Creating Large Image of SWF for Printing

I need to create very large images of my SWFs for printing
purposes without a degradation of image quality. Any
suggestions?

If anyone else had this problem you can see the neat script that was written to solve it in the Automator forum. Go here:

  • How to print a really large image on a desktop printer?

    Is there a way to output a really large image on an inkjet printer?   For example, I want to print out a 4'X6' (1.5mX2.0m) image on a printer that only outputs 8.5" X 11" paper.   Is there a way to automatically tile the output so I can tape them together later? 

    Print>> Scaling >> Tile Full Pages
    Set an overlap, unless this is quick and you are ok with slivers of white between your prints.

  • Creating your own theme-templates for printing?

    Can I create my own theme-templates for printing?

    No, iTunes printing is quite simple and only works off it's own templates. If you want to customise templates you'd be better advised to look at on of the specialised cover printing programs that are available. DiskLabel is one that springs to mind.

  • 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.

  • Unable to create large image file in iphoto

    I make a lot of panoramic images by stitching together overlapping images with hugin in TIFF format, then edit them in iphoto and use it to export them in jpeg format for greater versitality of use. So far I haven't had any trouble, even with large images as big as ~25,000x2000 pixels and ~90MB file size.
    However, I have come across a problem recently trying to export an edited version of a particularly large one - 38,062x1799 136MB file size. I can export an unedited version to jpeg without trouble, but when I tried to export an edited version it gave me an error saying it couldn't create the file. I looked around here for solutions and found the suggestion to check the file size in finder, it was zero. After experimenting I've found that the file size goes to zero as soon as any changes are made to the file, the edited image can still be viewed in iphoto, but does not display if you try to zoom in. I have tried making the TIFF file again with hugin to see if it is a problem with the file, but I also experience the same problem with the newly made file.
    I am working on a Macbook air (1.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory, Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB, Version 10.7.5 OS X) in iphoto '11 version 9.2.2 (629.40). Any suggestions for getting round this issue?

    I thought of something that might help with working out what's going on.
    After I make any edits to the image, if I move on to the info tab the image initially goes a bit blurry as it often does with large images, but instead of coming up as a clear image after a few seconds like normal, I get the image I've attached here and the file size changes to zero. To be able to see the thumbnail of the edited image I need to come back out to the library again, but the file size is still zero. If I revert to original the file size is restored.

  • Saving Images to DVD for printing

    Hi all
    I have began shooting RAW, converting RAW images and editing with ACR & PSE 4.
    I do not have dedicated printer at this stage as I am still learning editing with PSE4.
    Any images I wish to get printed I save to a DVD and take to local print shop for printing. Normally I save in JPEG format and get 6x4 prints.
    However I have a few images I wish to get printed in a larger size, say 10x8 or 13x11.
    My question relates to what is best format and size to save images to get optium ptinting quality for these siz prints? Pictures taken with a 8mp camera and I have the images saved in TIFF which are 22.9m in size. So resolution is not an issue.
    Hope this makes sense.
    Thanks
    Dennis

    > 8mp camera and I have the images saved in TIFF which are 22.9m in size
    That makes no sense.
    > So resolution is not an issue.
    Yes it is.
    There are 2 issues here: file format and image size/resolution.
    The best format depends upon what the print shop will accept. Often, JPEG is the only option and simply saving at the highest quality will give excellent results. If the option is available from the shop, give them a non-lossy format - TIFF is probably best.
    With image size it's all down to pixels and looking at th epixel size of your image is what matters. The "resolution" [PPI value] is simply the ratio of pixels in the image to inches on paper. So long as you PPI is at least 200 and no more than, say, 600, you are OK. Print shops operate in 2 ways:
    The expensive ones will take your image and you tell them how big you want to print and they do it.
    The cheaper ones require the image be carefully prepared to be the right size - i.e. have the PPI set so that the size in inches is right.
    In my experience, the cheaper ones, while requiring more work, often produce the best results.
    If you are in the UK, email me [colin_walls AT yahoo DOT com] and I will direct you to an excellent mail-order printer, who is cheap, reliable and produces excellent results. [I have no business connection with them, except that I'm a happy customer.]

  • Labview crashes when creating large image files

    I have a problem with Labview 6.0.2( I've tested evaluation version 7.0 too).
    I'm constructing a very large image, for example: 4500x4500 pixels. Labview crashes when converting the pixture to a pixmap. The image is fully constructed on my screen (in a picture control), but when converting it to a pixmap (for saving the image in a known format (bmp, jpg, tiff)), Labview crashes.
    I did some testing and when the number of pixels exceeded the limit of 2^24(16777216), the file 'image.cpp' crashes on line 1570. The vi to convert it to a pixmap is: P'icture to pixmap.vi'
    Does someone know a workaround for this problem? Or is there a fix for it?
    Thank you!

