Image pixelates when mapped onto 3D object

I have created a bottle by revolveing an object in Illustrator. I created a custom sybol and that is not pixelated at all. The symbol is made of text and an image. To the left is the symbol before it is mapped. As you can see the leaf is not pixelated, but once it is mapped it gets pixelated and blury as seen to the right. Does anyone know why this is and how to fix it!!!??

Check your document raster effects settings. You may actually see something with an effect inside the symbol being wrongly rasterized...

Even mapping onto 3d object in Illustrator CS3

Having a wee bit of a problem here - I have created artwork for a display stand and, to demonstrate how this will look, I'm trying to make a 3 mockup in illustrator CS3.
I've created a top down shape for the object which I then extrude and map the image on to - this is where the problem arises! Illustrator seems to 'bunch' the mapped image around points where curves are tighter (presumably due the increase in vertices there) rather than mapping it evenly around the surface. This causes some rather undesirable warping of the image which rather ruins the effect!
Can anyone tell me a way of avoiding this?
Many thanks!

But did you have to reposition the mapped symbol, since adding anchors also add surfaces
No. I did exactly what my instructions indicated: I simply positioned the Symbol for mapping onto the front surface, with no scaling. After Illusrtator rendered the result, I selected Add AnchorPoints twice.
The distortion was due to the extended handles of the middle point which gives the front surface its concave shape. Adding anchorPoints effectively shortens the handles, thereby lessening their distortion effect. That does not necessarily add surfaces to the model. A 3D Effect model does not necessarily create additional surfaces for each "patch" defined by anchorPoints. You can see that easily by simply extruding a filled, unstroked ellipse into a cylinder with open endcaps: One surface, despite the four anchorpoints in the section.
Moreover, with the preview checkbox on, the 3D Effect interface highlights the surfaces on your model as you page through them in the Map Art dialog.
OF COURSE the model's section path needs to be drawn with some sense about what 3D Effect will have to do to it geometrically, and about the scale of the 3D model settings relative to the size and aspect ratio of the mapped artwork (thus my admonitions to that effect in my second post). One can't just willy-nilly apply elaborate automatic effects to any carelessly-drawn path and expect results to work right. But assuming appropriately-drawn sections for the extrusion, adding anchorPoints can be an effective means by which to correct distortion caused by long curve handles--just as it can also be used to more closely approximate uniform spacing of Blend steps along curves spines. The long radius concave front of a trade show backdrop is a case-in-point.

Image pixelates when published

Hey -
Rather new to all this, but I'm trying to cut out a circular
logo sent to me in a pdf, shrink it, and put it on my web page.
now, i can do all this, but when i put the image on the page with
dreamweaver, there is a definite loss of quality. I've been copying
the image into FW, using the Oval Marquee tool to cut out just the
circular logo, resizing the circle so it's a bit smaller, exporting
it by way of animated .gif and then putting it on the site with
dreamweaver. And although it looks crisp in FW image preview, when
it gets into DW it becomes pixelated and doesn't look very
professional. Does it have to do with the shrinking, or the way i'm
saving it, or what? any help appreciated.

Why are you saving it as an animated gif? Can you upload it
to your Web
site so we can see it?

Poor image quality when displaying OLE Word object in PDF

Symbol not mapping onto 3d image

I'm trying to draw a coin and have successfully mapped the head onto one side of the coin, but for some reason tails isn't mapping. I did the exact same thing to tails as I did to head - I turned the vector image into a symbol and then map it onto a face. It's not a problem with the face because when i switch the positions of the heads and the tails, the heads shows up and the tails still doesn't show up.
Does anyone know what's going on?
The heads is below, and the tails simply does not show up.

But did you have to reposition the mapped symbol, since adding anchors also add surfaces
No. I did exactly what my instructions indicated: I simply positioned the Symbol for mapping onto the front surface, with no scaling. After Illusrtator rendered the result, I selected Add AnchorPoints twice.

Error message when mapping to a network drive of a DFS share on Windows 7

Hi,
We are getting the following error when mapping to a network drive of a DFS share on Windows 7:
“The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:
A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated."
In our case, the user logs on his workstation using his regular domain account, then maps to the network DFS share using the service account of an application.
There is a fix from Microsoft (MS KB968264). But this fix requires disabling the "Network access: Do not allow storage of credentials or .NET Passports for network authentication” property. This is against the Microsoft own best practices (Network access:
“Do not allow storage of passwords and credentials for network authentication” should be set to
ENABLED), and is NOT acceptable for us for obvious security reasons.
Question: Does anyone know an alternative fix to this issue that does not introduce security risks?
Thank you in advance!
Mdjona

Again I have tried this, but in my program if I try to save to the a drive when no disk is inserted, the JOptionPane i want to display is not coming up.
the system prints out
java.io.FileNotFoundException: A:\image.jpg <The device is not ready>
If that makes any sense to you

How to copy an image from a photo onto another photo

Im trying to figure out how to cut and paste an image from one photo onto another. I tried exporting the main photo to a pages document and then inserting the other image, but cant seem to get it to work. Is there an easy way to do this?

You'll need an image editor for the job:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
_[The Gimp|http://www.gimp.org/macintosh>_ also free
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
[Pixelmator|http://www.pixelmator.com> ($60 approx.)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
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.

When browsing a new library that I created, the browser shows dotted lines around grey rectangles, no images. When I double click on a rectangle the image appears. How do I get images to appear in the browser rectangles?

