Only 1/2 Screen Prints?

Hi there.
I'm using Illustrator 9 and Vista on PC.
I'm not a power Illustrator user. :-) But I'm using a template for a CD cover. It looks fine on screen. When I print, however, I'm only getting 1/2 of the page.
Here's a screen grab: http://www.webinfinity.biz/images/cover.gif
Can anyone offer a clue on what's going on? I don't see a print preview in Illustrator 9 with margins I can see.
Thx!
Rick

Just a couple of shots in the dark here;
If you go to View > Show Page Tiling what do you see? Does your image fit withing the dotted box?
Is your paper ortientation (portrait/landscape) the same in AI (File > Document Setup) as it is in your printer dialog?

TS3276 I have always been able to print hotmail messages. Recently I cannot. I only get a one page screen print. How do I reset to get only the hotmail message printed?

I am looking for help with printing hotmail messages. What do I need to reset to get the messages to print. Right now I am getting only a screen print. All other documents are printing fine. It is only mail that is a problem.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
I'm assuming you're actually opening Outlook (the recent 'downgrade' to Hotmail) in your Safari web browser, and selecting the Safari 'Print' command.
Instead, try the Print option from the far right "..." choice within the new Outlook/Hotmail menu layout as shown with the arrow.
This should provide a print-preview showing all pages of multiple page emails.

I have "ghost" events on my printed calendars repeating daily after the original event. How can I delete these as they only appear on the printed calendars and not on the on screen version?

I had a similar situation. My credit card bill shows a charge on Sept 8 and Sept 9, both for $55.99. I called Apple but they said that I was the victim of identity theft so I cancelled my credit card. They have not refunded my money.

How to do a Screen Print with Pro keyboard?

Hi everyone,
I have tried a multitude of button combination but I cannot figure out how to do a Screen Print in Windows XP...
I am using a Pro Keyboard from Apple which has black keys.
Can anyone help me please?
Rio.

Hi salmeryigit,
Thanks you for your response...Funny enogh...F14 was one key I had not tried and it worked!
Now I am wondering if there is a multiple Key combination that would permit me to Manually Crop only the Part on the Screen I that I need?
Ex: In OS X I use: Shift + Comand + 4 which works like a charm as it saves the pict file onto my desktop.
May I also ask you what document you consulted to get the first answer I asked?
I do appreciate your help.

Halftones and dpi for screen printing

I am creating a halftone effect on a black and white picture for screen printing, using photoshop. I know about where to place my LPI, however, Im not sure where I should put my DPI. If anyone can help with some advice, I would appreciate it. I was also curious if i should some how put it illustrator, and vectorize it, or just print transparencies straight from photoshop.
Thanks

There's no need to go to Illustrator with the photo. You can print from Photoshop using the 1-bit halftone. The thing that you have to keep in mind is not so much DPI ( which is an output resolution ), but the actual screen mesh used for the actual screen printing. You also have to figure "screen angles" into the matrix because the screen angles are affected by not only the grament material, but the screen mesh, too. So, I would recommend contacting the printer and finding out what screen frequency ( LPi / lines per inch ) will work best on the type of garment you are planning to print-on and ask the printer what mesh they plan to use for your job. I've seen 35 LPi halftones; I've also seen 65 LPi halftones. The finer the screen mesh, the higher the LPi. Tell the printer you have a 2-color job printing halftones and you need to know what LPi and what angles to use for color #1, and color #2. Then, you can input that information into the separation halftone files in Photoshop. Remember to discuss the garment type ( thread count ) and the mesh of the screen. If the printer is good and knows what they are doing, they will give you everything you need to know. If they do not, they'll refuse the job.

How I can work points to an image in Illustrator for Screen Printing?

