Creating a large Collage

I am looking to create a collage made from 100 photos (all taken high res) to be printed large, approx 120cm x 50cm. To be able to print this size I need to keep the high resolution and hence looking for a large file output.
Can anyone tell me whether I would be able to do this in Photoshop Elements? If not in Elements which product would allow this?

This can be done in Photoshop Elements.
To start out go to File menu>New>Blank file, set the width & height to conform to your paper stock, and resolution in the 240-300 px/in range. Make background white, you can always change it.This will be your canvas.
With the other pictures open in the Project bin, drag each one to the work area. Each picture will be on its own layer. Use the move tool to position each picture, and you can resize it using the corner handles of the bounding box.
It may help with orientation if you turn on the grid (View>grid). This will not print.
If you want to add a border or frame to each picture, that can be done.

Cannot create a large hardcover book in iphoto '08

I'm trying to create a large (8.5 x 11) hardcover book in iphoto. I've followed all of the directions (selecting the album, selecting "book" and then selecting the size and theme but nothing happens. The only book that I seem to be able to create is a size small softcover.
Has anyone been able to solve this issue? The large hardcover book option appears in the drop down but clicking it doesn't do anything.
Thanks!

I've not seen this reported - try renewing yoru iPhoto preference file - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

How to set SAXParser at command-line interface to create a large XML file

Hi,
I am trying to create a large XML file (more than 50 MB) by selecting from Oracle database but failed because of "out of memory" error. According to "Oracle XML Developer Guide", we should use SAXParser to parsing a large XML file. But there is no example to show how to set SAXParser at command-line
Following is what I use to get xml files. It works only when the file is small.
java OracleXML getXML -DateFormat -withDTD -rowsetTag PO_HDR -conn
"jdbc:oracle:oci8:@server_name" -user "ID/password" "select * from table_name"
When I set SAXParser at the way below,
java oracle.xml.parser.v2.SAXParser OracleXML getXML -DateFormat -withDTD -rowsetTag PO_HDR -conn
"jdbc:oracle:oci8:@server_name" -user "ID/password" "select * from table_name"
it failed with the error message: "In class oracle.xml.parser.v2.SAXParser: void main(String argv[]) is not defined"
Does anyone know how to solve the problem? I'll be appreciated very much for your help.

here are my ideas.
register the xml schema.
using xmldom, generate the desired xml output and return as xmltype.
then you can use something like this to check.
declare
xmldoc xmltype ;
begin
   -- populate xmldoc from you xmldom function
   -- validate against XML schema
   xmldoc.isSchemaValid(schema_url, root_element);
   if xmldoc.isSchemaValid = 1 then
        --valid schema
   else
        --invalid
   end if;
end

How can I create projects larger than 7GB?

I want to creat a project and it will be very large... over 10GB. I know that because I finnished only two thirds of it and it already 7GB size (I get the warnning message all the time)
Is there any way to create a larger projects? I dont want to burn it on a disc... I just want to save it as an image file, and play it from there...
If there's a way to make my project smaller so it can fit a Dual-Layer disc will also be a bless...
Thank you all!!
Naor

Yes. It is not the size in GB of your project. I have had many projects that were between 60 and 100 GB, but under the time lime.
It is theTIME limitation that iDVD is complaining about to you. A single-layer DVD can hold 120 minutes of content, including menus and submenus. A double-layer DVD can hold twice that much, 240 minutes total. Your project exceeds the capacity of even a double-layer DVD because it is too long to burn on one DVD.
To burn DVDs with that many minutes, you will need to split your project and burn it to two DVDs, so that each part is not longer than 240 minutes total time. This is the same for creating disk image files. They cannot exceed the total time limits.
I have seen reports of supercompressing data using Toast, so that you can fit more content onto a disk, but I have not used it this way, and I think you are probably trying to put too much onto one disk even for Toast. Maybe others have done this and can give your their experiences with Toast's limitations.

Creating a large Airport network, possible?

Hi there,
I'm wondering how many Airport Extremes or Expresses can be daisy chained using either WDS or the extend feature. Is it possible to create a large network (20+) and is this practical?
Many thanks.

I've set up 2 Airport Extremes as WDS's so I could get signal in the back yard, but the more you chain them along, the slower it gets. My Time Capsule is in the front of the house, my first Airport Extreme is in the back of the house, and my second Airport Extreme is in the garage behind the house. Performance on the first Airport Extreme is not noticeably slower, but it is from the second Airport Extreme in the garage. Pages that normally load almost instantly take a few seconds to get everything to display. I did try it with just the one Airport Extreme in the garage connecting to the Time Capsule, but the Airport Extreme would periodically lose connectivity. Just out of curiosity, how large an area do you want to cover?

Best way to group/create a large mosaic of film clips?

I created this in Apple Motion and am trying to recreate in AE. It's so super simple really but very beautiful.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI5FKQS3vtw
Short rant: As an actual professional graphic designer (who does occasional video and 3d work) I've more and more realizing Apple doesn't care about working professionals and thier software shows it. I made this clip, and the UI slowly began to degrade and then it wouldn't render certain clips, now it takes 15 minutes just to load the file.
I've tried creating a pre-comp but I'm concerned when I create it, it isn't the best way to accomplish what I need in the end. I just need to create one large mosaic, then have it as one layer so I can zoom in and out of it, create masks with it, etc. I wish there was a way to create one HUGE canvas (108000p LOL) so I can lay everything out exactly how I need it, then plop that into my 1080p project.
Can anyone provide a few ideas / features / directions to research and move forward with?
Thanks so much!

