Copying & pasting changes dimension of image if it is not 72 dpi

I have Macs since the Mac 512ke. Never I had such a problem, that copying and pasting doesn't work correctly.
I scan with 300 dpi grayscale. If I copy a selection of this scanned image and paste it to pages 4.0.3, the size of the image is enlarged.
Only if I copy and paste images of 72 dpi, the size stays correct at the same dimension.
If I copy and paste to word, it works.
Any idea?
Greetings from germany

clicking the buttom "original size" does nothing.
Whether it does something or not will depend on the number of pixels in the original image, which is a function of the dimensions and resolution of the image. Thus an image that is 4x6 inches at a resolution of 72ppi would not change, while one that is 200ppi would enlarge dramatically. Not at all sure the button is actually all that useful.
When I said to read the Help files, I meant those for Pages. Unlike the text editing programs you are used to, Pages does not handle image files in the same way. Because it is basically a page layout program, the expectation is that you bring an image in, and then size the image on the page to suit the layout you wish to have. You can use any size (in dimensions on the page) you want. For best printing results you would want a higher resolution image. Bring it into Pages, then resize it on the page to suit your purposes. You can later change the size on the page if you wish. As mentioned before you change the image by selecting it and either dragging the bounding box handles, or entering the dimensions you wish it to have in the boxes of the Metrics section of the Inspector.
There is no bug in the OS or in Pages. You are just not understanding what Pages does. I repeat, it does NOT work the way you are expecting it to work. It works fine, just not the way you expect, because it is a different sort of program than you are used to. You need to learn how to use Pages. You can start here:
http://www.apple.com/iwork/pages/
You should have gotten a Pages User Guide in PDF form (anyway, I have one). You can also use the Pages Help function, and there is a user forum here in Apple Discussions:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1302
Use those resources to discover how it actually works.

  • Copy/pasting date dimension to different project

    Hi all,
    We need to copy the date dimension from one project to another. Normally copy/paste can be used, but... not on the date dimension! I tried export/import with mdl but that imports it back to the same project?!
    Thanks,

  • Copy/Paste settings always includes lens corrections even if not ticked? (LR3)

    I'm having trouble with copy/paste settings on LR3, in that whenever I copy settings and paste them onto other images, the settings for the Lense Corrections section are always transferred, even though they were not ticked in the copy settings dialog. Can anyone else confirm this is a bug or am I doing something wrong?
    Edit: Should have mentioned, LR 3.0, Mac OSX 10.6.4, iMac i7.
    Thanks,
    David

    I CANNOT reproduce that.
    Do you have the lens correction box unchecked? or do you just have the four boxes under that hierarchy unchecked?

    in JDK 1.4.0 we can use the copy/paste between the java applets and other windows applications but in JDK 1.4.1_01 it does not work more!!!
    there is a simple JApplet code:

    public class JApplet1 extends JApplet
         public void init()
              getRootPane().putClientProperty("defeatSystemEventQueueCheck", Boolean.TRUE);

    Hi,
    I have found out the cause for the issue: before you install 1.4.1_01.exe you must deinstall all JRE's on your computer (1.3.XX, 1.4.0.XX) than works that well the Copy/Paste.
    that is confusingly because we don't have to make that in JRE 1.4.0.
    Best regards

  • Updated iPhoto last night...Now, can't copy/paste or drag/drop images to folders/thumb drives outside of iPhoto

    As the title states, I updated iPhoto last night as per suggestion from the App store.
    It installed, and I went back to work using it. Within a few minutes, iPhoto crashed. I sent the report to Apple.
    When i opened iPhoto back up, it said it found inconsistencies and needed to repair. so i let it repair, which took a while...when it was done, i went back to work editing some photos from a recent shoot. It almost crashed again while i was working and then it came out of it. Anyways, i shut down everything after a bit of work and all was good in the world...until this morning.
    I went to get the images out of iPhoto and onto a thumb drive, but it wouldn't let me. I selected 50 images, copied them, and went to paste in the folder on the thumb drive...but it only pasted 10 of the 50 images. so i tried dragging them all and dropping them into the folder. nothing happened. it has done this to me once before, and when it did, i restarted and tried again and it worked...this time, i restarted and tried again and it kept doing the same thing. so i shut it down, did a cold boot, got everything back up, and tried again...still doing the same thing.
    It seems like every time i do an upgrade to iPhoto it causes some kind of problem. it never crashed on me until i did the first update, and since then the stability has been a real issue.
    So anyways, i didn't have a lot of time this morning before i had to go to work to try to figure this out, BUT, i did notice that it would allow me to drag and drop 1 image at a time...and that would save to the folder i selected...but i don't have time to do 1 image at a time...EVER! i am a photographer and need to drag and drop hundreds of images at a time.
    Can anyone help?
    thanks!
    Joe

    Thanks for the response, Larry!
    I will try that when I get home and see if it works. Will update the thread with the results then.
    I hope it works as you described, but it is/was so much easier to just be able to select the photos in iPhoto and drag/drop them directly into the folder on the thumb drive...it's odd it doesn't work anymore...?

