Indesign to swf. Images disappear

I created an interactive InDesign file. When I exported it to a swf file, several of my images disappeared. The images had been embedded in the InDesign file, but went away when I exported the file. There is a hyperlink, and that still works, but the image is gone. Does anyone know why this happened and/or how to fix it?

I have tried that too and it didn´t work out. Attribute that controls where you open your hyperlink is called Target. And InDesign doesn´t let you define it. Let´s hope some improvement with this in future...

When exporting my Indesign Layout with Images, the images disappear ?

When exporting my indesign layout the images disappear once exporting as a PDF print.
I have had several information bubbles appear claiming I need to alter my blend space due or colour settings ?
I have altered the blend space to rgb and still it does not work.
I have also unlocked all the layers in attempt for this to work.
My assignment is due in tomorrow and still I cannot get this feature to work
any help would be great !

When in preview mode they do not appear either.
If you understood my question and the images also disappear in InDesign when switching the screen to Preview mode, or Overprint Preview, that means they are set to non-printing in some way. Either they are on a layer set to non-printing, or they're set to non-printing on an individual basis in the Attributes panel.
>I am using the latest OS,
Not really helpful. OS X? Windows? Probably not relevant, as it turns out, for this problem, but you should be specific.
>The pdf appears in preview
Does that mean you are trying to use Mac Preview to view the PDF? If so, it may give you bad results. Mac Preview is not a godd general-purpose PDF viewer and is incapable of rendering complex PDF.
The first error dialog you show is what you would get when opening a file in ID that has different document color spaces than the default settings in your color settings file. That's not a problem, and to preserve the color appearances you would leave things as they are.
The second warning dialog indicates you are making an interactive PDF, which is RGB. If you are using CMYK images I don't think you'll avoid color shifts no matter what you do if you have transparency, but I don't do interactive PDF, so I can't give good advice here. If you are using RGB images, by all means your transparency blend space should be set to RGB.
Can you post a screen shot of the export dialog?

Exporting SWF Images in Flash CC

I'm running Flash CC and have been trying to export a swf image file just under 40kb. Swf is the accepted file format for an online ad campaign and I'm struggling finding the best way to combine quality and file size. The image is static. If I could use a png or jpg I would...
Flash keeps exporting files sized at 9kb and they are horrible quality. Any advice on how to change the export settings in Flash to improve the image quality and maximise my 40kb limit would be greatly appreciated.
I tried exporting the image through InDesign and the smallest file size I could get was 130kb with decent quality after exporting as a jpg and re-exporting. Unfortunately lowering the quality of the jpg only helped lower it from 250kb to 130kb... Not quite enough... Suggestions on exporting smaller swf files via InDesign would be greatly appreciated (though I think I have maximised the settings).
I have read tutorials and googled for hours. Any suggestion is welcome at this stage!

edit your image in photoshop and experiment with various settings/size. there's no magic high quality small file size setting.
it's a trade-off. the higher the quality and the greater the image dimensions, the greater the file size. you have to decide where those are acceptable.

Image disappears after effect in HTML5

Hi
I am using Captivate 7.0.1.237.
I have set up my project as follows:
Slide 1:
1. I have an image that has an effect of Left to Right. When the project is launched, the effect is paused using an adv. action. Got a variable, say Var_1, in an adv. action to pause it: On enter, if the variable is 0, then pause.)
2. I have a button to generate a random number. This number is assigned as the new value of Var_1.
Slide 2:
Have an On Enter adv. action: If the value of Var_1 is "n", then pause.
Though I have not explicitly mentioned, the project moves to next slide if the Var_1 value is not "n".
Now, this is working fine in SWF output. However, in the HTML5 output, when the value is "n", the slide pauses but the image disappears after the animation effect.
Any idea why?
Thanks in advance.
Sreekanth

The current frame number when the action runs and when slide pauses as per the actions is same in both SWF asnd HTML5 outputs. Here are the screenshots. The yellow colored object is the one that has the effect. 181 is the frame number.
SWF Output
HTML5 Output. Notice the yellow object missing
I noticed one interesting difference in starting frame of SWF and HTML5 outputs. When I launch the preview the SWF (using F12), the current frame number is 0, whereas the first frame in HTML5 preview (using F11) is 1. I am not sure if that has got anything to do with the issue I am facing.

Why not set up a good system to deal with file check-outs instead? We link directly to all of the graphics across the network, but the actual InDesign files that are going to be edited and saved are all edited locally after check-out.
Just my $.02 on the matter...
EDIT: Oops, I see you tried the INX export already! Were these files perhaps pasted directly into InDesign? If so, you can copy them out and save them as graphics and relink to the graphics, but otherwise they are just a part of the file.

