Help Please! PNG cut out in Photoshop placed into indesign printing with colored box

I have cut out an shape in photoshop, saved as a png and inserted into an indesign file. When I print, a discolored box around the PNG appears. I have 5 total documents done the same way, only one is behaving this way. Happens when I print from PDF also.
I have attached an image, the other 4 in the set behave just fine. I am on a mac, printing to an HP.
Thanks so much!

I think you are a Windows user, but this AppleScript will get the embedded profiles of any placed pngs and update the png's Image Settings profile with its embedded profile:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
    tell active document
        repeat with x in links
            --the image
            set i to parent of x
            --check for pngs
            if link type of x is "Portable Network Graphics (PNG)" then
                --the png's path
                set fp to file path of x
                --use image events to get profile, faster than PS
                try
                    tell application "Image Events"
                        launch
                        set mypng to open fp
                        set n to name of profile of mypng as string
                    end tell
                end try
                set profile of i to n
            end if
        end repeat
    end tell
end tell

  • HELP!! Laying out a long document in Indesign -- printing issue!

    In a nutshell, I've laid out a 160 page document. Most of the pages have copy on both sides however, there are some pages that have nothing on the back and have compensated by having a blank page following it.
    For some reason, the laser printer is not recognizing the blank page and will duplex the next page with content instead! What am I doing wrong?

    Dave Saunders,
    I am eternally grateful to you. You have no idea what you've saved me from and you've given me time to salvage whatever is left of my weekend.
    You are a saint of a man. Thank you :)

  • Logic Pro X with OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 Audio output cuts out 3-5 minutes into running software?

    Logic Pro X with OSX 10.9.2 Audio output cuts out 3-5 minutes into running software how can I fix this?

    Well, first....
    Are you using any 3rd party plugins in your project?
    If not then my suggestion wont be the cause......
    To see which plugins you have installed (Though it's only if they are being actually used in the project that would cause your issue..) you can see them via the Audio Unit Manager found under the Logic Pro X menu bar..... Logic Pro X..... Audio Unit Manager
    Also, any reason you are still using 10.9.2 instead of updating to 10.9.5?
    Do you get any message when the audio cuts out?
    Are you only using internal audio hardware or are you using an external Audio Interface? if so, which one?

  • PDF Comments Disappear Upon Placing into InDesign CS5

    I am creating an InDesign document in which I need to pull information from several files. One such file is a PDF with comments inserted via the typewriter tool.
    Upon placing into InDesign, the comments do not appear, although the original text within the PDF does appear.
    Will you please tell me if you know why this happens and if there is a workaround?
    Thank you!

    To amplify on my previous response, executing a one line JavaScript will flatten all annotations / comments within a PDF file into the base document. This line of JavaScript is:
            this.flattenPages(); 
    This is documented in the JavaScript API Reference that is part of the Acrobat X SDK, freely downloadable from Adobe's web site.
    This function is more fully documented in the PDF file I've attached to this posting.

  • How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

    How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?
    I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
    I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

    You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
    There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
    http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
    Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
    I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

My email [removed], inbox if there is some helpfull guy, who wants to help me a little bit.
    Cheers.
    LM

    I understand. I don't feel like waiting so much time, so I need to choose.
    1 - Start studying my old 2011 book since I have it here, and see if I can make it before the exam is updated (I have no idea how much time it'll take me to study the entire book though, even if I study everyday).
    2 - Buy the Motion 5 book and get that certification while waiting for the new FCPX book to come out.
    3 - Just waiting for the new FCPX book (which means wasting time waiting).
    Thanks for your answers and patience.

  • Help lighting effects greyed out in photoshop cc

    I had this problem and tried lots of things advised on here but nothing worked. Eventually I uninstalled Creative Cloud Desktop using the uninstaller then reinstalled it from the CC site. When I reopened Photoshop the Extensions menu was available and the add-ons loaded. I have done this on two Macs now and it worked both times.

  • How to cut out part of an image and replace with another?

    ok, i'm a newbie to image editing, and i want to cut out a persons face in a picture and put in another face on the picture. i'm sure this is pretty simple, i just have no idea where to start. can someone point me in the right direction? thanks!

    Aperture is not a pixel editor, which is what you need. Photoshop is the app used for this, but it's cost is several times that of AP! As suggested in the second post, look into Photoshop Elements, a slimmed-down and much cheaper version of Photoshop. [I don't use Elements, so if someone knows that it can't do area copies from one pic to another, please join the conversation!]
    And get a good book on Photoshop or Elements, there's a huge learning curve involved. I'd suggest going to a book shop, pulling a few such books off the shelf and check their index for editing techniques. Sometimes you'll find one book that gives you the exact step-by-step instructions for doing what you want. Then there'll be others that don't get into the topic or do a poor job.

