Correct Size for Full Page Bleed

I'm using 8.5x11 custom Photoshop images for my entire hardcover book. What is the ideal size to use? Should I add some cropping area to each edge to get a correct bleed? (i.e 8.7 x 11.2, etc)
Thanks!

If you are using standard 3:4 ratio digital photos they bleed just find for me - I have a number in my book and they are all perfect
Just make sure you have adequate resolution - 1530 x 1980 or larger

What image size for full page photo?

What image size is required to be able to create a single full page photo in an iPhoto book?
I shoot in RAW and use Lightroom for most of my photography. However, for family pictures, I'd like to create an iPhoto book. I exported from Lightroom as 100% quality jPEGs / at 320 dpi / small side 2000 pixels -- but I still get a triangle warning that this is not big enough for a single photo page. What dimensions/resolution is required to put one photo on a page?
By the way, would you recommend jPEG? I tried TIFF and while those file sizes much larger, I still get warning triangle?
Finally, when I re-import to the new size that someone hopefully will recommend, how do I delete my old (too small) images in iPhoto?

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
In iPhoto '08 & '09 the warning comes on if a photo is below 180 dpi - so for 8.5 x 11 you need a minimum photo size of 1530 x 1980 pixels - and remember is you zoom or crop the photo in the book the area you actually printing must be that - not the original sized photo
The format of the photo (TIFF or JPEG) makes no difference in the warning symbol only the pixel size

*Full page bleed

I have my printer (Epson 300) set for full page printing and it will print that way in CS5. In LR3 I cannot get it to print full page. The bleed space at the bottom of the page is 1/2" and I cannot (in custom moode) move a cell into that bottom 1/2". How can I change this to be able to use that space?
Thanks much for your help,
Al

Maybe you have already done this. But in the Print module you need to set all of the margin sliders to 0. Then you need to go into Page Setup (button in the left-hand panel) and choose the appropriate printer settings. Also, in the right-hand panel under Image Settings, be sure to check the option, "Zoom to Fill".

What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?

What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?
I read an article and cannot find it that said something about trying to make it 2million pixels and JPG to keep it small, but what exactly should the dimensions be that I ultimately import? Is there some kind of a "density" setting I have to use, as well, when exporting from Photoshop, for example?

See Optimizing performance in your iBooks Author books
Density is discussed by Apple in this context as 'dpi'...

264 - new iPad
At the top of this forum there are popular links listed on the right, including image sizing etc. Be sure to study those existing/previous threads on this topic.
Good luck.

I need a full page bleed for an image!

I've tried just about everything to figure this one out, but I'm starting to suspect the feature is just not available. I'm working on a book and will self publish it, so I need to put the illustrations into the body of the work. Which isn't hard to do, but I need the image to bleed into the margins, basically span the entire page. The only way I can seem to do this is to eliminate the margins entirely, but of course I need the margins for the text. So, is there a way to eliminate the margins just for the image?
While I'm here I might as well address the other issue I'm having: I need to save an image at 300 DPI but I constantly have problems getting the size right if I do so. I know the max pixels is 2000, but for printing specs I need the cover image for the book to be 6.25x9.25, which comes out to 1875 x 2775 pixels at 300 DPI. Perhaps Appleworks is not the program to do this in, but unfortunately my old iMac has no room for larger programs. Hmm.....Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi Paul,
On a typewriter, you'd call then the Margin stops.
If you want to eliminate the headers on pages with pictures, try this addition to Yvan's suggestions:
For the first page where you want a picture, put a section break at the end of the previous page, then go Format > Section...
Set the section to begin on a New Page, and Click the checkbox for Title Page. Click OK.
After inserting the picture, don't use a Section break to move to the next page. Press enter to insert a Column break or shift-enter to insert a Page break (both have the same effect in a single column document).
For each new picture, insert a section break at the end of the page before. The new section will start on a new page, and the headers and footers will be suppressed on this 'Title' page.
Regards,
Barry

Web pages come out tiny, I must use control + to view every page. How can I set a defult size for every page I vivit?

After upgrading to 3.6 all the web pages come out tiny. The text and the pictures. I must use the Ctrl + in order to make the web page fill my screen. What do I have to do to set a default size for every web site I visit?

■ Easiest method, if you allow firefox to tabs you used then on restarting I believe it also retains the zoom settings
* '''Tools -> Options -> General -> Startup = use current pages'''
■ There are also extensions that can be used, some allow individual sites to have individual settings. Look at the [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/772884 this thread] which also discusses related matters.
■ The best method if you need the same effest accross all sites is probably changing one of the preferences within the config files, it is discussed in the above linked thread and also in this MozzillaZine article http://kb.mozillazine.org/Layout.css.dpi

Correct size for swf/FLV video files in Presenter 7?

HI,
I'm trying to use Presenter with some screen capture and
other video an I cant seem to get the video to show up at the
correct size. If the video is scaled for screen capture it looks
really bad. I can build new resources or export to any type or
video/swf or FLV but I don't seem to be able to control how to get
this to work once in comes into presenter. Real video is OK as that
scales well.

Personally, I record in Camtasia at 800x600, then have it
resize to 640x480. When I import that file into PowerPoint, it has
a huge white border around it, and I have to resize the video until
there's no white border left.
It's still quite large on the screen, and the fact that
PowerPoint / Presenter seem to resample/rescale the video seems to
lower the quality some, which is why I often use heavy zoom effects
within Camtasia.
I've tried using Captivate for creating the videos, but
honestly, it's faster and provides a better end result if I'm using
Camtasia. What software are you using?

