Making large format XPS files

My client wants an xps file of a large document that I'm working on in InDesign CS3. (28" x 7"). Using a PC with CS4, I find my only options to make an XPS file are to reduce the size to fit it on standard paper sizes, I can't change it to my document size. Is there any way to make it larger, or fill in the custom size? This is to be posted on a website and viewed, so the smaller size is an issue.
Thanks in advance!

It sounds more of a problem with XPS page sizes than with InDesign's ...
Try adding your custom page size this way: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher-help/how-to-add-a-custom-paper-size-to-publish er-HA001129576.aspx
(It sounds like it's not relevant, but on a Microsoft programmer's forum the poster said, quote:
"You need to add a new custom paper size. I was able to dig up an Office-related description of how to do this, but the steps are the same.")

    The command is gone because iDVD has been discontinued by Apple. After Apple discontinued iDVD they removed the iDVD burning link from iMovie. I still use iDVD sometimes, only because I have an old copy.

    You have mentioned about Handbrake as a converter.  What is the RF no.

Again, what is the best rate?  Furthermore, which format is more suitable or the best: H264 or mpeg 2/4?
    I don't know what RF means. When I have used HandBrake, I've used presets that apply to what I want to do, so I don't know the meaning of each individual setting. However, it appears that many of them are listed in the HandBrake User's Guide that is linked from the Help menu in the program:

    For iMac, except iMovie, what other software is the best for the amateur?  I have read Photoshop.  Can this support m2ts files and user friendly?
    Photoshop is not amateur-level software, and although it can edit a video, it cannot burn a DVD. Unfortunately, because I still use iMovie, I haven't tried anything else. You might want to read the reviews of various DVD-burning applications in the Mac App Store.

    trying to copy a 10gb file to a memory stick but there's an error msg, file to large for the file format of the stick. is there a way around this

    If you use 'Disc Utility' you can format the stick (this will erase its contents) to be exFat which will still work with Mac and Windows but allow a larger file sizes to be placed onto the stick.
    Disc Utility > Click the drive on the left > Erase (tab) > Change format to ExFat > Erase > Try putting the file on to the stick again.

  • Converting XPS file to PDF

    Hello, 
    I need to write program which automatically convert all xps files from foler into pdfs. One of my ideas is using pattern -> Opening XPS file, then printing it with "Adobe PDF" printer. 
    Can you give me any help how I can write a program to do it? Or maybe you have another idea how I can do it? 
    Thank you for your help. 
    Best regards,
    Robert

    Hello, 
    Thank you for your answer. I really appreciate your help, but I need to write this conversion part manually and put into my macro (which is making a lot of more stuff, and this will be one of it functionality). Do you have any idea how I can do it?
    Basically, write I wrote before it just need to open a file, and print it with "Adobe PDF" printer. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it.  
    Hello,
    For converting xps file to pdf, if your pc installed Office, then you could consider the way shared in the following thread.

    ExWB.ExportAsFixedFormat(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlFixedFormatType.xlTypePDF, "yourexportedfilename")
    and
    Hi narayanan_1983,
    This article will tell you how to convert XPS file to PDF in vb.net:
    http://www.aspose.com/docs/display/pdfnet/Convert%20XPS%20files%20to%20PDF%20format
    From this article, we know that you could use  a class named
    [{{XpsLoadOptions}}] which is used to initialize a LoadOptions object. Later, this object is passed as an argument during the
    Document object initialization and it helps the PDF rendering engine to determine the source document's input format.
    ' Instantiate LoadOption object using XPS load option
    Dim options As Aspose.Pdf.LoadOptions = New XpsLoadOptions()
    ' Create document object
    Dim document As Aspose.Pdf.Document = New Aspose.Pdf.Document("D:\source.xps", options)
    ' Save the resultant PDF document
    document.Save("D:\resultant.pdf")
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

  • Where do I get large format Album Covers? FetchArt copies poor quality...