Hello, (I use Macromedia Freehand MX), I just recently download the trial illustrator, and my question is to know how to open points in Illustrator images for screen printing in freehand using the Halftone in Illustrator I've tried but is not the same as the finish is different and of very poor quality here is a sample as freehand and illustrator as stated in:
Look at the difference of points:
As you can see in Illustrator can only do that from the menu: Effects / Pixelate / Color Halftone... and you can not make the points more guys, not sharp as seen in the picture above and therefore the image does not get to see very well, while in freehand if you can manipulate the points from large fine to a point, points also can be made round, linear or ellipse and therefore may work better for screenprints and other designs that open nesecitan points at home.
What I'm interested to know if there is another way to work so that the image is sharp with the open items as well as in freehand.
No more I say goodbye to waiting for an answer, thanks

I still do not achieve the required result in Freehand give me the points, as you may see in the picture above, I need is to manipulate fine points as well as this:
illustrator and only managed this:
illustrator and only managed this:
As you can see the difference is very remarkable, the two images are worked in the same size.
I switch to illustrator but if I can achieve that result does not help me much, since I work in screen printing and printing and need to play with points, after that I love the program has many more things freehand.
PS: the freehand halftone used to make color separation images to full color with spots open in Illustrator is not like that.

Halftone Screen Printing (Rosette)

Hey all,
I'm pretty new to prepress / prepping for screen printing, and I need some help.
After MAJOR searching and downloading trials of plugins, I'm stuck in finding out how to get a CMYK separation with halftone dots for printing. We are printing on a clear plastic film, and I was asked to convert a design into a 4-color (CMYK) Rosette screen for the screen printer.
I have tried using photoshop's inbuilt Bitmap to Halftone Screen feature (separating the CMYK channels, then using Image > Mode > Bitmap), but after doing all 4 channels then laying them, I don't get a rosette pattern at all. I have tried using different angles for each separation after googling it and using what was recommended, but with no luck.
All I'm looking to do is separate the CMYK, create the halftone dots, and then export each color into a seperate PDF.
Is Photoshop the answer for this?
All the plugins I've tried trials of only seem to "print" to particular Epson printers, but that's not what I'm after. I just need them exported to a PDF.
Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else ran into this problem using Photoshop's Bitmap settings?
We are using Photoshop CS6.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

For the last few years, outputting a halftone screen has become increasingly more difficult than in the past. For instance, in 1995 I was able to output direct via a hardware Postscript Level 2 RIP in my desktop inkjet printer in Illustrator, Photoshop, Pagemaker...you name it. Then, Postscript Level 3 was released as third party software RIPs and, not sure when, the ability to output screens was eliminated unless you had a film processor. Recently, if I'm not mistaken, Adobe discontinued 1-bit halftone screens via Photoshop. This is troubling when you consider where we were in '95 vs. where we are today. Outputting a halftone screen now requires a fairly expensive RIP mated to a fairly expensive printer. I've read where you could ouput to a Postscipt file either out of Illustrator or Photoshop or wherever. You set the screen parameters when you create the Postscipt file ( Print > Postscript File ) and then open it in Acrobat and print from there. Silly endless additional steps in a procedure that could be done in one. If you can, see if you can downgrade to Photoshop CS 5 or whatever version can produce screens. Or, send the file out to a service provider that can ( still ) output to film. This is how I understand the current situation. If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will pipe-in.

I am using ibook G4 PPC with mac os x10.4.11. A day before I delete one file from my hard disk by mistake and after that when I restarted my notebook, it's not starting the os. Only that blue screen is there. please, show me how to deal with it.

I am using an old ibook G4 ppc with mac os x 10.4.11. A day before by default I delete one file and I think it was the startup file of os because after that when I restarted my notebook it's not running the OS only that blue screen is there. This notebook was a gift for me and still it is so close to my heart. I don't wana loose it. Please, help me out.

Without the install CD, you are hosed.
What happened to it?
It is possible to call AppleCare and order a replacement. They will charge you a nominal fee for shipping and handling.

I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

Hi Crushed,
Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

I wish to put my photo albums in alphabetical order. Advice was to right click on pane at left. I do not have a left pane on my i-pad and only have touch screen,what do I "right click" with and how do I get a "left pane" in my Photos folder?

I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order. The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane. I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this? Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you

I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

How to Screen Print from Windows 7 in Bootcamp Without "Fn" Key ?

