From photoshop to illustrator

Let me put it this way: If I make the whole wall with all kinds of pics and illustrations in a scale and 300dpi resolution in photoshop, can I save it as let's say a pdf and then open it in illustrator and enlarge it to the real scale of the wall without losing quality?

  • File displaying different from Photoshop to Illustrator

    I have a simple chalkboard background I made in Photoshop and I'm importing into Illustrator. My issue is the file displays completely different from Photoshop to Illustrator. See image below.
    I've had this happen to other files but this one is so incredibly different, I can't understand what's happening and I can't manage the design with it being this different. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thanks again Monika. I can't figure this out. The color management is all synchronized among all my Adobe applications. Yes the file is in layers and when I view the JPG in Photoshop, it looks as it should. It's only when I bring it into Illustrator does it look like that. I opened up a new Illustrator doc and placed the same JPG (as well as dragged the PSD file directly from the Photoshop window into Illustrator) and it looks better and more like it should. My other doc was a new doc too so I'm not sure what happened. At any rate, I can't explain what happened and I'm just hoping it doesn't happen again.
    Thanks for your help!

  • CS6  Just upgraded my mac to Yosemite but now can't import graphics from photoshop to illustrator.  Does anyone know a solution

    CS6  Just upgraded my mac to Yosemite but now can't import graphics from photoshop to illustrator.  Does anyone have a solution?

    My advice to you is, if you can, drop back to Mavericks. You will have better luck since CS4 is not supported (nor are CS5 or CS5.5) on Yosemite. The other alternative is to uninstall the entire suite, run the cleaner tool and reinstall completely from the original discs or a new download. Be prepared for other fun stuff as well.

  • Having a problem moving a text document from Photoshop to Illustrator.. Won't let me edit the text

    Hi there,
    I'm a complete technophobe so the answer to this could be quite obvious. I had to create a text using photoshop because of the inside of the text... i.e using a lobster font and it was pink glitter inside it so to give a girly effect.. It's for a college asignment.
    I have to use illustrator CS6 to put that text on a b/ground I already made in Illustrator but the .psd doc won't let me edit it in illustrator, it's almost like a PDF. Help!
    I hope it's not too confusing to understand, thanks in advance.

    Erica,
    is there a simpler way of explaining that?
    And I feared it was too easy to understand.
    You may, in front of the overall background (which you may lock or hide):
    1) Create a background with the appearance you wish to apply to the letters, such as a solid cpolour, a gradient or other clolour transition, and some pink glitter in front of it, you may Group all this for convenience; and you may use raster artwork (maybe from Photoshop) if you like;
    2) With the Type Tool create the live Type on top of 1), you may move and size it to fit (roughly);
    3) Select 1) and 2) and Object>Clipping Mask>Make; 2) will become the (invisible) Clipping Path showing the parts of 1) that are behind it and hide the rest.
    As mentioned, you may Direct Select 1) or 2) and edit or move them about relative to the background and each other.

  • Some colours change from Photoshop to Illustrator in Swatches saved in Exchange format

    When I save a colour swatch in Photoshop Extended CS3 in the .ase format and load it into Illustrator CS3, some of the colours change completely - e.g. a bright orange #ffbb29 (in Ps) appears as a pale grey blue #B2BACE (in Ai). The problem seems to be with the use of upper or lower case - if the orange is question is saved as #FFBB29, it appears correctly in Illustrator (although bizarrely this seems to only affect some colours that feature (hex) letters).
    Is there a way of getting Photoshop to automatically give the values in upper case? I know I could just retype them all, but it would take ages (I use Swatches all the time) and it kind of defeats the whole Exchange idea. Or is there another way round the problem? My colour settings are synched (via Bridge) across CS3 Design Premium. Thanks in advance.

  • Draging images from photoshop to illustrator

    Hello,
    I am attempting drag images made in photoshop cs5 in illustrator cs5 on a mac. However when I do this any transparent portions of the photoshop image fill with white. Is there any way to keep that from happening?

    As emmysue32 wrote you can also used advanced tiffs or transparrent ftiffs as they are sometimes known which Illustrator CS 4 and later support which also means they be placed perserving thier layers as with .psd files.
    However, at least for Illustrator it is not necessary to check the Preservve Transparency option as long as youy tell the diting application to wrtie layers.

