CS5 ePub images

In CS3 and apparently CS4 there was an option when exporting out an epub to not optimize/do-anything to the image files. In CS5 it insists on not only resaving them, but also inexplicably re-naming the files.
So my perfectly taylored and optimized images are now destroyed, and to add insult to injury I have make a copy of my original images, do a batch-rename, and then replace them in the epub file.
Is there a hidden option anywhere to force it to leave my images alone like it used to do?

I will also note that in the process of CS5 renaming the files, it seems that file names over a certain length just get truncated, and in my case files that were in a numbered order actually got renamed to a different order! Unbelievable.
For example, my original files:
Special-Preview-Comic-01.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-02.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-03.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-04.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-05.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-06.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-07.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-08.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-09.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-10.gif
What I'm forced to use from CS5:
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt1.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt2.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt3.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt4.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt5.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt6.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt7.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-_opt8.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-0_opt.gif
Special-Preview-Comic-1_opt.gif
The second to last file (Special-Preview-Comic-0_opt.gif) is actually the first numbered image, then the second is beneath that, then it starts over with _opt1 (which is really the third image).

  • InDesign CS5 ePUBS Image Consistency across platforms

    Hello!
    I have a question I've been asking myself for months, and finally made an account here for the Adobe Forums, which seems to be pretty much the only place with useful information about ePubs.
    I work in a company that's planning on transferring over 70 print modules (between 80-150 pages each) to be available on iPad and Android tablets / phones.
    InDesign CS5 helps a lot, especially with being able to choose Header 1s as Page Breaks.
    But, I seem to be having some issues with a couple of things that's preventing us from publishing these documents to the Apple Store and Androind Market.
    1) Superscript / Subscript not appearing correctly on final product (Though this has been achieved by using Sigil to hack the CSS)
    2) Bullet alignment (The bullets are all aligned perfectly, just not along with the first line, creating a secondary weird indent bug that looks terrible)
    The main issue is pictures. I am using PNG images.   A few months ago, the problem was solved - If I chose NOT to automatically format my images, they appeared perfect on the iPad/iPhone/Galaxy Phone and Galaxy Tab.
    However, we took some time off this project, and now that I'm back on it, Aldiko has a new version, and it seems to break the images.  Now my images in Aldiko are displaying huge, and previously, you'd be able to hold a finger on an image and it would open up full screen to get a closer look, but all of that seems gone now, and I'll only get half of my image at best.
    Checking off to automatically format the images results in terrible low quality images that are so small you can barely see them.
    I've done some research and apparently Aldiko is one of the most used free e-readers for android, so I'd definitely like for our products to display fine on it.
    Any suggestions? Anyone else that experiences similar problems?

    Your question is rather an advanced one. I've observed that most of us who reply to ePUB questions here are still learning to make ePUBs.
    I've been told by someone more knowledgeable about it than I that the link below to the MobileRead Forums would lead you to more experienced ePUB creators who may be more helpful:

  • CS5 Illustrator images can no longer saved as a PDF

    My CS5 Illustrator images can no longer be saved as a PDF.
    Possible cause is because my .ai work got saved as CS6 version at school. Do I need to upgrade to CS6 in order to have my images saved as PDF?
    Thanks -- 3x expensive class, given probable need to upgrade.

    DC,
    Possible cause is because my .ai work got saved as CS6 version at school.
    On the same computer? If you still have the original CS5 document(s) on your computer, whatever happened at school should have no consequence in this connexion.
    If you saved the actual document(s) as CS6, you may have some issues, but that would include difficulty in opening with CS5; maybe you are only able to open as PDF.
    So its sounds as if the expected issue would be the opposite of what (I believe) you describe.
    Is it posible to clarify?

  • (CS5.5 ePub) images size query

    Hi all
    I had some CS5 documents that I converted to ePub and all the images seems to end up as expected in the ePub when I ticked on "Formatted" in the export options. This meant any sizing/cropping on the page was applied to the images upon export. I'm using CS5.5 now and now when I view my ePubs in iBooks images are different sizes. An example is attached - the three images all looked the same size in CS5's ePub. This problem is only visible in iBooks (see screenshot below) - in ADE they all look as expected.
    Looking at the ePub the middle (smaller) image is actually smaller in the OEBPS\Images folder, so Indesign is clearly doing that. The code for the three images is
    <div class="Basic-Text-Frame">
      <p class="authors-pic"><img alt="CL-433686-Bradshaw%20et%20al-SimonBradshaw.jpg" class="image" height="72" src="../Images/CL-433686-Bradshaw%20et%20_fmt.jpeg" width="72" /></p>
      <p class="authors-pic"><img alt="CJMcolourheadshotFeb2011.jpg" class="image" height="71" src="../Images/CJMcolourheadshotFeb20_fmt.jpeg" width="71" /></p>
      <p class="authors-pic"><img alt="CL-433686-Bradshaw%20et%20al-IanWalden.JPG" class="image" height="72" src="../Images/CL-433686-Bradshaw%20et_fmt1.jpeg" width="72" /></p>
    </div>
    I noticed that the middle one is marked to be 71px rather than 72px - I changed that in the code but it didn't help. CS5 didn't add these sizes to the code. If I take them out altogether it doesn't help since the images themselves are different sizes. iBooks doesn't seem to be honouring them.
    The images in ID are different sizes and resolutions. I suppose what I need is a way to simulate CS5's "Formatted" setting. I've played around with the settings (Fixed/Relative to Page Size) but to no avail. I've read Cari Jansens's post on "EPUB Export and Relative to Page Size". Anyone suggest the best way forward?
    thanks,
    Iain

