Jpeg from Photoshop showing up  4.5 times bigger in Illustrator

Hello,
I'm working with a jpeg I created in Photoshop that is 300dpi CMYK with an image and canvas size of about 15.8 inches wide. However, when I place it into an Illustrator file it shows up as just over 66" wide. I've checked that the Document Raster Effects Setting in the Illustrator file is set to 300dpi. My final output will be print so I want to maintain the 300 dpi.
I don't understand what's going on, can someone please give me a brief explanation?
Is there a setting that will let me import an image at it's actual print size?
I'm comfortable resizing the image in Illustrator but I'd rather it show up correctly in the first place.
Thank you

Thank you for your response.
If I'm looking in the right place (Links panel - Link information) then it looks like it's at 100%. I've attached a screen shot of what I'm looking at.
I did some experimenting. I saved the file as a CMYK tif and when I brought it into Illustrator it was the correct size. Of course the original jpeg is about 8.5mb and the tif is 23+. Then I saved converted the jpeg in Photoshop to RGB and when I placed that into Illustrator I had the same problem with it scaling up as if it was 72ppi. So I think we can safely say it's a general jpeg issue.

  • Exporting Photos from Lightroom 3 vs. Saving JPEGs from Photoshop IMAGE QUALITY

    Hi all,
    I'm not quite understanding why if I export a photo from Lightroom 3, the thumbnail looks great in Finder (if you max out display size) but when I edit the same photo from Photoshop and save it, the thumbnail image is blurry. Opening images comes out the same. I'm just being nitpicky, it's kind of annoying. Can anyone explain the difference? Thanks!

  • How can I avoid image 'distortion' when saving jpegs from Photoshop?

    I've created a logo with a transparent background and saved as an eps in Illustrator CS3.  To create a jpeg I then opened opened the eps in Photoshop CS3, set the resolution at 300ppi and then saved the image as a jpeg.  The image views ok on screen but when it is inserted into a word document and then printed, the background of the image is 'blurry' - it has small red dots through and you can see also the 'edges' of the image.  Not sure what I'm doing wrong!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for all the ideas.  Had to have a jpeg at the 'clients' request so I couldn't use the .psd and .png options.
    I came across some info stating MS Word doesn't support CMYK jpeg which I did not realise.  So to solve the issue, I ended up opening the eps file as a Smart Object in RGB colour mode at the required resolution in Photoshop CS3 and then saving as jpeg.  The jpeg then printed perfectly after being inputted into a Word document - no blurriness or resolution issues.  I just had to advise the 'client' about the colour issues with RGB vs CMYK and not to use the jpegs for any professional printing.
    Thanks again.

  • Images saved from photoshop showing really dark in windows

    Hey! So i'm having some problems with creating images in photoshop and then exporting them into windows.

  • Import jpeg from photoshop into premiere pro CS5 and keep exact proportions.

    We are trying to insert jpegs into the timeline of a project that was captured DV movie frame 720 x 480.  A graphics person has created jpegs with the frame size of 1440 x 960.  When I import that into Premiere, we have a black space above and below the safe margins when I scale to frame size and am first wondering if that will be ok.  When I change the image size to 720 x 480 and import that and put it in the timeline, the pictures seem to be a little elongated. Can you please tell me how to import the jpegs into premiere and keep the exact proportions for the jpegs?

    By changing the pixel aspect ratio to 720 x 534, all works perfectly now.  Thank you for the help.

  • Printing from Photoshop CS4

    I have Photshop CS4. I create a picture with a specific size in Photoshop (eample: 8.5" x 11"). I send it to the printer. In the printer box it also shows the correct print size. However when it prints it is only a small sample of the picture. An 8.5' x 11" picture from Photoshop, showing that size in the Image box and in the Photoshop print box, when sent to the printer shows at the correct size and prints it at 2-3/4" x 3-1/2". If i save the picture from Photoshop onto my desktop, then open it in Microsogt Office Picture Manager, then send it to the exact same printer, it is printed out at the correct size. I don't know why it will not print it to the correct size from Photoshop.