  • Spot color from Photoshop to Illustrator

    Man, this used to be not a big deal.  I usually print in CMYK, but I am laying out bz cards that need to be black and pantone 200u, just 2 color.  When I transfer the logo from PS to Illustrator the pantone 200 changes values.  I tried putting it in ID and it changes values there too.  The printer needs it to be pantone 200 and the press will print it that color.  It is a jpeg file.  Do I convert to CMYK or should it still be RGB?  How can I import it into Illustrator and it stay pantone 200.  I'm not sure of the values of the color now because in every application it is different.  Where can I find the values?  Years ago you would give it to the printer in black for spot on different layers and they would handle it.
    hear are my 20 questions...
    how can I import spot from PS to Illustrator
    The values of pantone 200u
    leave rgb or cmyk
    jpeg is this ok or do I need to change it to another format

  • Passing a variable from Photoshop to Illustrator

    Alright, so I've been on here a lot the last couple weeks trying to figure out BridgeTalk, and I am starting to get the hang of it.  I am writing an Illustrator script which will open a specified template and then grab Photoshop's active document and place it on the template.  I have everything working perfectly with one hiccup.  The script goes to Photoshop, grabs the filepath, opens the Illustrator doc, and places the file perfectly.  BUT it always takes two runs through the script for it to work.  It's the weirdest thing.  So if I run the script when PS first opens, it gives me an error; if I run it again it works perfectly, but if I close that PS doc and open a new one, then run the script, it places the previous document! 
    I am stumped and have tried everything I can think of.  Here is a simplified version of the part of the script that produces the error.  The first time I run the script, "alert(psFile)" is completely wrong, but when I run it again it works perfectly. 
    #target illustrator
    var psFile;
    infoFromPS ();
    var illTemp = File("/Users/art1/Desktop/template.ai");
        app.open(illTemp);
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    function infoFromPS() {
       var bt = new BridgeTalk;
       bt.target = "photoshop";
       bt.body = "app.activeDocument.fullName;"
       bt.onResult = function(resObj) {
          var myResult = resObj.body;
          psFile = File(myResult);
       bt.send();
    alert(psFile);

    this simplified version is so simplified that is not connecting illustrator with photoshop in any way to be able to tell...but in any case, your script is not waiting for the result, it keeps going after you send it, that's why you get an error the first time, then after you get the previous result
    it goes like this the first time
    var psFile; // undefined
    infoFromPS (); // I'm not waiting for bridgeTalk to fetch me the result
    alert(psFile); // psFile is undefined,
    //...bridgeTalk returns the result after you're done
    psFile = 'some file';
    second time, or after you change the ps activeDocument
    var psFile; // I still have in memory the result from previous run ('some file')
    infoFromPS (); // I'm still not waiting for the result
    alert(psFile); // psFile is 'some file' from previous run,
    //...bridgeTalk returns the result after you're done
    psFile = 'some other file';

  • Help with imported eps files from photoshop and illustrator using PANTONE

    I am new to InDesign and running into some very frustrating issues. I am preparing a catalogue for print which was created in Quark XPress previously. I tried converting it initially but had all kinds of strange things happening with type re-wrapping. The printer advised to recreate in InDesign. FIne by me because I'll learn as I go along.
    So I created a page in InDesign and place and eps file created in Illustrator using a spot Pantone color and a halftone created in Photoshop also using the same spot Pantone color. In InDesign the color swatch menu show both colors one as 228 C and the other as 228 C 1. How do I get just one definition for PMS228 coated that works across all three programs? Stuff like this pisses me off. Adobe should have one definition across all three.
    Help!!!

    My best guess for the two definitions is that the CMYK values of the colours do not match, so InDesign treats them separately. You can merge them using the In Manager. Open the Swatches panel and select Ink Manager from the flyout menu. Select PANTONE 228C 1, go to the Ink Alais pop-up menu, and select PANTONE 228. Now InDesign will treat the two colours as one separation on output.
    You should also take the time to open each graphic and resave as a native file. This means .psd for Photoshop and .ai for Illustrator. While there, see if you can make sure the colour names and definitions are consistent.

  • Export 3D grid structure from Photoshop to Illustrator

    Hi everyone,
    I have Photoshop CS4 Extended and have created a 3D sphere using the 3D menu. Under the render settings I have it set to edge style so that all you're seeing is the grid structure that makes up the object.
    I would like to be able to export this grid structure so that I can manipulate it further in Illustrator. Can someone tell me if this is possible?
    Appreciate any help.

    Ok you are revolving a path and therefor you have to have a half circle path yo do that of course by drawing a full Circle closed path then say select the left most point and delete it now you have a half Circle. Now you revolve the path and you will have your globe this is what it looks like when the effect is not applied or visible. You know in CS 4 you can turn of the visibility of an effect.