    Hi,
    I have digitized my vinyl collection with professional help,
    but they were not Tagged, because a few years ago the ID3-Tagging wasn't that popular.
    I managed to update 70% of my 25.000 files with iEatBrainz.
    Then I was looking with FetchArt for Album Covers, because FrontRow without Album Picture is bulls**t.
    So I tried FetchArt, but many Pictures copied from Amazon are too small (too small in size / Quality of the Picture).
    Therefore I am looking for a nice Script or a Homepage to find Large Format Cover Pictures. Because Google Picture is not that good...

    Hi DamianALugo,
    This is just unacceptable, and if this was my purchase I would be equally upset. If an employee promises a call to a customer they should be making that call, and you should have been given an accurate explanation as to why these deliveries were being rescheduled.
    The only times a BestBuy.com order would be automatically cancelled by us would be if it was set to be picked up in one of our stores, and it wasn’t picked up in a timely manner; the only other time would be if an order was on backorder for a period of time without the customer requesting us to extend this backorder.
    Is there anything specific I can do to get this resolved for you? If so, post back to this thread or send me a private message with what you need. I promise to do what I can to get you any resolution you are seeking. To send me a private message click on the link in my signature.

  • Unable to print from Photoshop CS4 in an iMac OS 10.6.3 to large format printer Epson 11880

    Hi there! I was wondering if you could help me with this case.
    Old computer: Mac G4  (purchased in 2002)
    Old OS: OS 10.4.11  (Tiger)
    CPU: Dual 1.25 GHz
    Memory: 2 RAM
    Software: Photoshop 7
    Hardware: Large format printer: Epson 11880 (64” wide monster). Prints large posters, banners, etc.
    As you can see, it is time for an upgrade...
    New computer: iMac
    New OS: OS 10.6.3  (Snow Leopard)
    Processor Name: Intel Core i7
    Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 4
    Memory: 16 GB
    Software: Photoshop CS4
    Hardware: Large format printer: Epson 11880
    Situation: We hooked up everything and managed to print on the 11880 printer 2 times and printed two large format prints. On the third attempt, we encountered a serious problem...
    Problem: After opening a file in Photoshop and sending it out for printing in the large format Epson printer, the file goes to the printer queue and stays there for 6 seconds, and then it disappears. It does not print. :-(
    What we have done so far:
    We made sure we downloaded the latest printer driver for this printer from Epson’s website.
    The printer driver is correct. The computer talks to the printer and we are able to execute all the commands from the printer utilities panel. (i.e. check ink levels, clean heads, etc.)
    And yes, the printer is okay, because we have been using it with the old G4 machine for about a year.
    This problem got so frustrating, that we thought that something we transferred during the computer installation might be the culprit. So at one point we erased the hard drive on the new computer and reinstalled the operating system, and have not put any files from any old computers into this machine. The computer has nothing else in it. Except: The operating systems, and the Mac applications that come when the Mac comes out of the box. The only other program installed in it is Photoshop CS4 and the printer driver.
    We were wondering if this was just a printing problem, period. So we added a small printer to the computer - and old Epson 2200 we have. We sent a file to this printer and there is not problem.
    Perhaps, the file size might have been an issue? It does not matter. We can send a large 60 MB file to the printer or a small photograph measuring only 8 x 10, and these will linger in the queue for 6 seconds, and disappear never to be printed.
    Temporary relief came when we got rid of Adobe Photoshop’s Preferences file. After getting rid of the file and allowing Photoshop to reconstruct it, we managed to print two large files on the printer. Then it failed again. Tried getting rid of the preferences again, and the trick did not work anymore. :-(
    Another temporary relief came when we created another user in the computer. On the new user account it printed again a couple of times only to fail later.
    And yes, the printer WILL print from other Mac programs. If for instance, we open a file on Preview, and send it to the printer and the file will be printed. And yes, we have managed to print very large files with this method.
    In the last couple of days, we have spent 3 hours on the phone with the guys at Epson. They verified the driver and because the computer seems to be communicating with the printer and printing from other Mac applications, they suspected that the problem is with Adobe.
    We called Adobe once, and spent 30 minutes with an Indian fellow who concluded that the problem was with how the computer handles the spooling. According to him, Photoshop sends the file to the computer and the computer seems to get rid of it. So he passed the buck and told us that the problem was with Apple.
    We called Apple and spoke for 30 minutes with a friendly technician, who transferred us to a higher level techno-geek. I spent 1 more hour on the phone with Apple, and we tried everything. We went through Adobe’s knowledgebase and tried every suggested solution (see Adobe’s KB406452). It was with him that we found a temporary fix of removing the Preferences file, but the solution was short lived. He finally thought the problem was with Adobe as the printer is able to print from all applications EXCEPT Adobe Photoshop.
    We called Adobe for the second time...and after waiting on hold from 1 entire hour, we got an Indian technician, that bless his heart, had a very thick accent and had no expertise, in my opinion. He was good at collecting data and he even made me share my computer screen so that he could troubleshoot the problem. After being constantly put on hold by him (because he had to consult with someone else), he passed the buck and said that it was Apple’s problem. I just told him that it was not as likely because all programs print EXCEPT Photoshop. After trying what I would consider a “hail Mary” of DELETING all the printers from my Library folder, and not replacing them, he recorded a case number for another Adobe technician to call us in a few days.
    Because the above technician completely blew the Library, I just erased and reinstalled the OS. This time, I did not allow the OS to be updated - from 10.6.2 (that comes in the box), to 10.6.3. We tried printing using the 10.6.2 and had the same problem. :-(
    Conclusion: I think it is a problem of Adobe CS4 not getting along with Apple’s new operating system. The Epson printer is doing fine, because it has been a product that has been in the market for almost 3 years. What is disappointing is that none of the companies wants to man up and say that it is a problem and that they are willing to work on it. Instead they pass the buck to the next company.
    I can’t believe I am the only person experiencing this. Has anyone had this problem, and have you found a solution or workaround for it?