When browsing a new library that I created and exported onto an external hard drive, the browser shows dotted lines around grey rectangles, no images. When I double click on a rectangle, the image appears, but all the other rectangles remain empty - no image. How do I get images to appear in the browser rectangles? I am viewing this on a second computer (an older intel duo iMac), not the one I created the library on (a MacBook Pro). Both computers have Aperture 3.2.4 installed. When I return the external to the MacBook, all images appear in browser rectangles. What's happening on the iMac?

You may have a problem with the permissions on your external volume. Probably you are not the owner of your library on the second mac.
If you have not already done so, set the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume" flag on your external volume. To do this, select the volume in the Finder and use the Finder command "File > Get Info" (or ⌘I).
In the "Get Info" panel disclose the "Sharing & Permissions" brick, open the padlock, and enable the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume" flag. You will have to authentificate as administrator to do this.
Then run the "Aperture Library First Aid Tools" on this library and repair the permissions. To launch the "First Aid Tools" hold down the ⌥⌘-key combination while you double click your Aperture Library. Select "Repair Permissions" and run the repair; then repeat with "Repair Database". Do this on the omputer where you created the library and where you can see the thumbnails.
Then check, if you now are able to read the library properly on your iMac.

Core Data Services in ABAP : No URI-Mapping defined for object type DDLS

Hi ,
When creating a DDL source , I get the error
" No URI-Mapping defined for object type DDLS and object name ZCDSV_01_06".
Can you please suggest what the issue could be?
Thanks,

Now I am able to proceed to the next step. Not sure how this started working. However, I get the below error when I open the DDL source editor for one particular ABAP system added in the eclipse environment. I however do not get the error when I open the DDL source editor for another system ( AH4) .I am providing the log error details . I updated the ADT installation. However the issue has not been resolved. Also I tried implementing the Note: 1834948. However I cannot find the option "Team -> Share project..." in the ABAP project.

How can I allow a customer to upload an image to be stuck onto a mug or t-shirt and then view what it would look like on that mug or t-shirt?

How can I allow a customer to upload an image to be stuck onto a mug or t-shirt and then view what it would look like on that mug or t-shirt?

In the absence of drivers, a rather nasty way to achieve this would be to ensure that your software always occupies the same portion of the screen such that you know the position of the 'sample' button. You could then simulate a mouse click at those coordinates when you require a sample to be taken.
This would not be a robust solution as a user could move or minimise the window, or other windows could also find their way into the critical position and cause the application to work incorrectly or cause unexpected things to happen.
However, if you just need a short term work around this method might be acceptable, just be aware of the risks if you try it.
Searching for simulate mouse clicks and having a play is the way forward.
As an example of simulating a mouse click in a certain position, have a look here:

Illustrator hanging or hesitating when I select an object

Hey guys, I've got a question and I know that I can't be alone on this.
I've been having an issue for the last few months with Illustrator CC hesitating when I select an object. It happens randomly. I could be selecting text, an image, a shape, an anchor point, anything.
Here's what happens:
I'll select an object with the direct selection tool and (without holding down the mouse button) move my cursor on to the next object.
Instead of being selected, there will be a noticeable delay, and after about half a second, the object that I just selected will follow my cursor as if I had clicked and dragged and then released.
Mostly it happens when I'm selecting multiple objects to do a move or a group or just something to a few things, but it doesn't only happen with multiple objects. Every time it does happen, I have to cmd+z, and reselect everything. This is super annoying when I've just spent a good amount of time direct selecting some anchor points and I have to go all the way back and do it over. This is absolutely destroying my workflow.
Also, I know it's not hardware related.
I have a brand spanking new 2014 MBP 15 inch retina. 16gigs ram, core i7, the whole shebang. Apple recently (yesterday) gave me this machine in replacement for one of identical specs, because I and they determined that some other things shouldn't be happening that were happening. Now, I don't believe this is the case anymore as I've just opened up illustrator for the first time and whaddya know. I was having a bunch of other problems with that other computer, and I thought this was just another symptom.
I use illustrator all day. I've been using it for years, on much less powerful machines. I have a 2011 dell at home that I prefer using now because of this problem. I'm not doing anything ram intensive, and it doesn't only happen on large illustrator documents. It happens in Mavericks and Yosemite. I'm all the way updated in everything. I'm not using a fancy mouse or wacom, and it happens with the trackpad as well.

It's a Mac retina display issue. Adobe seem to have been unable to optimise their products for retina displays yet...
See this thread also: Illustrator CC 2014 extremely choppy. Please help.

XML Data Button Not working when Exported onto BusinessObjectEnterprise

I have an XML data button on a dashboard. It works fine in preview and on web. It does not work if it is exported onto Business Object server using XCelsius' Export to BusinessObjectEnterprise.
In the InfoView, I double click on the flash file, the flash files opens as expected, but when XML Data button is clicked, no new data seem to come in...
If I export as Adobe file, and then post it onto the server, and view it using Info View, the XML data button works just fine.
Please advise.

Hi All,
Even I have similar requirement.
Any work around is appreciable.
Thanks

RAW Images Alter When Saved After Processing in CS5 Camera RAW?

Hi,
I am currently experiencing a problem in Photoshop CS5, where after processing a CR2 RAW image file in Camera RAW, whether I then decide to open the image straight into CS5, or save as a jpeg or tiff file, the image completely alters from what I was previously seeing in the Camera RAW window?
The saved jpeg/tiff, or image now shown in CS5 is now very tinted, where objects that were perfectly white in the Camera RAW window are now a dirty yellow colour.
I was just wondering if there was any advice any of you could give me as to what the problem might be?
I have made sure that both CS5 and the Camera RAW window are both set to sRGB, but it has had no effect on the problem.
Thank you in advance for any help
