Problems with placed PSDs in ID CC2014

Hello everyone,
after placing a PSD file in ID, there a massive loss of quality which can best be seen on the edges.
Sample from original Logo in Photoshop, 100 %, CMYK (4000 x 2500 px, 300 dpi):
Image saved as PSD and placed in ID (no scaling in ID, dimension exactly as in PS, ID set to highest display quality, object set to highest display quality):
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Tim

InDesign only produces a lo-res proxy for the image.
Try setting your View>Display Perfromance to High Quality.
It's hard to see what's going wrong with the image as you've used a JPEG which added compression - so both images look the same.
PNG is better for the screen than JPEG - can you upload PNG screen shots of your artwork?
Also - please note that Smart Vector objects are only vector inside Photoshop and outputting (printing) from PDF.
All smart objects, no matter what file format are always rasterised when insert to another document.
The only objects that can retain vector data is Vector Masks, Vector Shapes, and Text Layers (effects will always be rastered).
And the only editable supported file for files with these elements is an Photoshop PDF.
Note - all smart objects will always be rasterised when inserted to any program to output, smart vector objects only retain their vectors for scaling in photoshop - they are rasterised on output.
For this reason you should use Adobe Illustrator.

Need help with placing PSD duotone in ILL CS5

Hi,
I am using Illustrator CS5 ver.15.0.2. I created a duotone image in Photoshop CS5 from a grayscale image, changed the image mode to duoton and assigned 2 different PMS colors. Saved as Photoshop format. When I tried to place the image in ILL, I got "the file is not readable" message in a dialog box. I tried to copy and paste the image and also drap and drop from PSD to ILL, nothing happened. Tried to delete the preferences files "Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings" folder and com.adobe.illustrator.plist and restarted ILL, problem still persisted. None of my colleagues was able to place a PSD duotone image into ILL. However, my vendor was able to place a PSD duotone into ILL. In addition, I was not able to open an ILL file from my vendor with a placed PSD duotone image.
I left comment in the Illustrator Help page, see link below, adobe moderators weren't able to give me an answer.

Any help is appreciated.

You must have the new Pantone Color Bridge libraries install but are selecting Pantone Coated or Pantone Uncoated as your library. Change that to Color Bridge Coated Or Color Bridge Uncoated in Photoshop save it with another name use the same colors of course. Then place that in Illustrator. These are the new formuals for the colors pantone makes and I believe they display more accurately on screen.
If you hae the new Libraries installed and you try to use the old ones you will get this message from Illustrator.
If you do not have the new Libraries installed as probably your printer has not done so then it may be yu have to install them and then you have to then use Color Bridge as described above.
Color Bridge Library seems to install to any version but I am not certain it is backward compatible with versions of Illustrator that do not have it installed.
So make and send two copies to the printer and explain that one uses Color Bridge.
That's funny originally I used Color + coated and i could not place it now i used it after switching to Color Bridge and that works as well. Go figure.

Has anyone had any problems with their PSDs getting corrupted using CS6 on an iMac?

I bought my iMac (Refurbished 21.5-inch iMac 2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5) in February. Installed CS6 and other programs including fonts I normally use. Last night though, as I was saving my layouts to PSD and JPG, I noticed the graphics were corrupted and had funky neon lines and converted my white coloured text to black! I restarted my computer, changed the colours back to white, re-saved and they (gladly) turned out normal again. I've never had this problem with my CS5 in my 2009 Macbook Pro. I was told by a friend that it could be the fonts I installed.. So I validated my fonts, removed the ones with the yellow warnings.. but I'm just worried this will happen again if I can't resolve the problem properly. I have no clue how to resolve this. Thoughts? Help?

Problem with transferring psds from PC cs2 to Mac cs3

Hello I'm having an issue with a psd file that was made on a PC using cs2.. i can't open up the file on a mac with cs3.. any reason why?
Bomber

If it is a Fonts issue, be aware that not all fonts are transferable from PC to Mac and vice versa.
I have to say though, that in the past when I've had conflicts like that it's opened the file and gave the option of substituting the font. Don't have CS3 though.
I'd still like to know how the files are being transferred.

