Large Photo Gets cropped when displayed in 4:3

I put a large still into my movie but the left and right portions are cropped out when I view it as a movie with a 4:3 ratio. What can I do to the photo to get the whole thing to display?

Photos get cropped when printed

I have some images that I am sending to my local Walmart for printing.
Walmart uses Fuji equipment.
When I get the prints back I've noticed that some of the prints have been 'cropped'. A portion of the top or bottom is missing. This is most noticeable because I have added text to the bottom of these photos and it is easy to see where the text gets cut. I've checked my images in Photoshop. The image size says exactly 4 x 6. I then upload the jpg using an ActiveX tool that gets run from the Walmart photo site. I've even checked some of my photos with the 'Print Preview' function. The preview looks fine. Just like my image on my pc. Any suggestions? I've also used Kodak's services. They provide a 'Cut and Trim' option that can be turned on or off. Turning it off provides a print that is exactly what was sent. Even if there is extra white space around the image. But everyone tells me there is no such option with Fuji.
Thanks for any help!

Randy,
1. I have had the same experience with the machine at CVS. I cropped them precisely @ 4x6" landscape at home, but their equipment went further.
2. Most recently I tried out Winkflash. They will give you 50 free prints, just pay $0.99 for postage. I did not perceive additional cropping. Try them. www.winkflash.com
3. Walter Mossberg, the WSJ computer guru, wrote a glowing report about the Kodak service. I have not tried this service.
4. Printing at home is OK for a few prints, but it tedious to do a bunch of snapshots, and also expensive when one factors in ink and paper.

Do photos get resized when sending from PSE 6 to PE 4?

Do photos get resized when moving them from PSE 6 to PE4?
I've come to understand that using overly large photos in slide shows in PE 4 can cause lots of issues, and its recommended to resize photos to 1000x750 (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bb8822c) before including them in a slide show in PE4. I'm trying to understand the implications of working with photos in PSE 6 and then moving to PE 4 vs. just doing it directly in PE 4.
I can imagine (at least) two scenarios:
1. I have all my photos in PE6 and want to work ONLY in PE4. I'm guessing i would resize my photos in the PSE 6 Organizer by using File-->Export and picking a smaller file size (e.g., 1024 x 768) and then import them into PE4 and build my slide show there.
2. I have all my photos in PSE 6 and want to to create a slide show there and then move it to PE 4 to touch it up or do some fancy stuff to it. Will the photos be resized so PE 4 won't have trouble with them or do i need to resize them in PSE 6, reimport them into PSE 6, build the slide show, and THEN send it to PE 4?

eric,
See my post over at http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b85fd0/4
for reasons why I think that for your current objectives, working in Premiere Elements (rather than making a slide show in PSE) will be a better choice.
>1. I have all my photos in PE6 and want to work ONLY in PE4. I'm guessing i would resize my photos in the PSE 6 Organizer by using File-->Export and picking a smaller file size (e.g., 1024 x 768) and then import them into PE4 and build my slide show there.
Yes.
A couple of considerations
1- Where will you establish the sequence of the photos in the slide show?
Are you making an Album in PSE 6 in order to establish the sequence of the slides as you are selecting which photos to use? if YES, we can experiment with sending the photo files in their Album sequence to Premiere Elements.
Or will you establish the sequence of the photos within Premiere Elements?
2- When working in Premiere Elements will you be able to do the 600 slides in a single PE project?
I don't know the answer to this: it will be influenced by your system configuration.

TS1503 do all my photos get backup when i plug into itunes

do all my photos get backup when i plug into itunes

Yes, but you should not rely on that, and they are not viewable. They are only for restoring your iphone.
You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

Photo from iPhoto gets cropped when inserted into iMovie

My old video (miniDV camcorder, DV) is 4:3 and lower resolution than my photos (16:9, good digicam). I inserted a vertical photo into a video project, and the photo gets truncated on playback.
I expected it to be scaled to fit when shown on the screen, like iPhoto does.
Am I doing something wrong? Please tell me iMovie handles inserted photos sensibly.

WHat version of iMovie, and iPhoto?
THIs forum is for iMovie iOS (iPads, iPhones).
Are you talking about iMovie for Mac?

Photos are cropped when going to print

Photos display properly when viewing but when any sort of print routine is initiated the image is seriously cropped, usually left and right sides. Trying to set print parameters, no border, etc., images are still always cropped.

Make sure the aspect ration (length to breadth) of the photo matches the aspect ratio you've chosen for printing.
In other words, if you're printing 5 x 7 make sure that the photo is cropped to that ratio, not 4:3 like many digital cameras produce.

Photos get lighter when I switch from 1.1 RAW to 2.0 RAW

All of my photos get a bit lighter and less saturated when I switch to using the 2.0 RAW decoder. I prefer the 1.1 decoder, except there are fewer options. This is with all default settings. It would be a shame to have to then go and darken and tweak the saturation on every shot.

since the decoder varies for each camera, i think it depends on the camera you are using..i have the same issue with my 5D..images get lighter and less saturated..however images shot with my 40D get darker and more saturated..
for the 5D images though, i do gain more detail in the shadow areas..but for most of my photos that have already been tweaked/adjusted, there's no need for me to go back and reinvent the wheel by tweaking again.

