Export CMG from Illustrator CS4

Is it possible to export a CMG file format from illustrator CS4 or any earlier versions of illustrator.

Describe EXACTLY (step-by-step) what you are doing. Your description is ambiguous.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
aren't pixels  the same?
Depends. If you are talking about "pixels" in reference to Illustrator's page rulers, no. Setting Illustrator's rulers to "pixels" does not set them to pixels. It sets them to Points. For example, if you..:
1. Import a 100 x 100 px PNG file into Illustrator.
2. Scale it to 50%.
...then Illustrator's rulers, set to "pixels" will indicate that the PNG "measures" 50 px. Illustrator's rulers are displaying an object measure, not the number of actual pixels contained in a raster object.
If you are talking about exporting an Illustrator file as a PNG, then its number of pixels will depend on the settings you use when you export.
So again; describe fully and precisely what you are doing.

  • Exporting JPEGs from InDesign CS4

    I've exported jpegs from InDesign CS4 for years and each time I get an Export JPEG dialog box that gives me the option to adjust the resolution. Suddenly, when I export to JPEG, I get no dialog box and it automatically creates a JPEG at 300 dpi. I've looked everywhere in Preferences to see if I inadvertently changed settings, but I find nothing. Help?

  • Getting darkened/ washed out colors when exporting png from illustrator

    Hey everyone I'm trying to figure out a remedy for this, I am getting darkened less saturated colors when exporting a logo png from illustrator, jpeg's looke fine, even when copying this logo into indesign and exporting the colors look fine there as well. I think it has something to do with the icc profile being embeded in jpegs but not pngs, but I'm not sure. My illustrator document is set to display blacks accurately, document color mode is set to RGB, assign profile is set to working RGB: sRGB, and under color settings working space is sRGB and cymk is U.S. Web Coated SWOP v2, color management policys off for RGB and conversion options Adobe ACE (all under the color settings options). I've also tried to create a new file for web and copy and pasted my logo and tried to export that way and it didn't do anything. Any jpeg will look fine, the png even in save for web will look fine until I export or preview. My only current remedy for png at this point is to export it as is, then open it in Mac's Preview and turn up the saturation. Any help would be appreciated, I'm also using Illustrator CC and am on mac 10.7.5, thanks.

    Any other solutions? I notice if I open the AI file in photoshop and export the png from there with "embed icc profile" checked then I get the same colors that I see while in illustrator, and when I export jpegs from illustrator, but exporting pngs from illustrator always changes the color/ makes the colors look duller.

  • Is there a way to change the default export filetype in Illustrator CS4 for Mac OSx

    Hi,
    I do a significant amount of exporting from Illustrator and always need my images exported as JPG. The default filetype for exporting in CS4 (for mac) is PNG, and I can't find a way to change this. Since I always want to export as JPG, I feel like I should be able to set that as a default.
    Am I missing something? How can I change this default?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    You can create an action.
    Record the action then go to file export select jpeg and then the quality etc and then exort and stop recording the action give it a keyboard shortcut.

  • Transferring work from Illustrator CS4 to In Design CS4

    I recently started using Adobe In Design for a book layout. I haven't used the program before, but am I finding it relatively easy to get around. However, I have just encountered an issue, where I am trying to get a drawing of an entire golf course from Illustrator to In Design. I have been inserting .jpg files easily into In Design, but when I make a .jpg of my Illustrator file and try to place it into In Design, the drawing looks terrible, it's badly pixelated and not at all readable. I tried to copy and paste also, straight from the illustrator file into In Design but the same thing happened.
    Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks!

    jpg is always a bad idea -- its only rational use is to save photos in a smaller file format when quality is not important. Every time you resave a jpeg file, it gets recompressed and looks worse. That said, your jpeg file might not be as bad as it looks -- in order to work quickly, Indesign defaults to a lower-resolution preview. You can use View:Display Performance:High Quality Display to look at it in full resolution (though Indesign will work more slowly until you turn it back off again). And the true proof is in the printing -- print out a page.
    As suggested, what you really want to do is place the Illustrator file directly into Indesign. This preserves all of your line art and text as line art, not pixels, and your output will be much cleaner. Also, in Indesign you can right-click (control-click) on the object and select "Edit Original" to open the original file in Illustrator to make changes, which is much more convenient the exporting a new jpeg file and relinking.

  • Printing directly from Illustrator CS4

    I'm getting ready to purchase the CS4 web suite.
    However, I've had problems printing my projects from Illustrator - and - yes, from translated Acrobat PDF files. The colors are washed out, and the layouts are a bit off on my HP 9600. My HP 9600 worked beautifully with a Postscript driver prior to my installing Safari on my Mac. Since the release of Safari, the Postscript driver is incompatible and HP no longer supports it. A new, 2008 version of the printer didn't solve the "washed out" appearance of my Illustrator files; so I returned it.
    Can anybody recommend a professional (workhorse) printer (no larger than 13" x 19") that can print accurately from Illustrator - that doesn't involve a "pat my head, rub my tummy" workaround?

