Help with signboard size

Dear,
      Good morning. I would like to ask for a help regarding the following questions below and please see the attached image.
1. I want to ask how to get the stroke of the A? as you can see there is a thin silver color layer wraping the A. Is this doing stroke and making it "Outline Stroke"?
From the above I did that. But the stroke literally destroyed/dislocate some parts of letter A.
2. Is there any other way in illustrator to be like the same above image (A)?
I'd check the old files from this computer and I found this one same with the image above.
3. How did the above image happen? Can you please also tell me how? Because i'm going to send it later to production.

superkevs,
For 1 you may select the A and in the Appearance palette flyout tick Add New Stroke, drag it down below characters, increase the Stroke Weight and change the Color.
For 2, the silver parts are Compound Parts (all or the the top left) or just plain paths hidden by other paths; the colouring seems to be a simple horizontal gradient for each, using sharp stops; you can make those by setting two stops on top of each other and givinge them different colours.

  • Can someone help with auto-size fields in forms?

    I created a form in Acrobat for my team members with auto-size text fields that allow to shrink the text when the field size is not large enough to show the entire text. When I then open the same form file with Adobe Reader on my machine with text that has shrunk in some field, I can see all the text and have also a scroll function when the text size has reached its lower limits and there is still more text to show.
    However, when I receive the filled out forms back from other team members' iPads (they use my template created with Acrobat), the text didn't shrink as on a PC version and the scroll function is disabled. I checked the template and the fields are correctly set to auto-size left and they do work on my PC's and laptop's Adobe Reader. But the iPad version of Adobe Reader may cause some issues.
    Can anybody help with solutions?
    Thank you!
    Klaus

    The filled version of your PDF document (20140722 Daily Meeting Report...pdf) is no longer a PDF form because it has been flattened.
    Once an interactive PDF form (such as your template version) is flattened, all form fields are replaced with images of filled data.  You can no longer interact with form fields, edit form data, or tap/click any buttons in the flattened PDF document.  That is the reason why the text in auto-size text fields did not shrink.
    When you email a PDF document (including a PDF form) in Adobe Reader for iOS, the E-mail Document dialog is displayed.
    In this particular case, your team member must have selected "Share Flattened Copy".
    If you would like to keep the interactivity of a PDF form, you can select "Share Original Document".  Please advise your team members to select the "Share Original Document" option when emailing filled forms.
    Unfortunately, once flattened, a PDF document cannot be reverted back to the original "unflattened" state.  However, if your team members still have the original filled forms, they can resend the forms with the "Share Original Document" option.
    Please let us know if you have further questions.

  • PhotoShop Elements 10...I need help with font size for watermark in Processing Multiple Files.....

    I have PhotoShop Elements 10, and I am trying to watermark some of my photos, I have successfully added them one at a time with a font large enough to be seen. Now I am trying to add it using the "process multiple files" , I can do that but the font even at 72 the largest setting is so small on the photo you can barely read it! Can anyone help me the size larger on my photos?

    Thank you, Michael. I just watched the Russell Brown video again for CS6 and looked real closely at his settings in ACR and he was using 240ppi. I changed my file in image size to 240 ppi and then ran the script and the layer didn't change size this time when I ran the script.
    It is kind of annoying to have to change the image size everytime I want to run this script and then change it back again as most of my files are 300 ppi. I used to run his script for edit in ARC in CS5 and recall that if I just remembered to change the settings in ARC to 300 ppi while the script was playing and before pressing 'open' that the image wouldn't change size during the raw processing, but this doesn't seem to be working in CS6. Do you know of a way to use this script and not have to change the ppi for the image to 240?
    Thanks again.

  • I NEED HELP WITH THE SIZE OF MY WINDOW ON IPHOTO 08'

    Hi, I have had my mac for a while now and I was wondering if somene could help.
    I know it is alot different then other computers when choosing the size of the appearence of windows on the screen. I have been using iphoto for a while and when I first started using it the application only took up half of the screen (when fully opened) which i was really happy about since it made it easy for my to drag and drop onto my desktop. The other day I clicked the green button in the top left corner to make it bigger, as I thought it would help with what I wanted to do.
    My problem is.. now when I go to click the green button to shrink it down to half the size again it does not work. I am wondering if there is something wrong? or is it just always supposed to be this way? I am hoping not as i really liked having it in a smaller window. please help
    thanks, katie

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    You can resize any window on a Mac simply by grabbing the lower right hand corner and dragging.