  • 4.0EA1 - Copy/Paste in Script Output window on Mac is not working

    I'm running 4.0.0.12 on MacOS X 10.8.4, and I can't Copy from the "Script Output" window.  What I regularly do is generate some SQL using an SQL query, so I want to copy the output and paste it back into the Worksheet so I can run it.  For example:
    select 'alter tablespace ' || TABLESPACE_NAME || ' begin backup;' from DBA_TABLESPACES;

    This is a known issue and will be addressed for the next EA release.

  • Copy/Paste Apple Forum Sign In P/W does not Paste

    Is there some security phenomenon that will not allow me to copy and paste my PW into the slot/space for Password
    when I try and signin to Apple forums. The allocated space where I would normally paste my PW does not show anything
    being pasted,, and I have also used Paste in the menu area , and even tried dragging my PW into this area, to no avail.
    Of course, I can type it in manually,, however, my PW is strong,, and generated, and find it very arduous to type in.
    Perhaps a 10.7 feature?

    Whoops, sorry, I was thinking of another forum I go to. You actually go Safari > Preferences > AutoFill and check the box for remember name and passwords. It will then ask you each site you log onto after that if you would like it to remember the password.

  • Clearbox 3 Copy/Paste Code Failing...

    So, I have a site I made with an image gallery... I have used Clearbox 3 and love it!  So, I go an put 21 pictures up on the gallery... on the site, every image is in the "images/gallery" folder, and the thumbnails are in the "images/gallery/thumbs" folder... 
    Example:
    <div class="item">
        <a rel="clearbox[gallery=Gallery,,comment=Tilapia Zilli]" href="/images/gallery/zilli.jpg" title="Tilapia Zilli">
           <img class="border" src="/images/gallery/thumbs/zilli-thumb.jpg" alt="Tilapia Zilli" />
        </a>
    </div>
    I copied this code and pasted it 20 more times for all of my photos, changing the descriptions, file names, and alt text as necessary.  Worked great.  So, today I go an add one more photo to my gallery.  Same way, copied, pasted, changed as needed.  In DW, the thing works great - thumbs show up, pictures load, everything is happy.  I uploaded it to my host and no browser will work - it loads all the 21 other photos, but will NOT load the new photo or thumbnail at all... file names and locations are CORRECT (checked numerous times and had another person verify no spelling errors) and all punctuations needed appear to be correct as compared to the same exact lines above it... files are in the correct locations and named the correct things on the server, too...
    Any idea why it may be doing this?

    How about replacing the waffle with a link to the site. That way we can figure out what is going wrong.

  • Field that dosen't permit Copy&paste.

    Hi everybody,
         I need to create an input field in a screen that doesn’t and won’t permit coping from it. In other words an input field that is visible but not selectable. Another way to solve my need would be to restrict the paste of this field.
    I’ve thought of creating an image from it and posting it but it’s too complicated and would consume a lot of resources. If anybody has a better idea or knows how to do this please answer.
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Jorge,
    To have a field that does not allow copying from it is difficult to handle. In fact almost impossible, if there is NO other activity on the screen.
    You would have to write your own event handler in ABAP objects and build a trigger mechanism that listens to the activation or déactivation of a field.
    However, in order to give you some help, there is a way to cleanup the CLIPBOARD (so any entries in it are removed, thus preventing a CTRL+V (paste) operation.
    Simply place this in the first PAI module of your screen:
    DATA: myrc TYPE i.
    CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>clipboard_export
      CHANGING
        rc = myrc
      EXCEPTIONS
        CNTL_ERROR   = 1
        ERROR_NO_GUI = 2
        others       = 3.
    Of course you need to handle possible errors (clean up SY-SUBRC). Also keep in mind, that this does NOT prevent COPY & PASTE operation, as long as the screen has NOT passed the PAI event in your program.
    Hope this gives you a clue,
    Regards,
    Rob.