Hi I have been having a problem with Bridge in CS4 recently. So uninstalled CS4 and Lightroom 4.4 and reinstalled them on my Desktop PC. When I turned on Bridge through CS4, My thumb nail images disappeared and a thumb nail icon with CR2 appeared. Now some of my images have disappeared from Light room 4.4, but I can find them in CS4 and Bridge now shows some thumb nails as images and some as an icon with CR2. I have spent two weeks going through preferences etc. to find how to resolve my problem. Please can you Help? Meany thanks in advance

I don't use LR and rarely use the bridge so I can not answers about thumbnails in them, However thumbnails in windows file explorer and windows dialog for CS2 files will only show if you have installed codec into windows that will produce them. Windows does not do CR2 thumbnails on its own. I use FastPictureViewer Codec package for RAW File and PSD files thunbmail support.

Images disappearing in photoshop cs2...

Hello Folks,
I seem to have a problem brewing in Photoshop...Lately when I am working in Photoshop, if I have more than one image open at a time and I go to close one of them they all disappear from the screen but they are still open. I have to go to Close All and start over. Also, if I am using the polygon lasso tool, I will be carefully tracing a part of an image and suddenly the image disappears, while the window is still there, it turns grey and all I can see is the lasso tool traces I have made but I then have to start all over because I have to get the image back and the only way to do this is to end the lasso session and start over...The image will come back at some point after I reset the tool but I have to start all over again...I have updated everything, tried to optimize Photoshop performance but nothing seems to work...I am using windows media center edition sp 3 and have 1.87 gb of RAM. I can't think of anything that corresponds to when this started happening, I didn't change much except I do always do windows updates but I choose which ones I want to install and what is junk...Unfortunately the scratch disk is the same drive as the program is on but at the moment I don't have an alternative, could this cause this situation? Should I invest in a drive just for the scratch disk? Or, if anyone has any other suggestions I am willing to try anything...This program is important to my work and I use it a lot...
Thank you,
Jennifer

Off hand it sounds like video driver or low ram issue. Examples:Windows did an update that included a faulty video driver (which isn't very likely) or you install another program that wants to run in the background. The former usually require you to enable the download of hardware drivers for the update, the latter well even a virus could do that.
Goto your video card makers website and get the latest driver that they recommend and then run msconfig (Start>run>msconfig) disable all the startup programs and see if that helps, when you are done, make sure you reenable the programs. Each time you use msconfig it will require a restart.
If that don't help, next is check the hard drive making sure you have enough room, defraged and no errors.
Next is to run a test on the ram. You should find one at downloads.com or take it to who ever services your system and let them do it. Mind you they will charge for time checking and cost of replacing the ram or HD is needed. This is definately a last step effort. Try to do as much as you can first to save some money, if if you are unconfortable doing this then the money is well spent.

Can I make an InDesign CS4 .swf export scale depending on the open size of a browser?

Hi there. I would like to make my inDesign CS4 .swf file able to scale in accordance with the open size of a browser. When I have used Flash previously changing the size of the document to 100% achieved this effect. However, I'm not having much luck with this approach with my inDesign CS4 .swf export. I'm loathe to export it as an XML file for Flash as I want to keep my fancy page turns. Any help would be very much appreciated. I'm not very fluent in Flash-speak so I'd also appreciate it if anyone offering a solution could t-a-l-k r-e-a-l s-l-o-w.
Regards,
Jackie

This is quite old thread, I don´t have those source codes anymore... besides many people still uses monitors with width of 1024, 1219px wide magazine would clip in those monitors, so I don´t suggest to use it without shrinking....
Anyway, if you want to improve positioning of your SWF, you have at least two way to do it
1) Go to free http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/generator/index.html and create a new html-wrapper for your project
2) If that´s not enough or you want some extra features like zoom, print or search, go to http://www.edocker.com and download a free trial of eDocker.
ps. eDocker is in Adobe MAX Awards final, if you want to help it to win.... go to

Keynote 6.0 Images Disappearing

We do a lot of work within Keynote 6.0 and every time we add a new images to the presentation all other images disappear and we are left with a grey box with a cross and a question mark. It doesn't do this to all presentations but quite a lot, and also it seems to be when we add an image to an old presentation that already contains images. The new image we add appears ok, but any images that were previously in the presentation disappear.
We have been having this issue for a few months but have never been able to find an answer.

Opening Keynote version 5 files in version 6 will cause these problems, if thats what your doing, only open keynote 5 lies with Keynote version 5.