Problem with placing self-signed certificate in trust store on WLS 10.3

I have had some problems setting up two-way SSL on WLS 10.3.2.
1. I have not been able to use the java properties listed on
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/11/09/enforce-weblogic-to-use-sun-ssl-implementation-rather-than-certicom/
to use the native Java SSL implementation rather than the certicom. Has anyone else had success using these?
-Djava.protocol.handler.pkgs=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol
-Dssl.SocketFactory.provider=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.SSLSocketFactoryImpl
-DUseSunHttpHandler=true
-Dweblogic.wsee.client.ssl.usejdk=true (for webservice clients)
2. When I use the ValidateCertChain to validate my keystore with the self-signed certificate I get the message
CA cert not marked with critical BasicConstraint indicating it is a CA
Certificate chain is invalid
which I read was a problem with certificates generated by keytool, yet I find I was not able to circumvent this
by setting the property weblogic.security.SSL.enforceConstraints to off in the WLS server environment.
Has anyone else noticed this?
3. The error I get is

Are there other conditions besides the issue about the missing Basic Constraint field that can raise an

4. Steps I used to generate jks keystore for inclusion in trust keystore (actual values substituted):
** keytool -genkey -alias mykey -keystore mykeystore -validity 35600 \

-storepass mypass -keypass mypass
** exported a DER format head certificate of mykey into mykey.cer.der
** keytool -import -trustcacerts -keystore DemoTrust.jks -alias mykey -file mykey.cer.der
Any comments appreciated and thanks for this forum.

Faisal,
Certicom has an internal restriction that a Date must be notBefore 1970 and notAfter 2105 inclusive.The Java-generated key is valid until Wed Mar 14 11:03:59 EDT 2108. Your knowledge of this area is
quite impressive, thank you so much for this!

Problems with masking and colours in CC2014 - not in CC - see screenshots!

Does anyone know this problem? Since a few weeks masking and using colors in CC2014 doesn't seems to work that well anymore. When masking 100% the masked layer still shows. When I use a colour (with pen or mouse) PSD changes the colour a little bit. I attach two screen prints to show you what I mean. Did the same in PSD CC and there was no problem at all.

When you measure in the Layer Mask what is the value?
          I don't exactly get what you mean
          I see colour space at 40%
Has the Density been changed in the Properties Panel?
          no, it is 100%, the feather is at 0 %
When you open the CC 2014 file in CC does the issue persist?
          No, in CC the same file works fine

Problem With Imported PSD

I have a PSD with transparent layers. When imported to Flash, some of the transparent layers have border colors along the edges which aren't in the PSD. Is this a limitation of the Flash Importer, or is there some setting to strict transparency on the edges?

Check File > Document Settings > Raster Effects
Settings.
The default is 72 dpi which is good enough for screen. 300
dpi is for print (press) but it may make screen redraw very slow.
Note that raster effects do not work well, or at all, in
FreeHand, especially with cmyk colors. And yes, most of the effects
will blur the object (!?!).
Probably the best way to create these effects is to use
Phothosop. Also in Illustrator the raster effects do work.

Problem with placing dynamic images.

I have a 800x600 file. It is being used for a PhotoSlide
show.
The images are displayed dynamically, as external files.
Some of the photos will be taken 1 hour before the
presentation, so I have
it set up to display img001.jpg, img002.jpg, img003.jpg as
external files.
Once the photos are taken, they'll be renamed, and placed in
the appropriate
folder, so that they'll appear in the presentation, without
having to
republish the authorware file.
I have the display icons for the images set to display the
image at 400,300,
which will center the image on-screen.
The problem is that when i change the images out, from a
verticle to a
horizontal picture, then run the piece, but image's placement
on screen
changes.
So how can I set the linked external file to ALWAYS display
centered on
screen, no matter the orientation, or size of the picture.

That doesn't change anything from when I had X = 400 and
Y=300.
The images are linked externally.
This is going to be a photo slideshow to be shown after a
wedding, during
the reception. I will NOT be there to administer this, or to
republish the
authorware files. So at the final segment of the slideshow,
we'll be showing
several photos taken earlier, at the wedding.
I have it set up to display 5 photos from the wedding. They
are grabbed
externally, but Authorware looking for img01.jpg - img05.jpg.
The problem is that the image's placement on-screen changes
when a different
size image is put in place.
For example, if i publish the authorware file, and i was
using a 720 x 480
image, everything works fine. But if i replace the external
image with a 480
x 720 image, the placement on screen is no longer set for the
center of the
image to appear at the dead center of the screen (400,300). I
need it to
work like this, since I don't know if the wedding photos
being added will be
set to portrait or landscape.

Problem with alt key in Photoshop CC2014

I'm running Photoshop CC 2014.2.2 Release under Win 7 on a dual monitor system 12 G ram, i7 processor, and a Radeon HD 6700 Graphics card. Everything was working fine until a few days ago. The first problem I noticed was in using ALT-left click to reduce zoom. CTRL-left click zoomed up OK but ALT-left click acted almost like I was pressing the F key to change the view. There are work-arounds for zooming so I continued working. Then I found I could not add a black mask to a layer by pressing ALT while clicking the add layer mask button on the layer panel. I also found that ALT didn't work right in ACR. For example in ACR holding down the ALT key changes the Cancel button to Reset, but clicking on Reset doesn't in fact reset any of the sliders.
I've closed and reopened Photoshop which helped for a short while but the problem came back. I opened Photoshop with the SHIFT-CTRL-ALT keys held down and accepted the resulting dialog box offer to delete preferences, which helped but again the problem returned. I've deleted and redownloaded Photoshop two or three times to no avail, and the last time I also checked that alt key combinations in both Bridge and Lightroom work OK at the same time they are not working in Photoshop. I haven't seen the Alt key misbehave in any application but Photoshop.
I would any suggestions any of you might have about what is wrong.
Message was edited by: Bob Roby to fix typos.

Just to clarify, are you referring to Alt Space bar left click and drag for zoom? If yes, then that needs 'Use GPU' enabled in Preferences > Performance. So can you check that? It actually works with either Ctrl or Alt together with the space bar. Left mouse click and drag left and right to zoom in and out.
If GPU is checked, can you try some different settings?

You should also make sure the video card driver is fully up to date, and from the card maker's web site.

Problem with placing Adobe files in InDesign

I'm working on a document in InDesign. I have CS3 Creative Suite. I have used this for a while now and not had this problem, but when I go to "place" and try to insert a "pdf" file, it will not allow me to do it any longer. The error says "Failed to open the pdf file".
Does anyone now what the fix is for this? I use pdf files all the time in InDesign, don't know what has happened.
Thanks in advance for any help that may be given.
Diana

Hi diana,
Is your pdf file get opened in Acrobat or Adobe Reader?? If yes means please check with document properties, is there any security provided to the document.

Problems with photoshop psd files in Lightroom 2

I've been using Photoshop with raw and jpeg images for years, until just recently i started learning Lightroom 2 by watching the Kelby Training series online. I have learned a ton, but there are some things that i am just not able to figure out and for some reason they have not addressed my issues on Kelby.com.
Here is my list:
1. When i edit my images in lightroom and then click on a specific image to edit it in photoshop because it needs something removed for example, lightroom does not do what Matt Kloskowski on Kelby says lightroom should do. It does not open up a box asking how i want to edit the image. supposedly a box listing these three things should appear: edit a copy with lightroom adjustments, edit a copy, edit the original. I already changed my preferences so that images would be taken into photoshop as PSD files with prophotoRGB, like he said to do. Instead of opening up this box, it just opens the image in photoshop. When i save the image after editing it, it does save it as a _edit-psd, but when i close the image and go back into lightroom, the psd file does not show up. supposedly, the psd file should be stacked right next to the original image and it is not there. when i look at the images in the finder, it shows the psd file.
is there another setting that i need to change?
2. when i want to covert my nef raw files to jpeg for printing and burning dvds for clients, what is the best way to do this? i've done it by exporting to jpeg. but why, when i jpeg, does lightroom not use the jpeg images? for example, when i run a slideshow of a collection of images, it uses the lightroom edited nef files, PLUS, since LR does not show the psd files, the changes i made on photoshop do not show up on the slideshow either! it seems to use the psd files when converting to jpeg, so if i could just figure out a way to use the jpeg images for the slideshow all the edits should be there.do i need to import the jpeg files back into LR as a new collection?
3. when i convert to jpeg using photoshop, there are xmp files. why are there no xmp files with the original images when LR is used? where is all the information that belongs with the RAW images?
ok. i actually have a ton more questions, but i'll start with these for now.
Thank you so much!

