Does a linked image get modified at all when constantly resized?

or does it always refer back to the original image?

No you don't need to relink the image after a bunch of resizing within InDesign.
The image data has two references to PPI withini InDesign and you can view this in the Window>Links
The Image will have two readings:
Actual PPI and Effective PPI
Actual is a reference to the PPI of the image in it's 100% placed state.
Effective PPI shows what PPI the image is after resizing the image.
So if you were to insert a 72 ppi image, and then reduced the image to 24%
That would mean that
Actuall PPI = 72 ppi
Effective PPI = 300 ppi
Because 72 ppi is the image resolution
And reducing it to 24% means it's effectively 300 ppi
72/(24 percent) = 300
That's the only thing.
So if your image is
Actual 300 PPI
and you've increased the size of the image to 150%
That means Effective PPI of your image will be 200 PPI
But all this is done within InDesign and doesn't require you to relink the image.

  • Importing Word 2007  documents: linked images getting duplicated!

    If I import a Word 2007 document (.docx) to a page in
    Dreamweaver CS4, either by File-> import or drag and drop,
    images (in the /web_images folder) for which I have already
    inserted hyperlinks in the Word document, are getting duplicated
    and the link in the Dreamweaver page now points to the new,
    duplicate, image, not the original. For example, an image, say
    bike.jpg gets copied to bike_000.jpg and the web page link points
    to /web_images/bike000.jpg.
    This is not only clumsy, it is asking for trouble if for any
    reason an image needs to be updated or whatever somewhere down the
    road.
    I have tried importing with both full and just basic
    formatting, but the result is the same. I haven't found anything in
    Dreamweaver preferences about this.
    Any ideas?

    Hi again
    Thanks for the clarification.
    Okay, so really what you are doing is identical to clicking File > Import > Word Document, because all you are doing by choosing PDF is pre-selecting PDF as the listed file types. Once you change it to point to Word documents it's no different.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Why does firefox keeps forcing itself on top of all other windows? it doesn't matter what website im on, it always does it! Really gets on my nerves when im watching a video only to have it minimized and firefox slammed in my face lol...

    It's not to do with what website I'm on - Firefox ALWAYS does this even if I just have a blank tab open! Seems to happen in ubuntu and windows 7. Does anyone know why this is??

    Hi,
    You can consider the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems Reset Firefox] feature via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information'''. If it is okay, you can then install the Mozilla Archive Format add-on.
    If you have security software installed you can try to delete all existing entries for Firefox and its sub processes in the different configuration modules and try to fully trust/allow Firefox afresh. Even after network access is completed, Firefox would still need unlimited access to its disk cache/memory as well as its files. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

  • Automatically change linked images path in AI files when server has changed?

    A customer of ours have replaced their server and now all AI files containing linked to images are broken as they point to the old server. I have opened an AI file and there I can see the paths to the old server, but of course I cannot just edit the path and then save the file because then it won't open in Illustrator CS3 anymore. Is there any way other than to manually go through all AI files and manually replacing the links with the new links to the old server, or to use embedded images?

    Jasion,
    Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
    In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

  • Does your gmail account get stuck in "Sending" when you send an email in FF4b4?

    Everytime, since I updated the beta to Beta4, when I try to send an email in Gmail, it tells me that its "sending". And i cannot cancel the process nor go to the inbox, it stucks with the notice "Loading.."

    For what it's worth, GMail does appropriately send the e-mail. So if you click send, wait a little bit (it's easier to gauge if you don't have any attachments, if you do give it what you feel is an appropriate amount of time) and then click "reload" you'll be back at your inbox. You can verify via the Sent Mail folder that the e-mail was indeed sent, and everyone I've emailed has gotten them.

  • Safari on my account does not display images when you open a picture.

    I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed. Safari on my account does not display images most of the time when you open a picture like (www.example.com/example/example.jpg or any other format). If the image does not display, I can drag from the corner, it displays the image. However, pdf does not work at all. I have to choose open in Preview to view the pdf file. I can even show the example:
    Sometimes the images work like right now.

    Hi all the real problem was this...
    The issue was that the wee rubber eye piece around the viewfinder had slipped out of its seat slightly and was covering the sensor for the LCD. I Just checked the rubber eye piece bit  pushed right down till it clipped into place and now not obstructing the LCD sensor as the picture displays both with the LCD auto off enabled or disabled !! simple thing but a massive trap !

  • Why do I get an error message when trying to Extrude and Bevel my image?

