Exporting to JPG... not cropping at Document Boundaries??? WHY! *************

Hey doods,
I'm tired of cropping my JPEGs in PShop after exporting from Illustrator. I just want it to crop at the document boundaries, sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. Yes, I have the latest update.
Thanks,
Ron Burgandy

I really do not know a permanent solution to this; but what I always do is: Before exporting, I create a white (no strokes) box the size of the documents boundaries (or the bleed)and place it centered within the document, then send it to back on the lower layer (if you have more than one). When you export, Illustrator will crop the artwork according to the white box. For laziness purposes, I've created actions for the different document sizes I use.
I hope this little tip helps you.

Is there a way to edit plist export lowercase jpg, not JPG?

Is there a way to edit iPhoto's plist in order to export lowercase jpg, not uppercase JPG?
Or is there some other way to accomplish the same thing?

No. Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
Create an Automator folder Action that would change the case of the extension on any file dropped into it. Then export only to that folder. You would use the "Rename Finder Items" action.

Exported Aperture JPGs not working on Windows machine

Hey Guys,
I have a FAT32 formatted flash drive (sandisk, pretty standard) to which I've been exporting JPGs from Aperture. Pretty standard export settings, I've even tried it with versions and originals. I export them to the drive, plug the drive into a Windows 7 machine that I'm trying to transfer to, and it will not read the file. The file is THERE, it just shows a generic JPG preview and when double clicking on it will not open. The Windows OS seems to have added characters to the export as well, i.e. a space and a comma before the name.
This happens whether it's a hard drive or flash drive, but not over email. I can email a file directly and it works just fine, it's only when putting it onto disk that the problems arise.
I would use email, but I need to send thousands of photos.
Thanks in advance!

Not sure, but a test we need to run is to Export to a folder, say on your Desktop, and then away from Aperture drag the folder or image file to this same flash drive. Then check the result on the Windows box.

Cropping for exporting to jpg

I recently upgraded from CS - so I am trying to figure out how to do something I did so easily before. I have artwork that has been masked. I have masked off everthing but what I want and set the crop area to my wanted artwork. Then I export to jpg. The result is my image with all of the masked area showing as white - so my image is small with a huge white border. I have tried making my artboard the exact size of my image, flatten transperancy...everything I can think of and I still have this problem. It is like the crop area is just not working, it is exporting the entire thing, even though it has been masked. I only have one layer of artwork. What am I doing wrong?

Illustrator is not smart enough to crop to you artboard if you for example have a masked image. As per Monika check Use artbaords in either the export to jpg or save to web/image tab.
I also get thin white hairlines, anyone know what causes these (see the vertical white line at about 60% of the way from the left side). Exporting to different file formats either gets rid of them or moves them to another location so I can frankenstein a working image.

I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, and much written word, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?....
Basically what I want to do is publish the document into both an eDocument, and a hard copy document. What is the best way to do this?

No Peter, this statement came right off the Apple ePub statement when outlining how to use ePub. the full context is:

Products Affected
Pages '09
ePub is an open ebook standard produced by the International Digital Publishing Forum. Pages ’09 lets you export your documents in ePub format for reading with iBooks on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
iBooks supports both ePub and PDF file formats, and you can export both from Pages.
When to use ePub or PDF
Use ePub when text is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a book, a report, a paper, a thesis, or classroom reading material.
More details on using ePubUse PDF when layout is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a brochure, a flyer, or a manual with multiple illustrations.
More details on using PDF
Creating an ePub Document to Read in iBooks
You can export any Pages word processing document to the ePub file format for reading in an ePub reader, such as the iBooks application on the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Documents created in page layout templates can’t be exported to the ePub format.
Documents exported to ePub format will look different than their Pages counterparts. If you want to get the best document fidelity between the Pages and ePub formats, style your Pages document with paragraph styles and other formatting attributes allowed in an ePub file. A sample document is provided on the Apple Support site that features styles and guidelines to help you create a Pages document that’s optimized for export to the ePub file format, which you can use as a template or a guide. To learn more about using paragraph styles in Pages, see the topics under the heading “Working with Styles” in the Pages built-in help.
To read your ePub document in iBooks on your mobile device, you must transfer the ePub file that you create onto your device.
To use the “ePub Best Practices” sample documentTo learn more about using the ePub format and get a better feel for how a Pages document might appear as a book in iBooks, it’s a good idea to download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document. After reading the guidelines and instructions within the document, you can use it as a template to create your own document. You can also import the styles from the sample document into a new document you create.
Download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document at the following web address:
http://images.apple.com/support/pages/docs/ePub_Best_Practices_EN.zip
Do either of the following:Use the sample document as a template.Import the paragraph styles from the sample document into a new or existing Pages document.
Export the document you create to ePub format to see how it looks in iBooks.
Preparing an existing Pages document for export to ePub format
Documents exported to the ePub format automatically appear with page breaks before every chapter. A table of contents is automatically generated, which allows readers to jump quickly to any chapter title, heading, or subheading in the book. In order to create a meaningful table of contents, it’s important to apply appropriate styles within your document. The ePub reader uses the paragraph styles to determine which items should appear in the table of contents for your book.
Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template.