    Thanks! I did reposte to the indesign forum. I just though that maybe someone in the type forum ran across this issue. Thanks so much!

  • Exporting workflow from PP CS4 for intermediate files

    Hi there,
    I have native footage from Sony EX1 (mp4 or MXF container with mpeg 2 long GOP codec) which I cut and slightly filter/modify in Premiere Pro CS4.1.
    Most times I shoot in 1080/50i (yes, I need that format) and need both: FullHD for Blu-ray and PAL-SD for DVDs of the same footage.
    Most of you will confirm, that simply downscaling with AME gives terrible results. So I use eg. Dan Isaacs great workflow with VDub and AviSynth to deinterlace and downscale and then encode with TMPGEnc Xpress for DVDs. This gives somehow good results but I am unsure, if I am doing right.
    Here is the problem: CS4 does not allow debugmode frameserver anymore so I have to render an intermediate file for further use eg with AviSynth.
    But how do I get fully valid intermediate video files out from CS4? Uncompressed AVI is pure horror, its slow rendering, even on an i7-PC, and giant in file size. I would like to export with HuffYuv or Lagarith codec, for example. But everybody says, EX1-footage is, as all HD footage, TopFieldFirst. When exporting "Microsoft AVI" with those codecs one has to choose BottomFieldFirst - all other tries result in black video. I assume only BFF is valid in Microsoft AVI, somehow.
    I would like to use Cineform but converting footage with NeoScene is only possible from HDV/AVCHD-camcorders and when exporting with its codec as Microsoft AVI it has the same BFF-only-problem. And I cannot afford NeoHD which would do my job perfectly with EX1-footage.
    How the heck do you export HD footage (with TopFieldFirst) for further use from PP CS4, please?
    Any hint is appreciated, at the moment I am lost,
    thanks a lot in advance!

    Hi Ann,
    I use MPEG2 as the codec.  When you set M and N frames to 1 in the export settings dialog, you get an I-frame-only MPEG file.  That's essentially an intra-frame compression as opposed to MPEG2 DVD encoding, which is a temporal, inter-frame compression (and very lossy).  When I set the bit rate for the I-frame-only MPEG2 file to 100 Mbps, it's visually lossless.  I set the Profile to 4:2:2 to preserve the color data and the Level to High to allow the very high bit rate.
    Sources for my tests have been AVCHD footage from a Panasonic HMC-150 camera (not mine, unfortunately!) and some AVC and MPEG2 HD transport streams.  I've tested 1080i60, 1080p24, 1080p30, 720p60, 720p30 and 720p24.
    I don't use MRQ to export the intermediate because no scaling or deinterlacing needs to be done to the HD footage.  The intermediate file gets exported at the same frame size and field order as the source.  All of the scaling and deinterlacing (if necessary) is done by the hd2sd script in AviSynth.  So my intermediate exports run just a bit faster than real time on my 8-core system.
    (Big kudos again to Dan Isaacs not only for the hd2sd script, but for giving me the proper settings for the MPEG2 intermediate export.)

  • I Have Export SVG From illustrator but it's not supported by firefox 32

    I Have Export An SVG From illustrator till firefox 31 it's supported nicely and today i have updated firefox to 32 & it's stop supporting svg please solve it fast.

    Firefox '''32.0''' just barely started with the first build (often six to twelve Beta builds for a version) on the Beta development channel as Firefox '''31.0''' was only just released on July 22.
    If you got a update to '''32.0b1''' then you are on the Beta channel due to having installed a Beta build as a Release will not give you a update to a Beta build, only Releases and updates for the Releases.

  • PDF displays differently from Illustrator CS4 to Acrobat 9.1.x - no idea why

    My name is Chris Plessinger. I'm the local IT support for a company that produces promotional products.
    Recently, the Art Department came to me with a problem.
    They had a graphic that was sent to them by the customer in a PDF file.
    The PDF, when opened in Acrobat 9.1, shows an image with another image imposed on the lower left hand corner.
    When the PDF is opened in Illustrator CS4, the image is there, but the smaller image that was imposed on the lower left corner isn't there.
    In Illustrator, when you press CTRL-Y, you can see the outline of where it would be, but it's clearly not there.
    I'm don't know enough about the software to determine why it is showing up in one Adobe product and not displaying in another.
    I am uploading the file in question to this post.
    I would be very, very appreciative of any feedback on I can get on this issue. I'm not a graphic artist and can't answer the question being posed to me.
    Regards,
    Christopher

    Sweet.
    But I have a new question now: how (exactly) did you accomplish this? How did you flatten it?
    Thanks for the quick response. I appreciate your taking the time to help.
    Thanks,

  • Printing to PDF from Illustrator CS4

    Hi,
    I have been having serious issues with Illustrator  CS4, working on my files and then at the end going to print to PDF and the message reads; "can't print the illustration" ... It is happening even if I have a blank document containing nothing. Could someone please shed some light on this, as I am working on such large files and the 'save to pdf' is not really a great option as it barely reduces the file size.
    Thanks!