  • Audio cuts out at times for a few seconds with VOD

    While watching VOD the audio will cut out at times when the program is playing.  I have reset the boxes, and router with no change.  I have read on a post that someone had pixilation issues and the Verizon techs hooked up a cat5e from the ONT directly into the router, which solved her issues.  Is this something I can do, and will it help my issues?
    Thanks, Charlie

    Today I tried to find the answer to my question, again... And tot my surprise I found it!! When I played music with winamp I saw in the systemtray that the Creative volumecontrol actually did mute the sound automatically for a few seconds. The reason for this I don't know. In de surround mixer I clicked standard. Music is playing ok now., no more interupptions. Seems to me something is wrong with the Creative software.....

    My audio cuts out in any completely downloaded iTunes movie (SD or HD) 10-15 minutes into watching it in iTunes how can I fix this?
    I have to shut down iTunes completely and restart it again to get the audio to come back. 10-15 minutes later the audio disapears again.

  • How do I fix this problem placing Photoshop TIFF into InDesign?

    I am trying to place a Photoshop TIFF into an InDesign document but I am getting a pixelated/jagged version of the TIFF. What could be causing this? The original art looks fine in Photoshop. It is a TIFF of less than 8 MB, CMYK, about 3.5 by 3.5 inches. It includes image and text both created in Photoshop. When placed into an InDesign file, the art looks awful and the text is even worse. The text can barely be deciphered. I tried exporting the TIFF to PDF and placing that file, but it also looks bad.
    Any solutions anyone?

    How it looks in ID is basically irrelevant. How does it look in print or an exported PDF? Did you scale the image in ID?
    In Photoshop, which is a pixel editior, you are viewing the actual image pixels. In ID, which is a page layout app, you are looking at a screen preview jpeg that may or may not look terrific, depending on the image. If you've scaled the image you are chagning the "effective resolution" and it may not be high enough. You didn't mention waht it was in Photoshop at the saved dimensions, so it's hard to know if there was ever enough resolution to prevent jaggies. It's highly unlikely that text created in photoshop will NOT look pixelated unless the effective resolution is well north of 600 ppi.

  • Image Placed into InDesign CS6 appears reversed/missing

    I am using InDesign CS6 on Windows 7, 64-bit.
    I have worked in InDesign off and on for the past three years and have never experienced this problem before. I have always placed images into InDesign with no problem and now I have this *one* image that won't place correctly, after placing two images in the same fashion.
    The original image (JPEG) was opened in Photoshop CS6. I removed the background. Changed to CMYK. Saved as .TIFF, preserved as transparency. Then placed in InDesign.
    It either shows up "Reversed", like this (no transparency when saving as a TIFF in Photoshop first):
    Or just kinda outlined, like this (saving as a TIFF with a transparency in Photoshop first):
    I can't see the image. It prints this way, too.
    I've tried other images, they are all fine. I always place TIFFs with no problem, so I'm really stumped here.
    I've tried placing as a .PSD, .EPS and .TIFF and nothing works. The two other images to the left of the weird one were placed in the same way with no problems.
    Any ideas?

    OMG. THAT WORKED. I have lost two hours of my life trying to figure that out. I am forever thankful to you!!!
    Here's the settings that WORKED:

  • Maintaining internal links on Word files placed into Indesign

    I want to bring a word file into Indesign, which has a very large number of internal links. When I place the file in Indesign, the external  hyperlinks transfer as well as bookmarks, but the internal links do not., The blue colour and the underlining format transfers but the actual links are lost. I don't want to re-link all these links within the document again. Is there a way to bring the internal links into inDesign with the Word file?

    Hi everyone,
    I know this is from a few months ago, but I just found it!
    I deal with PDFs coming from Word that have to go on press a lot. This is what I know. Word's color space is RGB, so we're already starting out with a problem.
    1. Open the Printers in the Control Panel folder
    Choose the Adobe PDF Driver
    Right click to open Properties
    Go to Device Settings
    Convert gray text to Postscript gray: change this setting to Yes
    Convert gray graphics to Postscript gray: change this setting to Yes
    2. When you print to Adobe PDF, choose Press Quality job options. This may only show up for those who have the full blown Acrobat installed. If you don't have this, go through all of the job options, especially Color and Fonts. In the Fonts tab, make sure that Embed is turned ON and that there are no fonts in the Never Embed column. If there are, delete them. Under Color, either leave unchanged (which is fine if your doc is all text and you've changed the settings on the driver described above), or choose "Convert Color to CMYK".
    3. Within Acrobat (not Reader), you can view separations: under Advanced menu, then Output Preview. Turn color plates off and on as desired. I usually turn off black and scroll through the file. If anything shows up on the page, I know I have something to fix. (For B&W docs.)
    4. You can fix a lot of things without having PitStop, but if you deal with having to get PDFs in shape to go on press, Pitstop is well worth the investment!
    5. I agree that it's not necessary to place PDFs into InDesign, unless there's something else you're adding to the pages.
    I hope this helps!
