Exporting photograph issue

I am exporting jpegs with size set to "Original Size" and Image Quality set to 12. There is one field I don't understand - DPI. I currently export at the default value, 72dpi. I heard that in order to print something, it should be 300 dpi so I tried changing the dpi value to 300DPI when exporting but the resulting image size is exactly the same dimension as a 72DPI export.
I'd appreciate it if someone can explain to me the use of the DPI field in the export dialog. If you are exporting at a resolution, then why do you have to fill out the DPI field? What does it do? I see no difference in the final exported file.
thanks for any help..

dpi is just a measure of how many dots the image has to occupy physically or vice versa. most screens are 72dpi or a little more, for quality printing, 300 dpi is believed to be good. the actual pixel count of your image, or the size in MB you see in photoshop is not dependent on dpi. what changes is the physical size of your image.
if you have (for simplicity) an image of 300 by 300 pixels, at 300dpi, it will print at 1" by 1". at 72 dpi it will print at more or less 4.1" by 4.1". the only problem is that at 72dpi, a printer will show quite bad resolution. on screen it should be ok, though.

    FND_LOBS stores information about all LOBs managed by the Generic File Manager (GFM).
    Each row includes the file identifier, name, content-type, and actual data. Each row also
    includes the dates the file was uploaded and will expire, the associated program name and
    tag, and the language and Oracle characterset.
    The file data, which is a binary LOB, is stored exactly as it is uploaded from a client browser,
    which means that no translation work is required during a download to make it HTTP compliant.
    Therefore uploads from non-browser sources will have to prepare the contents
    appropriately (for instance, separating lines with CRLF).
    The program_name and program_tag may be used by clients of the GFM for any purpose,
    such as striping, partitioning, or purging the table if the program is de-installed.
    They are otherwise strictly informative.
    These columns and the expiration date are properly set when the
    procedure FND_GFM.CONFIRM_UPLOAD is called. If not called, the column
    expiration_date remains set, and will eventually be purged by the procedure
    FND_GFM.PURGE_EXPIRED.
    FND_DOCUMENTS_LONG_RAW stores images and OLE

    to activate the OLE server, and it saves a

  • Exporting photographs from iPhoto 6 without thumbnails

    I have a Blaupunkt Lucca Navigator which can read secure digital cards with tiff or jpeg photographs. If you export photographs from iphoto 6 to a secure digital card you export each photo twice: one normal photo readable by the Lucca navigator and an invisible thumbnail with the same name beginning with an "_" which is read as an "invalid file" by the Lucca. How to cancel the invisible thumbnails from the secure digital card? possibly without resorting to the too difficult (at least for me) terminal.

    The Mac OS uses "resource forks" to store things like icon previews.
    When you copy an image to the drive the resource fork is stripped out into a separate file (your _file).
    Easiest would be to just ignore them as they are very tiny in file size.
    You could use special software that can strip the resource fork from the file before moving it to the other drive. Many image editing apps (GraphicConverter, Image Ready etc.) can also strip the resource fork.

  • Exporting photographs from Lightroom Mac to Photoshop Elements Six Mac

    I have Lightroom photographic software, running on a Mac i-book (with intel processor). I have been sucessfully and conveniently direcly exporting photographs from Lightroom to Elements 4, using the export button and choosing the 'Open in Elements 4' option in the post-processing option.
    I have recently updated my photographic software to Elements 6 (for Mac). Everything seems fine but I am no longer able to see or introduce a post processing option when exporting from Lightroom that would allow me to open the photograph in Elements 6.
    Could you please advise me how this might be achieved?
    Many Thanks
    S.J.A

    In the export dialog go to Post processing. In the after export pop-up, choose "Open in Other application". Then click on the Choose button. Navigate to your app (probably somewhere in the Applications Folder) and select it. You should be able to select any app on your harddisk, including elements. You should also be able to set up Elements as a secondary editor by going to Preferences->External Editing. This will allow you to simply control-click on your image and select edit in ... and a copy will be created, added to the Lightroom database and sent off to your external editor. This way you won't have to go through all of the steps you go through now.

