Incorrect document size display...why?

Hi,
I have an approximately 8047x 5270 pixel large image (which is equivalent with 212 cm x139 cm), but as I switch to cm (by left clicking on the rulers and selecting cm), photoshop tells me that my document size is about 160 cm x 98 cm.
Am I wrong, or what is going on?
Thanks

The ammount of pixels per cm/inch/whatever is determined by the document resolution. You can check that setting in Image->Image Size

  • Incorrect files sizes displayed in the finder

    My early 2009 iMac with 4GB Ram, 650Gb HD, running OSX Snow Tiger (latest version) is showing incorrect file sizes for many things.  For example, a 4.21GB DVD will show on the desktop as being 4.58GB... any thoughts??

  • DW CS3 incorrect font size display

    Hello All,
    I just upgraded to DW CS3 and any page that has paragraphs
    with font size sets to "2" displays as about a 4 pt font and is
    barley readable.
    Anyone have any ideas on how to get them to display
    correctly?
    Thanks for the help!

    Okay great, thanks guys. I've been going through my fonts and re-
    organizing them (made the mac noob mistake a few years ago of putting 
    regular fonts in the system font library). I've also deleted those 
    LST files and disabled the MM fonts. No luck so far, so there must be 
    some culprit fonts on my system that are getting in the way.
    Are there any programs/ways of telling what fonts might be funky?

  • Reducing pixel dimensions increases document size.

    In photoshop cs6. Working on an image of 15000x18662 pixels, with about 100+ layers.  doc size 800mb/6.43GB.  To optimize speed, I reduced the file size to the absolute minimum I need which is 13200x16423.  However now the file size grew bigger  620.2M/6.45GB.   Some layers extend beyond the visible image area, so I cropped the image "deleting cropped pixels" , but this increased the image even further to 6.50GB.  What's going on here? 
    Why is the file size increasing when I decrease pixel size?
    Why would deleting cropped pixels increase file size?

    If no one who has bothered to read the original post considers it of enough interest to investigate or advise that is up to them.
    Can you provide the original image?
    Depending on the interpolation settings on the content downsampling might result in a lessened effect of the applied compression.
    You seem to give the approximated values from "Document Sizes" in the status bar – what is the actual file’s size?
    Quote from the Reference:
    Document Sizes Displays information on the amount of data in the image. The number on the left represents the printing size of the image
    —approximately the size of the saved, flattened file in Adobe Photoshop format. The number on the right indicates the file’s approximate
    size including layers and channels.

  • When I change size of icons or icon vs list display, why does it affect the whole computer?

    When I change size of icons, or icon vs list display, why does it affect the whole computer? In some folders I want to see a list and others I want to see an icon and I don't need a large icon in all folders. I used to be able to set each folder separately in the old OS. How do I fix this?

    I can hilight an item, go to the finder/file/getinfo but there is no box next to icon view.
    I can go to view/options and adjust the icon size etc, but this applies to every folder in the whole computer. I need varied options in different folders, i.e., I want to view images as icons and text as text. I have to change it every time I open a folder. I used to be able to set it per folder in the old OS.

  • One photo's document size says 60M at the left bottom of the image I saved it, became 2.8M. Another photo's doc size 50M, I saved it , became 12M. Why?

    One photo's document size says 60M at the left bottom of the image, I saved it, became 2.8M. Another photo's doc size 50M, I saved it , became 12M. Why?

    You're looking at several different things.
    File size is the size of the compressed image data plus file format overhead for whatever format you select.
    Flat document size is the size of the document if flattened, but not compressed.
    The document size in memory is how much RAM is used by the document, including all layers and other data it needs.

  • HT1338 Why isn't the file size displayed for software updates in the App Store?

    Why isn't the file size displayed for software updates in the App Store?
    My only internet connection is a tether to my iPhone.
    My limited bandwidth forces me to manage my data consumption - I am forced to "google" the file size of the software update so I can decide if I have the headroom in my data plan to take advantage of the update.

  • HT4942 Why is the size display of Keynote (and all the iWorks programs) not adjustable enough to allow 2 programs to be viewed side by side!  The won't allow me to fully choose how small I want it to be!

    I often use Keynote AND Pages jumping back and forth when creating a presentation.  I used to be able to open each and make them fit side by side to work so I could see both evenly.  But now these iWork programs no longer allow me to shrink their size displayed to fit this way.  I can only shrink them to be about 2/3rds of my monitor which means the other is grossly covered up by the other and I have to keep clicking over the other to see information and then click back on the other which is immediately covered up again and I have to memorize what I saw on the other program to add to the other!  Frustrating!!!  Is there a way to minimize these programs to any size I want?!?!?!?!

    Same thing happens on my mbpr 15", I'm going to guess that Gary is running the programs on a large screen iMac and maybe it the limitations of our laptops' screens preventing us from running the apps at 1/2 screen size.

  • HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-O​ne Printer when trying to photocopy says incorrect paper size

    HP Photosmart 7520 e-All-in-One Printer - WHEN i AM TRYING TO MAKE A COPY COPY OF AN A4 DOCUMENT WITH A4 PAPER INSTALLED.  iT KEEPS PUTTING THROUGH A BLANK SHEET AND SAYING INCORRECT PAPER SIZE.   HELP!!
    I HAVE CHECKED FOR UPDATED SOFTWARE ETC, CLEANED THE GLASS, TURNED OFF AND ON ETC - NO LUCK.
    Why is it such a major task just to photocopy one standard piece of A4 paper with just a letter contained no photos etc or anything too tasking.
    Any help much appreciated

    Hey there @SMFTEDDY ,
    I saw your thread and messages and wanted to add to it. I have checked the Copy Menu on the printer itself (below), and it does not contain the option to copy in A4 size. You might just have to use the work around scanning method recommended above to get to use the A4 size you wish to use with the Photosmart 7520.
    Good luck

  • Cropping and Post-Document Size

    Hi,
    I need to crop my images at 500x500 pixels for a project. I do a Save For Web & Devices and use JPEG, optimize at 80%. When I open up the new JPEG file, the pixel size says 500x500, but the document size says 6.944x6.944 inches at 72 resoultion, instead of 5x5 inches at 100 resolution. I've been doing the same process for months and it was correct in pixel and document size until recently, but I haven't changed any settings or my process. Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thank you,
    Jennifer

    Thanks, that all makes sense. I'm just curious though, why would Photoshop display the document size differently, one as 5"x5" at 100ppi (files I did months ago) and then recently it seems to have just decided that it wanted to display the document size at the 6.944"x6.944" at 72ppi? We've always done a "Save for Web" and not "Save As." Other than that, thank you for your responses, I understand.

  • Document size in quick look

    Hi Community,
    I installed a new Mac running Snow Leopard and now I have a small document size in quick look. I can change the size by drag and drop the lower right corner but a) the next document is in the same small size and b) when I reopen a document in quick look I adjusted the size before, it will be displayed also in the small size again. In other words the quick look doesn't remember the custom size setting.
    Is there anywhere in the system a way to change the settings of quick look?
    Thx & Bye Tom

    Yes, I have the same issue, text is tiny on my large screen when previewing word or other text documents. The implementation of Quicklook for text could be improved. For images it obviously works great but for text, I would define a "quick look" as a quick scan of the contents, not just the layout, because its text. When you are editing HTML or looking at CVs a lot, you end up needing to read a little to see what the item actually is, as a lot of layouts are the same for these type of documents.

  • Incorrect PDF being displayed periodically in the browser

    I want to start by thanking anyone who could shed light on this problem. 
    We have a web application that dynamically generates PDF files per a user request in a web application.  98% of the time the proper PDF gets opened in the browser correctly, whether it be IE or Firefox.  The other 2% of the time, no matter what url data was requested from, an incorrect PDF is displayed.  This incorrect PDF that gets displayed is one that was requested and opened in a previous request and could still be open in a browser tab.  Once this state is reached all PDFs that are requested do not line up with the requested PDF, meaning they are all incorrect.  Once the browser is refreshed the problem stops happening for another stretch of time. 
    I have read posts that discuss placing a random number in the url to "trick" the browser plugin from thinking it already has the PDF.  We have done that.  In fact this issue appears to not be impacted at all by the url.  For example, when this problem happens I can go to https://appname/one/pdf and get the PDF that was requested and sent back when I went to https://appname/two/pdf.  These are two clearly different urls even without the random number that we placed on the end as a parameter and I still receive the PDF from the second URL. 
    We debugged the server side code and we are 100% sure that we are sending the correct PDF back to the client by streaming the PDF to a file on the server prior to sending it back to the client. 
    One thing I have noticed is that currently we are not specifying the Content-Disposition header when we return the PDF to the browser.  This means that there is no filename being provided to the front end and the plugin.  Is it possible that the Adobe Reader plugin eventually gets confused as to what file to display if there is no specific file name provided for the PDF from the server, with the keyword there being eventually as it is an intermittent problem? 
    We can easily set the Content-Disposition header to be attachment; filename="somename.pdf" but given the intermittent nature of this bug we would like to get some feedback as to if this fix is logical given this issue.  If it is not logical we would appreciate any other information that may help us troubleshoot this issue.  The alternative is to rewrite the document generation code to output HTML, and I really do not want to do that. 
    We are using the Adobe Acrobat 9.4.5.236 add-on to Firefox 10.0.3, Adobe Reader 9.4.0, and Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702.  All of these versions are not able to be upgraded, meaning this is the baseline we have to support.  We also operate, still, on Window XP Professional Service Pack 3. 
    One last comment, client side operations by the user are not valid solutions either.  I have already suggested asking the user to uncheck the open in browser option in Adobe Reader but our customer does not find that to be a valid solution.  To date we have not been able to recreate the issue when the PDF is opened in Adobe Reader proper and not the browser. 
    Thanks again for any help and information. 

