Opening an .eps in Photoshop - strange white areas around image?

Hi all,
I created a vector image in Illustrator, saved it as an .eps, and then opened it in Photoshop. It has a strange white background, any idea why it's there and how I can get rid of it?
Here a screenshot:

Just had to save is as a .psd in illustrator and was able to open it with proper transparency in photoshop.

  • DW8-Fine white line around images

    DW8 - On some of my images there is a very fine white line
    around the edge when the site is previewed in the browser. The site
    has an almost-black background color (181714), and I use the same
    color in making the image backgrounds (in Photoshop CS), for
    example roll-over images. How do I get rid of this?

    You wouldn't set this in the Property inspector, you'd set it
    in the CSS,
    and the only time you need it would be when the image is
    within a link:
    a img { border:none; }
    Also, you wouldn't expect this effect to produce a white
    border - it would
    be a blue one (by default).
    I'm guessing the fine white line is part of the image (it's
    easy to
    undercrop when the canvas is white).

    If you have nothing there, you will get the default value for
    the all of the
    table attributes, which is often (but not always) not zero.

  • How do I get rid of faint white boxes around images?

    Some files that I have printed have faint white boxes around images.  The images were saved in photoshop with transparent backgrounds that seem to be showing up faintly in the final printed image.  Does anyone know how I can get rid of this problem?

    signspec,
    What happens if you print from Illy?
    Your printer (driver) may be overly helpful and performs a bit of colour management all by itself. You may have a look and disable any such management in the printer (driver) options.

  • Help!!  White line around image with placed in Illustrator from Photoshop, possible CMYK issue?

    I have a CMYK file, outlined product, that looks perfect in Photoshop.  When I place the image into Illustrator, it shows up with a thin white line around parts of the product (fyi - it shows up on a print as well). I have tried to place an RGB file and it does not have the white line around the product.    I assume it has something to do with it being CMYK, but I'm at a loss on how to fix this.  I'm desperate for any help.

    Okay, please refer this image and change the option within Ai General preferences. Uncheck the option Anti-Aliased artwork.

  • White outline around images in pdf

    Ok I've searched google for help and have not found any tips. I'm using CS4. I'm creating a document in indesign. I've placed some psd files into the document. In photoshop they are an object with a transparent background.
    Now they look fine when printing and when viewing in indesign. But when i output as a ps from indesign, then take it into distiller it creates a pdf with a white outline around the image. Why is this happening? See attachement. Outline is on the bottom, it's a really thin line.
    I do file print, select adobe pdf 8.0 then i pick the postscript option, then hit print to save the pdf. I've tried changing from CMYK to leave unchanged for color options. Please help!!!

    Try searching for the term stitching. That should give you plenty.
    In short, what you're seeing is the result of your archaic workflow causing the transparency to be flattened. The preferred and recommended method for PDF creation is through direct export, maintaining all transparency in the document.

  • Hairline white line around images in PDF for press

    CS3, Windows XP
    I searched the forum and didn't find this exact question, so..., I place PSD file in ID. When I export to PDF for the press run, I get a thin hairline white box around the photo. It only seems to happen when the placed image is over a gradient. It also only happens on PDF files for press run - either Press Quality or PDF/X-1a:2001. When I export to "Smallest File Size" it looks fine. I have the border of the image set to 0 and the color to None.
    And it only seems to happen sometimes. A month or so ago I created a similar piece using different photos, but the same gradient background and it looked and printed fine.
    Thoughts?
    JAG

    The stitching and a grey box was showing up on my press proofs. The printer suggested that I flatten the image before I send it to them.
    Sometimes I see in on screen and sometimes I don't, but my printer says they see it every time and that it will show up on the proof. I've been trying several different PDF exporting options in ID. We are getting the proofs done correctly, but there's only one guy at my printer that can get the file corrected. I'm not sure exactly what he is doing, but one of the people I deal with suggested that he was opening the file in PS, flattening it again, and exporting to PDF, again.
    He's the boss and not alway around, so I'm trying to figure out how I can get file exported correctly.
    Thanks for your help.

  • White boxes around images

    Hi, I know this is a basic question but it's causing me a lot
    of grief.
    When I place images on coloured backgrounds, they have white
    boxes
    around them. Is the only way to get around this to manipulate
    the
    image itself in photoshop? I've tried this but it still
    doesn't look
    right - there are jagged edges. Or I've tried giving the
    image the
    same colour background in photoshop so it blends, but there
    is a white
    edge. How do others handle this? Some expert advice would
    really be
    great to have.

    If you are seeing white borders against colored backgrounds,
    then this means
    that the white is part of the image. There would be no way to
    remove that
    short of editing the image in your image editing program.

  • White line around image

    Hi everyone,
    I keep getting a white line appear around images I save in
    Photoshop and then insert into Dreamweaver. It happens when I also
    save text with a transparent background. The text has a very faint
    white line around it. Why is this?

    Where are you seeing this, in PS? or DW design view or in a
    browser?
    When you insert your pics in an HTML page with 0 border, do
    you still see
    the border?

