PDF import images issue

My question is, I am importing a 23-page PDF with 26 images
in it. After importing into RH7, the image files are created, but
most are just gray rectangles with white dotted lines around them.
Did I import incorrctly? Is this a known bug?
Thank you.

I guess he has Windows but tried to open the file from his ipad too.

PS CS5 importing images issue!

Hi folks,
i got a problem with ps cs5.
I opened an 300 DPI A5 document and started to design it out.
After some time i wanted to import some of my .png files into the composition.
But then it happend, Photoshop boosted the size up of my image... its an 72DPI PNG and the old
PS CS4 used to resize it correctly and I just could start to work with the original size of that image.
for now I am very unhappy about this issue because I have to resize all those images again by hand.
That means I lose quality and it takes a lot of time.
Would be great if someone could tell me if I can workaround that problem somehow.
thank you!

I can only imagine that Adobe got feature suggestions from people claiming that when they placed their different images together they would rather have automatic resizing per the ppi value, and not hearing praise from people like you just expecting a pixel to remain a pixel, they changed it without an option to keep it the old way. I had high hopes that that checkbox in preferences would get you the older functionality back, but alas it isn't so.
What is that [ ] Resize Image During Place checkbox supposed to do anyway, if not this? A quick glance Help doesn't turn up much on this setting. Maybe it's buried in there somewhere, but it's not popping out.
I even tried placing images using all the combinations of modifyer keys I could think of. That would have been a nice touch, but nope, it didn't work.
A while back I started a thread in which I ended up actually catching some flak for asking that every change in user functionality be accompanied by a setting that allowed users to have things the old way if they desired. This kind of situation is exactly what I had in mind, but people apparently have trouble thinking at this level.

PDF Import/Export Issue.

Just know, I installed the LiveCycle ES4 and tried to add the import/export feature on my PDF form. Everything was fine, there wasn't any error message. But when I opened the PDF, it showed me:
"This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
Anyone can help me to figure out this issue?

Sounds like a bunch of issues, not just one issue.
For slow import from flash cards, check the hardware (is the card reader failing? or USB connection failing?)
Computer crashes are often memory problems, or video driver problems.

Image Capture: permissions issue on imported images...

Hello.
I've noticed that, when using Image Capture to import images from an iPhone, the resulting images that are imported are assigned the following permissions:
Owner (me) = Read & Write
Everyone Else = No Access
This causes an issue later in one of my worflows because a user other than myself is trying to access these images and can't (because they don't have permission). For example, I have a folder that I copy certain images to that I want displayed on my Apple TV (via iTunes). But, because of the "Everyone Else = No Access" permissions, the Apple TV is unable to displaying these images. Images from other sources (for example, copy from a point & shoot camera's SD card using Finder) have the correct permissions, so when copied to the images folder the Apple TV accesses, the Apple TV has no issues displaying these images.
I've tested this on two separate Macs running Mountain Lion (both running 10.2.8) and the same thing happens on both machines.
Anyone have any suggestions on fixing this on the Image Capture level? Currently, I've writen a script that fixes the permissions on import, but that's not a permanent fix.
Thanks,
Kristin.

I noticed after upgrading to Snow Leopard that images imported with Image Capture have "No Access" for Everyone. I used Image Capture a lot under Leopard and Everyone had "Read Only" or "Read & Write" permissions. Before and after the upgrade, I stored the images folders I created (with Image Capture) in a Shared/Pictures folder.
I couldn't find any answers on why the permissions are set this way by Image Capture with Snow Leopard. I found this article http://www.ehow.com/how_2314896_fix-permissions-mac-os-x.html which at least helped me change the permissions of all images in a given folder.
Seems one should not have to change the permissions after importing images....

I own Lightroom 4 and have updated the software however, I am unable to import images taken on the Sony A6000. I have also updated the raw converter and am still having this issue.

You can either upgrade to Lightroom 5.4 or later, or use the free Adobe DNG Converter version 8.6 to convert your RAW photos to DNG, which then will import into Lightroom 4.