Images "Disappear" When Moving a Project But Really They'r e Just Invisible

Last night I imported 442 images into a new project. I rated them, and edited about 40-50. This morning I moved the project within the same library. When I did so, all the images disappeared, sort of. The project appeared empty. I let it sit a couple of minutes, and undid the move to no effect.
I checked to see if a filter was blocking the images but it was not the problem. I checked the Project properties and it showed the images were all there (plus, I use referenced files and I hadn't deleted the CF card so worst case scenario I had all my originals). Also, when I displayed all the projects in a browser view window, the project showed up and I could sweep through all the thumbnails in the project browser. But again, if I selected the project and tried to see the images in either the browser, viewer, or split view, nothing showed up. No thumbnails, no file names, no empty thumbnails, nothing. The photos were sort of invisible.
I "solved" the issue by moving an image - any image - from another project into the problem project. Suddenly that photo and all the other images, were visible. Removing the random image did not recreate the problem.
Since I no longer have the problem I'm posting for 2 reasons: (1) to publish the problem and my fix in case anybody gets the same problem, and (2) to see if anybody knows what caused this and if there is a more direct fix than my weird indirect fix. Thanks.

I have had the same thing happen consistently. I import images into a default project. Then when I move the project into an organizational folder... all the images disappear. After a couple of panics, I have now realized that if I stay calm, close Aperture, then open it again, the pictures are all present. Quite a pain in the butt, but at least there is a work around. Albeit a bit scary .
Best,
Jim

Can't Center SWF image in Browser

I've designed a website in flash and have inserted the SWF file into Dreamweaver, I can edit everything else I need, but for some reason - no matter what I do or try, I can't center this SWF image in Dreamweaver so the SWF file will rests in the center of a browser.
I've tried editing the CSS in the Body, but it doesn't change anything, no matter what. The site always sits flush left.
See results of current set up: http://www.louise-gd.com.
Please advise as soon as possible.

The whole page is in Flash? Do you know what you give up when you do that (hint: lots!)?
Try changing this -
body {
     background-color: #999;
     right: 0px;
     margin: 0px;
     padding: 0px;
     background-position: center;
     position: relative;
     visibility: inherit;
     height: auto;
     width: auto;
to this -
body {
     background-color: #999;
     margin: 0 auto;
     padding: 0;
        width:650px;
and see what happens.

Cd image disappear again!!

Hi folks,
Earlier, cd images disappeared when it tried mounting in finder/itunes, but it got solved when osx 10.6 updated to 10.6.3 or 2, cant remember. But anyway, after itunes came with the new update, Ive got the same problem. Anyone experiencing the same? Im ripping in my own cds to itunes, and I did 5 cds and the last disappeared. So if I restart my mac, it will show up and after 4/5 new cds, it disappears again. Same old stuff.
By the way, I experience so much troubles with itunes 10.. If I scan artwork for the cds, it wont import using the cmd+i. Only one jpg will stay imported. And I cant go back to itunes 9, cause then it mess up my iphone sync. Apple please fix this issues with disappearing cd images and artwork bugs

Apple has a tech note about using hubs for itune sync.
I'll post a link when I find it.
If having a problem don't use it or try another hub.
A powered hub should have an external power dongle- check it is working and plugged in. The hub can still work even if the dongle is not there but the USB cables will have less DC power.
Remember the USB cables have power AND data lines and the problems is the DATA lines.
Using longer cables or EXTENDER cables and a hub or even the supplied APPLE dock will cause data corruptions. EVERY connection in a USB line will cause a reduction of quality in high speed USB cable. A hub can add a lot of electrical noise.
example : A 6 foot USB extender cable -- the Apple Ipad cable -- the Apple Ipad DOCK --- The Ipad = NO sync
NOW remove the extended cable or the DOCK from this line and sync will work
The Ipad might be a bit sensitive to USB noise or the supplied Apple cable could use some more shielding ( it does look thin ).

Embedded images disappear on column sorts when viewing SSRS via url in an iframe

RE: SQL Server - 2008 R2 Reporting Services
We deliver an ASP.Net MVC (5) application and some of the views show/display SSRS report via url in an iframe (so the report is displayed vi the web viewer). There are images in the header of some of these reports which display correctly on the initial
view, but "disappear" when the user uses a report column sort and/or changes the report zoom (via the SSRS web viewer toolbar). There are other quirky behaviors as well (depending on the browser), but we are dealing with IE versions 8 thru 11. I've
already set the ReportViewer.aspx to use <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7">, and our application pages/views use <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">.
Does anyone have a "fix" for this? I know it's related to the ReportViewer.aspx and displaying the report(s) in an iframe, but I can't seem to find any information on how to fix the issue.

Hi,
According to your description, when you preview report through url in an iframe, the embed images can be displayed, images can’t be displayed after users used sort and changed report zoom.
To troubleshoot the problem, please refer to the following steps:
Run the report in Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) to make sure that the images can be displayed correctly.
The issue may be relevant to compatibility of browser, please use different browser to check whether the issue persists.
If you are using embedded image of jpg type, please change the extension of the image to png.
Set the ReportViewer.aspx to use <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8">.
Here is a relevant thread you can reference:
