Issue with pasting text when saving for web and resizing

This seems to be a very specific problem in PS CC 14.2.1 Mac.
I have text in the clipboard.
I go "SAVE FOR WEB" then "SAVE . . ."
I can then paste my name into the "Save As" name dialog.
BUT
If I I go "SAVE FOR WEB" then change the size of the file in the Image Size Box before I "SAVE . . ." I can no longer paste text in the naming dialog box.
I haven't tried this for every permutation in the Save For Web dialog, but saving optimized as JPEG is what I'm having trouble with.
I believe this is a bug.

What might be happening is after you change the image size in the save for web dialog, one of the size fields is still highlighted, so when you paste
in the save as dialog, the name is actually being pasted in one of the size fields in the main save for web dialog.
After you change the size in the save for web dialog press the enter/return key and then see if pasting into the name field of the save dialog in save for web works.

Grainy text when saved for web

Why do graphics with text and/or images in Fireworks CS5 become more grainy or blury when saved/exported for web use? Compared to results in Photoshop, text, image and graphic rendering when saved for web in Fireworks is lower quality or poor (grainy and blurry). Why?! Should I not use Fireworks and only use Photoshop CS5? Isn't Fireworks designed for creating web graphics? If so, what am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah, I'd encourage you to use whatever works for your situation.
I should have asked you to include a screenshot of your original for comparison. I do see obvious JPEG artifacting around the letters as well as the images; this graphic has a lot of flat color, which would prompt me to try saving it as a GIF or PNG-8 (or even a PNG) instead of a JPEG.
The cover images do look quite blurry, but I suspect they must look blurry in your original as well. Incidentally, if you saved these graphics as symbols, you could resize them multiple times in your layout without losing any quality—kind of like Smart Objects in Photoshop. (I'm assuming they might have been larger initially?) Also, you could check your Preferences to see what Interpolation method is being used when resizing. This could impact the appearance of the cover images, if they are being resized.
Text rendering is tricky at small sizes. Making a seemingly minor adjustment to the pixel size can have an impact on how the text is rendered at this small of a size, depending on the font. As far as anti-aliasing goes, System Anti-Alias can be a good choice, sometimes; you might also explore the Custom Anti-Alias option. You might also have smoother results if you create the layout at twice the size (or more) initially—a display font will look better when rendered with more pixels—and then output it at half size.
An interesting thing about Photoshop: If you zoom in to the highest setting, you can use the arrow keys to create subtle adjustments to the text rendering, depending on what kind of aliasing you've applied.

Photoshop crashes when saving for web and devices

When hitting saving for web and devices, Photoshop starts to render images but before it's done, it crashes. I get an error-popup with no text and the screen where normally the animation is shown is red. Then Windows comes with a crash report and I can only quit Photoshop.
I have an animation of over 150 frames, but just some black and white lines, no color.
I'm using Photoshop CS 5.5 on Win7.
I tried deleting the preferences in AppData/Roaming etc, but no result, still crashes.
My Photoshop is also updated to the latest version.
Help?

Ok, here's a crash report from Windows (not sure which I should post so just gonna post them both..)

Strange quality issues when saving for web and devices.

Im a UI designer and spend lots of time working with illustrator and photohop. When I design I normally create vector mockps of my work and then export slices using artboards and save for web and devices. Yesterday Illustrator started having problems exporting files. The files look good on my computer, when viewed with pixel preview mode but when i export they look really bad. here is an example:
This is a screen shot of a part of a mobile app im working on at 100 % and 200 %
here is the same area when exported using "save for web and devices" at 100% and 200%:
as you can see there is a dramatic loss in quality. the icons look almost like a low color gif...
Here is what I have tried already:
I have tried changing the settings in the exporter. I normally use png 24 but I have tried all the different settings and they all do about the same thing. the only one that seems to look ok are swf and svg.
I have copied my files over to photoshop and exported from there. that works fine but it is a pain.
any help would be great.