    Cari Jensen did some experimenting with the new image export features of EPUB in InDesign CS5.5. Maybe you'll find it helpful:

    [Edit:] Oops. Just noticed you read Cari's post. She's explored this more than anyone else I know.

  • CS5 - Exporting images and captions to epub

    I am exporting an inDesign document to epub and would like to create image captions that stay with their images as the text flows across page breaks.
    I am anchoring the images inline to the text, and the images are fine. When it comes to the captions I am grouping the images with manually created captions in text boxes (prior to anchoring). The captions stay with the images while in inDesign, but when exported to epub the captions float separately and onto the next page without their images. And I have tried the built in live/static captions, but am having the same issue.
    What are your recommendations for creating captions that stay with  the images in an epub?
    Thanks!

    There is no way to get InDesign to automatically keep captions to images when exporting to epub other than making the caption a part of the image itself.
    If you want to keep the caption live text then you have to edit the CSS. How to get this to work depends largely on what devices you plan on publishing your epub to.

  • Problem with CS5 epubs, won't open in Stanza.

    Does Stanza not support? My epubs work fine with everything else.
    When I try open on desktop s stanza: The error message begins "Could  not load book | Could not find required entry in archive: OEBPS/\Q….."  and then lists the fonts and images with a lot of OEBPS and stuff. The  fonts are all open type, the images are jpegs, so that's not the issue.
    When I try open on iphone w stanza: Import Failed | Failed to download and import ...... unknown file format ...... This book is encrypted with DRM.
    Is there a away around this issue?
    Thanks.

  • Indesign CS5 - png images blur in interactive PDF

    I use CS5 to create client documents and beginning to learn how to make PDF documents interactive.  We use .png files which export to PDF (print) with no problem either on screen or when printed, but when the same file is exported to PDF (interactive) the images are blurred both on the screen and when printed.  The png files are created in Photoshop. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem and have sharp images in interactive PDFs???  I'm hoping its something basic and easy!

    Hi Eugene
    Many thanks for your suggestion.  I've tried it and it works and glad it was something simple
    Cheers

  • Photoshop CS5 .jpg images open up in Preview

    I am using Photoshop CS5 and OS 10.6.5.
    No matter how I save a .jpg, if I double click on the file name (not open it up form within PSD) it opens up in preview. I have gone under Preferences and set the File handling every which way, but it still opens up  in Preview.
    The only way I can change it is go to GET INFO and change the file format. This is a bit tedious when I have about 80 images that need to transfer over to a Windows 7 environment. The Windows people can't even see the files - they are unopenable.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Megan

    Click on the closed file once to highlight. Then in Finder go File>Get Info and choose Photoshop to open. Click "Change All" in the same menu to have Photoshop open all similar jpgs.

  • Full screen in CS5 - broken image spread across screen

    Hi all,
    Calling out for help from New Zealand here
    I have just updated my graphics driver (to Catalyst 14.9) and now when I go to full screen in CS5 I get an unrecognizable image that is broken up across the screen!?
    I've tried all the settings available to me in the AMD Catalyst Control Center but nothing helps
    Cheers in advance (I hope)
    Pete

    If you have AMD's latest driver, then you need to contact AMD and see when they'll have a fix for the problem.
    In the meantime, disable GPU drawing in Photoshop's preferences.

  • Epub image problem

    Hi,
    I am trying to create an ibook in Pages. My document has quite a few images which show up in the pages document and also when I export to PDF, However when I export to Epub some of my images disappear. I have checked that they are all inline and I don't have any columns or tables. However I am getting an error from pages when I export to Epub saying that columns and tables are not supported and my epub file may not diisplay correctly.
    Although when I run it though another epub check online I get no errors.
    Anyone else had the same problem? Please let me know if you found a solution as it's really messing with me. I just wanna get my book published already.
    Thanks!