  • [Suggestion/Issue] GPO "Start Menu Layout" / PS Export-StartLayout Issue

    To start off with, I have already submitted this to Windows via the Windows Feedback option provided in the client version of Tech Preview.  I have decided to post this on here anyways as this might yield a suggested fix from someone else in the Microsoft
    Community.  I also was unsure if this was a Windows 10 Tech Preview issue (Export-StartLayout is done on the client), or a Server Tech Preview issue as I'm using GPO's.
    When using Export-StartLayout after adding "Network and Sharing Center" and "Devices and Printers" to the start menu, it exports these two tiles with different AppID #'s depending on which user account I'm exporting from.  As a result
    of this, when using the GPO "Start Menu Layout", users do not get the two tiles in question setup, and also locks down the Start Menu so they can't add it.  The lockdown of the Start Menu is by design, however the loss of the tiles presents
    an issue.
    It would be helpfull if they were assigned set AppID's so they can be easily mapped to the Start Menu via the GPO. 

    Hi,
    >> I also was unsure if this was a Windows 10 Tech Preview issue (Export-StartLayout is done on the client), or a Server Tech Preview issue as I'm using GPO's.
    Based on my test, this is not a Windows 10 Tech Preview issue. This situation also happens to Windows 8.1. At this moment, I have to admit that there is no solution known to me for this situation, and thanks for sending a feedback about this
    situation to Microsoft.
    Best regards

  • IDcs3 export PDF issues when viewing in Preview

    I appear to be having issues when exporting PDFs from IDcs3. I have drop shadows on text and objects. When i export as a PDF and view it in 'Preview', I get a shadow that extends the area of the object. Drop shadows are not defined, they just have a block blur effect.
    The thing is when I transfer the file over to my MS machine, Acrobat displays the PDF perfectly. Is this a problem with Preview or is it something to do with the export PDF settings.
    Cheers

    Preview is not capable of handling the advance features of exported PDFs.

  • InDesign PDF Export Color Issues

    So I've encountered a frustrating problem that I know others have experienced. It involves the PDF export from InDesign where the PDF color is not matching the document view. It's a critical issue regarding soft proofs for designs where color needs to match the desired result. I never had any issues before but now it's kicked in after upgrading to Mountain Lion and CS6.
    Let me preface a few things first...
    Yes, I've callibrated my monitor
    Yes, Creative Suite color settings are in sync.
    Yes, I've tried the changing transparency blend space... makes no difference.
    In my case I have an RGB TIFF placed which has dark midnight blue to light blue tones. When I do an export and it doesn't matter what PDF settings I use the color shifts making it more purplish bllue and the lighter blue tones go away.
    BUT, when I export a JPEG, the JPEG looks PERFECT, just like it should and matches the document view.
    So I figured the problem must've been solved with the new Acrobat XI... I download the trial and installed it. I created a new PDF and it comes up looking like it should. GREAT, except for the price to update to Acrobat Pro XI!
    THEN, some message comes up about trusted certificates?! I click ok... and the color on the PDF goes wrong again! What is the problem with this CRAP? HOW DO I FIX THIS GARBAGE? Is it fixable on the old version (Acrobat X)?
    I've worked in Adobe products for years but they are going backwards and becoming more problematic by the day. Not to mention it's ridiculous to have to pay $200 to get a new version of Acrobat Pro after recently buying CS6. This is an insult to long time professional customers, you should be providing this update FREE to makeup for your broken, out of sync with Apple CRAP.

