How do I USE the slices I generate in Illustrator from "Save for Web"?

I am having trouble understanding slices. I want to save a raster graphic from Illustrator that takes advantage of "slices" to put hyperlinks to certain labels. I am working on a map with about 20 links to a website describing recreation sites shown on the map.
I am able to do this by bringing my map as a graphic into InDesign, and setting up links to text or picture boxes there. I can export an interactive PDF of the map, and the PDF has live links.
but the client's web host can't post the PDF with active links. (client would have to link from a static image to a copy of the PDF on a separate website). We may do this as an interim measure.
So I'd like to go back and figure out how to use slices in Illustrator to do the same thing. I've seen web pages that have a series of sliced-up graphics; I wouldn't wish that on anyone but it's the solution I want to get to.
Illustrator tutorials and help describe how to set up slices, how to type in links in the "slice options" dialogue box (in objects/slices... pulldown menu). And describe how to "save for web" to generate JPEGs or GIFs of the individual slices.
My available options in AI CC 2014 (I checked in CS6 too) are to save the slices as images. (Helpful articles which say to save as HTML and Images...aren't helpful if I don't have that option).
I get a folder called images, that contains about 74 sliced JPEGs of various sizes and shapes. I don't see, nor see an option where I can ask to make...a file that pulls all these together into a single image, with clickable links. There's no HTML file (or way to create one that I can see).
What am I missing? What application would I use to toss this folder's contents together. Or how would I create the HTML or envelope file within Illustrator?
I have entered URLs for links in three or four different places but haven't found a way to export them in such a way that they are actually useful.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks, I am a print guy, mostly. I've almost figured out CSS for my did-it-myself website, so buttons, actions, slices, etc. are new angles for me.  I am hip to the general concept that Adobe likes certain applications to do certain things. It was certainly easier to set up links from InDesign.
In what application would you suggest I DO foolishly create my interactions (raster graphic with multiple links? Does it work any better in Photoshop?  The client's web host does the web design (some sort of template thing)  so I don't believe I have the option of drawing hot-spots like is (was?) possible in Dreamweaver.
(That may be a question for the web host).
One of the problems with "discontinuing this functionality" is there are about half a dozen how-to guides online that suggest it is still possible to kluge a solution in AI (sometimes in older versions) and it's hard to tell well-executed funtionality from abandoned functionality since Adobe hides instructions in multiple, random dialogue boxes, and left so many of the pieces strewn about the current versions of AI.... How would we really know?  But I am not all that surprised they did.

  • How can I use the templates I generated in CS5 Bridge, in Lightroom 4.4?

    How can I use the templates I generated in CS5 Bridge, in Lightroom 4.4 ?
    It appears that I can not link the templates which I have been using in Bridge for some time to Lightroom 4.4.
    Is this done on purpose?
    Thanks in advance
    Doppy

    I assume these are metadata templates?
    in Bridge, apply a template to an image which has no other metadata (eg a dummy image ) and then import the image into Lightroom, ensuring no metadata applied in the Import dialog. Now in Lightroom's Metadata panel, save the metadata as a new Metadata Preset.
    Repeat for each template.

  • How can I use the Concentric Shape Generator in Motion to create a graphic?

    Hi,
    "Concentric Shapes generator
    The Concentric Shapes generator is used to generate patterns derived from circles or from polygons ranging from 3 to 100 sides. Choose two fixed colors or set up a flexible multicolor gradient."
    (taken from http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/whats-new.html)
    I would really like to utilise this feature to create some graphics I need to create but I cannot find how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? A tutorial perhaps...? I have looked and looked.
    I basically wish to have a triangle shape increasing in size over and over again in two-tone colour.
    Many thanks,
    Philip

  • How Can i use the key file Generated by RSACryptoServiceProvider to encrypt with php?

    I need to be able to encrypt data in PHP using a public key generate by .NET(RSACryptoServiceProvider).  I will then decrypt the data later in C# using the private key.

    As you see this code snippet is a xml format private key. at .net platform,which can use encrypt or dencrypt.
    i have try the Extension Crypt RSA ( http://pear.php.net/reference/Crypt_RSA-1.0.0/elementindex_Crypt_RSA.html ) to help me encrypt data by php.but it haven't return a currect result. the data encrypted by php cann't dencrypt by c#.
    does the RSA algorithm provider by Crypt_RSA can give a stand result as c#?
    BTW :i just use the xmlkeystring like this.

    but the encrypted data cann't decrypt by c#?where is the problem?what should i do with php codes?

    thank you for your reply, i also found this article by google.but this does not meet scene,  thank you all the same.
    i have already solved the problem now,i'd like to post the Solution .infact it's so easy to use rsakey file generated by .net .

  • How can I use the embeded GPS in my Sprint MiFi Hotspot for  my location on my iPad4 wifi only device

    The iPad uses the wifi network to determine the location  My default connection is through my Sprint MiFi, but it does not use its location gps eventhough it is active for Maps. It did use a local tower in a wisconsin town yesterday and no it thinks I'm there and I cannot refresh it. I am brand new to apple IOS as I won the device last Thursday. I'm  trying to upgrade the OS to 7 as it has 6 installed. I need to find a faster connection to do it though.
    Any help wpuld be appreciated

    Re: How can I get the best out of my battery life?
    Hi,
    When I make phone calls people on the other end have difficulty hearing me. They describe as they can hardly hear me as if I was speaking through the pillow etc). I am not touching any buttons and obviously it is not mute. This was happening couple of time in June, then every now and then. Recently it happened a few time in 2 weeks. I was trying to check if it was a reception issue but the place I spoke from is my office I make 70% of phone calls from. Can you book time for me in repair shop and address the issue.
    Thank you.

