Help resizing images using aperture

I don't use photoshop and am trying to figure out the best way to size an image of photos to put into a locket. I am not sure if the resizing (not crop) can be done in Aperture or do I need to use a tool like photoshop (or GIMP since I don't own photoshop.) OR instead would this be done in the export settings when I send it to the online printing company?

Jeff,
The printing service should only need to know the size at which you want it printed. At that point they can adjust the PPI to a number that will shrink the print size, but not destroy any pixels.
You can adjust the DPI as you Export if you wish, but that should not be necessary. To change the DPI, choose JPEG Original, say, and click on Edit and you can change the DPI to a higher number, and export.
If you export any photo, open it in Preview, click on Tools and choose Adjust size then you can see the impact of changing the Resolution on inches/or metric measure, which is what the printer can do. In Adjust Size be sure to Deselect the option to Resample -- the latter would otherwise remove pixels and result in a lower resolution.

  • Help - Resizing images WITHOUT awt or graphics2D

    Hi all.
    I have a JSP application running on a shared Tomcat hosting.
    My users can send images to the site.
    I cannot find a way to resize an image without using AWT or graphics.
    (I also cannot switch to headless mode, the JVM is not mine to control)
    I tried using ImageIO but crashed because there is no X11 graphics on the server.
    I tried using the PJA toolkit, but I could not find a way to RESIZE an image using PJA.
    Help ! This is driving me mad.

  • Resizing images in aperture

    Hi
    I have a question, do you know if you can resize/interpolate images within Aperture for the purpose of stock submission. I usually carry this out in CS3 however I am trying to stream line work flow and wondered if this can be achieved in Aperture 2.
    I only converted to Mac before christmas so I am still in the learning stages.
    Many thanks
    NW

    Many thanks for the answer I will have a go at that later.
    What is the image quality like, normally I do the upscaling in CS3 is the conversion in Aperture as good, or is there degradation of image quality. Just thought I would tad this question on the end as I will be submitting to the same location as you are.
    What are the files you are uploading NEF or CR2,
    Regards

  • Cropping and resizing Images using Adobe Photoshop Elements 12

    I am trying to edit pictures for my web site and previously used adobe photo shop 4 which I liked very well. When I try to crop and resize in photoshop 12 have been unable to adjust the images using pixels. As every photo on my website needs to be in pixels then this is a big problem for me! Is there anyway to change the preferences in the settings?  Thanks Tess

    You should head over to the Elements forums, this forum is for Photoshop. Go here : http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop_elements

  • Archiving Images Using Aperture

    I keep a lot of images off line due to storage space. Most of the time I do not run the images through Aperture before they go onto DVD. What I'm wondering is I want to use Aperture to manage the images still keeping them off line. But each time I import the images it creates a new project, which I don't want. I want to put the images into a folder under a different project but Aperture will not let me.
    Am I going against the grain for Aperture. Does anyone have a better workflow suggestion or solution?
    Thanks.

    You can only import into Projects or into Albums - Folders in Aperture are just for collecting together either Projects or Albums.
    I'd suggest creating Albums in the Project rather than Folders.

  • Resizing image using CSS - not working in IE

    Hello,
    I have a standard report with couple of columns one of which a image column. The images are of varying sizes and I manged to resize them to a fixed width & height by using CSS code in page header as below:
    td[headers="ITEM_PICTURE"] img {
      display: block;
      width: 70px;
      border: 1px solid #999;
      padding: 4px;
      background: #f6f6f6;
    }The CSS does the trick in Chrome & Firefox but does not work in internet explorer. Is there a way to make this CSS code IE friendly?
    Cheers for help.

    I am using Apex 4.2.1 (had this issue in 4.1.1 as well) and using theme 10.Ah, the Sludge Sand theme. In 4.x that's a legacy theme only really included to allow applications to run on IE6. It's therefore intended to run in quirks mode, meaning in Internet Explorer terms there's no support for anything that didn't work in IE6 (for certain values of "work"). This means no CSS3, no support for a lot of useful CSS2.1 stuff (like attribute selectors), and probably problems with jQuery which requires standards mode. Adding a DOCTYPE to the page templates to trigger standards mode Interactive Report: how can I display carriage returns?. In 4.2 you really should switch to one of the latest Standard themes, or at least one of the standards mode Legacy themes (those not marked with a "*").
    If you must use theme 10, and there are no other images in this report (like edit icons) then you could add a static ID to the region and use a more basic selector like:
    #static-id td.t10data img {
      display: block;
      width: 70px;
      border: 1px solid #999;
      padding: 4px;
      background: #f6f6f6;
    }However, it appears that one of IE's quirkier quirks mode quirks is that CSS padding is not supported on images, so the presentation you want is not possible using theme 10 in IE and CSS alone.
    Switching to a modern theme is recommended.