    Dear Doyle, John and Gator Soup,
    Thank you for your kind replies to my problem.
    PS is assigned 70% RAM. In fact, I have never had so much RAM in my life. Files open at lightning fast speed! :-)  We have never considered a RIP as we do not have an intense workload. In fact all the files we have tried to print print well on our old G4 with Tiger and Photoshop 7, which at the moment has saved our butt. However it would be nice to get the new faster machine with Photoshop CS4 to talk to the Epson 11880.
    Yes, we are printing directly to the printer. We have hooked up the computer via a 6 ft USB cable to the unit.
    The specs and pixel dimensions of a typical file we print are:
    Type of file: tif  (in this case it is an RGB file) // However, we avoid any color management from the computer or the printer when printing it at this time.
    File size: 60 MB
    Pixel size: 6796 x 3100
    Print size: 34" x 16" @ 200 dpi
    I have not tried saving it as a pdf yet. Will try that next.
    I did go to the Console on the Mac though, and recorded its activity between 5:14 pm - 5:19 pm when I tried to print a file.
    Remember, the symptoms are:  We send a file to the printer...The file goes to the printer queue, and it lingers there for 6 seconds. The file then disappears.
    Although there is a cryptic message of "invalid colorspace" in the log, I don't believe that the file is corrupt. First because we have tried several files, second because smaller versions of these can be printed in another Epson 2200 printer, and third because the large format images can still be printed using our old G4 machine with Tiger and Photoshop 7.
    This might provide me with extra ammunition for when I call both Adobe and Apple on Monday. Apple has been quite good on customer support - particularly when they upgrade you to higher level geeks. ;-)   Do you have any idea I what time I should call Adobe so that I can get people on the western hemisphere to answer the phone? It seems that after a certain time they start speaking with an Indian accent over there.
    Enclosed, for whatever is worth, is the Console's log:

  • How can I make a photograph large enough for large format printing?