  • I am using the desktop screensaver and a file from dropbox for photos.  Does the list of screen savers actually use the file, or just link to it.  If I delete the file from the dropbox, will the screen saver be lost?

    Using the desktop slideshow, I have added a file from dropbox for the slideshow.  If I delete the dropbox file, does that delete the file from the list on the slideshow?  Do I need to leave the file on the computer itself rather than in the dropbox and then delete it from the dropbox?

    If you are going to delete the file from Dropbox, you will need the file on your computer.
    You will probably need to put the file in Library/Screen Savers

  • How do I use the Certificate Assistant to set up secure email for clients

    I was at first thrilled to find the Certificate Assistant, and now I'm frustrated. I need to have secure, encrypted email for my psychotherapy clients. I thought that if I created my own certificate authority and then issued certificates to my clients, I would be fine. But I can't get this to work. I set up my own authority, but when I try to get a certificate (using a different email account) I can't get it to work. For example, I go to the website created on mac.com and click the "download an invitation" button and then click the download, which opens the Assistant. I fill out the form, but I get an error saying I haven't configured an email account. How do I "configure" an email account? I mean, I use this account all the time; what more configuration does it need?
    Second question. Will anybody with a Windows machine be able to use that webpage? Seems like it's a mac only program, so what good is it in the real world?
    I know I could try to do this with Thawte or whatever, but asking my clients to get trusted so I can use encryption is unreasonable. If not having my own authority (if I could get THAT to work) is there any other way? Are there any good things to read about this? With the federal HIPAA privacy requirements, there are lots of doctors wrestling with this question.

    If you are referring to your "iCloud account", then simply tap "settings / iCloud" - delete the account you are currently logged in with, and add the correct one.

    All help welcome thanks!

    Well, you don't do that. Example: You want to dial SPAM, all you do is press 7726, that's it. The system will know you mean SPAM.

  • How to access/use DVM deployed in EM in MDS from Eclipse for  a OSB project

    Hello all,
    I have already deployed some DVM lookup files in MDS(Meta Data Repository) and used in BPEL projects by providing a link in composite.XML in the Property tags according to this link "http://www.orafmwschool.com/soa-11g-mds/#comment-2373".
    Now i want to apply same concept for OSB projects by accessing those files from Ecclipse.The files will be there in EM MDS schema database.
    Please give me Ideas..Is it feasible??

  • JPA - How can I use the table's default Date types? e.g. CURRENT_TIME

    Once again, can't find an answer anwhere.
    I would like to know if/how one can use the default date/time/datetime types as declared for the target table when attempting to persist an entity having these fields set as null.
    create table item
         item_id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT AUTOINCREMENT,
         date_created DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(*),
         date_updated DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(*),
    );Now how can I get the above table to work when attempting to em.persist(myItem) whereby dateCreated and dateUpdated are both null?

    I should also mention that TopLink has always supported the ability to retrieve the current time from the database for use in optimistic locking. The TimestampLockingPolicy offers the ability to configure the next value being retrieved from the database instead of using the local time from the JVM. Our extended optimistic locking configuration does not currently support setting this option but it could be done using a descriptor customizer which can be configured in your persistence unit properties.
    Using optimistic locking may be a good solution for the last modified date since it will also ensure that you do not corrupt the database if someone else has incremented this value since your last read.

  • How to Save for Web in the correct size?

    So i created a new project in Illus. CS5 with an artboard size of 700x150 pixels. I have two graphics in there that are about 215 pixels tall so part of it flies off the artboard, but i have a clipping part that hides all the parts that i dont want to see.
    The problem is when i go to Save for Web, the ouput image is 700x215 because it includes the space used by the graphics, that fly off the board, but you dont even see it. I was able to get around this by opening the file in photoshop and then cropping to 700x150 so the extra space is removed, but there should be a way to save this in Illus. without the hassel.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated...

    Thanks, that worked. I figure there was a setting in there somewhere and was even in the right tab, but didnt think to click on that.

  • How can I animate the application of a filter with actions, save & serialize each frame?

    Hey all,
    What I'd like to do is this:
    1 - Start with the original image
    2 - Apply Filter -> Distort -> Twirl = 1°
    3 - Save for Web with custom settings
    4 - Number the file name as Twirl_001.png
    5 - Back to comp (it now has Filter -> Apply -> Twirl=1° applied), and again add apply Filter -> Twirl (shortcut now that it has last used settings)
    6 - Now the Original Comp has Twirl=2°
    7 - Save for web As Twirl_002.png
    8 - Continue this for say 280 Times
    I've used batches before, but these go through a directory of images.
    Essentially I'd like to just animate the twirl filter on an image from 1° to 280° and I need each individual frame. If there is another way, I'm open to suggestions.
    Thanks!

    Thanks, never knew about custom scripts in Photoshop (I knew of them, but never looked into them). I always just used the Actions panel. Fortunately, I know a good bit of Javascript, so I checked the Adobe docs and was able to write up a script that works.

  • How to "Save for web" just the layer effect but not the content area?

    I fill the area with white, then add outter glow to the layer. Now I want to "Save for web" the outter glow effect but not the white area. I want the white area to be transparent. If I delete the white area, the layer effect goes away, if I merge the layer with another to flatten (think then I can delete the white middle while keeping the layer effect stay),  the layer effect look totally different after flatten.

    Set the fill to 0% in the layers panel (not the opacity). Then save for web as a PNG24, with transparency checked.
