Powerpoint Clip Art - HELP!

Greetings all,
Im looking for Oracle clip art for MS Powerpoint. I need to put put together a presentation on 10G clusterware for my boss and a few developers. I've spent a good part of the day hunting for decent DB technology clip art. Our "presentations" are usually left to discussion with a few markups on the white board. Now the boss wants a more "professional" apperance. He's going to present it to some Execs on the advances to internal IT structure.
I've tried some of the stuff that comes with our Oracel software...but it looks gross when I enlarge it.
I would "think" Oracle wouldn't mind sharing their clip art for presetions of their technology to the purchasing decision makers.
gracias.

It should not be difficult for you to ask your local sales team, especially the sales consultants who create presentations on a regular basis. In fact, they might be overjoyed at providing a pre-defined presentation.

When saving a document as a PDF for printing, I lose pages, clip art, and my orginal format. Help!

I have created some forms for our congregation to fill in with answers on adobe forms central. When I go to turn it into a PDF for printing for a hard copy, (not all our members have internet) when i save it to a PDF, it doesn't save all the pages and formats it differently then show on the screen i programmed it onto. How do I fix this issue?

Hi;
In the "Feature Tutorials/Help" linked from the top of the main page of the Forums: Feature Tutorials / Help
There is a Tutorial on "Creating and distributing fillable PDF Forms": Tutorial: Creating and distributing fillable PDF forms
The main thing to look at is the "View" setting and for PDF set it to "Page View", the page breaks you define in Page View will be used in the PDF, there are also "implicit" page breaks added automatically based on the page size.
For the issue with clip art see this FAQ: Image does not show up in PDF
Thanks,

How do I create a 12" x 48" banner & not have my clip art pixelate?

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this, so thank you for your patients.
We have a Konica Minolta Bizhub 353 printer that does 48" x 12" indoor banners.
We have been using Microsoft Powerpoint to create the banners.
The clip art we use either as a background or as a top graphic looks great on our computer screen in the design stage, but when we print it in the full 48" x 12" size, it pixelates badly.
I understand most of the art is in raster rather than vector.
Will pruducing the banners in Adobe Illustrator fix this problem?
Thanks for any help.

Will pruducing the banners in Adobe Illustrator fix this problem?
No. Raster images are raster images and will always be bound by the restrictions of pixels.
The only way to correct your issue is to use different clip art which is at a higher resolution (PPI) or which is vector. Simply switching to Illustrator and maintaining your current workflow, will not improve anything.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Clip Art/Graphics

Hello,
I am taking an on-line digital scrapbooking class at my local community college. We are using Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. I have been trying to get help so that I am able to see the clip art that my class is using. Yesterday before I uninstalled and then reinstalled my software, I could see the clip art/graphics but the ones with a blue triangle in the upper right corner would not upload. My internet is working properly since I was on-line for my class.
After reinstalling my software, all the clip art/graphics are useable, but I do not have the collection like before.
Please can someone help me so I can keep up with my class. Thank you in advance for any help that comes my way.
Thank you again,
Angela

Barbara, thank you very much. I really miss it. I have tested jalbum. It's great.
PSE 12 should also offer something like this.

Inserting Clip Art In A Pages 09 Document

How do you insert clip art in to a Pages 09 document? I am new to iWork after using Appleworks for many years. I have many CDs of Nova Art Explosion Clip Art that I want to use in my documents. I can not seem to find any information on how to insert clip art. All help greatly appreciated.