NeverCompressed list vs. CM issues on pdf or images

Symptom:
*.pdf & images causing errors on e.g. opening in CM, esp. on J2EE versions below SPS15. This might happen occasionally or always.
Technical cause:
Compression by J2EE
In J2EE default delivery 'image' & *.pdf is always on NeverCompressed key list.
Why compression might have been enabled again ?
Wrong instructions are given for compressing pdf and images in several guides:
1) http://service.sap.com/nw-howtoguides -> Portal, KM and Collaboration -> All -> How To Optimize Network Traffic in EP6.0, in Section "3.3.1 Configuring SAP Web Application Server (JAVA) Compression and Caching"
2) http://service.sap.com/nw-howtoguides -> Portal, KM and Collaboration -> Portal -> How to Fine Tune Performance of Portal Platform, in Section "3.3.1 Configuring SAP Web Application Server (JAVA) Compression and Caching"
"NeverCompressed
To enable script files compression, delete the following content types from the list: *.css, *.pdf, *.js, image, application/pdf"
Check if this recommandation was followed.
Compression doesn't make sense here roughly as compressing .gif or .jpg / .pdf does not bring any benefit of smaller content to be transfered, no beneficial ratio and is causing errors, esp. on J2EE versions below SPS15.
Solution:
- add image and *.pdf again to NeverCompressed key anyway.
- Alternatively exclude e.g. gif via Mime key value {.gif,image/gif} if other relevant images types where compression does make sense are in use.
The problematic HowTo guides will be corrected.

and sorry for the shoddy typing.... ipad/bed/typing dont mix very well

Bridge CS4 won't output to pdf multiple images with same filename

Hiya...my googling efforts have thus far failed!
I've got CS4, and in Bridge, I created a New Smart Collection to find all filenames in a folder containing "." or ".jpg" - which in turn searched through all the subfolders like what you used to be able to do in Photoshop CS3. Very simple stuff, but all the images are jpg's, but in multiple folders (I don't want to move them out of the folders, as the files came from an external source, and there are heaps of folders, and I don't want to pdf each subfolder seperately as it will take forever).
The problem is that some of the files have the same filenames (again I'd prefer not to rename, as it happens a lot on this project, and they are all over the place). So whilst Bridge will show the thumbnail images correctly in the content tabbed screen in my New Smart Collection, but once I've done the Output to PDF thing, for example, instead of showing both different images it has pdf only the first image but repeated it twice. And this happens multiple times throughout the pdf, the more times the same filename is used, the more times the first image gets repeated.
I know that it is messy to have multiple similar filenames, but why can't bridge just place the image anyway? It allocated a space for it on the pdf and does show it in bridge, it just doesn't seem to survive the transfer to pdf well.
The only other thing that I have done is use the below link (which was posted on another adobe forum thread) to create a custom pdf output template (nothing too fancy, just number of rows / columns, size, font etc). But I've tried using the standard bridge templates and it does the same thing.
http://www.proficiografik.com/2009/08/03/save-custom-pdf-output-template-in-adobe-bridge-c s4.html
Any help would be appreciated...even if to tell me that I am being unreasonable!
UPDATE 16/11/09
Just to let you know that I seem to have resolved the bug inadvertently with one of the Adobe updates. The below is the link for the AdobeOutputModule-2.1-mul-AdobeUpdate.zip which was released on 2/19/2009 - which allows for headers & footers to be placed in the Ouput pdf. I finally installed it today, and everything seems to be working fine now (i.e. I can pdf multiple images with the same filenames and the pdf will actually show each different image rather than repeating only 1 of the images).
Must have been a fix installed in the contact sheet templates that get installed with the update - not sure why the original version was corrupted, but I've left that with the Adobe guys (I submitted a bug report - and they were able to replicate the problem but hadn't fixed it as yet).

When I click import from disc I am asked to choose a disc and then I get this message:
The following photos will not be imported because they are already present in the catalog. To see these photos in the catalog select 'Show in Library' (the import will be canceled).
This is followed by a long list of images. If I click 'Show in Library' I can see all the images with the same filename. And then they start to automatically write over those images with images from the disc. However they keep the same metadata and keywords from the previous images. If I click on Import and deselect the "don't reimport suspected duplicates" box, it imports only the images that don't share filenames and none of the images that do.
Is there a way of setting the "Don't reimport suspected duplicates" box in preferences?