Photo's get cropped when I try to make an album - help

Hi
I'm trying to make an album in iphoto '08 but my photo's keep being cropped because they aren't the right size for the templates. (I'd saved a lot of my landscapes 16:9 so the right and left edges are cropped out.)
can anyone tell me what the template sizes are, i can't work it out.
thanks very much

Right-click on a photo inside its frame in the book and see if there's a command "Fit photo to frame" or similar. That will allow you to keep the proportions of your photos.
I don't have experience with iPhoto '08, but in v6 most of the frames are 4:3
Here's the explanation from the iPhoto 6 Help:
*Aligning photos evenly on book pages*
iPhoto books are designed to display photos that have a 4 x 3 size ratio, the most common ratio for consumer digital cameras. Photos may not line up evenly on pages where they appear side by side if your camera does not capture images at this ratio or if you cropped a photo in your library without constraining your selection to 4 x 3.
To ensure photos are properly aligned, crop them to a size ratio of 4 x 3. (See Related Topics below.)
You can also try to align a photo in a book by changing its size to fit the book frame. Press the Control key while clicking the photo, and then choose "Fit Photo to Frame Size" from the shortcut menu.
If you don't like the way photos are arranged on a page, you can also choose a different book theme or page design.
You may want to confirm that this has not changed in v7 by checking the Help file.
Regards.

Why do screenshot borders get cropped when they're imported?

Hi, FrameMaker 10 Windows 7, images created in SnagIt 10 and then SnagIt 8.
Hi,
First of all thank you for your great help, especially Van Kurtz! Now I have another problem.
When I take a screenshot, I put a border around it in SnagIt. I import the images in anchored frames, which I've managed to tame. However, the image imports without borders. I use 300dpi and tried reducing to 275, but I can't reduce any more as the company requests that we use 300 and also, the images would be blurry.
After I import, I hold the Shift key drag the border of the image to get it the size I want in the anchored frame (BTW is there any way to do this automatically, as in InDesign?) and there is still no border (and there wasn't one when the image was originally imported).
Why is the border cropped? This usually happens at only one or two sides, not completely, usually the bottom or right sides, and randomly. The image is always well inside the anchored frame.
Thank you so much in advance!
Susan
PS I thought this might be solved when I saved the doc as PDF, but no. And the printed doc is identical to the PDF on the screen.
PSS Is this the fault of the older version of SnagIt (8)? I used SnagIt 10 til my trial ran out and then was forced to switch to 8. It may just be that I didn't notice this problem until recently, but some of my images in the document ARE okay with borders complete.

> The choices are expressed in dpi with inches (or points or picas) in parentheses.
For a bitmap imported as EPS (and, I suspect, PDF), the choice is a percentage, default 100%. FM won't give you any clue about what the originating dpi is, so you have to know, if you care. And the preview image is of no visual help, because it will be a coarse 72 dpi indexed color at 100%.
> NOTE this does NOT change the logical resolution (dpi) of the image, just the physical display size.
Strictly speaking, it does change the dpi. What doesn't change is the overall pixel dimensions. If you import a 1x1inch 100x100 dpi screenshot TIFF at 2x2 inches, it will be 50 dpi (but still 100x100 pixels).
Borders can be applied by Framemaker itself, and they will be vector, and not subject to scaling, aliasing or vanishing at small scales. Applying borders prior to rasterization or in a raster editor often has unhappy results.
Next hurdle: rendering to PDF. Save-as, Print-to or Distill are all subject to the Job Options, which can easily have defaulted to "subsample to really blurry with nasty compression artifacts". Make sure the settings preserve the res you desire for the data structure involved (bitmap, contone gray or contone color). e.g. "downsample to 300 dpi for images above 450 dpi", and LZW or ZIP compression for screenshots, as a rule.

Photos get blurry when I bring them into iMovie.

When ever I bring any of my photos (full res. from my canon 5D 12 mega pixel or high res neg scans) into iMovie they look horrible. They just get blurry.
Whats the deal. I know the images or tac sharp. If I tether my camera to my TV and view them, they look great. Put them in imovie 2, 4, or 5...they look bad. whats the deal?

delongt, there are tons of topics here discussing image quality in all versions of iMovie. Try using the forum's search function to search for words like "blurry", "jaggies", etc. You'll find lots of useful information, including how to avoid a bug or two that affects the quality of the DVD you burn.
It's important to realize that iMovie NEVER shows you all the image quality that's actually there. (iMovie is a video editor, not a video player.) So don't judge the quality by what you see in iMovie.
That said, ALL images imported to iMovie are converted to Digital Video. They are no longer high-res images, so they won''t look as good as the originals. They are considerably better than what you see displayed in iMovie, however.
The important consideration is not how they appear in iMovie, but how they appear on a TV, playing the DVD you burn of the project. Everything else you can pretty much ignore.