    I've tested the 6i version of my VI in Labview 7.0 evalutation version. It raised an error but not the same error:
    d:\lvworm\src\lvsource\compatexport.cpp(37) : DAbort: Called a routine not in the compatibility LVRT table
    $Id: //labview/branches/Wormhole/dev/lvsource/compatexport.cpp#11 $
    0x004BD4CB - LabVIEW_Eval + 0
    0x0EB710D9 - lvs248 + 0
    0x094C87A0 - + 0
    So i replaced the picture VI's with the 7.0 evalutation version VI's, and it worked. It is now possible for me to construct very large image files!
    I see no attached VI to test. But i guess it is also solved in Labview 7.0
    I used this file to convert the picture to image data:
    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0 Evaluation\vi.lib
    \picture\pictutil.llb\Picture to Pixmap.vi
    And this file to convert image data to bmp:
    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0 Evaluation\vi.lib\picture\bmp.llb\Write BMP File.vi
    I guess i have to write a workaround for this problem:
    divide the picture in blocks of 4096 x 4096 and then merge the image data arrays of the bloks together.

  • Placing images in Illustrator for print ready files

    I'm designing a brochure in Illustrator that contains several logos and photos.  (Yes, I know, Illustrator... I've read several forums and know that InDesign may be a better program for this, but I completely underbid this project and really need to stick with something I know for cost efficiency.)
    I need to resize several images in Photoshop to place in Illustrator and I'm wondering if I should save them as CMYK jpegs, or tiffs, etc.  I need the file to be the smallest it can be for upload to the printer.  I need the basics on different file types and their pros and cons.
    Also, when I'm sending out the proof to the customer, any tips on saving the pdf so the images aren't too blurry and the file is still sendable?
    Please help!!  Any other information or tips on how to prepare my file as a print ready would be great.  I love to learn and really need some great resources.
    Thanks!

    How many pages are we talking about?  The key to file efficiency is Placing images at their final size, so you are on the right track.  Let me try to help...
    "I need to resize several images in Photoshop to place in Illustrator and I'm wondering if I should save them as CMYK jpegs, or tiffs, etc.  I need the file to be the smallest it can be for upload to the printer.  I need the basics on different file types and their pros and cons."
    -Do not save as JPG.  The compression artifacts will show up in print.  Just Place CMYK .tiffs or .psd's without sizing in Illustrator.  Another thing to keep in mind is "Linking" the image files instead of "Embedding" them.  You have a little more control saving your page files as EPS before creating the final PDF.
    "Also, when I'm sending out the proof to the customer, any tips on saving the pdf so the images aren't too blurry and the file is still sendable?"
    -There are a few different ways you can create a PDF viewable as a softproof.  You could send the final as a Standard PDF using defaults.  Don't forget to embed the fonts and leave color unchanged.  What I do is Export > RGB TIF @ 150ppi > Open the .tiff in Photoshop and Save-As Photoshop PDF with a JPG compression of 8.  You could do that for each page and then reassemble using Acrobat for one assembled, final PDF optimized.
    "Please help!!  Any other information or tips on how to prepare my file as a print ready would be great.  I love to learn and really need some great resources."
    -Get Adobe's Print Publishing Guide.  It has enough information in it to help you wade through all of the disinformation out there.  Get in touch with a couple of local print shops and have them take a look at your files.  Good shops can spot problems and give you some handy tips.  Not all shops will take the time, so finding one can be tricky. 
    Thanks!
    -You're welcome.  Let us know how it all shakes out.

  • How to Create and apply adjustment preset for printing

    How can I create an adjustment preset that I can apply to images before I print? In Photoshop CS3, it's easy: I just create an action. But how do I apply a preset that simply shifts existing settings a relative amount instead of applying absolute settings that overwrite image-specific settings?
    The problem is that my Epson R1800 and its profiles output images that have a yellow shift to them. What I want to be able to do is apply a +5 shift to the shadow tint (camera calibration) and a +10 shift to the WB tint on top of whatever settings I already have after development.
    Any ideas?
    (and yes, I do use colour management, my monitor is calibrated, and I instruct LR2 to manage colour and use the profile specific to my printer, paper, and print quality setting)

    No ideas here? Surely someone must have wanted to apply an adjustment to compensate for a printer's tendencies or the different dmax, shadow detail, and colour temperature of various papers and illuminant sources (incandescent vs daylight fluorescent, sunlight), or at least use different tone / contrast settings or different amounts of sharpening (before the new print sharpening facility appeared in LR2).