John,
Just to let you know Pages does not use .wmf and .pict is mostly history now.
*The main formats that Pages will use are:*
.jpeg, jpeg2000, .tif, .png, .gif, .pdf and .ai saved with .pdf preview.
Of the *Nova Art Explosion Clip Art* the most useful will be the vector .eps files which Pages will convert to .pdf when imported.
*Best is to open and convert the .eps clipart in Preview*
Which does several things:
1. It converts them to .pdf
2. It converts them to color managed cmyk
3. It shrinks the image selection to the image's bounding box ie gets rid of all the background and only selects the image.
4. As long as there is no opaque background drawn as part of the clipart, you will have a transparent background.
5. It will save the file as a very small .pdf file
6. The pdf file will be viewable in Finder on the *Icon Preview* or in CoverFlow, also when you view it in your *Open dialog box*.
*There are 4 ways to import the clipart*
1. Drag and drop it into Pages from Finder.
If you drop it into text it will become an inline graphic and act as it it was a character in the text, moving with the text.
If you drop it on a non-text area it will create its own image box and fill it.
If you drag it onto an image placeholder box it will either neatly fit into the image box or be cropped, however the box has been set-up.
2. You can use +Menu > Import > Choose… > browse to image > select > OK+ This will drop the image into the middle of your page view at its original size in its own image box.
3. You can make a collection of clipart in a named folder then drag that folder into the top pane of the Media Browser:
+Menu > View > Show Media Browser > Photos+
When you click on the folder in the Media Browser the contents will be displayed in the preview window underneath from where they can be dragged into the Pages layout or onto image boxes.
4. Pages has something called Shapes which you can add by going to the Shapes menu on the window Toolbar. These are native Pages drawings. They can be scaled, colored and contain text or images which are cropped by the shape.
Right at the bottom of the Shapes menu is a pen tool which lets you draw your own shapes, however it is one of the worst drawing tools I have encountered on the Mac.
Shapes can be imported from .svg files. .svg is an open vector or vector + bitmap file format readable directly in most *Web Browsers*. Unfortunately they are not directly supported in Pages, but they can be imported using svg2key into Keynote as shapes, from where they can be cut and pasted into Pages.
OmniGraffle has sets of clipart called Stencils, these can be cut and pasted into Keynote and possibly into Pages, but requires you to have a copy of OmniGraffle on your machine.
A great deal of commercial and free clipart is available on the Net, much of it substantially better than the crude, cheap looking Nova material which was mostly "sourced" from PC clipart nad has that sort of style and color palette.
ClipArt can be very good and can be very bad, make sure you select the appropriate style and format for your work. You can scour through the Nova collection for the few good examples and make your own selection converted to useful formats such as .pdf and keep them in labelled folders which you can then select from previews using large *Icon View* or CoverFlow in Finder.
You can also copy and paste clipart from AppleWorks.

Clip art in Photoshop elements 9

I just purchased Photoshop Elements 9, I was working with the trial for a few weeks and had to have it. I am new to this software but I am learning pretty quickly; I am designing a book cover for my wife using a photo I took and wanted to know if you can insert a clip art image. I am trying to add an image of angel wings to the photo. I have already added a new text layer and want to place the wings underneath the text, Any help with this would be great.
Thanks again.
MM

1) Open your main image in the Editor window and add text - you will have two layers in the layers pallet.
2) Open your angel image (File >Open then browse to image)
3) With both images in the project bin double click the main image to place it back in the Editor window.
4) Click the angel image in the project bin and drag it up into the main editor window - this will create a third layer.
5) Select the hand tool and hold down shift and drag the corner handles of the bounding box to re-size the angel image then move to position by dragging.
6) Save as a PSD or for jpeg Click layer >Flatten image >Save As.

I want to know how to save photos and clip art to my photo libary.

I want to save different photos and clip art (non-copyrighted) to my desktop photo library. I do not know how to do this. Can someone help me?

When you see the image you want, right click on it and say '''Save Image As'''. In the box that pops up, navigate to the folder you want to save it as, and click '''Save'''

I would like to freely add clip art in Full Edit Mode in PSE 5.0

Hello,
I am new to Photoshop Elements. I have PSE 5.0 on a windows XP platform with service pack 3 installed. I want to be able to create flyers with PSE and would like to freely be able to add various types of clip art into my canvas. I know you can do this when you're creating slides, but I want to be able to do this in PSE full edit mode, not by creating a slide show via the organizer.
There are tons of clip art online and they have various file types too. I am also wondering if I can use any of the file types as well. The ones that PSE has for the slide shows are .png. But online I have seen .wmf, .mpf, .jpg as well. How can I incorporate all this clip art for use in creating flyers and/or logos by just starting with a blank 8.5 x 11 canvas in full edit mode?
Any expert help here would be greatly appreciated. I was able to do this using Word, but Word of course lacks the graphic quality and optionality of PSE greatly.
Sincerely,
Lee

Thanks for your reply here Bob. I have read what you mentioned above and am not quite sure how to do it that way. What I have been doing so far is to find a clip art item somewhere, copy it to the clipboard, then bring it into PSE with the File-New-from clipboard command.
This will bring it into it's own space and Layer as a separate file on it's own. Then I select it, copy the selection to the clipboard once again, move over to my blank canvas which only has one background layer now, and paste it onto this canvas.
This seems to be working, but I loose the Vector graphic aspect of the clip art image because it converts it to a raster type of image now. So I have to be very careful in resizing it to not loose resolution and such.
I noticed when I go to create a slide show in PSE, I have access to the graphics palette where you can double click a piece of clip art and it goes right onto your slide and stays as a vector image. I can get to these images while in full-edit mode, but I have to use the file-open command and navigate to the right folder and then open one up into full-edit mode as it's own layer. But then once again, I loose the vector aspect and I have to go through the process of selecting it, copying it to the clipboard and then pasting onto my blank canvas.
I know that MS Word is no match for this product, but at least there I could easily add clip art to any flyer I am making without loosing the vector aspect. But I know that the quality is so much better here in PSE and that I just need to learn how to utilize more of its functionality and power. Hence why I am writing this post I suppose.
Isn't there an easier way to get clip art into your blank canvas in full edit mode without having to go through all this and/or without having to create a slide show to get access to this clip art pallete? And having to loose the vector aspect of the clip art is not so wonderful either. Did I buy the wrong Adobe application - Ha!
Should I be using Illustrator since I want to create flyers using clip art, type and effects?
My apologies for this long post, but I would really like to be able to utilize, if at all possible, PSE 5.0's full power to create great quality flyers using all these things.
Thanks again,
Lee