  • Shadow disappears from Photoshop to Illustrator

    I have a tiff with a transparent back ground with a low opacity shadow. I drop this into photoshop, it looks fine. I drop it into Illustrator and the shadow disappears. I need this image to have a shadow in Illustrator. I've tried exporting as a photoshop file, Photoshop EPS etc. I need it to be CMYK (so no pngs). HELP!

    But why would I be able to SEE the shadow in photoshop but not Illustrator if there was a clipping mask? This is what it looks like in Photoshop, followed by what it looks like in Illustrator. The center shadow stays but the shadows on the outside of the circle of cheese on the bottom right disappears.

  • Vector - From Photoshop to Illustrator ***CAN IT BE DONE?****

    I'm sure this is basic for you guys,
    But I have a situation here...I made a  design in Ps ( 3" x 4" label at 300dpi) its very simple; one font, one logo and a QR code. Every layer was converted into a custom shape and all merged into one vector layer. I then flattened the artwork and saved it into a PDF.
    The print shop I am using said it would not work because it was made in Ps. They said to recreate it in Illustrator and then save it as PDF.
    Can I transfer the one layer that I made into Illustrator?...I tried it and it worked. it was set as a vector, and I was able to enlarge it, while it keeping its quality.
    BUT, the print shop still said that it would not work, because the artwork does not originate from Illustrator.
    Advice anyone?

    I can tell from the image that the black in the file is using a mixture of CMYK coloring and is actually a rich black and not just a solid black which is likely why the printer is telling you there is a problem. (I'm actually surprised that they didn't give you more information about why they can't use your file other than "it wasn't created in Illustrator".)
    You can fix this by changing the black to a spot color or just setting it to use grayscale at 100% black. Then you should be able to resave the file from within Illustrator and send them the file.
    Also, since the black is set to the boundaries of the document you'll want to expand the edges so they spans over the edge of the sides. Otherwise you won't have any bleeds on the file in order to give enough space so that trimming out the printed piece won't potentially have white lines from where the black didn't span far enough.

  • Transferring from photoshop to illustrator

    Hi I am created my signature/logo for my salon through Photoshop.  I am now trying to send it to other people to get it made into my sign for the outside of my building.  I was in a Photoshop forum with someone for a while and they suggested that I ask the question in an Illsutrator forum instead.  His suggestion for being able to make it in a format that someone could create it in a sign was that I mightget away using Live Trace but he thinks that I wuold get a better result using the pen tool to trace manually.  Although, I am not extremely familiar with the pen tool.  I can also send screen shots or attachements of my Photoshop document.  It is a signature that I signed and scanned on a piece of paper and made with a transparent background.

  • Illustration from Photoshop to Illustrator

    How do you get a Photoshop illustration into Illustrator without it being pixelated in Illustrator

    Is the Photoshop illustration made of pixels or vectors? if it's pixels then you'll probably need to run it through Live Trace in Illustrator.

  • Logo/ from Photoshop to Illustrator

    I have a logo I designed in Photoshop and I need to re-do it in Illustrator. I just need some tips and tricks on working in Illustrator.
    (Logo at Bottom)
    Now I used the bevel/ emboss effect a lot on this, when I go to bevel in illustrator (effects>3D>extrude/bevel) it just doesn't work as nice as it does in Photoshop, Is there another way to create the bevel effect ?.... Also I am using a texture overlay on the medal piece. What the best way to do this in Illustrator... What I did was, I took the texture in Photoshop and made the highest contrast I could possible. Then I did an image trace on that in Illustrator. Then created made a mask of that to a circle. That made my circle disappear so had to create a new circle for the background... Is this the best method for overlaying a texture?

    Few spots aren't perfect, but I think I am happy with this.

  • Exporting from photoshop to illustrator

    Hi
    I have photoshop files that have UI elements but i dont know how to use it in illustrator as with normal copy and paste it doesnt work, i tried
    to open the files in illustrator and although i choosed the option convert layers to objects but that doesnt work as all layers are converted to
    a one whole image ?
    Kind Regards

    If you save a layered image in Photoshop as a .psd file, you should be able to open the image in Illustrator and retain the layers. Try following the steps below:
    First save your image in Photoshop in .psd format, and make sure you have the save layers option checked. Be sure that you haven't flattened your artwork, and that all of your layers are visible. If you have a layer in Photoshop that you have hidden, it will NOT import into Illustrator.
    In Illustrator, go to File > Open... and select your .psd image. Make sure you select "Convert Layers to Objects".
    You should now have your layers intact as they were in Photoshop.
    If you're still having issues after going through this process again, please let us know.
