Placed TIFFs or JPEGs: Is there a High Quality Display setting?

Does Illustrator CS5 have a setting like InDesign does where you can specify to make a placed TIFF or JPEG display in a high quality mode?
Thanks-

M,

  • Switching to Win 7 kills High Quality Display Performance option?

    I recently switched from Windows XP to Windows 7.
    I am running CS2. The files I work with contain placed PDF pages in InDesign. I have verified all links are good.
    The placed PDF pages contain some pages that are scans, and some containing live text.
    I have the default settings for InDesign set to High Quality Display, and also verified with the contextual menu that it is on currently for the document.
    Printing is fine, and export quality is fine. (Yep I restarted, an really familiar with this setting, and switched them all around while trying several times, I even cleared the object level display settings.)
    When I was on XP I got a nice crisp preview, now there is no difference between "Typical Display" and "High Quality Display", not even a flicker as I switch settings. It definitely changes if I select "fast Display" to they gray boxes.
    All my text from the placed pages, even the live text, is really jagged, even if you zoom in.
    My graphics driver is up to date, I tried eliminating my page file, and also making it bigger. It is currently system managed at about 8000 MB.
    I am on an HP Pro 3130, 2.93GHz, with 8 gigs of ram, and an ATI Radeon HD 4550 video card. I have the same monitors as before, an HP L1906 (dual, identical monitors) set at recommended resolution. I have tried it a 60 Hertz and at 75.
    Old files that looked fine before and also new files all share this issue.
    I am not sure what else to try.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    CS2 is completely unsupported under Windows 7.
    Additionally with 8 gigs of RAM I imagine (hope) that you're using the 64 bit versions. This is another fly in the ointment.
    Sorry, but it's time to upgrade to CS5. And this is pretty much your last chance at upgrade pricing. CS2 is the earliest version eligible.
    I suggest you take advantage of it now before you have to pay full price.
    If you have the suite you must upgrade the entire suite. The best deal I know of is on Amazon where you can save $30 and get free shipping: http://amzn.to/byP8go
    If you have the stand alone version the upgrade is just about the same price everywhere. $199. Just make sure you by from an authorized retailer.

  • Changing it from 'Typical Display' to 'High Quality Display.'

    To see this logo that is in Vector Image, I change it from 'Typical Display' to 'High Quality Display.'
    As you see this JPEG image, There's no change.
    What should I do?

    That looks as if it's just a really low quality image (like it was pullled from a website), and the view setting can't fix that. What's the effective resolution when you check the info panel?
    For what it's worth, this should not be a raster image at all, most likely, unless you are making a layout strictly for the screen.

  • High Quality Display -appears corrupted

    Hello,
    I have a problem with High Quality display of placed TIF files (InDesign CS3 5.0.4). When viewed at high magnification the image is replaced by a solid black with diagonal black & white lines across the top section.
    I've read through the archives of display performance issues and tried the suggestions, but have been unsuccessful in resolving the issue:
    1) Restored preferences
    Ensured the following options are selected:
    2) Object Display Performance > High Quality
    3) View > Display Performance > Allow Object Level Display Settings
    Placement of the image is critical with what I do, so because the issue is normally associated with CMYK TIFs I can usually use a Gray TIF to position correctly, then replace this with the CMYK version. However, the more complex the layout becomes, the Gray TIF too becomes "corrupted" at a high zoom factor. Of course, the exported PDF is always true, but I really need to view truly at high magnification in InDesign.
    I close all other applications to ensure it is not a RAM problem, but to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Marvin,
    The TIF file in this example consists of a repeating sequence of adjacent columns in the following configuration: 8 white pixel, 7 black pixels.
    This pattern repeats across the width of the file.
    I've attached one of these files below. Please try to view it at 4000% when placed in InDesign.
    (Please note that this problem also occurs with photographic images as well).
    If I then crop the attached file in Photoshop, re-save and place in InDesign it will preview correctly at 4000%.
    If I leave it at its original dimensions, but convert to a Gray TIF, it will preview correctly -for a while, but eventually also become "corrupted". As I mentioned in my initial post, I've had to use a Grey TIF to get the placement correct, then replace with the CMYK TIF version. Saving with and without LZW compression makes no difference. The fact that the Grey version works temporarily has got me confused. As it happens, for the moment anyway, a narrow width file in CMYK is previewing okay, but then in the past I've used TIFs just ~100 mm wide and had the same problem.