    Is there a way to make an image larger on photoshop or illustrator? I will be printing on a large format latex printer. So the printer itself is excellent but its the image that i am struggling to acquire.
    I have basic knowledge of the programmes but if you could explain it to me i could figure it out.....
    I am aware of rasterize and vectors, but please  could you explain how they work, and if that is my solution.
    I want to keep the original photograph as realistic as possible (would prefer not to have it traced on illustrator) and from research it says simply increasing the image size amount of pixels on photoshop does not help...perhaps it does, if you know please help!
    This will be a print for an interior wall of an exhibition trailer, and we want to cover all the walls. Plus in future we will be printing for vehicle wraps so I need this knowledge! Help me

    Let e try to explain briefly...
    "Is there a way to make an image larger on photoshop or illustrator? I will be printing on a large format latex printer. So the printer itself is excellent but its the image that i am struggling to acquire.
    - The actual resolution necessary to print grand format depends on the printer.  Most of the large-to-grand format inkjets print at 600dpi.  Photoshop is the better application for sizig images, while Illustrator is the better application for sizing graphics ( ie., logos ) and type.  Use Illustrator to layout both the images and the graphics.  You typically would send the print vendor an appropriate PDF file ( that can be scaled ).
    I have basic knowledge of the programmes but if you could explain it to me i could figure it out.....

    - You most certainly can use photographs in large format.  The problem is you will have to setup the file scaled down.  In some cases, the output will have to be assembled in sections.  Let's take a section of 10 feet high x 36 feet long.  You'd setup your Illustrator file 2.5 feet high x 9 feet long ( 25% ) or 30 inch x 108 inch to be enlarged at the printer 400%.  Each time you enlarge an image 2x you cut its resolution in half.  So, an image starting at 300ppi will end up at 75ppi.  So, your image file would need to be 300ppi at 25%. 75ppi sounds low, right?  In actuality, it is enough to print grand format and the image appears smooth. Now the question becomes, how do I get an image large enough in Photoshop?  Remember, you'll need a 30" x 108" image plus bleed at 300ppi ( Placed in Illustrator at 100% ).  There are applications like Genuine Fractals or Image Doctor's "Blowup" which will enlarge an image file without degradation.  I use Genuine Fractals and the results are phenominal.
    This will be a print for an interior wall of an exhibition trailer, and we want to cover all the walls. Plus in future we will be printing for vehicle wraps so I need this knowledge! Help me "
    - It'll become easier as you do more of this type of work.  The amount you end up scaling is up to you.  There are limitations as to how big a document can be in Illustrator.  I like 25% because it is similar to working on a print ad that is high resolution.  Another thing to remember is set your raster effects to High in Illustrator.  They will be retained in the PDF which will be enlarged 400% and the ending raster effects will be 75ppi just like the image.  Also, feel free to contact the print vendor and ask them questions.  You could send them what I've written here and see if they agree.  Let me know if you have any further questions.

  • Transferring large volume of files from mac to PC?

    Hi i have a mac with osx 10.4.8 and a pc, i need to transfer a large amount of files from mac to pc (around 200GB)
    Now i have lots of external HDs which are all used by either the PC or the macs. the ones formatted for the macs cannot be read atall by the PC without some expensive software, the PC formatted one i have appears to be readable on the mac, but when i try to copy the files onto it or change anything, i am not able to change/add anythingn due to permissions problems.
    Not sure what to do, i have quite a few HDs with plenty of sapce, but if they are all in the wrong format i cant really wipe/reformat them easily with files on them, nor do i want to buy yet another HDD just to transfer some files....
    Any ideas/advice?

