Exporting parts of my image

I wasn't sure how large my image would be, so I created a larger than necessary PSD file. I would like to export as little as possible (it's a rectangular image). How can I select just the image for export and ignore the background?

Depending on what you have, and what you started with, I would think first about Crop, to eliminate extra pixels.
Good luck, and welcome to the forum.

In iPhoto, how can I export images with the metadata - including the title and caption information - intact as part of the image?

Illustrator is chopping off a part of my image when exporting

Okay so I have an image I created on a canvas that is larger than the image. When I export the image as a png, I get the image without any of the white space there was surrounding in illustrator and a very small part of the image is actually chopped off ... Is there anyway I can get illustrator to export the entire canvas or at least not chop off a part of the image if it is going to auto-crop?
Thanks

Add a rectangle the size of your artboard, or at least larger than the rest of the artwork, fill it with white but no stroke and send it behind the rest of the artwork. Save and export. The result should be the size of the white background.
Not a good solution if you want the background transparent. In that case, put a stroke around the rectangle but no fill. Then, upon export, open it in Photoshop and crop out the stroke around the outside. If you are using some other program to manipulate it, you should be able to crop out the stroke there as well.

Error "Failed to Export PDF" with big image on CS6 (32) and CC (64)

Hi everyone,
I'm on indesign CS6 (v8.0.2) and when I try to export pdf with a very big image ( *.tiff, 25000*35000 pixels, ) , the action failed with this message :" Failed to export a PDF".
To be sure that there is no any corrupted elements, I made a very simple layout (one page , and just one element for my image,I turnoff prefilgth and all ressource intensive options, and export with no downsampling or resampling) and try to export with different size image:with 20000*30000 -or smaller -image the export works, always failed with image .The export failed to in scripting mode.
If I diveded my image in four , the export works but this solution is not convenient (I actually made tests for a fully automatised process, and we want to be sure that the indesign component is enough "safe")
I try the same action with an evaluation version of indesign CC 64 bits (v9.2) and have the same behavior.
I can imagine that there is a memory issue there, but my config seems to be strong ( windows server 64 with 16GB ram, DD with more than 100GB free). I don't undersant why-in a "full" 64 bit environnement- it is not possible to manipulate and export very large image ?
I'm wonder If the background task is a part of the problem, and if it 's possible to disable it in CS6 or CC as in cs5 ( creates an “DisableAsyncExports.txt” file in Adobe InDesign executable directoty don't seems to disable it in CC or CS6).
Thank you for your help and good ideas..
DC.

this is a .tif (not a "big"tiff) compressed in LZW or ZIP.
I just tried with another format (png), the error is the same...

Parts of PDF image missing

I am very puzzled. I downloaded an owners manual from the manufacturer's website in PDF format. I downloaded to my MacBook Pro, and on my Macbook Pro, the manual is perfect. However, when I move the manual to the Books section of iTunes and upload it to iBooks, parts of the exploded diagrams are missing. In fact, in some cases, some of the entire image is missing. Instead of going that way, I uploaded it to Dropbox. Once again, on my MacBook Pro, the manual is perfect. When I look at my Dropbox folder on the web (via Safari), it's parfect. But when I access Dropbox through my iPad, parts of the images are missing. When I went to the manufacturer's website via Safari on my iPad and looked at the manual online via my iPad, the same parts of the images are missing. The text is all perfect. I have never had this happen to me before, and I keep a LOT of manuals, articles and magazines on my iPad. Does anyone know why this could be happening and what, if anything, I can do about it?

Not enough info. What version of ID? What version of AI?
How are you saving the AI files? What are you PDF export settings?
Have you checked everything with overprint preview on?