    If you don't tell us about your system and your fonts and all that stuff and what you are doing then there is no way of seeing what is going wrong being as vague as is humanly possible is not helpful.
    Tell us about the OS your application fonts, telling us what is important and not important is not a good idea if you do not understand what is going on.
    For instance Mylenium's posting suggestion it is not necessary to save to print to pdf because Illustrator is native to pdf. It means you can open an Illustrator file in Acrobat no need to even save it as a pdf unless someone requests it. Or if you turn off the pdf compatibility option.
    So if you tell us what information you like and don't like or what information you want us to know and not know we can't help.
    By the way even if the you do not use fonts in a document there still may be a problem with the fonts and font cache, even if that does not make sense to you.

  • 4:3 Export Query from Premiere Cs4

    Hi there.
    Im looking for some advice on best export setting from premiere please.
    Basically I am making some visuals for a 12x9 screen and the visuals have to fit exactly onto the screen as there is a certian degree of mapping going on. I am editing using the project settings DV PAL 48khz
    I'm wondering is it better to export as
    720x576 (D1/DV pal 1.0940)
    or
    768x576 (square pixels 1.0)
    I am a bit confused as to which will fit exactly to a 12x9 screen
    I will be playing the visuals Directly from my laptop via Vga cable.
    Any advice is welcome thanks!

    Sorry I dont understand. Do you mean the resolution of my source media?
    It is all of varying sizes and resolutions but I am editing in a 720 x 576 sequence.All of the footage is being scaled up or down (depending on the size) to fit  exactly (hopefully) the 12x9 screen
    I Have put in a 4:3 guide frame in the preview window to lay clips on. This leaves a small black border at either side as a I am not editing in a 4:3 sequence I suppose.

  • Pasting from Illustrator CS4 to Photoshop CS4 creates graphical glitches.

    I purchased the demos of these products and one of the first things I tried was working between Illustrator and Photoshop, something I do regularly in CS3.
    Right away I noticed a huge graphical glitch when pasting an object from illustrator into Photoshop. Most of the time the object, when pasted, is invisible, has no bounding box, and creates a black messy frame around the document's window. Usually some part of this distortion affects other windows outside of photoshop and my desktop.
    Here's one example of what it looks like.

    No idea where the yellow frame inside my document came from, also a glitch.
    I'm using an iMac that's a couple years old: Nvidia 7800GT, 2.33 GHZ Intel Core Duo, 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM. Could there be a problem with my computer?

  • Backsaving from Illustrator CS4?

    Can you backsave a illustrator CS4 document so someone with Illustrator 10 can open this and print it?

    When you save as AI or EPS, after you click Save on the Save As dialog, a second dialog opens with several options available.
    At the top of the dialog is a dropdown list labeled Version, which by default shows Illustrator CS4.
    Change the dropdown to one of the previous versions listed, in this case Illustrator 10.

  • Create Interactive 3D PDF file from Illustrator CS4 DXF or DWG iii

    Hi,
    I posted similar  question in the Mac Creative Suite section and Acrobat and I was asked to move my question here to Illustrator so i hope no one gets angry  with me. I wasn't sure where to post because I'm not sure what direction  to go.
    I  want to create an interactive 3D PDF, the kind  with the 3D controls  which allow you to rotate the product to view it at  different angles  and sides. 
    What I have are DWG or DXF  files from SolidWorks  that I would like to use in Illustrator to apply  artwork onto the CAD  frame. Using the Illustrator 3D tool I can rotate  the product but I  have no way to export the U3D file format which  Acrobat requires to  generate a 3D PDF file.
    How can I accomplish this? I need some direction to go in as far as bridging applications together in order to make this work.
    Is there an Illustrator plugin to export U3D?
    I basically need to apply graphics to a CAD frame first in Illustrator then get it into an interactive 3D model.
    I tried downloading Blender but I can't even get it to open my DXF file.
    I tried downloading Esko Artwork Studio but that plugin tells me I don't have a Structured Design File to work with.
    I've  read online hear about Acrobat X and Tetra but I'm having a hard time  connecting the "software dots" to get where I want to go from what I  have to work with.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Well, you don't need Illustrator at all... To output a 3D PDF, you will need tools liek Deep Exploration CAD Edition or the export features of the respective CAD programs in which the drawings were created. And STEP and IGES are both standardized CAD interchange formats not specifically tied to a specific CAD program...