  • Bridge freezes when applying camera raw settings to large number of files

    I have a folder with 32,000 frames from a time-lapse project that I'm doing. I'd like to apply the same camera raw adjustments to all of these files, and so follow one of the two methods below - neither of which are working with such a large set of files:
    Method 1:
    Select all files, open in camera raw.
    Apply changes to the first image
    Select all images, then synchronize the changes to all other images.
    Unfortunately selecting "Open in Camera Raw..." just leaves bridge to hang. It's using a lot of memory and processor time, so I would assume it's working, but there's no progress bar or similar to indicate that it is.
    Method 2:
    Open first file in Camera Raw
    Apply all changes, and exit camera raw.
    Select all files in Bridge, right click on one and select "Develop Settings -> Previous Conversion"
    Unfortunately the final step again leaves bridge just thinking. I waited around an hour, closed bridge, but unfortunately when I opened it again there was no sign that it had copied the camera raw settings onto any of the other files. My computer's pretty slow (see below) but it should have written one xmp file in an hour.
    Question:
    Does anyone have any workarounds other than repeating the process 32 times for 1000 images at a time?

    The files are only 2MP each, and I have the same issue when I apply the changes to RAW files and JPG files. The error occurs though before any changes are applied, before the images would need to be recached, as when the error doesn't occur the dialogue box I mentioned pops up asking what to change.
    Your specs sound more then enough I would think. Do you have set the option to Write cache to folders when possible and if so could you uncheck that option?
    I don't have experience with this kind of numbers but I do dump the Bridge cache manually on a regular base (every new cycle it seems to be more stable so more interval in the periods of dumping cache) but my main folder contains usually around 6 to 7 K of DNG files from 21 MP dSLR. This starts caching without problems but takes a few hours before done.
    Can't use the option cache for folder due to a longstanding problem with error message to replace the CacheT file, hence my question about your setting.
    Also I have set the option to previews Always HQ and in the prefs have set the option to build monitor size previews.
    As said, don't know the large numbers but the 2 MP files are very small and it should be possible for Bridge I would think?
    Did you also try to create a new folder and place the files inthere. Or divide them in to three folders for testing?

  • How do I place a large format image into Illustrator

    I am trying to place a large format image that I created in Photoshop into Illustrator. I have tried PSD, TIFF, and JPG. I have even cropped down the image into smaller portions to try to make it easier to work with. Every time I try to Place the image I get a dialogue box saying,"The file 'Water 1.jpg' is in an unknown format and cannot be opened.' Can anyone help with this?

    I would guess the file is simply too big.  Make sure the document is in RGB mode.  If I were you, I would never submit a file that size at 300ppi for large format.  Large or grand format printers only need around 100 to 144ppi at 100% final size.  Also, set the Illustrator file up at 25% scale and place the image at 25% @ 300ppi ( image resolution ends up around 75ppi which is still plenty when enlarged 400% to final size ).  Getting back to the original error message, it could be the system is running out of both RAM and scratch disk space and cannot deal with the preview required.  Better to scale the file down for large format.

  • Why is menu size so much larger than the files?

    I am somewhat perplexed - I'm making a single-layer dvd and have a simple single screen theme (no animation) - it has one drop zone. The movie has 28 chapters so there are five of them, but so far I've added only one montage of photos to each menu page - it's a "mobile" quality in media browser and ave only 10 - 20 MB, then one song. On average these movie clips are 1:00 to 2:00 min long and the music is cut to that length. So, all told, it's probably less than 110 MB in files - but when I look at the project properties, the menus are 3301 MB!!!
    The movie itself is only 1.1 GB so what is going on?
    It's preventing me from doing the project and I've got no idea why it's making the menu size so much larger than the file sizes?
    Can you please help me figure out what to do?
    Alexa

    The 2 min clips were natively 2 min - I had each one separate and actually converted to media browser in "mobile" size (b/c the drop zone was 4 x 6 in size in the theme). They were tiny - in most cases I was shortening the audio (e.g. the song was 4 minutes and I was setting the loop to only 1:30 b/c that's how long the video clip was on the menu).
    BUT, to resolve the question (I always like to post the answer) - I ended up duplicating the project to try to reimport the video. It was a fresh iDVD project and I happened to click on the project tree of screens - and, lo and behold, the ENTIRE menu was duplicated for some reason (and the movie, actually). I went back to the original and it was the same! I have no idea how that would happen do you? It only had one main menu screen - and then an entire duplicate menu - which I wouldn't even know how to access if I didn't see it in the project menu tree?
    The only think of is that at one point I added a title menu link to the scene selection - it gave me a warning that my menu was more than 12 minutes, did I want to fix or ignore and fix later - which confused me b/c it was under 12 min, then but I clicked ignore. Does that create an alternate title menu and send people back to something else?
    Anyway, I deleted the entire extra scene selection menus (5 of them) and it was back to under 4 GB.
    So, I was able to burn, but still wondering about creating the "title menu" link on scene selections? It drives me crazy that it doesn't automatically do that so I like to add "main menu" links.
    Thanks for your help!

