB TO 840KB.
    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.

  • Generating full-size image from thumbnail using BLOB DB images

    Hi all,
    Assuming that all necessary steps were taken in other posts and tutorials to display images on a web page from BLOB objects stored in an Oracle 10g DB, how is it possible to set the size of the created images (from the servlet that creates the image file from BLOB) so that it is smaller than the actual image in the DB. the user would then have to click the image to open the full image.
    would this be done by possibly creating 2 servlets, one that displays a smaller version, and one that displays the actual image?
    i don't see how this can be done since the url property of each image is bound to the url of the servlet. If the thumbnail has a url pointing to image produced by thumbnail servlet, would i assign an action handler for clicking the image that redirects to a url given by the full size image servlet? or should i use an image hyperlink instead?
    any help is always appreciated!

    Suggest you take this one step at a time.
    1. Create a database and store your images in it. (Or write the upload mechanism if you need it).
    2. Display your full size images.
    3. Display your full size images as thumbnail size. (Performance will not be good but you'll have results.) Creator allows you to set image size independantly of the size of the underlying image.
    4. Modify the servlet you wrote in step three to optionally reduce the resolution (or quality) based on an input parameter.

  • Problems with viewing full-size images on Google...

    When I search in images, and click "see full-size image", sometimes the file will be downloaded to my hard drive as a JPG, and then Preview opens up to view it. This never used to happen...the image would always just show up on a new page in the browser.
    Does anyone know what's going on?

  • HELP! Full size image is creating a new blank page that I cannot delete.

    Hello,
    I am creating a document where each page has a full size (8.5x11) image that is set to the background. I then have text over the background image. My problem is that when I make the background image and insert another page, I get a blank page that I cannot get rid of. I have made sure that the full size image is not going over the border but it is still creating an invisable character that is a blue line with an icon at the end.
    How can I get rid of this line??
    To insert the large inage, I am creating a square shape and extending it to the edge of the document. I am then filling that shape with an image.
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thank you in advance!

  • How to show full size images from a thumbnail view?

    Hi,
    I am trying to setup a simple portfolio of projects. I have a series of 4 screen dumps of some web work I did, and they have to be greatly reduced in size so they can all fit on one page. I'd like to be able to have the user click on any of the 4 screen shots (imported png files) and then see a full size image. I know how to do this basically in plain html, but uncertain how to set this up with iWeb. Do I need to create 4 new pages with the full size images on them? Or is there an easier way.