Clipboard export failed because the image is too wide to save as a PICT

Am I the only one who keeps getting this message in a new window,
"Clipboard export failed because the image is too wide to save as a PICT"
while working in Photoshop?
I know little about a PICT file, except that it's some kind of file.
Seems to pop up out of nowhere after I've been doing some copy/pasting.
The really annoying part: it never shows up while I'm still working in PS,
it's only after I click onto a folder or start working in another application.
THEN the message won't let me do anything with the folder or application,
but instead returns me to the PS screen for a few more seconds, then fades out.
It's only after the fade-out that I can click on a folder or use
another application.
I have plenty of RAM (50%) and backup drive space assigned to PS, and
again, this does not happen while still in a PS screen. Using Cache Level 6.

While I haven't seen that particular message, I have had the "clipboard is too large to export" message. What you need to do is go to the Photoshop preferences and tell it to NOT export the clipboard. You should be able to find it the General section of preferences, just UNcheck the box in front of "Export Clipboard"--of course, if you copy something in Photoshop that you want to paste into another program, you'll have to re-check it. But bear in mind the limits of Clipboard.

Export portion of an Image using Lyr "Bounds"

Hello,
I extract PNG export code using listner and it has following basic steps.
Enumerated PNG filter for an action descriptor.
Put class PNG format
Give image path and alpha channels
Play 'eventSave' over the action descriptor.
Now, this will export entire layer as a PNG. I wanted to export just a part of an image.
Therefore, I have modify above steps as below.
Get layer bounds.
Select are rect using top, left, right, and bottom.
Crop image.
Enumerated PNG filter for an action descriptor.
Put class PNG format
Give image path and alpha channels
Play 'eventSave' over the action descriptor.
Do event playback
But unfortunately above additional steps get huge execution time.
Is there a better way to implement same requirement without playing extra events ?
Since I have image bounds, width and height, should I be able to do this without cropping and play back history?

you have to cut out the yellow rectangle and include transparent areas because the java 2d system, jframe, jpanel, paintcomponent only allows square rectangles as far as i know. it looks like you have some manual editing to do with the eraser tool in your favorite paint program.

Export parts of my library (referenced) to be used on other Mac w/ Aperture

I need to export parts of my library (all items are referenced, none internal) to be used on other Mac with Aperture. So my images, projects and albums shall end up on the other Mac in Aperture. A simple proejct export doe snot do the job as the path to the referenced images are not available on the other Mac. Thus, I need to hand them over within the project, or how?
How can my workflow look like to be able to do this export?

Have you tried exporting the items as a new library?
1) In Aperture 3 select the projects you want to export (you can command-click to select non-contiguously)
2) Go to File>Export>Items as New Library…
3) In the following dialog you'll have the choice of consolidating the files in the new library package: do that.
Once this is done you should have an independent library containing all the needed files. When you've copied this new library to the other computer, you can keep the files managed or simply use Relocate Masters to put them on another referenced drive. It should work.

I mostly work on Mac desktop, but use a Macbook Pro on trips. Due to limited HD space on the latter, I want to create a library of part of the images on the Mac, to be used on the Macbook. I do not however want to remove these images from the Mac library.

Choose one or more Projects, and then use Export as New Library (from File). The resulting export will be a fully functioning Aperture Library to either transfer and open on the Macbook Pro, or to Import into a library you already have on the MBP.

Using applet to select a part of an image and then save it

Hi ,
I want to use applet to select a part of an image and then save that particular selected part to a server. can anyone provide me a code for this. I have found codes on the sun site which help in uploading an image but I am having trouble in trying to select a part of the image.

Sorry to get back to you so late, but I was away from my computer this afternoon.
I'm not sure just what you are after. I do see that you have positioned the tree on the labels. I went to the web site for the label company, and their instructions are not too helplful.
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=15sBkl9OZE9xSkHoLMxgwjTFv2VCg1
I changed the white portion of 1 label to black - - this can be any color. To do this use the magic wand tool, tolerance=10 worked for me, then go to Edit>fill selection.