  • How does one print to a Large Format Network Printer in Adobe Reader X?

    I have just installed Adobe Reader X on a machine that previously had Adobe Reader 9 (I had to format the hard drive so this is a fresh installation).  When attempting to print to a large format Printer (36x24) across the network I cannot change the paper size.  Despite attempting to change the paper size to a number of different configurations Adobe X will not print anything but 8.5"x11.0" (which is the default paper size on the local printer).  I have tried making the network printer the default printer and that does not make any difference.  Everything worked fine with Adobe Reader 9 but not X.  Can anyone offer any suggestions?
    Also, I can print to both the local printer and the large format network printer fine through other applications.
    Thanks.

    Just finished testing 10.10 printing via a Windows 2008 R2 print share. I also found that when trying to add the printer using CUPS I would get an authentication error. But if I added the printer using the Windows section of the Add printer pane, then I was able to print fine.
    So with you mentioning that using the Windows section of the Add printer window has never worked (which is interesting because it's always worked for me) I want to suggest another approach to adding the printer, still using the Add printer window. With this window open you can right-click on the toolbar and select Customize Toolbar. You can then drag the Advanced icon to the toolbar. Then when you select this, you can set the Type menu to "Windows via spoolss" and then enter the URL as smb://servername/sharename. Select the supporting driver and click Add to complete.
    Then when you select to print for the first time using this printer you will be prompted to authenticate. Enter the account details, set the save to Keychain option and OK to send the print job.
    This worked fine for me and creates the same queue as using the Windows add printer setting. Curious to hear if this gets your co-worker printing again.

  • Is there a practical size limit on JPEG format image files?

    I have noticed when working with Photoshop v7.0 on Windows XP that, when creating a JPEG format image file from a very large scanned image (more than 800 Mb, maybe), the .jpg file will usually be saved on disk at any of the possible compression ratios available, without any reported error, yet when the saved file is re-opened, an error is reported - something along the lines of "missing or corrupted end of file marker" - and the image cannot be loaded.
    If before saving the original image is substantially reduced in size, e.g. by reducing the resolution of the image, a viable JPEG format file can be created, which will subsequently load successfully, though technically with data loss.
    This appears to happen only with JPEG format files - PDF format files can be saved from the original image at similar JPEG compression ratios, without error on reloading.
    I do not know if this also occurs with any other Photoshop versions.  I am working with Adobe Photoshop v7.0 on Windows XP, although we are preparing to upgrade to CS (which version I don't know) in the near future, for different reasons to those which are detailed above.
    Does anyone know if there is a technical explanation for this behaviour?  Is there a file size limit for writing viable JPEG files (which Photoshop does not report as an error when exceeded)?
    Thanks

    that's what I gathered from "JPEG cannot [...] in Photoshop (code difficult to replace)".
    But if you say this is in the works right now, that's good news indeed.

    Anyway, you gave an honest answer on this technical issue, Chris, and that's what counts.

  • I want firefox to open Microsoft XPS files rather than use Internet Explorer

    Microsoft's XPS file format (their take on PDF files) can be opened only by Internet Explorer. Does a plugin exist to allow XPS files to be opened in Firefox - if so I can't find one. I would have thought this was a common request!
    To avoid having to deal with the time consuming "open with" dialogue I have made IE the default browser but I'd rather use Firefox.