  • Missing image when export to pdf & in High Quality Display

    Customer sent me this file so I have no history. Latest version of InDesign. There are a few images that when I select the box it does not show it as linked, but there is an image there. These same images/boxes disappear when I select View>High Quality Display & they are also missing when I make a pdf. Many other images are linked and work fine. What's going on with these other images/boxes? Embedded maybe? I don't have experience with embedded images, how do I get them to show when making a pdf?

    Is this what your looking for Peter?

    Set up the Preflight panel so it checks image resolution. Ask your printer what the appropriate resolution is for your printing process, and set that in Preflight.

  • CAD - Is there a High-Quality Open-Source App?

    I need a good open-source CAD app for architectural work. It must import and export Autocad stuff.
    I'd like it to be 3D, but am confused about whether that's compatible with Autocad? Also the 3D renderings of some apps look a little queer:

    Can anyone recommend a good CAD app which can handle complex work?

  • Pixelated images (with High Quality Display turned on)

    Here's my problem: The images look sharp on the internet, but when I download them, place them in Indesign and print them, the look pixelated!
    Take this one for example: http://media.smashingmagazine.com/images/typefaces/productus.gif
    It's resolution is 72 ppi. But when I place it onto the Indesign A4 page (or Letter format for that matter) it occupys almost entire width of the page.
    Why is it so? Why is it so big by default without enlarging it? It's kinda logic that a small 72 ppi image stretched across the whole page will appear blurry when printed on 300 dpi printer.
    So how can I set the indesign page to 300 ppi/dpi so images with lower restion will appear smaller when placed on the page and - will be printed sharp?

    Where can you specify this preference?
    And you mean there's a script for InDesign? Wow, it would be cool to get it. So far I solved that problem by recording an Action in Photoshop and than apply it to all the images using Batch command.
    Preference is down at the bottom of the File Handling section ...  Check the bos to preserve dimensions and a the relinked file will be scaled back to the same size in ID. Uncheck, and the scale percentage will be preserved.
    Almost anything is scriptable in ID (but I don't write them). I recall a script that was posted a year or two ago that would allow you to select an image and type a desired effective resolution into a dialog. The image would get scaled to reach that effective ppi. Your batch action in Photoshop is fine, and useful if you want to palce everything at 100%, but it isn't required to change the resolution in Photshop to achieve what you want. Scaling in ID is exactly the same thing as changing the resolution without resampling in Photoshop. No pixels are added, removed or altered -- only their dispalyed size is changed. If you want a script to set all images to 300 ppi effective resolution, you should probably pay a visit to the scripting forum.

  • Use high quality video setting available button

    How do we keep this button in QT preferences selected/checked forever? It is deselected everytime I open QT player. Is it how it is designed?

    Most G5's and all of the Intel Mac's are at the "high" end. G4's under 1.4 GHz are "old" in QuickTime terms.
    The new H.264 Video codec requires a lot of CPU power. My nearly 3 year old Mac mini drops frames in any HD content over 480. 720 files set to 30fps give me about 24 to 26. 1080 HD gives me 12 to 15 and makes watching those file a wasted download.
    My G3 400 can view only the smallest sized H.264 files.

  • Only top left quadrant of AVI DV files shows in High Quality mode

    I'm having the same problem as this person:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3396179&#3396179
    AVI files that have NTSC DV video in them only show the top left quarter of the image throughout playback when I have checked the "Use the high quality video setting..." option in Player Preferences. This occurs with direct captured footage and footage rendered out of my video editing program. Any solutions? The DV footage looks horrible in low quality mode, and makes it hard to know if your shots are actually rendered correctly, so I'd rather not have to use that.
    --Judd

    I am having the same issue, It plays ok on my Mac Pro, but when I play it on my XP pro machine, it only plays in the top left quarter of play window.
    Have seen this question in oter threads here, but they remain un-answered. Hope someone can help with this issue, as it is quite annoying!