Large Banner - Word Crops when Scaling Up

I'm trying to create a banner and need to have a large font 1000+.
It looks fine when I'm scaling the font, but when I move to another layer and the font layer renders, it crops the left and right side of the word.
Any idea how to get around this? I've reduced the size to 50% (4'x2') and it still occurs.
I'm using Photoshop 6 (not sure if this was a bug then)

The 2nd page print scaling error has been an issue with Firefox on the Mac since 2011. People at Mozilla have not considered this a major problem. Try printing anything at less than 100% and you'll quickly see how every page after the first page being scaled wrong gets old real fast. The lack of a solution to this issue forced me long ago into using Safari as my primary browser. Good luck waiting until version 21 for a solution. Current release is 18.0.2.

Why does my screen get cropped when using my 30" Dell 3008 WFP with my MacBook Pro 15" Retina?

I'm using a standard HDMI to HDMI connection and it's cropping my screen down (on the dell monitor) by roughly 10 percent or so. It cuts off the whole top File/Command bar as well as the little icons at the bottom...

Lincoln, I tried switchres but without any good results. You mentioned getting an adapter and another hdmi from monoprice earlier but your link didn't work. Any chance you could explain what you meant?
Shootist, whenever I hit the option key down the only change is the "Gather Windows" tab at the bottom right corner of the window changes to "Detect Displays", but neither of them seem to do anything when I click on it... so frustrating.
Also, I have yet to find a "Extended Desktop" option that I hear about on these forums. Still, whenever I deselect the Mirror option, it does produce an extended desktop (even if that expression is curiously never used on my comp) however when i try to change its settings it won't let me go past 1920 by 1200 even though the monitor is supposed to go up to 2560 by 1600 I believe...

Lumia520 photos get corrupted when transfered or c...

i have a lumia 520 (amber updated; purchased about 3 months back; india).
when i click photos, i am able to see them on the phone.
when i transfer them (whether through windows phone app or file transfer) to my windows 8 laptop, OR when i upload them on skydrive, i can see some photos, while some can not be opened(message - windows photo viewer can't open this picture because the file appears to be damaged, corrupted or is too large)
these 'corrupted' pictures show up as a blue square in the PC and skydrive.
i am not even able to edit some of the photos on the phone.
and i recently found that these photos that i am not able to edit on the phone are the ones that show up as corrupted files in skydrive and my PC.
i am stumped as to why some photos are ok and some don't open?
please help!
thank you.

try to do a soft reset and see if it is just a setting that keeps crashing when uploading or transferring to your pc.
if that doesn't work, then you should do a full hard reset.
if it was just that you couldn't get the files from the skydrive after uploading through your wifi, then I would say that there could have been issues in the transmission where maybe you were cut off the wifi before the file completed, causing the error. however, you are also having issues with cable transfer of the files to your pc directly and with the windowsphone application you downloaded from the windows 8 store and adjusting/editing those same files on your device itself, suggesting you could have file corruption.
the soft reset should fix it if it is some setting that seems to be getting stuck in the process of transferring items from the device. if it doesn't, back up any images/videos/etc from your device and then try the hard reset after.

My photos get distorted when I synch my ipod

I used to have my ipod synched to a computer running Windows XP and everything worked fine. Now I restored my ipod in order to use it with my new computer, which runs Windows Vista and I have some problems. Sometimes, when I am synching my photos I get a blue screen in my computer saying that there has been a problem and that Windows has been shut down. It also says that I may ned to disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing? What is this about?
Also, the photos that are succesfully I synched look distorted in my ipod (colors are changed, big squares of diiferent colors show up, etc.). Any ideas on how to solve these problems? Thanks

Hi
I have the same problem !
I have a 60GB iPod and a new DELL E521 with Vista. On my old XP system everything worked fine. I did dync more than 10000 pictures.
On Vitsa, the sync took forever, even after i selected a folder with just 3 pictures. So i deleted the folder 'ipod picture cache' and did try a sync again.
This finished after some 10 Minutes !! but i have got the same crasy colors as you mentioned.
My version FW on iPOD: 1.2.1
iTunes: 7.4.3.1
To me it sounds as nobody did test that at Apple.
These guys are producing Software like everyone: With Bugs ! Lots of Bugs !

Why do my photos get blurry when they are enlarged to full screen from the disc I burn, or played on the t.v.? I set the burn on the highest quality. The photos don't look blurry when enlarged from iphoto on the computer.

Why do my photos that are transferred from iphoto to idvd, and then burned on DVD, look blurry when the idvd is shown full screen on computer or on t.v. They don't look blurry when I enlarge the iphoto pics on the computer. I used the 'prof. quality" encoding setting before burning, and before putting photos on idvd.

Hi
DVD is as standard - only interlaced SD-Video (as on old CRT-TVs) and can never be any better than this.
This is less than a quarter of Your Mac screen resolution.
That's one part of Why You can see High res. on Your Mac - and not on DVD.
Next part is what program is used to make the SlideShow.
If You use iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - to make it - it too degrades the final result as non of them can deliver interlaced SD-Video to iDVD but only half (every second line in the picture)
I use
• iMovie HD6 or
• FinalCut (any version) or
• FotoMagico™
As they all delivers 100% of what iDVD or Toast™ or DVD Studio Pro or Whatever needs.
Yours Bengt W