    In case someone, other than me, stumbles across this post.  The solution I suggested in the opening post did not work.  When a user opens a PDF using the Reader Plug-in in Firefox they still have the potential to see the previous PDF.  The interesting thing is, as it appears right now, that this only occurs when a user closes a Firefox tab that contained the previous PDF and then triggers a different PDF to be opened in Firefox.  What seems to be happening is that the Reader Plug-in ignores the file it is supposed to open and recycles the PDF that was in that tab before it was closed.  Which is funny because the URL of that tab points to the new file that was downloaded into the temp directory but the contents of the tab is still the previous PDF.  Not sure if the plug-in just doesn't clean out the previous contents or what but it clearly is an issue that resides in the Adobe Reader Plug-in for Firefox. 
    I am not sure what we are going to do at the moment but if we find a solution, other than don't open the PDF in Firefox, I will be sure to post it here.  However, for right now there is nothing coming to mind. 

  • Copy & Paste From Illustrator to Photoshop not matching document size

    I just recently reformated my computer and I've been having an issue with copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop. Before I could copy a 2"x2" vector box from Illustrator into photoshop making a new document and the size and resolution would match. That is the new document would say 2"x2" at 300 ppi in photoshop and the preset would read "clipboard". I would then hit ok and paste and it would match perfectly. Now since I've reformated, photoshop always creates a new document with the wrong size regardless of the settings I enter in Illustrator or photoshop. I have document raster and effects set at 300 ppi in Illustrator and I have the new document set at 300 in photoshop, but it always transfers the 2"x2" box as some other size no matter what resolution I change it too. Again this used to work before so I'm assuming there is some setting I forgot about. Does anyone know? The main issue is the clipboard preset is not matching the document size, its almost as if Illustartor is telling photoshop it's a different resolution when it's not. Copying to 72 ppi seems to have no issue, which makes me think Illustrator just isn't sending it out at 300 ppi, but I don't know why as I have the document set at 300 ppi.

    Have you found an answer that wasn't posted here yet? I have the same issue.

  • Incorrect Page Size or Orientation Error Detected in Live Preflight

    Wednesday, November 10, 2010 12:16:40 PM PST
    I am trying to prepare a newsletter created in Adobe InDesign to send to a Printer in Germany.  This is the first time I'm sending a document to press since moving to Germany last February and the first time since upgrading my computer and software to:
    MacBookPro: Model 5,3
    Adobe InDesign:  ver. 6.0.6
    Adobe Acrobat Pro:  ver. 9.4.0
    The standard paper size in Europe is "A4" , slightly larger than our "Letter" size. Document was set up an "A4" document size. A4 is also selected on the Print menu.
    Live Preflight shows "incorrect page size or orientation" and says:
    Required: 612 pt. x 792 pt.
    Current: 595.276 pt. x 841.89 pt.
    Fix: Choose File/ Document Setup to specified required page size.
    I tried changing the document setup to the "required" 612 x 792, and the document was squeezed into the smaller space, ruining the document formatting! I undid the damage and looked further for the incorrect preference setting.
    There is a wrong setting somewhere, but I can't find it.
    Distiller is rejecting the document and won't generate a PDF. The only other errors detected in Preflight were RGB color space issues.
    All settings in InDesign Preferences, Print Menu and PDF generator are set for the size A4, yet Preflight insists that the Document
    Size and Orientation are incorrect and suggests changing the size to 612 pt. x 792 pt.
    I also noted that when setting up the PDF, I did not check "Optimized for Fast Web Viewing," yet when I generated the PDF, it "Optimized for Fast Web Viewing." It seems that there is some preference somewhere that is overriding my selections. But where....?!
    I was able to generate a PDF from InDesign (without going through Distiller) and the printer was able to use the PDF.  I was taught to always use Distiller when submitting files to printers, and to "package" the files.  Is there some risk in sending files without using Distiller?
    In addition to the page size/orientation issue, Europe has different standards for color space and printers' ink also. If anyone could shed some light on how I should adapt to European standards, I would be grateful.
    I was disappointed that Adobe offered only paid support, although I purchased Adobe CS4 less than a year ago. For such an expensive
    product, I would think free support would be available for at a minimum one year.

    Yes, Preflight was looking for letter size and created a conflict with my page size/orientation selections in the document setup and print setup.
    No, this didn't resolve the problem keeping Distiller from making my PDF.
    Here is the message Distiller gave when it rejected the file:

    Does every criterion set in Preflight have to be fulfilled for Distiller to work?  How do I isolate the problem keeping the PDF from being created?