    You Pages document is 60 Mb. All images are in the same section (Chapter), page 19 to 263. You can see it in the thumbnails.
    I can see that you a quite a few page breaks. You can change those to section breaks in the Find and Replace feature > advanced. Click on the Insert button where you can select the breaks. I got 16 replaced breaks. It might be what you need to get the images to stay.
    You might also have a look at your images and see if there are any large ones in Mb which needs to be resized before added to the Pages document. As you images are for showing on a computer you don't need to have them in high resolution. You can downsize them to somethin like 150 dpi and they will look fine on the screen. For printing 200-300 dpi is better. You do this in an application like Photoshop or equivalent.

  • PS CS5 importing images issue!

    Hi folks,
    i got a problem with ps cs5.
    I opened an 300 DPI A5 document and started to design it out.
    After some time i wanted to import some of my .png files into the composition.
    But then it happend, Photoshop boosted the size up of my image... its an 72DPI PNG and the old
    PS CS4 used to resize it correctly and I just could start to work with the original size of that image.
    for now I am very unhappy about this issue because I have to resize all those images again by hand.
    That means I lose quality and it takes a lot of time.
    Would be great if someone could tell me if I can workaround that problem somehow.
    thank you!
    Pete

    I can only imagine that Adobe got feature suggestions from people claiming that when they placed their different images together they would rather have automatic resizing per the ppi value, and not hearing praise from people like you just expecting a pixel to remain a pixel, they changed it without an option to keep it the old way.  I had high hopes that that checkbox in preferences would get you the older functionality back, but alas it isn't so.
    What is that [ ] Resize Image During Place checkbox supposed to do anyway, if not this?  A quick glance Help doesn't turn up much on this setting.  Maybe it's buried in there somewhere, but it's not popping out.
    I even tried placing images using all the combinations of modifyer keys I could think of.  That would have been a nice touch, but nope, it didn't work.
    A while back I started a thread in which I ended up actually catching some flak for asking that every change in user functionality be accompanied by a setting that allowed users to have things the old way if they desired.  This kind of situation is exactly what I had in mind, but people apparently have trouble thinking at this level.

  • Adobe Cs5-missing images from assets-folders.

    Hi, can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? I downloaded the trail version of adobe cs5 to learn how to build webpages. I've watched upto video 4 of the class-room modules before I realize that the *Assets-folder, has no pre-loaded pictures in the images file or the flash file?? I downloaded it 2x's but the problem still persists?? what should I do?
    Thanks,
    Rosie

    Just realized that LR moved the files instead of copying, so they're gone... Going the file recovery path. Thanks for you involvement ManiacJoe!

  • CS5 Extended - Image Sequence Video Output Format

    Hi,
         I've recently installed CS5 Extended and was experimenting with the creation of a small video from a sequence of still images.  There are eighteen images in the sequence and I seem to be able to open the files properly.  By selecting the Image Sequence box in the Open popup, I assume it will retrieve all of the images.
         What I can't figure out is how to output any resulting video that is created and most importantly, what format it will be.  I would like to have a format that can be used on any PC, such as .avi or .wmv.
         I'd appreciate some help with this.
    Thank You...Vince

    In your menu use File>Export>Render video
    From here you can specify which format and codec you want to use. It requires quicktime to export.

  • Max size of iBook, ePub images

    Trying to create an eBook with illustrations. Sometime a pic appears on two pages.
    Is there a stated, maximum size (dpi) for images, so they don't appear on two pages?
    Is there a way to control things like having caption always appear with pic?
    The recent iBook update (yesterday) said it could not handle designed books with illustrations. Did they publish guidelines other than the Pages template of months back? That template didn't deal specifically with pics, as I recall.
    I wish Apple wasn't so silent on the topic of pics and iBooks. iPad is a great platform, but it seems to have to know hoe to program an app to get something nice to look at.

    I don't have iBooks with pics other than my own, and the older versions I looked at have the same problem. I recall that the double-tap ability has come and gone in various iterations of iBooks and Pages. It worked in the first version of iBooks, then for a little while it didn't. At some point a few months ago I switched from Pages to Scrivener (whose ePub exports do respond "correctly" to double-taps), and only today tried it again in Pages (because of the iBooks update that allegedly makes it easier to produce illustrated books.
    I would like to see an Apple list of what has changed in the recent iBooks update, re handling of illustrations. I've looked on the support page, but they are Apple-ishly vague.
    Some hard documentation, please.

  • CS5 croped images go blank.

    CS5 when I try to crop a jpg or psd file the image on my work area and the thumbs in layers go blank.  When I hit "step backward" they reappear. 
    Any ideas?

    Check the width, height or resolution fields in the tool options bar while the crop tool is selected.
    Perhaps you have some very small values in one of those fields.
    Anyway, you can press the Clear button in the tool options bar to clear those fields.