Illustrator CS5 15.0.2 crash when Save for Web and Devices (Mac)

Hi baffled with this.
When Saving for Web and Devices in Illustrator CS5 (15.0.2), the application now freezes and has to be force quit.
HOWEVER if I delete the Users/~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings/en_GB folder all works well until I quit the application, then the freeze will happen again. I had this happen before so under the advice of Adobe I created a new user and all was fine for that user so I transferred everything across... a laborious task.
So my question now is why now?... what has triggered this AGAIN?...
Hope you can help... anyone.
Running:
Mac OS X 10.6.6
Mac Pro tower.
Note:
have uninstalled, reinstalled, updated 15.0.1 - 15.0.2
have deleted all font caches
have deleted everything... that could be related...
HOWEVER have narrowed it down to the 'Adobe Illustrator Prefs' file in the Users/~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings/en_GB folder
Please too note this is not the folder permissions issue, am aware of that and have thoroughly checked all permissions, ran disk utility and disk warrior.
thanks

If you use cocktail I suggest you get rid of it it can cause serious problems if you select the wrong settings, instead download ONYXwhich is free and will not harm your system or corrupt anything by deleting something you actually need.
I hit the wrong setting using cocktail and it locked me out of all of the hard drives installed or connected to my Mac it is very dangerous. And I cannot imagine a reason for a setting that would protect your hard drives from yourself to the point of not recognizing your own password.
I know it cost money and has advanced settings but having the ability to kill your system is crazy.
Also to repair your permissions use the disk utility or ONYX as the permissions can become changed when installing software or if cocktail changes it locking you out of folders etc.

PSD files saved for web and devices show up as broken when opened Dreamweaver. How can this be fixed?

PSD layouts saved for web and devices show up as broken links in dreamweaver. Previews in browsers are fine, but I keep getting and error message that says the files have been blocked. What is the fix for this?

You can also try out Project Parfait. It's a new experiment from Adobe that’s currently online and free to try out and use.
It allows easy PSD comps-to code workflows.

Problems with PSE 10 when saving for the web.

I'm having problems saving for web with PSE 10. I edit in RAW, edit in PSE 10, save as Jpeg, resize and save for the web. Results are muddled and not sharp (looks cartoonish). Also, there is no metadata when you look at the image properties. I uninstalled the program and installed again. No change.

Are you resizing the photo before save for web?
What settings are you using in the save for web dialog for the jpeg quality?
If you compress the jpeg too much (low quality settings below 60), that can make your photos look bad.
And save for the web in pse 10 automatically strips any metadata in order to keep the file sizes smaller.
Also, the save for web in pse 10 has a bad habit of not remembering your last used settings, so it's good to verify that your actually set to jpeg instead of the default GIF setting.

Losing quality when saving for web after using Multiply

I have a normal photograph, with a red layer on top set to Multiply/Darken. When I save it for web, regardless of what pixel size, or what uploader I use the quality is terrible.
Have tried uploading to different services, from difference devices with the same issue, so assume it's a colour profile thing.
Any help appreciated.
Image shows the difference in quality compared to normal.

DPI is pixel size and images are not displayed on screens with the pixels sized as specified in images resolution setting. The images pixels are displayed on displays with pixels the size the display is run with. So web images display on display, display with different sizes and resolution depending on the users display device.
Images saved for web display should be saved with sRGB colors for many image viewers are not color managed and assume web images have sRGB colors.
So you images will display differently on different displays and no matter how you save them colors will vary displays may not be calibrated all displays do not have the same color capabilities.
The best you can do is calibrate your display and save them with sRGB colors jpeg or png files that display well and look good on your calibrated display.
Most desktop displays are 100DPI resolution displays where newer tablets and laptop have high resolution displays 200 to 300DPI. Even new Desktop 4k display have lower resolution. I believe the highest resolution 4K display in production is the Dell 24: display . Its resolution is 185DPI. Out of production is IBM's old 4K display which had a 204DPI resolution.

What is the best way to keep high res when saving "for web"

the files i'm saving for web so i can get them in jpg (or gif) format are coming out very pixelated. this is when i print the image.
what is the best way to save for web an image and keep the resolution good.
using for a business card template. avery template will let me attach images i want to the project. to do this.. i "get file from computer" and it drops the image in but real small... then you are supposed to enlarge it onto your work however you want. well when i enlarge this image file, it gets pixelated badly. i'm thinking it's the way i'm saving it. i do not adjust anything when i save. maybe i should. this is where i need guidance.
this is what avery template notes about the images i am allowed to use - When uploading the image, the maximum size allowed is 4 MB. You can only upload JPG and PNG images either as RGB or CMYK. so when you recommend things, can you please keep this in mind
thank you for oyur time.

Aida,
When you save with the default template using save for web it is generally a very low settings.
While in the save window you can define the pixel size of the image you want with quality as well as resolution too.
Refer to tv.adobe.com video save for web or Adobe help file for detailed instructions.