How can i export a series of images in different aspect ratios to the same height

How can i export a series of images in different aspect ratios to the same height?
I wish to make a slider callery for my website. all the images need to be 750 Pixels high, the width does not matter. I have a mixture of square pandscap and protraite images can i do thing as one export or do i have to do it twice? Once for long edge and once for shot edge?
Thanks

Yes, you can but there is a trick to it.
In the Export Dialog under <Image Sizing> select Widdth & Height.
Then enter 750 pixels for Height.
Put your cursor into the Width field behind all the numbers that appear there and with the backspace key delete the numbers. If you enter "0" it will not accept that. But it accepts when you just delete the field for Width with the backspace key. The Width field will now be just blank.
When you then export all image will have a height of 750 pixels and the width will fall variously according to thne height / width ratio.
Or alternatively you can enter 7.5" for height at a resolution of 100 ppi.

How can I select only a small part of the image to clone or edit etc?

I want to select part of the image to clone is, and just edit the selected part. I know i can do this on photoshop but how do i do it on Aperture?

You use the "Retouche" brush in Aperture and set it to "clone".
Option-Click on the location you want to clone from to select a source, and then brush over the location where you want to clone to. The cloned region will follow the shape of the brushed area. You do not lasso the shape to to copy and paste it like in Photoshop.
For example: Duplicating a penguin: The sourcepoint has been set to the beak of the second penguin, and then I brushed along the path where I want to penguin clone to appear.
If I brush the whole area eventually the penguin will be copied completely. You'll have to experiment a bit with the brush size and softnees to ensure that the cloned object will blend in.

Export gives "Unable to create" error,Can't EXPORT or SHARE modified images

I am running iPhoto 8.1.2 and I cannot export or share any images I modify.
Upon editing images (cropping or enhancing color profile), I am unable to drag and drop images to my desktop (gives a "∅" symbol) which I used to do all the time. I cannot export them - iPhoto gives an error: "Unable to create" filename error...
If I look at the "Show file" and verify the contents of the folder, none of the images I have modified appear there. If I look at "Show original file" all the original files are there but do not have my edits/cropping, etc. Where are my modified images going and how can I get to them? iPhoto seems like it is getting Alzheimer's or something...
I have tried closing and re-opened iPhoto and all the images thumbnails appear to be ok with my updated crops/enhancements. Double-clicking and opening them opens files with the correct edit/enhancements. Everything seems ok until I try to export or share any of the modified photos.
I tried rebuilding iPhoto and selecting the first 4 options but after the rebuild the problem still persists...
None of the files that I cropped/enhanced appear in the "Modified" folder for that date. There are some files there, but they appear to be files that I deleted!
So, where are my cropped/enhanced photos going??? iPhoto shows them ok in the Events, etc. but they are not in the "Modified" folder and I cannot export, drag/drop, email or share them...
This has been happening to me for awhile now and it is very frustrating. iPhoto is ok so long as I don't do any cropping or enhancing. If I do that, then it gets all screwed up...
I know that I can use something like "iPhoto Library Manager" to rebuild stuff but I don't want to lose any of my data. I have done extensive work with faces, places, attributes, names, etc...
I JUST WANT iPHOTO TO WORK LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO AND LIKE IT USED TO!
Thanks,
Steve

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair Library permissions.
If the permissions have been mucked up somehow, it's likely that your edits have not been saved.
If the fails:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page Word document by email, some recipients get only one page. Also when burning an image from iPhoto (usually no larger than 1mb) on to a disc, only part of it appears. It appears to have been magnified so that only a part of the image appears. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is happening? And how to fix it??

My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need to. It appears as if I selected the entire layer on purpose (which I did not)
The below items appeared when I opened Photoshop CS 5:
“Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled G & U enhancements. Check the video card malfunctions website for latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.”
(I believe this started after the automatically updated Windows was applied. It was coincident with the before mentioned problem . . . but I don’t really know if it had anything to do with it. )

For the Clone Stamp problem, check the Clone Source panel and Clipped is probably unchecked.
If so, check Clipped and see if that makes a difference.
(Window>Clone Source)
As to the video card problem:
Which version of windows are you using?
What is the make and model of your graphics card?
Do you know which update windows installed?