Keyboard shortcut for full page view (and many others) removed

After updating Acrobat from version 8 to 9 I had to learn that a lot of keyboard shortcuts were removed from Acrobat and there's no way to customize then. I was using all shortcuts for zooming, in particular the nearly Adobe-wide CTRL-0 to see a full page. This just does not work anymore -- what's the reason?
Is there any other way we can configure shortcuts? For me it is not acceptable to use the mouse for this.
Thanks, Felix

no it doesn't
it just changes font size

Can't get rid of vertical scroll bar for full page iviews

Hello all,
We 've got a number of areas of our portal where we are using iViews with a full page (e.g. web dynpro apps, collaboration directory). However with all of these iViews, a vertical scroll bar appears on the right hand side. This bar has hardly any "play" in it (it doesn't move very far), and it doesn't reveal anything extra.
The funny thing is, it only happens when our desktop (theme and framework) is applied. Does anyone have any idea what might affect this?
The iView tray height is set to full_page. In some cases it sits within a page, others it is added directly to the workset.
Using EP6SP14
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Christopher,
whenever a page is displayed in portal, a javascript resizes your inner page iView dynamically. The value used depends on the resolution of your browser (height) minus some pixel reserverd for your mast head, TLN and other page header iViews.
If you use a theme or masthead iView that is higher than an original one, the javascript calculates an iView height that is too high. Maybe you should try decreasing the height of your portal header.
At least, that's what I think. Maybe I'm wrong.
HTH,
Carsten

'Cinemagraphs' for full page ads in iPad, best approach?

Hi, folks
I would like to know your opinion about the best strategy to prepare full page ads with short animations, the style what is nowadays known as 'cinemagraphs' (here you have some examples), just with some texts place over them. I know that animated gifs are not supported in DPS but my doubt is:
1. Open the source video / gif in Photoshop, separate the needed pics and then prepare a short slideshow in InDesign (simple but... very limited?)
2. Open the source video / gif in Photoshop, separate the needed pics and then prepare a short slideshow in Edge.
3. Open the source video / gif in After Effects, make a very short video and then place that in InDesign so that it plays automatically.
I feel the third way would be the easiest and most effective, specially for people outside the Adobe DPS stuff (ads agencies and the like). But, as usual, I am not sure.
Thanks a lot
Gustavo (Posting from Madrid)

Hi Gustavo,
I would suggest that you use the image sequence overlay.
If you can convert your video/gif into a sequence of frames, you can go into InDesign and create an image sequence.
This is done by dropping in the first frame of your sequence into an empty graphic object. Go to the Folio Overlays panel, select "Image Sequence",
To load in the image sequence, you need to click on the file icon next to "Load Images", and navigate to the folder where you have saved your image sequence. Note that you need to have the images all in one folder, with sequentially numbered titles. (e.g. cinemagraph0000.png cinemagraph0001.png cinemagraph0002.png cinemagraph0003.png …).
Then make sure the settings you select match the ones in the image above:
Turn on "Show First Image Initially"
Turn on "Auto Play"
Turn off "Tap Play/Pause"
Delay: 0 secs
Speed: This depends on the frame rate of your image sequence. If you don't know your frame rate, try starting with 16fps, and test it in the desktop previewer, adjusting it until you get the right frame rate.
Turn on "Loop"
Turn off "Swipe to Change Image"
This should provide you with a smoothly playing image sequence that doesn't require any action to be taken by the reader upon loading. It will loop indefinitely, and if made well, could be a pretty cool subtle addition to a spread.
PS: I'm a fan of cinemagraphs too. This blog has some of my favourites: http://iwdrm.tumblr.com/

ROTATE 90 Degree For Full Page VIewing?

Hi, is it possible to rotate the digital reader 90 degrees in order to read a full page of text without scrolling? I have a MacBook, which is perfect for reading a full page of text in portrait mode. It is less perfect for reading a page in Landscape mode, far too much scrolling as I read and a full page at 800 pixels high is a strain on the eyes. However, my efforts to find a way to successfully switch the entire display to portrait mode have failed. Then I realized the application itself could easily display in a rotated orientation. If I can rotate pictures 90 degrees in Photoshop, I should be able to do it with Acrobat or Digital Reader. Here's hoping!

This is on our list for the next release. But... not all features make it from the list to reality.

Estimating the backup size for full database backup?

How to estimate the backup file size for the following backup command?
Oracle 10g R2 on HPUX
BACKUP INCREMENTAL LEVEL 0 DATABASE;
Thank you,
Smith

Depends on the number of used blocks, block size etc. You could probably get a rough formula for backup size based on the contents of dba_tab_statistics (subtract empty_blocks), dba_ind_statistics etc.

Correct Size for iPhoto large Books is ...

Am I to understand that if I create my full size pages in photoshop at 11.1 x 8.6 that when placing into iPhoto I will have taken into account Apple's Bleeds?
mike

mike:
Possibly if you keep the image(s) that you want to within 0.1 inch of the edge, i.e. an 0.1 border around the image(s). Not having tried it myself I'm only conjecturing about this. I'd hate for you to put such a border around the layout and then get it on the finished page. Unless there's a very important part of the photo within 0.1 inch of the edge I wouldn't worry about it.
If you're referring to creating a colored background and then putting your photos and text on it, keeping them within that 0.1" border very well might insure that they are take to the edge of the page. If not, then the worse you have is a 0.1" border of background color around the page.
Info on books that I got from Apple is in the Everything you wanted to know about books... and then some. topic.
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.

Size for Web Page

What size do I set for the background page for a website ?

If you want a background image effect on your web page, it would probably be best to use an image that can be smoothly tiled. Instead of trying to fit the image to the page (which will display differently in different browsers, and with different user settings), simply use a tiled image, using an image that fits together left-to-right and top-to-bottom and setting your page to tile it.