  • Positioning image on page for printing in Elements 8

    In Elements 6, in the "print" dialogue, you could uncheck "center image", and print an image anywhere you chose on the paper. I use
    it because I print small decal images on A4 paper at the top, cut them off and can then reuse the (expensive) paper multiple times.
    Where is this option in Elements 8? When I try to move the image by dragging in the preview, it moves "behind" the window, but the actual print position remains the same, and the image is not printed in full. Where can I set the position of the printed image on the page? Surely this useful feature hasn't been removed?
    best regards,
    Matt

    Thanks Bob for your ideas. As Elo and Bryhy have mentioned, I find it very useful without leaving the Editor workspace to produce small test prints for tweaking colour, contrast, etc.before commiting to a final large print so it is important to maintain continuity. I have used PSE from Day 1, I have found it an excellent program and I was just completely dumbfounded to discover this facility had disappeared from PSE8. All they had to do was leave it there - the software was already written for all the previous versions. Elo speculates that removing it could be a ploy by Adobe to dumb down the program and thereby push the more advanced user towards the full Photoshop. On the other hand, Adobe do not seem to have dumbed down the editing capabilities which remain quite powerful so it could be they just did not realise how useful this print facility was to some users. Either way, I feel it is a reasonable expectation that upgrades should retain existing facilities or some equivalent alternative.
    I continue to try to make contact with Adobe to see whether they feel able to restore the facility with an immediate upgrade or that it will be reinstated in the next version. I have submitted three cases, two simply referred me to the help manual and the thrid was deleted without reply. I then wrote to the Chief Executive of Adobe Systems Europe in February but so far no reply has been received so it does not look like I am going to get one. I now intend to write to the Cheif Exec in the US.

  • CSE3 - Making images in color for print

    I am only used to one color printing. I'm using CSE3 and I'm supplying something in 2 colors. When the printers output, they will use certain color inks, and they told me I could use any 2 colors in my file.
    1) How to I make the image a color? I have a .tif and I'm trying to colorize it, and ... nothing. The image is greyscale. I seem to only be able to colorize the border, not the image itself (which is just a black image).
    2) Can I make an inserted pdf file a color?
    The only thing I can seem to make a 2nd color is text.
    Thank you.
    Cyndy

    PDF files  are a "container format" -- they can contain a lot of different kinds of image data, and the challenge is extracting the data without damaging it. That is, extracting the data without lowering the quality.
    PDF files can contain TIFFs. They can contain JPEGs. They can contain CCITT fax images. They can contain straight-up 1bpp bitmaps. And of course they can contain text and lines and all sorts of vector art.
    If the PDF file is vector, ideally you use a vector tool to set its color. That would be Adobe Illustrator, most likely.
    If the PDF file contains a raster image, you will want to extract the raster image without lowering its quality, potentially manipulate it in Photoshop, and then place it in InDesign.
    In Acrobat Pro, Save As is not a good choice. That will save the entire PDF file, not just images, and it will rasterize any vector components. It will also change the resolution, which can potentially lose information, and often just give you a bigger file with the same effective resolution.
    Best choice in Acrobat Pro is to go to Tools > Advanced Editing > Touchup Object Tool, then right-click and Edit Image. That'll open it in Photoshop. Then you can proceed to save it.
    In order to tint an image in InDesign, you'll need to have a monochrome (photoshop: Image > Mode > Bitmap) or grayscale image saved in PSD, TIFF, BMP, or JPEG.
    In short: tell us what produced the PDF file and what kind of file it is.

  • Transfer photo images to PC for printing

    1. Tried saving image as jpeg and as png file (rather than PSD), but got errors when attaching to email as transfer media.
    2. Tried to 'flatten the image' using PS editor, but most of the EDit function items are grey (inactive).
    Does anyone have suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?
    Alternately, can anyone suggest a better approach to saving and transferring images from Photo Shop to a printable format?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Regarding the jpeg/png saving, what is the error message your getting when trying to transfer the media?
    Also, could you make sure that the backgorund image is unlock while editing in PS>

  • Iphoto 8 on Mac Pro email button will not create "Larger" images!?

    When I use the email function (from sharing menu or "email" icon) iPhoto generates the same (small) size file no matter which size I choose in the menu. This happens for all originals regardless of the raw size. This is not an issue for me on my laptop w/iPhoto 6. Anybody??? -Thanks.

    Chris
    What version of the OS are you using? iPhoto 08 won't run on 10.3 and you're list refers to 10.3.
    Later versions of Mail have a setting for sizing pics in the New Message Window:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    That's the usual cause of this problem (but not on 10.3).
