Merge swatches should be allowed with embedded raster objects

For clarity:
Open a new document. Import two PMS swatches of your choice. Draw a box. Fix the box with one of the PMS colors. Rasterize the box at 300 ppi. Now, suddenly, you realize that you want the box colored the second PMS swatch. However, after you try to simply merge the swatches, Illustrator refuses to do so.
Obviously I gave a watered down example, but you get the idea. I can understand you can't merge swatches with a linked image, but I don't understand why the code can't be written to allow merging of swatches with embedded raster objects.

  • Word 2010 Document with embedded pdf objects

    Is it possible to convert a word 2010 document with embedded pdf object into a PDF without loosing the functiuonality of double clicking on the Acrobat icon and opening the (embedded) document?
    Thank you for your help.

    Pretty sure that the PDF will contain exactly what you'd get if you printed the Word document. There is no promise or expectation that objects will be "live".

  • Problem with embedded OLE objects

    I am using Outlook as client.
    I sent mail with Excel table as embeddet object.
    Outlook can after what read and show this mail.
    But if I read this mail with SOAP I get a message body without Excel table.
    I thought it should be in attachment.
    hasAttachments-filed in mail object is true, but attachments-filed is empty (not null!): attachments=AttachmentItemInfo[0].
    I am reading mail with getItemRequest and view = "default attachments attachment message attachments".
    We are using Groupwise 8.0.1 HP1.
    What is hier wrong? How can I read OLE object with SOAP?

    The complete response was not included.
    If you are trying to save an embedded OLE attachment,
    there is no logic to do that on the POA, the attachment
    will be dropped.

  • How do I disable smoothing when merging flat layer(pixel art) with a 3d object in Photoshop CC 2014?

    After doing some painting on a gun in cs:go, I now need a part of the painting to be pixel perfect, but I can't seem to find a way of stopping the automatic smoothing whenever I merge the pixel art with an 3D object.
    Pre-Merge
    After Merge

    I only see the normal texture filtering. Seems like you have a fundamental misunderstanding here about how 3D works - "pixel perfect" has no meaning for 3D textures since UV space is parametric and has by itself in theory infinite resolution, so any texture will be fit into this range and inevitably a single pixel in the texture can cover more than a pixel on screen or more than a square milimeter on a 3D object. If you want "sharp" textures, you increase the texture resolution, which, if you realyl want that pixely look would be doen using the nearest neighbor method. Regardless, once you zoom in at some point you will see fuzzy edges/ pixels again. It's in the nature of the thing.

  • Should I start with Entity Object or Java Class Diagram ??

    Hi,
    I come to J2EE / OO application development from non-oo programming world. I am still confused about what step-by-step development approach should I take ?
    Should I :
    - start with creating Entity Object from available database table ?
    - should I start with Java class diagram, followed by generating database tables, then create EO from it ?
    Could anybody please help me, what best practice step by step development approach should I take ?
    Is there any white paper / docs about this ?
    Thank you for your help,
    Krist

    Krist,
    If you are not from the OO world then you may be interested in this new site on OTN (http://otn.oracle.com/formsdesignerj2ee) There is a workshop that starts by looking at an existing datamodel and builds up from there.
    If you are starting from nothing, you can indeed start higher at the Class Model level.
    I recently started discussing data modeling on my blog (http://www.groundside.com/blog/content/SueHarper/) and there are some very good comments(feedback from readers) that may possibly be useful to you.
    If you are new to the UML modeling world, I recommend you read two very good papers by Jan Kettenis on OTN (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/collateral10g.html) They are Getting Strted with UML Class modeling and Getting Started with UML Use Case Modeling.
    Shay pointed you to Toplink. There are a lot of resources on OTN for Toplink, including tutorials.
    Personally? I think if you have time, and if you can, start with a Class Model and perhaps a Use Case model, then you can start planning your application development from a solid base.

  • I need a sample vi that can plot a transfer function given zeroes and poles (It should allow the user to input zeroes and poles). It should be done in the S domain.The user should be allowed to put poles and zeroes, with frequency

    I need a sample vi that can plot a transfer function given zeroes and poles (It should allow the user to input zeroes and poles). The user should be allowed to put poles and zeroes, with frequency. DONE IN S DOMAIN.

    I have created a VI (LabVIEW 6.1) that does what you want. Note that the poles and zeros have to be entered correctly that is in Rad/s and typically with negative real part. The VI offers you all options for lin/log frequency axis, magnitude in dB or not, phase in Radians or Degrees etc...
    The VI is written with "academic" in mind, so it is not optimized for performances but (hopefully) for clarity. I hope this will work for you.

  • More from Adam Taylor about Zynq and SDSoC: "Zynq is a device every embedded system designer should be familiar with"

    Adam Taylor publishes the MicroZed Chronicles weekly in the Xcell Daily blog so you are likely familiar with his writing. Adam has just published an article about SDSoC and Zynq titled “High-level synthesis comes of age with SDSoC” on the Embedded.com Web site. Here’s his motivation for writing this article:
    “…Zynq is a device every embedded system designer should be familiar with and considering for their application. At its heart the Zynq is not a FPGA with embedded processors -- like previous generations of FPGA with Power PCs -- but a true embedded processor with very flexible interfacing capabilities (DDR, CAN, UART, USB, Giga Bit Ethernet, SPI and I2C to name a few). What separates the Zynq from other embedded processors is the attached programmable logic, and with SDSoC embedded system developers can exploit this pretty simply…
    SDSoC takes the eclipse front end, Vivado HLS, Vivado and a lot of behind the scenes intelligence to create seamlessly the option to accelerate software functions in the attached programmable logic of the device.”
    What follows is a simple explanation of what SDSoC brings to the party from a design engineer’s perspective.