Problems with Logo exported into a jpg not viewable by Dreamweaver

I have created several logos in CS4 Illustrator and exported them to into a jpg. However, when I am creating my website using CS4 Dreamweaver and try and place the image, it comes up as a blank file logo. I can load other jpgs not created by me so must be something to do with the file.
Second question, I need to reduce the size of the logo so it may fit into a software package for billing purposes. The size must be 325(w) x 110(h), again it won't read the jpg, but it will read a bmp. However, the bmp is so grainy it is not worth putting on the bill it looks so bad. How do I shrink the image down and still maintain the clarity?
Thank you.

Scott,
Thank you for the reply. Is your suggestion for the Dreamweaver fix or the resolution problem?
Regards,

My suggestions are related to the actual file name.. regardless of what app you are using or how the image was exported.
It's entirely possible that a file named "This_is_My_Really_Really_Long_Superfluous_File_Name_.jpg" is the problem. When "My_File.jpg" will work just fine.
Same holds true for "This is my file.jpg" compared to "Thisismyfile.jpg" (no spaces).
Just rename the files and try again in Dreamweaver.

Acrobat will not open any documents, HELP! Thank you!

Adobe Acrobat will not open any documents, it tells me it is a trial, I click on license product and get a thank you for your Adobe Cloud subscription... but then when I try to open a pdf I get the same message it just keeps looping from trial will run out in 7 days to trial will run out in 13 days and I can never open a pdf. I am going to try and uninstall and reinstall. For most of us, not being able to open a pdf is comparable to not being able to work. This is totally UNacceptable. Clients and bosses are counting on my being able to do my job, I can't say to them, "Oh well the dog "Adobe" ate my homework." PLEASE fix this Adobe! Thank you.
Here is a screen shot of the messages...
I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled from Adobe Application Manager, thought all was great when it asked for my user name and password, then when I clicked Launch... same issue. FRUSTRATING! Any one have a fix? I even created a pdf using InDesign, made sure I had View PDF after exporting checked and still got that awful Trial box. The pdf did show up in my documents, but I can not open it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you Manish-Sharma, I followed the instruction in the thread, and for the first time in a week I can actually open a PDF. I am not sure if this will be a permanant fix, we will see on the 30 day mark. I really appreciate that you read my question and gave me an answer that allowed me to open Acrobat. I also opened Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and AfterEffects. They all opened with the exception of a small glitch when I opened Illustrator which was cleared up in moments. See screetshot.
Thank you again! Much appreciated!

BUG: Indesign CC 2014 - significant image artifacts with 'export as JPG'

Issue
Spreads exported from InDesign as maximum quality JPGs have heavy artifacts not present in PDF's with equivalent image compression settings.
Steps
Export spread to JPG (max, baseline, 300ppi)
Export spread to PDF (image compression set to JPG, maximum)
Compare both files in Photoshop at 100%
Results
Maximum quality JPGs are significantly artifacted.
Expected Results
Maximum quality JPGs should be identical to PDF images with equivalent image compression settings (and should be virtually indistinguishable from original files sized equivalently in Photoshop (and saved via Photoshop's 'Save for Web').
Please Note
I'm very familiar with the limitations of JPG's in pre-press work. Please trust that I have legitimate reasons for needing InDesign to export spreads as JPGs with the same image quality as is possible when exporting as a PDF (or using Photoshop's 'Save For Web' function with the source file sized identically as the spread in question.)
Samples
exhibit A: spread exported as PDF (compression set to JPG, maximum quality)
exhibit B: spread exported as JPG (maximum quality)

Rob,
Thank you for running your test!
Since posting (and just before reading your reply), I discovered an additional constraint on replicating the issue:
–it only appears when the linked image has been upscaled* (in my example, 107.1%)
*keep in mind, the PDF was upscaled to the same degree, ruling out it being solely an upscaling issue
–testing at 'even-magnification' scales (i.e. 150%) simply resulted in increased pixelation compared to the same PDF export (see samples below)
–testing at 'odd-magnification' scales (i.e. 101%) generated random artifacts (like those visible in the samples of my initial post)
–as such, this is likely more of a resampling/aliasing issue than jpg-artifacting.
That is, it would seem that upscaled images seem to enjoy a higher-quality resampling method when exported as PDFs.
I'd be curious to see how your test fared with upscaled images.
samples
image scaled at 150%, exported as PDF (compression set to JPG, maximum quality)
image scaled at 150%, exported as JPG (maximum quality, anti-alias**)
**tested with & without anti-aliasing, results were identical

How can I save transparency/inner glow effects when exporting to jpg?

I'm very new to InDesign. I increased the noise levels in inner glow in 'Effects' to create a textured look to my document (I wanted a paper texture and found this method on Google) but when I exported to pdf or jpg, I realized that my transparency effects completely disappeared. I checked my export settings and the flattening tool has been set to default.
Can someone help me understand what I should do to export that textured effect please?
Thank you!