  • White box around image in my transparent .swf file

    I created a .swf file for a header of a website using a logo that tweens in.  I tested the .swf with the transparent properties and it works but the logo I imported from photoshop has a white box around it, how can I remove this?  Do I need to import a transparent .png file instead of a .jpg?
    Thanks!

    .png's are lossless vector graphics, so it's probably best bet if your going to do other things with the logo. .jpg's are not fond of resizing. You can also break the image apart and use the lasso tool and magic wand the background away.

  • Can't get rid of white border around image

    http://www.gunnar.ca/laminatepage2.htm
    I created a rounded corner in photoshop for my table. I
    created a cell in the bottom left corner of the table and placed
    the gif. There is a thin whit border around the outer edge of the
    gif, so it doesn't look genuinely rounded. Can anyone tell me how
    to get rid of that so it looks like the table is actually rounded?
    Thank you!

    Because the table containing the GIF has a border. In your
    styleA.css
    stylesheet, the rule:
    .border {
    border: 1px solid #E5E5E5;
    adds a border to the table. Delete the rule. Of course - that
    may affect
    other things that use the .border class. Or - delete the
    class from the
    table tag.
    Several problems with the page:
    styles.css cannot be found
    sideNavStyles.css cannot be found

  • White border around images in Easy Rotator

    I would like for there to be a small white border around my images when i put them into easy rotator.  I really just want there to be about a 5 px space around them that is really just the background.  I cant seem to find the right place in the code to make the div that holds the background color... which is white...to make it have like a 5 px padding..
    or even make a 5 px margin around all images.
    I even tried to place the border around my images when placing them in the rotator but the top still pushed all the way up and there was only the white space on the left right and obviously the bottom where the dots are that shows which number slide I am on.
    Where in the code will I find this so I can manipulate it... thanks again for always helping

    Without a link, it's all guesswork. 
    Use Chrome or Firefox to preview your page.  Right Click and select Inspect Elements.  This should give you some idea of which CSS selectors are used by Easy Rotator.

  • Problem with white border around images

    Hey guys,
    I'm new to the creative suite and have just finished running through all of the video tutorials, etc. I'm having a small problem which can be seen in the sample site I'm fooling around with here:
    http://www.andrewedunn.com/gsd/
    I'd like to get rid of the small white border around the "GS" logo. It is an illustrator document.
    Basically I put the letters in place, converted them to paths (so I can resize it) and dropped it in my GoLive document as a smart object.
    A google such suggested rasterizing, but I couldn't get it to work after fooling with it a little bit.
    Further, if I wanted to add a drop shadow to it, how can I do it so that it is transparent on top of the background images in golive? The one time I tried it, the drop shadow was placed on top of a white background.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    Are your background images always going to be displayed left-aligned on a black background and always the same size, so that the left half of the logo will always be over the photo and the right half will always be over the black? Or will the size or placement of the photos vary?
    Are all of the photographs in approximately the same moderate tonal range, or will some be bright and some dark?
    If the background will be consistently as you show it, you should be able to anti-alias your logo against a medium gray on the left and black on the right for acceptable results. If the background is more varied, you are not going to get good results with either GIF or JPG format.
    See this related thread:
    http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc38b6e/3
    > Further, if I wanted to add a drop shadow to it, how can I do it so that it is transparent on top of the background images in golive?
    Only by exporting as a transparent PNG, but then older browers won't display it properly.
    If you are really needing to have a logo that casts transparent drop shadows on top of a wide variety of images, you might consider going the Flash route, even though you aren't planning animation. Flash has very good transparency handling, and there are Flash player plugins that are compatible with browsers that won't display PNG images.

  • White space around image when doing Save for Web

    Say I draw a simple square in Illustrator CS6 then export it to a PNG using Save for Web. The preview shows 1px thick of white space on the right side. Sometimes it's on 2 sides or more.
    No other hidden elements are around the image. Clip to artboard in not clicked.
    Why does this happen and how do we get rid of it?

    For once I get to answer a post and say somehting good about align to pixel grid.
    Turn it on
    Your image will now align to the pixel grid
    Turn it off when not doing web work, or will drive you mad.

  • White dissolve around images

    Ok so i'm doing a favour for a friend and the work he's sent me to photoshop has already been done poorly by a professional and i've had to redo most of it.
    The problem is that he wants the images to dissolve into the background and the person who has done is has saved them as JPEGS instead of PNG files meaning that instead of being able to dissolve into the background it dissolves into white within the image (the background isn't white!)
    I've never come across this before and he hasn't got the original files. Does anyone know how to get rid of the white so it will dissolve into nothing or change the white into the colour i need?
    Thanks

    We'd really need to see the whole process, i.e. source and target images, to comment properly.  As it is, I'm thinking you' either have to loose some of the jpg edge with a feather, or if the target image is suitable, use a blend mode like Darken or Multiply so the white doesn't show.  As always, you might need to fine tune with a layer mask, but show us the images and we could say for sure.