  • Need help with adjusting size for photos in my website

    Wow it's super to know about adobe forum which i never thought existed, i have been to the adobe site several times befor but never noticed there is a forum
    Ok i have few issues would like some help if possible.
    I have a website for public holidays and festivals and i have been really stressed in the ways i am adding the photos which i am buying from fotolia. First in my featured images the screen is very wide and slim...so i am really having hard time with adjusting the photos so they would fit in a way and show the best part of the photo in the screen, once the featured image is clicked on then their is no problem since it opens up in the full size. Is their a speacial tool in adope (i have cs4) which deals with images in this aspect? Secondly, before i was downloading the image with the regular size in which i bought them (around 3000 px) but that significantly slowed my webiste and i had to resize them into around 500 px, but now the image is small. what is the way around that, is there a feature where i can keep the photo big size with high resolution and little px. I see many big nice resolution photos but very small in size. i have just purchased a lot of photos that i would be posting soon and would like to do them right from the start.
    I don't know if i explain the situation right in words but you can take a look here, most photos for the posts are on the main page, please take a look and tell me how i should revise or make better for my photos in the featured images.
    I have very little experiance in photoshop so i made a very simple logo, but is there a tool that is speacialy designed to help make it easy doing a professional logo?
    Any comments, hints or help would be highly appreciated
    Hmmm one more thing....how do i add a pic for my profile? i don't see anywhere i can do so

    You should use the crop tool to crop your images. You should never squish your images, it really looks unprofessional:
    For your problem with saving images, you can optimize your images for web using the "Save for Web…" menu option:
    Make sure that you save your images at the dimension that you want them to display on your website (It looks like all your images in the blog are 620px wide, go with that).
    As for your logo, you can make them in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I would reccomend making yours in the latter. Here are some tutorials on logo creation: http://ibrandstudio.com/tutorials/46-adobe-illustrator-tutorials-logo-design

  • HELP WITH FONT SIZE

    Hello,
    In Dreamweaver, how do I change the dropdown menu of font size to ENUMERATED? I went into the CODE FORMAT and could not do it there. I would rather work with the numbers for font size than the small, medium, large, etc. Any help appreciated.
    [email protected]

    You'll get better cross browser results with ems or pixels.
    CSS
    html {font-size: 100%}
    body {font-size: 1em}
    h1 {font-size: 2.5em;}     /* 40px/16=2.5em */
    h2 {font-size: 1.875em;} /* 30px/16=1.875em */
    p {font-size: 0.875em;}  /* 14px/16=0.875em */
    or
    h1 {font-size:40px;}
    h2 {font-size:30px;}
    p {font-size:14px;}

  • Help with Document Size

    Hi. When I set my document size to A4 and then click to view actual size, the page size does not appear as large as A4 on the screen. The image appears smaller than true A4 size. Can anyone help?

    Your first and biggest mistake is in assuming that page sizes on screen are "real". Though there are some adjustments that can be used in some apps, it basically is unconnected. It's just "a size". On screen you might be able to show a ruler: use that, not a real ruler.
    If you have tried to solve and fix this (not real) problem you may have created a real problem with printing.
    There are also sometimes issues with scaling when you print.
    But I agree, if you just want to print, don't export a JPEG. If you must export a JPEG and use it in some other app, then the rules of that other app become important.

  • Noob Needs Help with File Size

    I created a simple form with no graphics, fonts are not embedded, and I selected the file to be filled out, printed, then mailed. The file size is 21MB. The form is to be emailed so it must be much smaller in size. Once received, the user will fill it out electronicly, print the form, then mail it back to me regular postal mail. Why is the file size so large and how can I make it smaller? Thanks in advance.
    Kevin

    OK. Here's what I did:
    1. At the welcome screen I selected "New Form" and then "New Blank Form"
    2. For the page size I left it at "Default" which is 8.5 x 11.
    3. For Return Method I selected "Fill then Print".
    4. At the last screen I just clicked "OK".
    5. Then I built the form. I put in (9) Text boxes, (4) Text Fields that look like Sunken Boxes, (5) Numeric Fields that look like Sunken Boxes, and (3) Check Boxes that look like Sunken Boxes.
    6. I then saved the file as a Static PDF Form File.
    7. The file size is 22.5 MB.
    That was my second attempt. The first attempt I had the fonts embedded and I had a Logo on the form. The file size for that one was 27.3 MB.
    Thanks for the help.

  • CS2 - Help with file size.  "emptyfile.ai"  is saving with a size of 1.2 MB

    When we save a newly created file in illustrator CS 2 using Mac OS 10.4.11 the file is saved and the size is 1.2 MB.  The file contains one letter (character "A").  Can any tell me what settings I need to change to save this file with an approriate  size.
    Thanks for any help
    Glenn

    Run the Delete Unused Panel Items action. I already did this on all my new document profiles, so there are never any extraneous panel items in my new files. A new file created from Basic CMYK, with an A type in Myriad Pro Regular is 66 kB when saved without colour profile or PDF compatibility.
    But what is the problem? Surely the fact that a working, editable file is 1 MB is not a problem, so what it?

    ah good! then the answer is, ask the printer!   (always ask the printer when using a pro service, that's part of what you're paying them for!) they should be able to tell you precisely how to set up your file for best output on their machines.