Clip Art Suggestions?

Does anyone know of any good clip art collections other than Art Explosion? I have an older Art Explosion and I'm not too happy with it - bland images and too many duplicates.
I would like to find a clip art package that has decent, Macintosh-friendly file names to help with searching. With CoverFlow in Leopard, I don't need any previews, thumnails, or catalog programs. Having image metadata searchable via spotlight would be ideal, but I would be happy with file names better than TECHNOLOGY11.JPG, TECHNOLOGY12.JPG, etc.
I don't really want to use the online services because I like to have things local. I don't mind paying for it. I would buy Art Explosion 750000 if I were happy with my old Art Explosion 500000 (or whatever I have).
Thanks

Thank you. Thats what I am talking about. Except the collection I had seen at the printer's place, years ago, had a variety of subjects in each catalogue he had there. At $200 dollars per subject listed here, I think I'd better look up this printer, and find out what the names of the collections they had there. I hope I can get one of those collections for the two hundred or less.
From what I figure, clip art has been around for a century or more, used by newspapers and magazines for articles and advertisements. Some of the clip art that I had seen in those collections looked like they could have been created by artists back in the 1920s or earlier.

Masking and clip art with transparent backgrounds

I'm new to iWeb and am creating a travel blog. So far love the simplicity of it. However, when I try to add clip art type images or graphics with transparent backgrounds I always get a white border around them. I have tried to mask or crop the border out but no dice. Any help?!
Also, if anyone can recommend a good source for travel or photo related clip art let me know. The iWeb "Roadtrip" template seems to have some cute items - maps, scissors, tape, etc. - but there is not much there.
Thanks everyone.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That's the default border for added image files. Go to the Inspector/Graphic pane and take off the frame/stroke that is added by default.
Click to view full size
Be sure to post a request to remove that default border at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html. The more complaints the better.

Clip art or icons

Can someone tell me if there is clip art on a mac as in windows or what its equal is and how to get to it? I have started using Ibank and the program will let you put pictures or icons by the transactions . I would like to have the icons i am going to use saved on my mac so i don't have to get them off the web all the time.Maybe someone out here uses ibank and knows how to save them in ibank. Either way would be a big help.

If you want access to any and all, from your Applications folder, Control+click on the iWeb.app. Choose Show Package Contents.
You can find all of these items by following this path:
Contents/Resources/English.Iproj/Templates
Select the template that has the Clip Art you want, and Control+click on it, again, choosing Show Package Contents. Find the item you are looking for and double-click it; it will open in Preview. Now, File/Save As, and choose the Desktop as the location.
You have now acquired your clip art from the iWeb.app and it is saved on your Desktop. The nice thing about this approach is you can get anything; e.g., some of those cool Apple page backgrounds.

CS3 w/Vista and My Clip Art Collection

Hi - have had CS3 for about six months but just now getting deep into using it (good bye Quark!). Tried to use some clip art from my collection and it gives me a message that the type can't be opened and is not compatible. In the controls I have them all turned on - .bmp, .tif and of course, even the .jpegs! But it will take nothing off the CDs. It imports and uses clipart from lots of other sources, but declines any of my CDs. I even tried cut, past and copy in the clip board - but it does the same thing. Now, granted they are ten years old on average - but the base format did not change - did it? Also, I had no problem opening them with my 7.1 Adobe Pagemaker under Vista, or at this time with any other program on the same computer. HELP!

Not only does WMF not support CMYK (no big deal in this day an age)
there's no apparent support for bezier curves, either.
So, anything that looks like it has curves really has lots of little
straight line segments. If you scale it up, you wind up with the same
problem you have with raster images.
FWIW, the only program I've found that does a good job of creating WMFs
is CorelDRAW. Illustrator's capabilities there are awful unless I
haven't been able to find some settings for smoothing out the curves.
Circles usually wind up looking like octagons.