    I am making a logo for a friend and he wants something similar to the Stark House symbol. (The Direwolf) but as a dragon instead. I used the pen tool to make the shape, and now I want to fill it in and make it more 3D. I can't fill it in properly and my image gets an error message when I try to Extrude and Bevel. Why is this?

    error message,
    Is the path/shape closed?
    Selecting it and Ctrl/Cmd+J should close it if not, then you may try again.
    You may also have a look in the Document Infor palette with Objects ticked in the flyout and the path selected.

  • My mac pro screen has vertical lines... How much does it cost to get it fixed?

    My mac pro screen has vertical lines... How much does it cost to get it fixed?

    When you fail to give information on the exact model MBP that you have, how do you expect anyone to provide you with any specific information?
    I suggest that you go to the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com and look for parts and prices.  That naturally assumes that you know what parts are defective and need to be replaced.
    Ciao.

    Are using Apple's camera connection kit with the SD reader that came with the kit, or are you using a third-party kit ? Also what type of card are you using : SD, SDHC, SDXC ?
    The message doesn't relate to the battery level of the iPad. Only a relatively small amount of power is supplied to the iPad's dock (it used to be higher), so a lot of other card readers can't be used with the kit because they require more power in order to operate.

  • Why does placing links in Illustrator now change the "Date Modified" data for all of my files?

    This seems to be a new glitch that started after I installed the latest updates to Illustrator CC (2014) and reoccurs every time on both computers I work on:
    When I choose to place a new image in my Illustrator file and the window opens to let me choose a file to place, the "Date Modified" field of all the files in the folder I'm viewing (except other Illustrator files) quickly changes to the current date and time. This is definitely happening when I'm in Illustrator because when I needed files from a folder that had hundreds of images in it and I was able to select a file quickly, I was able to do so before it had changed the date on all of my files. However, when I needed a file from a folder that had hundreds of images in it but I took a long time to find the image I needed, Illustrator had time to change the date modified on all of my files. This might seem like an unimportant issue because it doesn't actually seem to modify or damage any of my files, but having all of the dates change on my files is a serious problem for my workflow and file management issues. So far, my only work around has been to use back-up image files, but that's not a long term solution and I don't understand why Illustrator should be modifying the dates of my files.
    Is there a setting I can choose somewhere to prevent this problem? If not, is there somewhere I can report this kind of glitch? I'm not sure if I'm using the exact language necessary to get the issue across so please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks!

  • Safari, at times does not load images on webpages, is very slow, or doesn't work at all. Rarely does it operate as one would expect.

    iMac 27" 2009 intel core 4 gigs of ram, 1tb HD, Current operating system. 2 user accounts, myself, my fiancee's. Each with iPhones so each setup to utilize iCloud. I have disabled 3rd party plug-ins once with only short-term effects. There are other issues with the computers performance and I have spoken to apple support regarding them multiple times. Some include iCloud not syncing properly to the iMac (though it does to phone and online), Finder windows getting "lost" between "digital desktops". Desktop image not syncing across all "digital desktops". iTunes often has issues with syncing with and playing from my iTunesMatch account.
    Safari's issues include it not loading any images on a website, when trying to load a new page by typing a search in the the url it won't even begin to load a page, sometimes it is very slow to load a page, a lot of time it will spend 5+ minutes "attempting" or not even visually attempting to load a webpage without warning the page can't be found, and then of course there are the "page can't be found" warnings as well.
    Very much thanks in advance,

  • Why does Illustrator CS 4 high res pdf ask for linked images?

    I have saved high res pdfs (press quality) from Illustrator CS4 directly, and when I sent these pdfs to the printers, they ask me to supply them the linked images, otherwise they could not view the entire file completely. I thought the high res pdf setting would automatically embed images, could anyone please help me?? Our printers are waiting for explaination urgently and the images are very very large to be transferred overseas online. Thank you!!

    If you made a PDF which is "print ready" there should be no issue, this is given that the printer informed you as to what "Print Ready" was by their workflow standards. The only time I would need to go back to a client for source files which were embedded into a PDF is if there were color mode issues (RGB image needed to convert to CMYK with certain profile) or if client PDF produced without required bleed. If you have exercised due diligence and the PDF is in fact "Print Ready" the printer may not be used to working with PDF files that are truly print ready. I have sent PDF files to printers who absolutely wanted to open the PDF in Illustrator and have all source/linked files because they were used to getting all end user files, not press ready PDF files. Once I spoke with the Prepress operator and let him know that I went through the PDF and made sure the file was exactly separated as it should print, and he should be able to send it straight to his RIP, then everything was fine.
    Prepress people get used to dealing with designers who don't know how to do anything execpt make a moch up of what they want and print it out on their own ink jet printer. The actual file they send to the printer may need to be completely retooled in order to separate correctly for the printing process.