  • Resizing Images Using LR3

    Specify Image Export Sizing. Question.
    The Adobe LR3 Help section says in th Specify image export sizing page:
    When exporting using the dimension option that the horizontal and vertical dimensions can be changed IRRESPECTIVE of the original values or aspect ratio. i.e. Like using the resizing option in PSE so an image can be tweaked to fit to better fit a frame..
    I have completely failed to make this work. My output image always appear to have the original aspect ratio.  Please can someone help?   Thanks lots Fred

    From help:
    Dimensions: Applies the higher value to the longer edge of the photo and the lower value to the shorter edge regardless of the photo’s original aspect ratio. Specifying 400 x 600, for example, produces a 400 x 600 portrait photo or a 600 x 400 landscape photo.
    I think you misunderstood that a bit.
    It won't change aspect ratio of the original. It's sort of like the first option — "width and height" — that automatically "rotates" depending on photo's orientation (landscape or portrait).

  • Help!  Images in Aperture are dark and oversaturated...

    I just got a new MacBook Pro, so I decided to download the Aperture demo to give it a try. I have been working with Lightroom and wanted to compare the two.
    So I imported my first folder of images from some conference events I shot. My first impression was that images appeared a bit dark, contrasty and oversaturated, but I figured that was probably a result of underexposure, since I didn't have a lot of light to work with, or possibly from working with flash in dark rooms.
    I went through and opened up all the photos and pulled-down highlights and did color-correction (flesh tones were a bit red). Then I uploaded photos to SmugMug... imagine my surprise to see everything appear flat and light and undersaturated. I couldn't figure it out... I looked through Aperture for possible explanations... proofing wasn't on so that wasn't it. Exported images were given sRGB profile (as opposed to Adobe RGB). I checked them in both Safari and Firefox... same results. Then I went back to the originals and opened them in Preview... they were lighter and less-contrasty than Aperture showed them to be. They looked like they should have looked. (By the way, I am working with JPEGs taken in the sRGB color space.)
    So what happened in Aperture? Did something happen on import? I have searched all over the internet and can't seem to find anyone else having this same problem.
    Help!
    -Erin

    Okay, may have posted prematurely... images look the same in Aperture as they do in Photoshop and Lightroom. So it is something weird with how they display in Preview and online...
    Grrrr! I hate this color management crap!

  • Help resizing window using PS CS4 on PC

    I am trying to figure out a way to put 4 or 6 images on my screen and be able to move them around to compare them.
    Am using Photoshop CS4 on PC and XP Home. I open 4 or 6 files and float all in windows. I then zoom out and make 1 image smaller, so it is smaller than the window. Then match zoom and location to get the zoom ratios the same. Now I have 4 or 6 images that are in windows that are larger than the image.
    Is there any way I can make the windows smaller to be the same as the image other than do each one individually by dragging on the corner? Is there a shortcut to do this? Any way to adjust all the windows at once?
    I realize this is a bit confusing. Let me know if I can clarify the question better. Thanks.

  • Help: Resizing images for Printing with CS3

    Hello All,
      Thus far, I've done most of my printing with my Epson 3800 on paper below 8.5 x 11 which was no problem.  Now I'd like to do some larger stuff like 13 x 19 and 17 x 25.  Image size is 3504 x 2336 psd. @ 360ppi. (workflow is RAW to Adobe RGB 16-bit 8.2MP)  I'd like to maintain the 360ppi resolution, but resize to say 12 x 18 or larger and then apply final sharpening. 
      My confusion is with the up-sizing steps themselves.  I've heard it's best to increase image x% over target image size via Bicubic(?) and then to reduce x% to target size using Bicubic sharpener(?) or something to that effect.  Can someone please walk me through the process so I can get the hang of it?  Thank you!
    Mike

    Sounds like one of those tales from an older technology.
    Just use the resampling method as recommended in the Image size dialog

  • How do I squeeze an image using Aperture or Iphoto?

    Sometimes I need to make something wide appear more narrow than it really is. My old photo program accomplished this in the crop section, but I don't seem to have this option with Apple.

    You cannot do what you want in Aperture. "Squeezing" is more an edit than an adjustment. I suspect any of PS products can do what you want (and much additional flat remapping). You can set one up as your external editor, which will allow you to open it with a Version in Aperture selected, edit it, and then return to Aperture with your edits intact. (Aperture will create a new Master from the edited file.)

  • Cannot resize images after CS5 and CC updates

    I recently installed Photoshop CC and the CC app recently updated  both my own CS6 and CC. I find that I now cannot resize images using the  "image size" dialog. Any changes I try to make in dimension or  resolution are ignored. Has anyone else encountered this problem, or  does anyone have any info which will help me discover what I am doing  wrong? Before, I simply entered the resolution and size I wanted for the  image. Now I cannot .I have tried suggestion here: e.g., deleting pixels when cropping, etc., but nothing seems to work for me.

    Thank you, Mylenium. Just curious... the CS5 update was done before I had
    the CC app. Some CS6 updates were done before I joined the CC (the CS5 in
    my problem subject-line was a type--should have been CS6), and one through
    the cloud. CC, of course, was all updated through the cloud. Am I to
    understand that CC would have done something to my owned, personal version
    of CS5, which has the same problem?
    Not an auspicious beginning with the cloud if complete
    uninstalls/reinstalls are necessary right off the bat. I wonder how often
    this type of problem will occur using the cloud, which obviously now
    monitors my personal version of CS6, as well.