No, unfortunately there is no easy way to do this kind of thing. Creating pre-comps over pre-comps is pretty much way to go.

Create a photo collage from iphoto

I am trying to create a photo collage from pictures from iphoto but I have no idea where to begin. What program do I open for this and do I do a lot of cutting and pasting? I am new to the computer thing so any help would be great.

lilgag:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There are several 3rd party application that will take a folder of photos and create a collage or mosiac of them. One will create a selected picture out of the rest of the photos. They may or may not do what you want. Search VersionTracker.com for "collage" or "mosiac".
The other way, as you're mentioned, is to use an image editor that will let you create a blank canvas and then open, cut and past other photos to it. Photoshop Elements would be my choice for a 3rd party editor for that and most other edits. Here are a couple of examples of the extreme types of edits that can be performed by it with a little experience.

Creating a large 2 sided document.

I need to create a large document. There will be 1600 unique front sides, and one common back side for the document. The front sides will be created thru a data merge. So, basically, all the odd pages will be unique, and all the even pages need to be exactly the same. I'm trying to figure out a way to create this. The data merge won't merge just odd pages. And to do a data merge and then insert all the back pages later would be a very time intensive operation. I'm not going to try to create this as one large document. But regardless of how many smaller documents I split it into, I have to somehow insert 1600 identical pages in between all the pages created with the data merge. I'm using CS4. If anybody has any suggestions, I would love to hear them
thanks

Yes, we are using a high volume printer. I've thought about printing the back side first. The problem is, once you run paper thru the copier, sometimes because of the static build up, it's hard to get it thru a second time. And we also can have problems with the image quality the second time thru. You get the best quality by letting the machine do the duplexing. And we're not actually 1600 we're doing 7 copies of 1600. So it's a huge run.
It does seem like there ought to be some way to insert blank pages in between existing pages, in bulk. I've tried to find a solution for InDesign, for Acrobat. We have imposition software, I tried doing it with that. But I can't find any way to add a page between a lot of existing pages. I can't believe I'm the first person who has to create a 2 sided data merge document, but only one side has variable data.
Thanks for your idea. We may end up having to run it that way. But I'm hoping to find another way.

Creating a large catalogue with InDesign CC

I am attempting to create a large catalogue with Adobe InDesign CC, and presume that the data-merge function is the way to do this? If i use the data merge function, will the template I create adjust to varying amounts of data within the data file - eg some items will take up a quarter of a page, other items may take up a full page. Also, if I use the data merge function, can I manipulate the data manually afterwards - eg for mistakes, alignments, etc? Thanks

How large is large?
You can use data merge. I would be tempted to run it one record per page and run one of the scripts that will connect each frame to flow into each other. Then make the needed frame adjustments on each page. Not as onerous as it sounds. A script can be had on this site:
http://www.loicaigon.com/en/solutions-en/downloads/
Like Gert writes, edits in the merge file will require a new merge unless you purchase one of the commercial plug-ins.
Set up paragraph and character styles in a sample of the data so when laying out for the merge you can handle most all (or all) of the styles you need.
If you want a healthy learning curve, and you can obtain the data as an XML file, you can also go that route. Same procedure, make a smaller XML file, create the needed styles, map them and import the XML. Your frames will be whole page already and the data will flow from frame to frame without "stitching" the frames back together.

I created a large Flash Pro file which includes buttons and I want to share it with others

I created a large Flash Pro file which includes buttons and I want to share it with others. It's too big for e-mail and youtube and dropbox don't support fla files. I'm new to Flash and I would appreciate a simple solution!
Thank you!

Thank you! But based on the link you gave me it seems like I should only have to do step 1 since I am not trying to embed my file into a web page. After I uploaded the SWF file to the Google Drive it still will not play. It keeps opening in Adobe Device Central and won't play anything. Should I go ahead and do step 2?
I really just want the video available to share with others. It seems like this shouldn't be very difficult.
Thanks!

IMovie is crashing after creating the large movie for YouTube.

Hey Guys!
So, I have been uploading to YouTube from iMovie for several years now and today I uploaded again as I usually do. The problem was that about 30 seconds before the end of my video it went black on YouTube! I deleted it off YouTube and reuploaded but it happened again! So, thinking that it was something on YouTube's end I deleted it but the next time I tried to upload, iMovie gave me this error message: "The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (Not enough room in heap zone / )"
Now when I try to upload, iMovie crashes after creating the large movie to upload to YouTube!
I have restarted my computer, deleted items to create extra space on my disk, and ejected my iPhone so nothing else happens while I'm trying to create the large movie.
Does anyone have an idea of what is happening and how to fix it?
Thank you!

I'm having a similar problem with Imovie 11. I wonder if the problem is in the new Mountain Lion update. Fortunatly, I cloned the drive befor installing the update. I've cloned this drive back to the original startup drive and gotten back to IMovie.