  • Save as SVG degrading the embedded raster images

    I would like to know if the following issue is a bug:
    I have a file that contains a background raster image (embedded JPEG) and few vector graphics objects drawn on top of it.
    After I save this file as pure SVG (no AI information, so I don't check the Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities check box ), I notice a slight degradation of the raster image (for instance, the image border pixels look like being interpolated with the white background). If I save this SVG as an AI file (and no compression), and repeat the Save as SVG, the image degrades even more. So, with each iteration AI -> pure SVG -> AI, the background embedded raster image (JPEG) looks worse and worse.
    I use AI CS3 13.0.2.
    Thanks,
    Matei

    Matei, temp,
    There is a wellknown issue of degrading JPEGs every time they are reinterpreted.
    Therefore, JPEGs should always be kept and used unaltered, if possible.
    And then there is the alignment issue:
    >(for instance, the image border pixels look like being interpolated with the white background).
    Have you made sure that the JPEGs are aligned with the pixels of the Artboard before saving?

  • Why a pdf document with embedded fonts can be copied but is not searchable in pdf reader

    I am writing a pdf files with embedded subset fonts. As required, I am including the ToUnicode and CIDSet objects. To test, I created a simple PDF with two Hebrew characters. I can select the two characters and copy to the clipboard, and paste it properly into another application such as Word. But I am not able to search for a word containing these two characters. Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) displays the message that the word was not found. So in essence, I have created a PDF document which can be copied properly, but is not searchable. Any idea what I might be missing when creating the document?
    Additional information: 1. The file in question is a minimal file with just two characters. I have tested with many such files in many different languages including English. None of the files are searchable. 2. Curiously, if I search for the letter 'e', Adobe reader highlights an incorrect word, even if the letter 'e' does not exists in the file. 3. Adobe acrobat is also not able to search within this file, however when I save the file to another disk file, the saved file now is searchable. I confirmed that the major objects such as the font-file, ToUnicode object, CID object, and the font description objects are the same in the saved file. However, one of the font object is brought up closer to the top of the file. 4. FoxIt is able to search these files properly.

    I figured the app might have that ability - considering you can add text, highlight, add a signature, annotate and draw - so my thought was why not delete a page, or rearrange for that matter?.. That should be an option, this way we don't have to export to one of the other apps to delete or rearrange..
    Thanks for the help, Bernd.
    BTW if anyone is looking - PDF Max can do all of the above and delete and rearrange. With PDF Splicer you can delete and rearrange as well, but it has no other features.
    And as for Steve Werner whose comment was deleted after it got to my inbox, it is much more than a Reader, as you can plainly see from the amount of tasks the Reader app can do above.

  • How to find out embedded raster image is Black&White or Color image?

    Is there any possibility to find out the embedded raster image is Black&White, Gray image (or) Color image in "illustrator cs3" without using color mode shown in "document info" pannel. Kindly advice me, the possibilities and solution. And also any scripts avilable for this?
    Thanks.

    Or you could select the embedded image, and open the Window>Document Info panel. Select Embedded Images from the fly out menu on the Document Info panel. This should give you the color mode and more info on the embedded file in question.

    These are the options provided by SAP keeping in mind Indian Scenario. Sometimes, vendor forget to send excise invoice copy with the material, in such case, you can select 'Only Part I'.
    Even if you have maintain vendor excise details & material excise details (By mistake) in J1ID, system will throw an error message, excise invoice value is zero. In such case, we can select option 'No excise entry'.
    Your requirement can't be fulfilled in standard way. Even if you go for any Z- developement, you will lose the option.

  • Changes to appearance of repeat swatch and gradient (both with transparency applied) when .ai saved in PDF 1.3 compatibility

    I need to send a complex vector print to a commercial printer who requires my .ai file to be saved as 1.3 PDF compatibility.  All the graphics display & print correctly bar two elements:
    1. A gradient with transparency applied
    2. A repeat pattern swatch with transparency applied
    Both of these elements are layered between a solid colour background and a complex array of vector art.
    The gradient displays as solid white when converted to 1.3 PDF.  The pattern swatch displays partly white, with some elements of the pattern repeat visible as a watermark.
    1. I have tried to rasterise these elements within the a@rt, and while they both display correctly while in .ai format, as soon as I convert to PDF the appearance changes as above.
    2. I have tried to apply the transparency to the paint buckets on the gradient slider instead of applying it to the shape with gradient fil
    3. I've fiddled with the Transparency Flattening presets, Document Raster Effect Settings, and everything I can think of in the 'Save as PDF' dialogue box
    4. I've tried to rasterise the full file with an even worse outcome (all colour information lost, appears only on grey scale with fewer elements visible)
    Could this have something to do with spot colours or overprint?  Any help would be most appeciated!
    I'm using:
    Illustrator CC 18.1.1 (doc colour set to CMYK)
    on a Macbook Pro OSX Yosemite Version 10.10.1
    Apple Preview Version 8.0 (859)

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks for taking an interest! I tried rebuilding my gradient as suggested to see whether it would make a difference, but was still having issues.  Tried to save every which way with the save as PDF options in 1.3 profile.  Finally went back into the file to unpack each layer and see what I could adjust to save the appearance.
    Found this fix in my swatches palette: for some reason the swatches I was working with had converted to "Book Colour", something I never use.  I changed the dropdown back to CMYK and changed the colours from spot to process, which fixed the file    Relief after hours of searching and late nights!
    Thanks again!