  • How do I change the JPEG image size in PSE-12 when opening from RAW

    Switching from PSE-9 to PSE-12. When a JPEG image is opened RAW in PSE-12 the size is 18.72" Wide x 12.48" high 300 DPI. The same image in PSE-9 is 23.4" wide x 15.6" High 240 DPI. How do I get PSE-12 to open the image as in PSE-9?

    Uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the dialog Scale styles and resample Image so that only constrain proportions is checked. If you the change the resolution box from 240 to 300 you will get back to your original dimensions.
    This is a meaningless thing to do, you still have the exact same number of pixels, you have only changed the metadata number in the file for ppi, and your prints are not affected by this number.
    You could also use the same method to change the dimensions to 6 x 4 or 9 x 6 etc.
    There are some cases (actually most cases) where you need to CROP the photo to change the dimensions, when the aspect ratio of the original photos is different than the aspect ratio of the final photo; the specific case in 99jon's example is the only case you ever want to change dimensions using Image->Resize->Image Size, where the aspect ratio doesn't change from 6x4 to 9x6 (or 12x8 or 18x12 or ...), and even then, you could do the same thing simply by telling the printer the size you want, you don't really need to do anything in PSE.

    Hi Bjoern,
    I'm not sure that InDesign ever really copies a story, just the text in the story. Since the label and the track changes setting were associated with the story itself (and not with the text in the story), they didn't survive the transfer from one story to another.
    It may depend on how you copy/paste--I'd expect the above to be true if you copy/paste with the Type tool, but I'm not sure what happens if you copy/paste all of the text frames in a story using the Selection tool. It may be that the label is maintained in that case.
    Thanks,
    Ole

  • Copy Paste Recover

    Stupid Question,, but does anyone know if there is a way to recover something that was copied to be pasted,, and than lost before it was pasted by copying something else...?
    I wrote an entire email, and copied it to paste it in a new window.. than, before I pasted it, I shut that window.. and stupidly copied something else before I had a chance to paste it........ Yes I know,, I'm a retard...
    Is there a possibility of recovering this text???
    I figure there is not, but it's worth it to ask before I begin retyping...
    Thanks in advance..

    Only one "clipboard" in OS X (or any Mac OS). Newer stuff replaces older.
    Plenty of software that can "extend" the clipboard to allow you to have dozens (or thousands) of "clips".
    http://www.scriptsoftware.com/copypaste/
    Is one I've used for a few years.
    http://www.yousoftware.com/
    New kid on the block that adds dozens of other features.
    If you do lots of copy/paste work both are a great investment.

    in IE, http://server:80/index.jsp--->http://server:80/search.do-->this shows a welcome message.
    now, open up CTRL+N and copy+paste "http://server:80/search.do"...this shows the welcome message !!!.
    Kill the IE completely, and open up a fresh IE, copy +paste "http://server:80/search.do" redirecting to "index.jsp"
    Now, fun with FIREFOX,
    in FIREFOX you can open unlimited tabs, copy+paste "http://server:80/search.do"==>welcome message.
    Kill the Firefox completely. open up "http://server:80/search.do", goes to "index.jsp" page.

    i have not set any session Timeout because this is not reqired. i wanted to BLOCK this COPY+PASTE in the browser without keepting session timeoutin web.xml OR without session.maxtimeinterval blah blah.
    can u tel some forumula if this COPY+ PASTE cold be avoided (if possible at all) ?
    quite a big post..

    they are not smart. they use javascript event trapping to disallow actions which require Ctrl key to be pressed.Which is terribly annoying and should be banned and result in the revocation of your developer's license. snort

  • Copy/Paste/Cut when overwriting TransferHandler

    There's a small Swing JTextField component in my Java tool where you can drop a file so the textfield takes the file's full path name.
    I've implemented it according to the Java tutorial and it works fine.
    However, now Copy/Paste/Cut don't work anymore on that field. The tutorial
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/dnd.html#cut
    explains that you've to re-implement this functionality because your own transfer handler has overwritten it. But how do you do this?
    I don't get the point in how to use the example's menuItem to make it work with my textfield.
    Basically, around my line of code
    mMyTextfield.setTransferHandler(new MyownTransferhandler();
    .. I've to enable the Copy/Paste/Cut Action commands. But I'm not sure how.

    Do you mean with applet viewer? I believe the permissions given to applet viewer are more extensive than a brower plugin.
    Beyond this, I'm not much help on the intricacies of applets.