    Printer is an HP Photosmart Premium. I believe I have the latest drivers. It
    has to be something in Photoshop. When I print the same picture from any
    other program it prints properly with this same printer. I just can't print
    anything from Photoshop to its correct size.
    Thank you for your email. Let me know if you can think of anything.

    Why is it so difficult to convert a Raw image to a jpeg in Photoshop Elements ?! I have version 12. Once i realized to change the tick box in Camera Raw to 8 bit instead of 16 bit and Flatten image ( sometimes can flatten image if the flatten option isn't greyed out) hey presto i thought i was up and running. However after saving the photograph as a jpeg and renaming it e, after the word edit. I switched off/on my computer only for all the images i had spent time working on to have disappeared. Feeling very upset as there is no Technical Help to telephone at adobe and i don't know what to do.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • Jpeg thumbnails too small when saved from Photoshop

    Since moving to Snow Leopard, I notice that the Finder shows jpegs saved from Photoshop quite a bit smaller than jpegs saved using other apps, like Preview or just scanned images. This makes viewing the thumbnails in the Finder harder. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?
    I would post a screen grab to show this, but I can't see how to do that here. If anyone knows, please let me know.
    Thanks

    That's because Photoshop creates its own rather smallish icons (by the new standards) for the files. If you remove custom thumbnails and let Finder draw them they'll be scalable all the way up to 512x512. There is a preference from within Photoshop to tell it to NOT create icons. Go to PS prefs, select Saving Files, and turn off Image Previews. The advantage is that the icons can be drawn larger; the disadvantage is that they will appear in Finder more slowly, since instead of simply displaying what is there Finder has to draw the icons. Furthermore, Finder doesn't always draw the icons with the clarity one would expect: sometimes they never do appear as sharp as they ought to be (there are several very lengthy threads discussing this problem, with no real solution), sometimes they slowly appear in all their large glory.
    Oh, and to post a picture, as in my signature, you have to have the image available somewhere online, then add an image tag.

  • Unable to transfer photos (jpeg) from desktop to SD card.  Appears as if successful then does not show up when put SD card in camera.

    Unable to transfer photos (jpeg) from desktop to SD card for Cannon Power shot camera. 
    Appears as if successful, jpegs show up in SD card window,  but they do not  show up when I put SD card in camera.
    Go through entire process to no avail.  SD card is not locked.
    Thank You

    Ahh, extra info ahead...
    Pictures on SD card, SanDisc-SDHC, 4GB Card, are jpeg.  The ones I would like to put on the card are jpeg as well.
    SD format MS-DOS (FAT32) .
    3.876 GB available on card.
    I have
    Exported the pics from iPhoto to the desktop. Inserted sd card into side of iMac.  The icon of card popped up.
    Attempts to no avail:
    1)   Dragged the photos to the disk icon for the sd card.
    2)   Dragged pictures into the DCIM folder (where all photos taken on camera resided).
    3)   Created new folder.  Put photos from desktop into folder and dragged ne folder inside DCIM -since pictures taken at different times had their own folders inside the DCIM folder.
    Every time the photos/files end up showing up on the sd card as long as it is in my computer but when ejected and inserted into my camera, all imported photos/jpeg file are gone.
    Hmmmmm

  • HT1725 When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?

    When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?
    i'm just wondering:
    a) why it does this
    and b) how to stop it doing this, because it still charges me for the song :/

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

    Yes, the printer is on, it’s selected in Printer Set-Up & I’ve never had this problem before. It’s definitely a Photoshop issue as every other type of file prints fine. I’ve uninstalled Pshop & am now reinstalling. Hope that will do the trick.

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    I answered my own question: There's a difference between "download' and "install." Hunt for "install" (1.5 hrs in my case) and line up your passwords, Adobe ID, etc, then install. Took 15 min. The right choice shows up in Applications. Now it's on to figuring out why photo selected for edit in iPhoto does not show up on screen in Elements.
