How do I get a 300dpi image into a document as required by CreateSpace.

I need to submit 300 dpi photos in my exported .pdf file to CreateSpace to render sharp clear images when printed on paper. This was no problem in Pages '09. But now dragging, importing, or pasting a 122.9 MB 4800 x 6400 pixel  2000 pixel per inch photo into an iPages 5.0 document yields a 77 KB, 173x231 72 pixel per inch photo in the document. This is an extreme example but all photos seem to have been downsampled to 72 pixels per inch. I understand some of the complexities of translating DPI to PPI and back but throwing away 122.823 MB of data has got to hurt rendering.  Is this a new iPages "Feature" or should I be using a different approach? I'm using Preview to check the image DPI and size.

I created my document in pages. Dragged photos, that I had resized and resampled in Preview to make sure they were 300DPI at least, into the document.  I then export the document to .pdf using BEST image quality.
The exported document was flagged by CreateSpace for 72DPI rather than 300DPI images. When I checked the document I found when I selected an image, copied it, and brought it up in Preview as New From Clip board, it was indeed 72DPI and much smaller than the original that I drug into the document.
I then found that this happens immediately when it is copied from a folder and pasted into Pages. Copy a 1 MB image and paste it to both Preview and Pages.  Then go into pages, select the image, copy it, and paste it into Preview. Show inspector on the two images I've gone from 1.4MB to 300DPI .tiff file to 44KB 72DPI .png file.
The same happens on .jpg files.

    Scan buttons are displayed and work, as does print.

    What installing the twain plug-in, you mean? Go to your applications folder. Find the Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 folder. Look in there for a folder called support files, then for a folder called optional plugins. In the Optional Plugins folder, there should be a folder called ImportModules. Just drag that from the Optional Plugins folder to the regular Plugins folder.
    This will be infinitely easier to do if you put your applications folder window into list view, not the default icon view. To do that, click this button at the top of the window:

    My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address.  I had to quit using this address  as it got hacked.  How do I get my iTunes downloads into my new iTunes account that was created with a new gmail address?  In my old iTunes account (with the old gmail address,  I can't 'update' my email address or even 'add an alternate address' as I had already created this gmail account and inputting the new address into iTunes gives me the 'pop-up' that 'this account is already in use.'   Advice please!

    Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

  • How do I get my tabs back into the main window?

    I've had a problem with an add-on displaying a small extra window every time I open a session for some months now: I know you're supposed to try disabling and re-enabling every add-on you've got to find out which one is responsible, but this is a work computer and with all the add-ons I have, it would take too long, so I've just closed the extra window every time and got on with my work. However, for some reason today my forty-odd tabs have all opened in the small extra window, which has no tab bar, navigation bar or menu button. How do I get my tabs back into the main window of Firefox, or alternatively get that window to behave like a normal Firefox window so I can use it?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • How can you get a mirror image of a photo on iPhoto?

    How can you get a mirror image of a photo on iPhoto?

    By using an external editor. Preview is already on your Mac. It's called 'Flip Horizontal'
    In order of price here are some other suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

    I think i want to tell icloud to sync with Outlook and make icloud the controlling account.  NOT outlook to iclout.  there are 6325 contacts in icloud.  only 12 in outlook.  about 10 days ago i had same amount in OL and icloud.  i had to restore my computer PC.  My iphone is correct.  My PC/ Outlook i not. thanks for any help.

    Hello Otienogo,
    Try the below steps on your iPhone,
    Go to settings>iCloud and Login with your Apple Id.
    Contacts should be on, click on it to turn it off and choose keep (even if it shows you no contacts)
    When the process is done go ahead and turn on contacts again, choose merge.  All your contacts should show up if you had a previous backup to icloud.
    Hope this helps you.

  • How do i get a still image to fade the same way and at the same time as a video?

    I have a video stacked on top of a still image. When i add a transition, the still turns to a black screen while the video fades in accordance to the transition. How do i get the still image to fade the same way and at the same time as the video?

    I do. I've applied it to both the  still image and the video. Say i used the lens flare transition. If i apply it to both the video and the still image, the video will dissolve in to the next frame, but the still image will go to a black screen and then jump to the next frame. Its almost as if i inserted a black frame instead of a transition, but only for 2 seconds. Below is kind of a peek what it looks like.

  • How can I get my materials back into EBP 5.5?

    I have executed an initial replication of a single material into a clean EBP 5.5 (SRM 5.0) , i.e. no product master has ever existed
    After changing MATERIAL filters in R3AC1 and afterwards replicating using R3AS I managed to get more materials into the EBP 5.5 but found out that my filter settings had to be changed. So i deleted all product master (COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_ALL) succesfully changed my filter and ran R3AS but no materials was replicated... I have checked SMQ1 and SMQ2 which were empty. I have even tried to go back to the starting point of replicating just the one material and still no luck (even synchronized filter with R/3). I have gone through a number of notes. I have gone into SMWP and there are some red lights but e.g. 'Adapter Status Information' and 'System Settings' looks fine.
    How can I get my materials back into EBP 5.5? Is it a problem of changing filters and doing intial replications continuosly?
    While writing the above I have just now created a new material in ECC 6.0 and set up the filter to replicate just this new material and it was succesfully replicated to EBP 5.5 with product master! I guess something has to be cleaned up before I can get my materials back into EBP 5.5??? How???

    I managed to replicate all my materials with the broad range filter definition after working my way through all the errors in SMW01. However, I still don't understand why I couldn't make an initial replication of a single material (previously deleted)... anyway it is working now
    Thanks for all the help!