  • Help with logo size using illustrator and photoshop

    hi everybdy, can somebody please explain to me how to know the right WIDTH, HEIGHT and PIXELS/INCHES when designing a business card, a post card, or a banner????????????????????????

    I could be misunderstanding your question, but it seems to me that each logo application should be designed/sized on its own, according to the size of the document (3-1/2" x 2" on a business card for example). For a business card, make it look nice on the card. For a banner, make it look nice, within the (much larger) bounds of the banner size.
    There is no "prescribed size" for each individual application. Each implementation of the logo should be sized according to the size of its document, what else is on the page with the logo, and what looks "good" to the designer (and the client).  :+)
    BTW, this is the Illustrator forum, and I suspect you were referring to pixels (?). For actual printed items using only AI vector art (such as a logo), pixels are irrelevant. (The vector artwork conforms to the resolution of the output device for each application, at the time it is imaged.) With the possible exception of web applications, send vector files (such as actual-sized pdf) to your print supplier.

  • Help with image size query

    Hi all,
    Been using Photoshop for ages, and I'm somewhat embarrassed to ask this question...but here goes: I have 4 images that I want to arrange in a tetraptych. There's more than one way to do this, but here's my problem: Each photo is 2400 wide x 2400 pixels high. I want to have a 10 pixel white border around the 4 images, and 10 pixels in between each image. I then create a new document 9650 pixels wide by 2450 pixels high and move each photo into the new document so that they align with each other. I then use the arrow keys to nudge the photos 10 pixels (assuming each arrow tap is 1 pixel). For some reason there is still not enough space to have the images align with the correct border. I hope this makes sense, but I'm obviously missing something?
    Cheers,
    Paul

    Many thanks for the quick reply...much appreciated. I've managed to get what I want via a quick tutorial I found online. Just increased the canvas size on one of the images and pasted the others in. Yes, I made an error with the height (2420 is correct), Cheers!

  • Windows Update Helps with File Size Issues?

    I'm just wondering if anybody has recently noticed an
    improvement related to the file size issue variously reported
    throughout the forums?
    I ask because our IT folks distributed a Windows update on 2
    days last week and since the application of those updates I have
    not experienced the freakishly large file sizes and the related
    performance issues in Captivate. Unfortunately I don't have any of
    the details of what patch(es) were installed, as it was part of our
    boot script one morning and I didn't even realize it was updating
    until I received the Reboot Now or Later alert.
    Anyway, I was curious because I have experienced significant
    performance improvement since then.

    If you are using a remote workflow ... designers are sending off-site editors InCopy Assignment packages (ICAPs) .... then they need to create assignments in order to package them for the remote InCopy user. So there's no need to split up a layout into smaller files or anything.  An assignment is a subset of the INDD file; multiple assignments -- each encompassing different pages or sections -- are created from the same INDD file.
    When the designer creates the assignment, have them turn off "Include original images in packages"; that should keep the file size down.
    Or -- like Bob said -- you can avoid the whole remote workflow/assignment package rigamarole all together by just keeping the file in a project folder in the Dropbox folder on teh designer's local hard drive, and have them share the project folder with the editors. In that workflow, editors open the INDD file on their local computer and check out stories, just as though they were opening them from a networked file server.
    I cover how the InCopy Dropbox workflow works in a tutorial video (within the Remote Workflows chapter) on Lynda.com here:

  • Need help with page sizes for EBay

    Sorry as this is a beginners question but how do i set a layout so i can produce a product page that fits 4:3 and 16:9 at the same time when viewing on EBay with diffarent moniters. My friend has managed it but he does not know how he did it. Is there any material i could read to help me start with a shallower learning curve using Dreamweaver CS3. Many thanks

    EBay is a whole different animal with some very strange code & other challenges.  I recommend using their pre-built TEMPLATES. Download TurboLister2 software for setting up auctions.  Templates are in the left hand column.

  • Need Help with file size

    How do you reduce pdf size file when it's save? I can have a excel spreadsheet that is 67KB and when I save it as pdf file increases to 289KB?

    I agree that the file size is not a big issue at 289kB. However, a lot of the size depends on the content and the job settings that have been used. It is a good practice in PDFs to embed the fonts and that may be what is causing the size increased in your PDF. You can use PDF Optimize (under the Save As menu in AAX) to access the audit function and find out what is causing the size issue. As mentioned, for the file at hand it is not much of an issue, but may be for future projects.