Export to JPG has never been all that great and stopped trying it a long
time ago. Export to PDF and open that in Photoshop.

Save PDF to folder as JPG not working....

I can't figure out why all of a sudden Aperture book pages exported as JPG's aren't showing up anywhere. I did change the dpi setting to 300 and have successfully exported other books recently, but today I finished a book layout and wanted to export the pages as JPGs and they won't show up anywhere.
Also, when I press "Run" in the Save PDF to folder as JPEG I do get an error at the "Move Finder Items" step, where it allows you to denote where the pages should be saved.
I have tried deleting that step and reinserting the same one, but I get the same error over and over and can't figure out how to fix it.
When I run the Print Book and Save PDF to folder as JPEG in Aperture, it will run thru the whole process but ultimately not save the pages anywhere, they just don't show up...
Any idea what is happening and why?
I am running Aperture 2.1.2...

It actually goes thru the motions and appears to be working, but ultimately the pages are not actually created or saved anywhere. I have tried over and over, numerous things, but in the end there are no actual pages created... its weird. I specify exactly where to save the pages, and when its done, there is nothing there....
Also, when I run the Play button on the "Save PDF to folder as JPEG" in automator, it encounters an error at the "Move Finder Items", the step where it would actually place or save the JPEGs to that location.... I can not seem to figure out what went wrong, as it did work before and I don't know what I could have done to cause an error...

Lost CR files after exporting to jpg

I seem to have lost many original CR files after import > developing > export as jpg. I had made selects to develop and then output images as lower rez jpgs. When I went back to the original folders (on an external hd) those CR select files were missing / a gap in the photo sequence now exists and I cannot locate the originals regardless of searches. How is this possible?

Lightroom does not delete your photos unless you specifically tell Lightroom to do so, and this wouldn't happen in an Export operation anyway.
So I don't know how this is possible, but I'm pretty sure it can't be blamed on Lightroom
You need to:
1) check the Recycle bin; or if that doesn't work
2) restore the photos from backups, or if you don't have backups (why not?); or if that doesn't work
3) you can try to download something called an undelete utility and install it and see if it can find these photos (and if you are going to need this step, perform it immediately, do not do anything else on your computer)

Export-RTF is not working in CS3

How to determin one SO/DO is in Export process or not?

Hi,
One of our requirement is to send the picking request IDOC to warehouse, if it is in case of export, then specific data will be sent in the picking request IDOC. So we need identify whether the processing order is in Export process or not?
As customer decide not to use an specific sales document type for Export order.
So we could do like this way:
Check the country of ship-to-party with the country of the delivering plant and then determine if it is exports or not.
And our abap team want me to provide the details logic on this in field level.
My questions:
Please tell me which field is the correct field for 'Delivering plant'...Is it the one located in Delivery order-item level or others??? Or even the deliverying plant in material master data??
Then i check the plant master data table for picking up the country key.
Could you please help me by providing some inputs, thanks.
Would be great if you also could provide some table fields..for example: table name of plant master/table name of customer master data..etc
Thanks.

Hi Prase,
According to your experience, if we want to identify an order whehter it is Export or not, as I should check the ship-to party and delivering plant from delivery order or sales order ???
My scenario is to send picking request IDOC to warehouse upon delivery creation , and in IDOC filling FM, we need the logic to determine the export process then decide corresponding segments being filled.
But i dont know in above case, whether i need check those plant from sales order level or delivery order level??
For example:
For checking delivering plant code, then i need check from VBAP-WERKS(Sales order lvl) or LIPS-WERKS(Delivery level)??
Then i will check the country key accordingly from T001w and KNA1.
Thanks.

Exporting to JPG, but then Editing Again

I edited my .NEFs (RAW) and then exported them to JPG for distribution.
I noticed that they needed to be sharpened some more so I sharpened the JPGs.
Since LR does not change the original JPG file, I can I distribute the edited JPGs? The only logical think I can think of is to export them again, to a new folder.
MichaelM

I'm a bit confused by your description. I assume you have a "master" image in .NEF format (a RAW). You then export as JPG. What you've done at this point is create a new file (JPG) for use outside of LR. However, you say you sharpened the JPG. Since that exists outside LR, I'm assuming you resharpened the exported JPG using an external app like Photoshop. Or did you go back to the NEF and sharpen it some more in LR?
In your second paragraph, you mention that LR "does not change the original JPG file" - what do you mean by that? Wasn't the NEF the original file? Or did you import the exported JPG back into LR. If so, then you're missing the LR paradigm. Your NEF is *the* original. There's no need to create a derivative JPG file and put it back into LR. If you want different versions of the NEF, use virtual copies.
When you export, you are essentually going into your "darkroom" and creating a "print" for external use like email, web, or printer. What you have in LR should be the master image and possibly virtual copies of the master that have different edits applied. These are all used to create "prints" via export.
To answer your question, if I understand it correctly, if you have edited a master image (your NEF) then you can export it again (as a JPG for example). You can keep editing the master and re-export it to JPG. This is like creating multiple "prints" from a negative that you keep scratching or whatever to make changes to it (using pre-digital terminology).