Dear Friends,
For GIS software, I have Windows 7 on my Imac 7, which uses Mac OS X 10.6.8. All of the information which I have found on the Internet about doing a screen print for Windows 7 in Bootcamp on this operating system state that 1. pressing Fn + F11 prints the screen and 2. Option+Fn+F11 prints the active window. Unfortunately, the two Mac keyboards, which I have, do not have a "Fn" key.
Is there anyway to do a screen print without a "fn" key on a person's keyboard? If so, how does a person do it?
Any answers that can be provided for the above questions will be greatly appreciated.

You should ask Windows questions in the Windows forums. But here is an answer: In Windows using these keystrokes, Start > All Programs > Snipping tool.

My mac pro crashed. Apple genius people said to reinstall snow leopard. I did and it failed to start after i installed. I started with the power button, tried to install upgrades, and now I get only a grey screen with spining wheel.

How can I restart a mac pro that shows only a grey screen with a spinning wheel. I reinstalled snow leopard (10.6.3) over 10.6.8 because apple genious people said I had problems with my library files after a time capsule crash. I reinstalled but when done I got only a blue screen. I restarted with the power button and tried to insall 10.6 combined upgrades. I got an error message that it could not install because of an error. When I powered down and tried to restart, I get only a grey screen. My optical drive does not open so I can't restart from another source.

Restart, holding down the mouse button. That should eject the disc. Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC. Then, pop in the install disc, restart with it in again, select your language, and, when the menu bar pops up, select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. select the boot volume and repair the disk.

HT3669 I only have a HP printer and why I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers 590MB??? if normally the size of my file should be 5MB. some one could me help to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???

Hi guys..!!
I would like to know if someone could help on this:
I just have a HP printer (HP Designjet 100) and for some reason I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers in total 590MB to be able to use my printer in my mountain lion???
If normally the size of my files in the for previous software was more or less 5MB why now i need to install 590?
Some one could help me how to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???
Thanks

If you go to http://support.apple.com/downloads and locate the HP Printer Drivers installer, you will find that it is 473.4 MB (for version 2.11). If you install this, it will install the full set of drivers for every model of HP printer that is supported by the drivers distributed through Apple. The disk space occupied once installed will probably be larger than the download, since the downloaded file is compressed.
On the other hand, if you have an HP printer connected and you use Software Update (or the Update tab in App Store), that should offer you a much smaller set of HP drivers, which are only applicable to your printer (and possibly a few similar ones). These updates are typically only tens of megabytes rather than hundreds of megabytes.
If Software Update doesn't offer you any HP drivers then it either thinks you have the latest drivers installed already, or the printer model is not supported by the drivers available from Apple.
This article lists all of the printer models for which Apple distributes the driver:

I have Firefox 19 and the screens are narrow. How can I get full width screens, like I get in IE? Full Screen command only makes my screens taller, not wider.

I just got a new Dell Optiplex computer with Windows 7. I installed Firefox 19 on it. The web pages come up narrow, with borders on each side. So the content of the screen is smaller than what I've gotten in the past with Firefox 3.6 on my previous computer. I did the Full Screen command, and that only made the screen taller rather than giving me a full screen (such as I get with the same web pages in Internet Explorer). I've also tried enlarging the text, but that throws off the format of the web page so some parts of it overlap.
What can I do to get a full screen, including full width?
There is a box below this Details box called "Troubleshooting Information" which says I should click Allow and then click Install. Since I don't know what would be installed on my computer, I did not do it.

The Troubleshooting Information extension adds some useful information to your post, but in this case, I don't think it's really needed.
Zoom is your best bet. To make it work for you, I have two suggestions.
(1) Switch from "text only" zoom to "full page" zoom. This is proportional like in IE.
View menu > Zoom > ''uncheck'' Zoom Text Only
If you are using the compact menus with the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key to display the full classic menu bar.
(2) Install an extension that can default your view to a higher zoom level automatically to save time when visiting new sites. Here are two candidates:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint]
With that combination, can you minimize your eyestrain? :-)

How can I get an image from the screen? Like screen printer in PC to pasting after in word or other program.

If you do Cmd+Shift+3 you'll get a full screen image saved to your desktop as a jpg file.
Also, you can use Cmd+Shift+4 and you'll get a cursor which you click+drag to draw a box. When you release the drag the boxed in area will be saved to the Desktop as a jpg file.
