Problem loading vector EPS images

Hello All-
I'm having trouble loading vector EPS files (created in Adobe Illustrator CS2) in the data manager (version 5.5.34.46). I have Photoshop CS2 installed and have run the registry compatibility update. When I select the image to add to my data group, Photoshop launches (usually..) to load the preview image but when I say OK, I get one of the following errors:
1. Illegal value for parameter (within Data Manager)
2. Unspecified error (within Data Manager)
3. Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error (within Data Manager)
4. Virtual function call failed (within Photoshop)
I am able to load TIF images although the preview images do not display correctly but I do not want to rasterize my existing vector EPS files.
After setting the images to RGB color space, I was able to do 2 or 3 EPS imports but it took several attempts and has since not functioned at all. The properties on these files show that they are in fact vector and they work downstream in Publisher and InDesign. This is how I'd like them all to work.
Any suggestions on how to make this work? Are vector EPS files supported?
Thanks
Tim

Tim-
Before upgrading to the latest hotfix, I did get a couple vector EPS files to load, and the preview did exist in Data Manager and Publisher. Trouble was, I couldn't consistently load the images without errors. Now I can load the images, but lost the preview. For the time being, this is the lesser of 2 evils.
I do not have any variants defined at this point so I can verify that linked images do NOT get published to InDesign (unless there is another setting I haven't found to force MDM to use Originals).
All of the raster graphics I tried (TIF & JPG) work just fine in Publisher and InDesign but as you probably know, vector graphics are the smaller and produce better results for DTP applications so they are preferred, if the choice is available.
If you're going to load SP05 right away, please post any findings that relate to these issues.
Thanks for your help.
Tim

  • Problem: loading SQL Server 'image' data

    Source database: SQL Server 2000
    OS: Windows 2003 (SP1)
    Oracle: 10g (R2)
    Datatype Mapping: SQL Server ‘image’ to oracle ‘BLOB’
    With the help of OMWB, I created the oracle database schema for a SQL Server DB (offline capture). I have problems when I tried to populate the (destination) database with two tables with ‘image’ datatype:
    Frame.img (as on http://www.sdss.org.uk/mybestdr5/en/help/browser/description.asp?n=Frame&t=U)

    The part of .ctl files (generated by OMWB) for the two ‘img’ columns is like this:
    IMG CHAR(2000000) "HEXTORAW (:IMG)")
    I failed to load the data with the sql_load_script.sh script, and the log file is like this:

  • Problem loading large DNG images with Camera RAW!

    Hello,
    When loading large DNGs with Camera RAW 4.4 (for example, DNG dimensions are 9984x6656) CS3 says "cannot open the image because this is not a right kind of a document". EXACTLY THE SAME file is loaded without a problem using Camera RAW 3.7 and 4.0 (did not test other versions). Have you specially prevented loading of large files? Wouldn't it be better to provide this as an option? It's a real disappointment - new version of plugin CANNOT do the thing that older versions CAN. (Simply using older version is not an option, as I need to load RAWs from new cameras, like Canon 450D).
    Dear Adobe, please correct this problem :)

    It might be wise to give some insight like how the DNG was created, by what version of what software, if ACR is hosted in Photoshop or Bridge... What platform you are using, how much RAM, memory allocation, etc.

    This problem just started for about 3 to 4 days now.  earlier it was working normally.

  • Problem loading Image data with French accent in file name

    We have a very complex commercial application that has been working perfectly in English for over a year. We have now localized it to French and Spanish, and discovered a serious show-stopping problem. We need help fast, with the scheduled release being less than 2 weeks away...!
    We iterate over a folder to find all the images in it, then display those in a user window.  The code for loading the images is:
                for each (var name:String in filenames){
                    var image:SmoothImageTransformable = new SmoothImageTransformable();
                    var imagePath:String = dir + "/" + name;
                    image.source = imagePath;
                    trace("Adding Item to picture carousel with url " + image.source);
                    image.data = {directory:dir, filename:name};
                    image.isDragEnabled = true;
                    image.setStyle("horizontalCenter", 0);
                    image.setStyle("verticalCenter", 0);
                    _images.push(image);
    Our SmoothImageTransformable class is an internal class that inherits from Image.  This all works fine for image names like 'myFavoritePhoto', 'test', 'photo346', etc.  However, it fails to load the data if the file name is something like 'caméra'  Any name with a UTF-8 character causes the data load to fail.
    To be sure we weren't doing a load somewhere else in the code that I had overlooked, I added a "image.autoLoad = false' line in there.  That did exactly as expected -- all image squares then show a grey blank, with no image shown.  Removing that line (reverting to the original code, as shown above) causes all the images to work perfectly, except for those with French accent characters like the é.
    HELP!  Is this a known bug?  Is there some additional setting I need to make it understand the extended character set?  I can't find any mention about this at all in the documentation.

    @markerline:
    We have a fix!  Almost...   I don't understand one aspect of what I am seeing though.
    We have one test file named "camèra.jpg" that is an example of what I am unable to load into an Image.  I decided to examine the character codes at each letter, and this is what Flex has as the string:
    name = cam?ra.jpg
       [0] = c; 0x99
       [1] = a; 0x97
       [2] = m; 0x109
       [3] = ?; 0x232
       [4] = r; 0x114
       [5] = a; 0x97
       [6] = .; 0x46
       [7] = j; 0x106
       [8] = p; 0x112
       [9] = g; 0x103
    Note that the è prints as gibberish in the trace statement, and shows a numeric encoding of 0x232.  According to
         http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/web2/action/appb_01.htm
    The unicode equivalent of Latin1 for è is 0xE8, which is equivalent to 0x232. That implies that the string is already Latin1, which I would think would mean that Windoze would recognize the file name and open it properly -- but it does not.
    I then tried taking the "camèra.jpg" string, pasting it into NotePad++ in a UTF8 document, then telling NotePad++ to display as ASCII.  The result is "camèra".  I then tried just forcing the file name within Flex to this new mangled string.  The result then is:
    MAGIC name = camèra
       [0] = c; 0x99
       [1] = a; 0x97
       [2] = m; 0x109
       [3] = ?; 0x195
       [4] = ?; 0x168
       [5] = r; 0x114
       [6] = a; 0x97
       [7] = .; 0x46
       [8] = j; 0x106
       [9] = p; 0x112
      [10] = g; 0x103
    Note this time the trace statement looks proper.  More important, the IMAGE DOES LOAD!  (Our display of the name to the user now looks like crap, but that just means I need to modify our class to have a separate 'name' property, rather than extracting it from the 'image.source')
    So... my remaining question -- what encoding did I just do through that NotePad++ incantation?  That site I quoted above said that it was already Latin1, which is what I thought I was trying to get to.  I clearly need to write a method to map from incoming (UTF8 I thought, but maybe Latin1?) to Windows file system (Latin1 I thought, but maybe ASCII).
    In other words, I am not sure what charcter set to come from or go to...  It turns out the code was already in the character set I had been trying to go to (which is why it wasn't working) and the set I seem to need to go to is not the one I thought...

  • IOException: Problem loading image

    Hi foreros
    What could be the reason behind an error like this IOException: Problem loading image except it cannot find the jar path for the images?

    Without more information, I'd say there's not enough available RAM to load the image.

  • Problem loading image into texture memory

    Hi there, I am currently porting our new casual PC game over to the iPad using the pfi, the game was written in Flash so the porting process isn't that hard thankfully, it's mainly just optimizing the graphics.
    So far things are going smoothly, I was initially worried about graphical performance, but since we put everything into the GPU that's no longer a concern- it runs super smooth at 60fps at 1024x768, we can have a hundred large bitmaps rotating and alphaing at once with no slowdown.
    However there is one weird problem which is really worrying me at this point- it seems that the speed at which images are loaded into video memory as textures is vastly different depending on what else is being run on the iPad, for example:
    * If I run my game with nothing else in memory, it will run fine at 60fps, and load up large images into texture memory very fast.
    * If I run another App, in this case a Virtual piano app for a while, then close that App via the Home button (so the piano app is still in memory but suspended due to the multitasking), then when I run my game, it will run ok initially, but when I try to load a large (1024x512) image into texture memory it pauses the whole game for several seconds.
    * To make matters worse, if I repeat the same test using the RAGE app from ID software (which is very graphically intense), my game actually slows down to 1 fps and runs extremely slowly as soon as I run it and the frame rate never returns to normal. If I then double-click the home button, shut down RAGE, then go back to my game, it will run fine.
    I have read that sometimes when you load images into texture memory it will have to reclaim that memory from other apps, but that doesnt exaplain why it slows down every time I want to load something, or why the game would slow right down to a crawl.
    So then it seems that having other Apps in memory is slowing down my game, or stopping it from working altogether. Obviously this is not ideal and would stop us from releasing, so is there any way I can stop this, has anyone come across the problem? Please help!
    PS. this problem also happens on an iPhone 4, as I have performed the same tests.

    Hi _mz84
    First thing I noticed, is that you did not close your

  • Funny problem loading images

    Hi all,
    I'm currently on Safari ver 4.1.3.
    Previously an auction website I'm often surfing works fine, but now it has problems loading specific images. Or rather it just doesn't load the product images at all. Seems stuck as there are no indication that there are images there.
    Tried the following:
    • using another set of dns
    • reset safari, cleared caches, delete plist, etc
    • double check to see if I had installed anything or tampered the prev settings to no avail

  • Why does Safari have a problem loading images on some websites?

    Safari has a problem loading pages properly or images on certain websites. Apple.com is one of the websites. On my way in here this time it didnt load any images on the front page. I emptied my cache and reloaded the page but that didnt help. Clicked on a broken image that took me to the proper page but without any images. Clicked on a different broken image on to the page and the images load no problem. Click back to the home page images load problem. Clicked on in to support forums and posted this topic.
    Any ideas... it has done this for awhile. Everything is enabled in web content(preferences) Always accept cookies is selected.
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    I occasionally see messages telling me that my software won't let me see the HTML version of an email, but it's there on the page when I open it. This happens mostly with emails from Apple, but have also had a similar message from a few of the photography mags that I subscribe to.
    For my part, I just ignore it. It won't go away, but I just don't let it bother me.

  • Problem loading images - please help

    Hi,
    I have a slight problem loading images. I'm using netbeans 5.0 and have a few packages setup in a project called Maths. In a package called LineConnection theres a class that needs to read an image and display it on screen. To load the image I use:
    URL url = getClass().getResource("fraction/pic1.png");
    Image img1 = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url);This loads the image and I can display it on screen fine.
    The problem is that the folder fractions with the images in HAS to be located within the Maths/build/class/LineConnection folder otherwise it wont load the image and I get a null pointer exception.
    I want to be able to have the folder containing the images in folder Maths so that it's one folder above the src folder. But if I put it here (or anywhere else) the images can't be found and loaded.
    Could someone tell me why the images can only be found if they're within the build folder because it's causing me some problems when I try to create an executable JAR.
    Cheers

    I've used:
    URL url = ImageHandler.class.getResource("fractions/q0.png");               
    System.out.println("URL = " + url);to determine whether the file is found.
    If I put the file in the folder build/classes/LineConection/fractions/q0.png then it finds the image and prints the file path.
    But, if I put it in another folder such as the src folder it can't find the image and url = null;
    How can I make netbeans search in other folders for the resources so I can store them where I like?

  • Problem loading image in an applet

    I've written the simplest of Java applets that loads a single image (a map) for a conservation website. However, I've determined that, depending on the filename (it appears), the map is either visible or not. I was after some help to debug this - I really don't understand why the filename "Peacock.gif" works but "Glanville Fritillary.gif" doesn't. Other filenames with spaces in the name are fine, so I don't think this is a factor. The map itself is fine since I can simply change the name and it works fine! I'm using JRE 1.6.0_03 - and am wondering if there's a caching bug that's been introduced since this all used to work fine, I believe. Help!

    Hmmm. I've rolled back to version 1.5 of the JRE and everything works fine. Seems like it's a bug in the caching implementation of version 1.6 but can't be sure.
    Any ideas? And thanks in advance!
