How to Blend Image Edges with a Gradient

Hi All
I've created a transparent gradient over an image. The problem I am having is that the edges of the image are visible beneath the gradient. I know how to correct this in Photoshop but I am having difficulty in Illustrator.
How can I create a smooth blend of the gradient over the image without seeing the edges of the image?
Thanks
George

If the background of image that you have underneath the gradient is a uniform color (it appears to be a uniformly white background, as best I can tell), you might also try adding a rectangle the same size as your gradient below both the image and the gradient, and fill it with white (or whatever the specific background color of your image is).  This will only work if you have a uniform background color around the edges of your image, but it looks like in your example that it might work.

    You can have a look at the link here [GOS Contents|http://help-abap.zevolving.com/2009/02/generic-object-services-gos-toolbar-part-5-get-note-attachment-contents/]
    Please note that in your case if its attachments only then pass la_relat-low = 'ATTA*'. if there is no filtering then pass 'NOTE', 'URL', 'ATTA' as required.
    For the business object of PR pass BUS2105 and instance id pass the PR no.

  • How to name image sequences with the convention "name.[####].extention"?

    Quicktime doesn't seem to respond to the naming convention used in other programs like After Effect or Combustion for naming image sequences when you are exporting the sequence. It does let you put a space before the sequential numbering but this is no good for using image sequences in Maya for example. During the save prompt if we were to save the image sequence as AppleMovie.[####].jpg in these programs we would yield an image sequence with AppleMovie.0001.jpg, AppleMovie.0002.jpg, AppleMovie.0003.jpg, etc. Anyone know if there is a way to do this as I've described?

    Open ExtendScript Toolkit this can be found here:-
    PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Utilities
    MAC: <hard drive>/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities
    Copy and paste the code into a new window and then save the code to:-
    PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS#\Presets\Scripts
    Mac:- [hard drive]/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS#/Presets/Scripts/
    If photoshop was open, close and re-start it so that Photoshop can pick up the new script.
    Now you can create an action to run the script and do your save so that this action can be batched.
    To add the script to your action:
    File - Scripts - select the script (this will add the new layer)

  • InDesignCC. How to keep image quality with exporting Interactive PDF?

    Hello everyone, I'm using InDesign CC, I'm exporting a PDF that has PNG images, the problem is that I'm loosing the sharpness and the pureness in the images after exporting the file into PDF Interactive... the Settings I'm using for Image Handling are Compression: Automatic , JPEG Quality: Maximum, Resolution PPI: 300..
    The file size is "Letter" with web Intent (792px x 612px) the images I'm using are big and have great quality, can anyone tell me how I export into PDF interactive without loosig images quality? I want to keep this pureness and sharpness in the images
    Thanks in advance

    It depends on the image. Best way for us to advise you is to open your image, then go to Image > Image Size and upload a screen capture of the Image Size box with the readings.
    What you might have working against you is not enough pixels. Upsampling may just make it blurred. But we will see.
    300 ppi is also not carved in stone, you may get away with 200 ppi depending on where you are sending it for printing.
    And lastly, if you are paying a commercial printer to do this, it's best to consult with them and see what they can do.

  • How to upload image along with timestamp

    Hi all,
    I need to upload an image (byte array) and its timestamp to server which has jsp/servlet. But having trouble to transmit both in the same request.
    In actionscript, I use URLRequest and URLLoader and upload the image without problem, however, I don't know how to upload the timestamp in the same request. I tried to build a ByteArray to contain both timestamp and the image, but I couldn't convert the Date.getTime() to byte[] correctly. The only function in ByteArray to input 8 bytes is writeDouble, but it doesn't embed the time correctly.
    Where is the best way to handle this?
    Thanks a lot

    Thanks for the reply.
    Can you shed some light how to transfer the file over? I use URLLoader with POST method and set the request data to a bytearray which is the image bitmapdata bit array. How do I send the the file name over? (parse the filename is not a problem)
    Thanks,

  • How to reload image file with metadata

    Usually I capture pictures in RAW and import into Aperture library. A lot of them is not very good or very important, but after making rate, adding keywords, I want to output them from RAW to JPEG.
    And then, import back those JPEG images into the same library with other "good image" RAW.
    But, how to keep all the JPEG in same album with rate and keyword?

    try this, but test it first. You could use referenced imaged in your library. Do set you library to automatically create previews. Set the preference for Previews to the quality you prefer for the saved JPEG images. Use the "Update Preview" option to create previews of the image you want only the JPEG version of. Once you have a preview of the images you only want a JPEG of, move the original out of the referenced storage location.