  • Cs5 High quality

    Hello,
    I have CS5 and Display Performance High Quality isn't working… Never had this problem it has always worked but now, I choose like I normally do to stop the graphic from being distorted and nothing happens… Any suggestions of how to correct?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Can you check the settings for High Quality display in "Preferences > Display performances > Adjust View Settings". The display settings for each of the display performance is picked up from the preferences stored here.
    Thanks

  • (JS)  Setting Display Performance to High Quality

    I am currently using InDesign CS3 with the ExtendToolScript 2.0
    I have a script that imports XML to create business cards. Along with text it also imports the logo and picture for each employee. The script runs fine but I cannot figure out how to have the display performance setting to high quality so that the images to do not look pixelated on screen. I have tried the DisplayPerformancePreference setting and that did not work. Any suggestions or the line of code to accomplish this would me much appreciated.

    Hi Justin,
    // High quality display
    app.activeWindow.viewDisplaySetting = ViewDisplaySettings.HIGH_QUALITY;
    // Fast display
    app.activeWindow.viewDisplaySetting = ViewDisplaySettings.OPTIMIZED;
    // Typical display
    app.activeWindow.viewDisplaySetting = ViewDisplaySettings.TYPICAL;

  • 12ms response time... is this rather slow for a high cost display?

    I was waiting to buy the new 27" display but now that it has been arrived at a cost of £899 in the UK I am looking at cheaper alternatives, accepting that cheaper will probably mean lower spec. I am surprised to find that many much lower priced displays from manufacturers such as LG, HP, and Samsung appear to have faster response times, for instance 2ms or 5ms, whereas the Apple display's response time is listed as being 12ms. I think I am correct in thinking that a lower response time means that fast action video looks better on screen, but this doesn't seem to make sense that such an expensive and high quality display as Apple's would be slower, so am I misunderstanding something here?
    What are the most important figures to take account of when looking at the spec of a good display?

    You can look at other manufactures. Their price is usually lower. I have a HP 24" with a IPS LCD screen. Apple doesn't have an exclusive on IPS screens.

  • Converting TIFF to JPEG with sips, then import into iPhoto problems

    I am cataloguing a box of slides and negatives for my family. The scanner generates huge TIFF files (on purpose), and I have an Applescript that then uses sips to copy them into low quality JPEG files using this command:
    do shell script ("sips -s format jpeg -s formatOptions low -s description " & "'" & "Original path: " & (POSIX path of an_image) & "'" & space & (POSIX path of an_image) & " --out " & new_file)
    where an_image is the source file, and new_file is the path and name of the converted image.
    This way, I can save the original file path as the image's description while shrinking the file size to speed up later importing into iPhoto. As part of the iPhoto import, that description from the metadata is placed in the on screen comment section for each image.
    This works fine to do the initial shrinking, but less than half of the resulting jpeg files can subsequently be imported into iPhoto. I get this error:
    The following file could not be imported. (The file is in an unrecognizable format.)
    And yet, Preview and Safari both open the files with no problems.
    Is there anything else I need to set when doing the conversion with sips to make it easier for iPhoto to recognize the converted files?
    I have over 1000 images, and anticipate a final total of about 2500 when I am done. These are images of myself and my siblings from the 1960s and 1970s, and my idea is to scan them all at high resolution, and use the converted, smaller files for iPhoto for keywording and Faces to get them organized, while retaining the paths to the original images. Any commentary is appreciated.

    I have uploaded one of the bad JPG files here:
    www.mrcodeboy.com/smith/Try.jpg
    I tried examining the metadata with exiftool, Image Events, and mdls, but there are a number of differences between the TIFF metadata and the JPEG metadata structures. I found no obvious differences, but this is a good idea, and I will continue to examine those closely for clues.
    *EDIT*
    I downloaded the bad JPEG above onto a different machine; it still does not import into iPhoto. However, by invoking sips on that file to convert it back to a TIFF file thusly:
    sips -s format tiff Try.jpg --out TryTF.tif
    it imported just fine. There has to be some sort of parameter that is NOT being addressed in the conversion from TIFF to JPEG that is somehow messing this up, yet is preserved when the file is re-written as a TIFF.

  • Losing metadata after TIFF to JPEG conversion in Image Processor

    When I use Image Processor to convert TIFF to JPEG for my images I am losing metadata information placed in the Properties section of my image file (PC). Is there a work-around for this so that the information isn't lost? Any idea why this is happening?

      Possibly the tiff is 16 bit.
    In Full Edit click Image à Mode à 8 Bit/channel
    Then save as jpeg.