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Importing images with Lightroom 2 & Camera RAW 4.5

The following query has been raised with Adobe Technical Support (5 days ago and I am still waiting for a response/reply. They claim to reply within 24 hours but they have not on this occasion......they seem to be ignoring me
Perhaps a fellow user can help to identify or resolve the problem.
Operating System:
Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 3)
Software:
Adobe Design Premium CS3 (10.0.1); Photoshop Lightroom 1.4 (which was working fine) and Lightroom 2 (on trial and not working particularly well)
I am using a trial download of Photoshop Lightroom 2 (with Camera RAW 4.5 in Photoshop CS3).
I am having a few problems with editing Lightroom 2 images in Photoshop CS3 but I understand that Adobe is currently investigating a solution to this problem.
I have also noticed another potential problem since I have started to import images from a computer drive to Lightroom 2 and converting the Manufacturers RAW files to DNG (with the option to leave the files at their current location/drive).
My RAW and JPEG files open ok in Camera RAW (v 4.5) for basic editing and subsequently to Photoshop for more detailed work. The problem is that all my images are now opening as Smart Objects by default in Photoshop CS3, as opposed to opening as a Background layer". (I have not knowingly opted to use the Open as Smart Object option.
I am not entirely sure how this came about but I have also lost the capacity to edit images with empty Levels adjustment layers or percentage (%) grey fill option).
I am able to highlight the respective layer and create the empty Levels adjustment layer, change the blend mode to either Multiply or Screen, fill the Layer Mask with Black (Alt & backspace), change the opacity level as desired, select the brush tool and change the foreground colour to white to enable the applicable Dodge or Burn processes.
Unfortunately, it does not function irrespective of the preferred opacity level. The Dodge or Burn feature is static with no effect on the image.
I cannot recall any settings to open all files as Smart Objects in Photoshop CS3 but would welcome some help in identifying such a setting if it exists. Alternatively, I would welcome any other suggested methods of correcting the above difficulties.
The same difficulties are evident when I try to use the Dodge or Burn features via the Edit and Fill option with a percentage of Grey and the Overlay Blend Mode.
The "Common Denominator" of the above difficulties appear to be Lightroom 2 and Camera RAW 4.5 (individually and or collectively) and now I am stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Are any other users experiencing similar issues or have any suggestions about how I might correct or resolve these problems? ......
I am not afraid of hearing or accepting that the "Dummy Factor" has played some part or how I may release myself from the said "Dummy Factor".....any help is welcome help.
Adobe Technical Support seems to be ignoring me......I wonder why?
Regards
Bob Wallace

Essentially you are wrapping the raw image data into a special type of layer, a "smart object". You can then revisit and fine tune the Camera Raw conversion as often as you want and take advantage of working directly on the raw data in its pre-Photoshop purity. You can also apply to this smart object layer a number of Photoshop adjustments and filters - and again redo and fine tune them as often as you wish.
You'll find them explained in a number of recent books. I know Scott Kelby is keen on them, there are examples on Russell Brown's site, and my own book last year on B&W strongly advocated their use.
Have a play.

3D pdf - Poor image resolution (see attached jpg)

I create 3D pdf's from MicroStation on a regular basis to deliver to clients,and I have never had a problem with it until using the latest version of Reader. When I open a 3D pdf on my workstation (using Adobe Reader 9.1), it looks fine; when my client opens it, it looks like blotches of color with little definition. I experience the same problem on my personal laptop, but like I said, on my office pc it works fine. I attached a screen capture here....does anyone know how I can resolve this?
Thanks!

I have been searching for days now. I am a highly technical Graphic Designer with experience in print production and in-depth knowledge of Adobe products and MS Office products. I have been unable to solve this issue in my own files for all the settings and file/software adjustments. I have exhausted my energies trying to solve the issue.
Could someone from Adobe please step up and address this? I have searched your forums and support files as well as Microsoft's and the internet in general to no avail. It seems to be an issue with the way MS's layouts and images are interpreted by Distiller even when settings are adjusted for success.
This issue occurs when using the "PDFMaker" and when using printing to the PDF PS printer.
The same PNG I have inserted in a PPT file writes to PDF with no issues but when printed defaults to ignoring the alpha channel. The same exact PDF setting I am using in PPT are used in Word, as well as the same exact PNG but the PDF results are different.
I am at my wit's end and have opted to alter my design to avoid the transparency but I would still appreciate the topic being covered by an Adobe professional.

PDF icon images appear on desktop, but not in folders?