Cs3 Problems with saving for web and devices

Lately, I have had a problem saving my files for Web and Devices and the problem I am having is that when I save the file it saves as a very pixelated version of the very crisp illustration I have created. I can easily copy and paste the file from Illustrator into Photoshop and save it that way but I would much rather just save it in Illustrator.
I am going to get the CS5 package shortly, however I wasn't sure if this problem would also continue in CS5.

It should not be a problem in CS 3 either, definitely not in CS5.
Try this
PC
1. Quit Illustrator.
2. Rename the AIPrefs file (for example, to AIPrefs.old) in the Users/(user)/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings folder.
3. Start Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.
Also here should be a Save for the Web folder as well trash that also should be in the same directory.
Mac
1. Quit Illustrator.
2.Go to User/username/Library/Preferences/ Adobe illustrator CS4 Settings and trash the settings folder, the whole folder not just the contents of the folder..
3. Start Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.
Also here should be a Save for the Web folder as well trash that also should be in the same directory

Change the default HTML template when saving for web

Hi,
Is there a way to change the default HTML output template when you go to "Save for web" and select "HTML & Images"? I would like to modify the default HTML <head> tag.
Thanks.

Two observations.
First — "Tools-> ...." is specific to Acrobat X and XI. It did not exist prior to Acrobat X.
Second — Acrobat 9 Pro / Standard (nor earlier release) does not support viewing a PDF page containing a scanned image and performing a right-click ... Save Image As.
The context menu provided by Acrobat 9 Pro with a right-click on a scanned image is:
The context menu,from a right-click with the TouchUp Object tool selected, for Acrobat 9 Pro is:

Slice and 'saving for web and devices' not saving all images in selected area

Ive designed my site in illustrator and now im using slices and save for web and devices.
When I save a slice as a jpeg or gif it saves the text and but not the background image behind it. I haven't locked the background image and all the content is on the same layer in illustrator so why is it doing this and how can I stop it?
Thanks
James

Thanks for your reply. Yes, my Photoshop CS5 is updated to 12.1. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and have tried viewing in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome with no improved success.
I have been reading these forums for about 3 hours trying to find the answer to this question but am still at a loss. I have found one article here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7974006/overlapping-image-in-photoshop-splice-how-to-fl oat-with-css
which explains using an "absolute" value in CSS to lock images in place. I'm currently working in Dreamweaver to see if it's a common error in Photoshop when resizing browser but is easily fixed on the CSS side.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!

Saving for web and devices scaling problem

Hello,
Whenever I try and save a 'larger' PSD by slicing it, and saving it for web and devices It always seems to 're-size' it and limit me to a certain percentage such as 70%.
For the projects I'm working on - I NEED the width to remain at 750 pixels - rather then 70% or even 40% of that - and it won't allow me to change it back to 100%.
I understand the JPG image will be large - but is there anyway I can turn this setting off? It only seems to be happening since I got Photoshop for creative cloud...
Thanks!
Andy

Because you are slicing, the remaining portion could be a spacer image(s). If you don't need slicing which is used for creating multiple images cut out of the original to allow for clicking to a URL. Then I would advise finding another route.
Even though you can get a warning the image is too big, there is a possiblity that save for web will still work just fine for that image.
If not then you can do the work your self, by duplicating the image then either reduce the size of the image with image>Image Size... or crop the image using the crop tool. (the reason for the duplicate file is a precaution to make sure you don't accidently save the reduced file to the original and therefore throwing out data.)
That said, you could also use the image processor which can save in psd, jpg, and tiff. It can also be used to reduce the image size. The beauty of image processor is that it can work on single files or a folder of images. The new images will be placed in a new folder with the name of the format and will be located in the same folder as those it is processing.
Another option is to use camera raw. Since camera raw can load tiff and jpg images (Photoshop CC can also load png files) you can use camera raw to crop images the crop is stored in the metadata therefore the crop is non-destructive. Allowing you to uncrop at any time you choose. If you have photoshop CC you can also use camera raw as a filter which means any layer or all layers in your photoshop file can be edited in camera raw allowing non-destructive crops.
As you can see with photoshop there are multiple ways to accomplish the same thing, some easier, some quicker some more accurate and they will fall into either a destructructive or non-destructive process.
So hopefully all this information does not confuse you any as it is meant to help provide alternative approaches to your issue.