    Well any local application change to the color settings is going to show up out of sync
    All syncing does is match the application's Working CMYK and RGB settings, but the only case where a Working profile color manages a document is when the doc has no profile assignment. So if I sync to North American General my Working CMYK space is US SWOP, but if I open a document with US Sheetfed assigned, US Sheetfed manages the preview not US SWOP.
    I'm not saying you aren't experiencing a bug, but you have to be sure of what profile assignments or simulation profiles are driving the preview and syncing doesn't do that. How you export (are  you including profiles?, making a conversion?), and what device you are simulating in both programs can make syncing meaningless for existing document's previews.
    I can't test X but with XI if you export a PDF/X-4 (where there's no conversion and all profiles are included), the  preview with Output Preview closed shows RGB objects unchanged—same as ID with Overprint/Sep Preview Off.
    When I open Output Preview the initial Simulation profile is the PDF/X-4 output intent which is the ID doc's assigned profile, in that case  RGB objects preview in the output intent's CMYK space—same as ID with Overprint on.

  • HELP!  Exporting pdf issues - no email links and gray boxes around text

    I'm a newbie to indesign, and trying to learn the program as I go.  I need to export my pdf for onscreen viewing.  When I "print" it works, but I get no email links, and those annoying white lines here and there.  I read that exporting would solve the email link issue, but it opened another can of worms for my project.  Now all my graphics have black or gray boxes across them, almost like censor boxes.  But my email links work. 
       Learning Adobe is like learning a new language, and I have far from mastered it.  So when I exported, I used the lowest resolution presets, assuming it knew what worked better than I did.  After dozens of unsuccessful exports, can someone please help??
         Also, I've been reading posts that say to convert all spots to color to resolve the white line issue.  But it's grayed out in the ink manager.  What is the secret to unlock it?
    Thank you!!

    Thank you for any and all help!
    I have CS5.5, running on windows 7.  It is up to date as of 1 month ago.  Here's a sample of my problem pages.  Also, a screen shot of what it should look like.  My guess is it has something to do with the transparencies, since it's 2+ layers of embossed objects.  If I export in Acrobat 4 (1.3) these boxes don't happen. But then I get the thin white lines across my graphics, and no email links.  As for spot colors, I confess complete ignorance on all color issues,  but  I'm trying to learn as I go.  How can I export this correctly?

  • Excel Export Formatting Issue

    HI,
    I am working with CR XI R2 and asp.net2.0.
    I am facing some formatting issue when the report is exported to excel.
    I have to maintain the same formatting as in the crystal report ,when the data is exported to excel.
    My report is a tabular report.I tried exporting the report from Crystal report designer.Not via web application.
    I have used the data only option.When i used the other option (Excel 97-2000(xls)) the text was getting rotated at 90 degree but other formatting was not exported correctly.So i found data only option was more appropriate in my case.
    I hope same things can be achieved by asp.net also one we get it in the designer.
    while exporting from the designer,the main issues i am facing are
        1) In the report some headings i have put at 90 degree rotation.
            When it gets exported to excel the headings are getting exported with 0 degree rotation.
    2) I have applied some back groud color for groupfooter and page header.
         This setting is also not getting exported .the report is getting exported with out any back ground color formatting
    Is there any way to attach the exported pdf and excel file ,so that the issue would be more clear for you all.
    Please let me know if you require more information.

  • Preview Monitor and Exporting Quality Issues

    Hello, in a previous life I was a video editor from the world of Avid and I just picked up Premiere for an emergency side mission at my current place of employment and I have run into a couple issues with CS4.
    1. The preview monitor for the Sequence displays a lower quality of the video that comes from the uploaded Clip and it also does not play back at a steady frame rate. However, when I look at the Clip in the secondary preview monitor that is reserved for clips, titles, etc, the video quality is as high as what is expected. How do get the sequence monitor to playback at the quality the clips are uploaded as and how do I get the playback to do so at a steady 30fps?
    2. My exporting experience was based around dubbing directly to Beta tapes and I never really had to do any digital file exporting. I need some tips on what to export a Sequence as that will retain a high amount of the quality while also keeping the file size to what will fit on a disk. The video length in this case would never be more than 5 minutes as I am only working on sales videos. Also, the file needs to be playable in Windows Media Player.
    Thank you in advance for any help on these issues.

    Please provide
    these details to help us help you.

  • ES11X-G4-H essbase export adapter issue

    Hello,
    i have this problem with essbase export adapter for FDM:
    When i perform export step everything seems to be fine but /APPS/myFdmApp/myFile.dat doesn't contain records that i can find with both on web interface and with a query on oracle fdm's system views "VDATAFACT" or "VDATA" (on repository database).
    No errors or reject records infos are shown nor in fdm neither in essbase (system and app) log.
    This happens with very large input file (300mb). Anyone has some ideas on what's happening?
    Thank you in advance,
    Daniele
    FDM: v11.1.2.1
    EsbAdapter: ES11X-G4-H
    S.O.: Win2008 SE R2 (x64)
    RDBMS: Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 (on linux)

    I've opened a service request. Here it is the last message i got from them. Please note that this SR had lasted over 2 month.
    What they say basically is: it doesen't work but FDM is not designed for big amount of data, so we are not going to fix it.
    Which is the max filesize handled by FDM is unknown....

    Hi Daniele,
    Good Morning!
    I tried to Reach you on the Number Mentioned in the SR.We Discussed This Issue With the Product Specialist and They have Suggested Not to Use 200Mb File, because it is too Big for FDM to Handle it, Please Try to Split the File and Load it, FDM is not a ETL tool to Handle Such big File.Please let me know if you want anything Else on This.
    With Regards,
    xxxxx.
    Hello xxxxx,
    could you please provide me the max file size handled by fdm? I'd like to have some docs on that also.
    regards,
    Daniele
    Hi Daniele,
    There is No Limitation as such FDM is not designed to load Millions of records. It's a End user fiinancial tool, not designed to be used as an ETL tool, so there is not a restriction per say, but it's not designed to be used in that manner.
    With Regards,
    xxxxx

  • CSV Export delimeter issues

    Hi,
    I have column in report which contains comma,tab and various special characters. The report displays fine on dashboard but when it is exported via CSV or tab delimited option the cells values shift sideways where it encounters a comma ( in case of csv) which gives incorrect result for the rest of the columns when report is downloaded. Is there a workaround to resolve the issue at OBIEE level?
    Version OBIEE 11g
    Thanks.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the inputs.
    The issue is now resolved.
    I had amended the " before and after the field in the mapping by writing a simple udf.
    str = '"' + str + '"';
    return str;
    The csv file is now generating properly.
    Since the file has to open as an excel file other options like fixed field lengths and having a different delimiter that , were not working properly.
    This approach works perfectly.

  • Weired apex  export application issue

    Very weired problem.
    My app works fine in apex3.2.
    I exported it to apex 4.0 and there I face following issue without making any change to the apex 3.2 version of the app:
    I am assigning some value to an application item in the login process.
    When I sign into the workspace and loginto the app and try to display the application item on any page, it shows nothing. But there are some authorization based tabs, which display correctly as expected.
    But then when I log out of the app and log back again(while I am still in that workspace), I see the value of the application item. But some tabs disappear.
    Any clue?

    I tried to debug a lot but ...
    Let me narrow down my questions and start again:
    USING APEX 4.0
    I have custom authentication.
    In the login process, code stucture is like this:
    declare
    begin
    custom_login_prc_call();
    :some_app_item:='some value';
    wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login();
    end;
    The problem is that I am not able to pass the value of application item "some_app_item" to another page. I tried to put some debug statements in the login process code. For example, tried to insert the value of this application item to a table and it worked. But when I tried to pass it some other page, I don't see the value of this item.
    Is there any situation an application item gets cleared? I think not. Thats why its a global variable.
    Any and all suggestions are welcome.