  • Image box with opacity gradients, and other parallax scrolling inhancements

    First i want to say great job Muse Team, this is starting to get really interesting:
    I've been playing around with parallax scrolling over gradients for effect,   but i'm dreaming about fading in full screen fields of texture.   without the weight of massive .png
    1)      I would love to see the Background Image folder persist in the rectangle Fill > Gradient menu, with the options to tile etc.
    2)     This feature along with speed and rotation controls for anchor finding, would really crack this thing wide open for me.    
    could be implemented with 2 lines coming off anchors:
    one line straight down that can be rotated like a hand on a clock, to set the landing orientation.
    and the second a diagonal line (thinking photoshop curves), to set the approach speed.
    Maybe holding shift with the hand tool could rotate the design page, though i have no idea what rotation would do to the exhisting scrolling menu, i guess ill leave implementation to you!  
    3)     One last tweak, the option to remove scroll bars entirely from the page properties menu would be nice, but intil then i found this bit of code for the bleeding edge:
    Insert as HTML to hide the horizontal scrollbar:
    <style>
    html,body{
    overflow-x:hidden;
    </style>
    thanks for your time

    Be sure your images are stacked properly in the order you need them in your Layers panel.
    If that doesn't solve your problem please provide a link or screenshots so we can see your problem.

  • How to create image slice with transparent background without white halo around?

    Hi, I want to make slice image with transparent background. I set the slice option background color to my background color. But when the image is on my html page set against the same background color, it has white halo around:
    How can I get rid of the white halo?
    I need the slice image to have transparent background and not have a color background because it's going on a rollover button with the background change. I don't want it to look like this on rollover:

    >it looks to me like you built it with that "halo" to start with.
    No, I didn't put in the halo myself. The shape is a character from the Webdings font. It's set to some darker fill color and set on a transparent background. Photoshop put the white halo there after "Save For Web".
    > Make your graphic on a transparent background and Save for Web
    I did exactly that, see:
    I set the slice background to my color. I try the Matte option and come out the same with white halo.
    It seems I'm not making Photoshop antialias to my background color, instead Photoshop just antialias to white.
    What else do I need to do?

  • How to run image processor with ACR?

    I have a folder with 1000 raws.
    I just want to run image processsor to make small jpegs for the copyright office.
    Think it ACR opens each one to the ACR window and then stops.
    (I think Jeff S, explained this in a previous thread of mine I now cannot find— sorry. At that time it probably was not a critical issue and I move on. But I do gotta get these shots over to Washington DC now. thanks!)

    The interaction between Image Processor and Camera Raw depennds on your Image Processor settings...if you've laready set the image adjustments (or don't need any adjustments) simply be sure you DON'T select Open fist image to apply settings> As long as you don't select this option, IP will run through all of the raw files, process them with the image settings and save as JPEG–you'll want to select the Save as JPEG, set the quality and prolly set to Convert Profile to sRGB. If you want to minimize the final output size (suggested for several reasons) you can select the Resize to Fit option. You don't want to send high rez images to the Copyright Office...1024 x1024 is large enough...you WILL want to fille out the bottom line for Copyright Info.
    Yes, Lightroom can be used for this (easily) but so can Bridge/ACR/Image Processor.

  • How to access Image Metadata with AS3?

    An image, like a jpeg, has a bunch of metadata stored in it.
    The "IPTC Core" metadata usually includes the photographers name,
    address, title, description, etc.
    Is there any way to access this information using AS3 so
    that, say, captions for images in a flash gallery could be
    generated automatically?

    As far as I know this is not possible with AS3 directly, but
    if you are interested you could check out the as3corelib at
    http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/
    They have some pretty nifty JPEG things going on there
    (although I do not know if this includes metadata - but I hope
    so).