I just updated to Windows 7. Before the update I could only view pdf icons on the desktop and inside folders would be a screenshot pdf icon image of the file. This was very helpful when using a lot of pdf files.
NOW, after installing Windows 7, I have the exact opposite. I can see PDF image icons on my desktop, but when I go into a folder, I get the standard Adobe pdf red-white icon (no image).
Has anyone experienced this? Ive googled this and Im not the only one with this problem. Has anyone found a fix for this?
Thanks
Update: I forgot to add that PowerPoint files, jpegs and bmp files still work and you can still see the preview images. Just not PDFs.

What happens if you open an older PDF in Acrobat and do a "save as"? Does the icon come back?
graffiti - thanks for the reply. I did as you suggested but it didnt work. Now some icons are showing up but I dont know why nor do I know if this is a adobe issue or a windows 7 issues. While googling it looks like each side is blaming the other. Here is a screen shot. Some icons appear and one does not. I opened it and re-saved it but still doesnt show a thumbnail.

Iphoto unable to import images from card or from desktop

A recent update to the operating system for my imac with Maverick has rendered my iphoto incapable of importing images, creates a mirror shift of the frontpage as it is opened up and requires a long time for iphoto to open. When I try to import a photo from the desktop or from a card the program spins into dysfunction and I am forced to force quit. Program functionality seems to be impaired as I look for images, select, etc. Permissions verified and fixed in Utility disk. Restart computer several times.....I would be grateful for assistance. Kind regards to the community.....HP

Well that suggests the issue is with the main Library. So
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?

When importing images into LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a wide yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images onto my desktop LR and there isn't the streak of colour. Can someone help?
This is happening even with photos that were taken on another camera, not just mine. My daughter told me that the laptop recently fell. The yellow streak is not anywhere else on the laptop, just on the photos in LR.

I have had this problem on my desktop. I have been attempting to reproduce it where it can be debugged. Here are some observations/facts in my environment--no conclusions:
1. I do not import from camera or memory stick directly into LR. I copy all images (using Explorer) from camera to two different locations (backup location first); and then my working area. In both cases, after files are copied I mark them Read-only.
2. Poor observation, but in any event: the issue has only occurred when I do a large number of images. Its a poor observation as I have no exact number. I suspect when I do less than 50 always works well every time. However, I have also done some very large imports without issue.
3. Error only occurs with my RAW images--for me that's NEF. I have multiple cameras--those that only capture jpg images have never had an issue in LR.
4. Even if the file is marked Read Only issues can still occur. I then remove the image from the disk using LR -- and then manually (Explorer) copy in my backup image -- re import again and all is well. I think one time I exited LR and replaced the bad file with a backup and restarted LR and all was well again.
5. When it occurs I have performed a HASH value on the broken file and on the backed up file to determine if the file contents has changed--and each time the file contents has changed.
6. I have had this occur immediately after import, but most often it occurs like this... import large number of images; Make changes in Development Module on random image, export jpg of changes--exit LR. Open up LR and file is corrupted.
7. I have had this issue on multiple USB drives ( okay just 2 different drives have been tested ).
What next--fire up Process Monitor and monitor the system (specifically LR) to see if it reports any file open for write access when this occurs. So, far I have not had process monitor actually running when it occurs--one of these days.

Unable to import images to iMovie, or copy and paste images.

As the title states, I am unable to import images from either iPhoto, the iMovie photo selector, or finder. Furthermore I cannot copy the rest of my timelapse from a second project into the origional, it just pastes one image in a different size and quality many times over. I was able to make a time lapse not more than five days ago before the update, so what gives? I am very frustrated. Everything is slow, it eats up all of my ram, and will freeze when I attempt to import images. I have all the updates, new retina pro, reinstalled iMovie; all the basic steps.. These are all images from a GoPro camera, and the first timelapse used all of the same files, I know it isn't a .jpeg problem or anything like that. So far it seems like a complete software failure and it is beyond my hands now but I would greatly appreciate some input.
Thanks.
Jake.

So if you select a protion of a clip, it gets outlined in yellow, and then when you mouse over it the cursor should be a little hand icon.
If you're not seeing that, you've got a problem.
Do you have another user account on your computer so you can try to see if you have the same issues? Maybe even create a new one for testing purposes.
Are you near an Apple Store you could drop by?
I'm not sure what else to suggest.