Check the destination you have specified in the Import panel. It needs to point to a location that Lightroom can read and more important write files to. Usually the error message (in English) says “files cannot be read” and this really means that LR was unable to copy the files to the destination so then when it tried to import from that destination not file were found to read.

A problem with placing images

I have been working on my graduate profolio, and final projects. When I import a file that is at high res, it appears blurry and pixelated after resizing with autofit. (When I resize using autofit, I use shift.) Is there anything I can do to remedy this problem? I don't want to do the projects over again.

easier to click on these Icons (while object selected)... play click and learn...

Problem with converting psd file to jpeg

I have completed a project with lots of layers and saved as a psd file including all the layers. I then flatten the image and save it as a jpeg. The jpeg doesnot look at all like the original psd.
this is the only file I have ever had that has done this. no other files are currently doing it. Just this one important days to complete file.
I work with Mac OS 10.6.8 Photoshop CS6 - Raw file to begin with. Never had this issue.
Anyone have any ideas.
I tried taking it into Cs5 and it did the same thing.

My dad took some maternity pictures of me, he took majority in B&W I wanted to make certain parts in color only so I watched a youtube tutorial to add color to a B&W he said to convert to a CMYK so I did, I continued to follow his instructions step by step. He just didn't mention that when it would save it would save as a PSD so I didn't even know abt that format until AFTER it happened. So I began to look up how to convert from PSD to JPEG...every forum I saw I tried what they suggested to no avail. I then went back to the original JPEG image, RE DID the edits, only this time when I went to save (as the SAVE AS feature truly isn't working, I can click it and click it, even use the shortcute keys...nothing happens) I scrolled down, chose the JPEG 2000 selection cause a forum said to chose JPEG when it pops up PSD, I didn't realize that it was different than a reg JPEG format and now it won't open even in cs6 it says NOT ENOUGH RAM and IDK why. So I've now gone yet again to the original JPEG, switched it to CMYK did all the edits again, I am now done editing, only this time I'm going to have someone tell me what to do next as it's still JPEG, 8bits chanel and I have NOT flattened it....what do I need to do next in order to insure it saves as a jpeg so I am able to upload it online?
I am not sure how to do screen shots or I would love to take them so someone can see exactly what I see. IDK if it matters but I am using the trial version of cs6, I was trying to get used to it some before I upgraded from cs5 extended.
If someone can instruct me as to how to post a link to the image so someone else could edit it then I'd be glad to do so.
I'm not an idiot...everyone started out a beginner at some point and I happen to be not as advanced as others...I see no fault in that, I am a 25 yr old woman who is busy as a working at home mom so forgive me if I can't invest a lot of time into learning a new program as quickly as I would like.
Thanks to anyone who can and is willing to help.

Problems with placing Tiff images in CS2

When placing a Tiff image in CS2 the file crashes or a memory warning appears. I am able to place much larger EPS images, so image size is not necessarily a factor Saving the file as an EPS in PhotoShop is not a solution as I am placing GeoTiffs which must retain their geographic reference file. The OS is Windows XP 32 - a quad core proc. - Radeon HD 6350 graphics controller with 512mb (dedicated)

No - it is possible to place a geotiff in illustrator - I have been able to do it. However, now I have a new PC and am unable to place the same types of tiff images I previously was able to in an older PC.
