Raster effects appearance differences between CS and CS3 at 72dpi

We have received a file from an outside vendor that, when viewed on a mac running Illustrator CS3 and one running CS, looks considerably different. Drop shadows becomes too dark and too  large when viewed in CS unless the document raster settings are set to  300dpi. BUT there is a white highlight that has a gaussian blur applied  and is set to "Overlay" in the transparency settings that appears  harsher and less graduated at 300dpi. Our concern is that we are sending  this file out for film in China and we have no way of knowing what the  final appearance will be.
The question is: Should we set the Document Raster Effects to 300 dpi and adjust the highlight so that it looks right...or should we leave it at 72 dpi and adjust the shadows.

  • One difference between AE7 and CS3

    Hi -
    I have AE7 at work and CS3 at home (both Macs and both dual monitor) and I found a funny "deficiency" in the GUI of the latter.  In AE7, there are certain panels that come to the front of all others when they are selected.  So - even though the Project panel is separate from and covered by the Timeline panel - clicking on the Project panel will bring it to the front - until I click on the Timeline again.
    In AE CS3 this is not the case.  The Timeline remains stubbornly in front of all the other panels - Project, Composition, Effects - that I normally have separate and available on the screen.  This is annoying.
    This can't be intentional because it's really dumb.  So I'm hoping there is a preference or setting somewhere I can use to fix this.
    I hope someone can clue me in to where it is.
    TIA your input.
    jl

    Andrew -
    It's just my preference - maybe a habit held over from 6.5.  If the timeline completely disappears when I select the Project panel - I lose my place.  It also makes it hard to drag something from the Project panel to the Timeline... or from the Effect panel to the Timeline.  I'm querky that way.  I'd rather things stay where they are and just switch "prominence" rather than disappear.
    So - NOT giving the selected palette screen prominance IS an advanced feature?
    Again I say - that can't be intentional.  Can it??

  • Site Appearance Differences between IE and FF

    Hi Everyone,
    So here is my problem...
    I've designed a website layout in Photoshop cs3. I cut it
    into slices, and used Dreamweaver cs3 to turn those slices into a
    nicely functioning website. My problem is visual consistency
    between two pages. Despite both pages being exported from the same
    or similar slice sets, when I navigate from one page to another in
    Internet Explorer, the entire page appears to jump by about 10
    pixels on both sides.
    I've checked, and both pages have a center justification.
    Both pages have content of equal width, and when viewed in either
    Dreamweaver or in Firefox, the page appears to be in a consistent
    position on the screen.
    I've compared the code from both pages, and I can't find any
    relevant or significant deviations in code between the two pages.
    Anyone know how I can fix this error?

    Hello,
    The answer is in the code.
    Can you post a link to the pages?
    Thanks,
    Tim

  • Difference between photoshop and illustrator effects?

    Under the effects menu in cs5, what is the difference between photoshop and illustrator effects? when do you use the photoshop ones?
    Thank you.

    The Photoshop effects are copies of similar effects from Photoshop. As such, they can only be applied to raster art, such as that edited in Photoshop. When you apply a Photoshop effect the Illustrator art you apply it to is rasterized in the background and the effect is applied to the rasterized version of the art. If you expand the appearance of anything with a Photoshop effect on it it will be rasterized. The other effects retain all or part of the vector art. When you expand the effect or save a PDF at least some of the original vector art will remain as vectors, although some effects (Drop Shadow, Blur, Feather, Inner Glow, etc.) to add rasterized art to the file.
    The rasterization is non-damaging, in that the original vector, type, or other objets remain fully editable. If you remove the effect the rasterization goes away. There is no dialogue for rasterization resolution in the effect; you set that in Effect > Document Raster Effect Settings.

    iPad apps are designed specifically for the iPad and will not run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. iPhone/iPod apps will run on the iPad, but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the iPad screen (though you get a 2x button which effectively doubles each pixel in both directions so may appear pixelated). There are also 'universal' apps (which have a '+' symbol against them in the store) which have processing in them to recognise the device that they are on and will tailor the display accordingly (so will make use of the iPad's larger screen).

  • Regional Settings differences between 2008 and 2012

    Hi There,
    Can anyone explain why some of the regional setting details have changed with Win 2012?
    Example: Dutch (Belgium) - nl-BE
    The 'Digital Grouping Symbol' has changed from a DOT to a WHITESPACE.
    2008 - €1.000,00 whereas 2012 - €1 000,00
    If the settings are changed on the servers will they persist after OS updates etc?
    Rgds,
    Frank

    Hi Vivian,
    I see no reference in the KB article to modifications for the CET timezone nor any reference to the resolution of culture format info discrepancies.
    A further issue is that the active regional settings on our PRD servers will be set to United States and it would appear that any modification to the Belgium locales (i.e. nl-BE, fr-BE) are not persisted once you switch to United States as the
    active setting.
    The knock on effect of this is that for our PRD web-applications (which are active across many regions), we have to write code to override the OS information. .NET uses the OS info to populate its Culture information.
    Could you confirm if the differences between 2008 and 2012 are the result of a bug or are the changes planned? Based on communication with some of our customers in Belgium, they are of the opinion that the 2008 (and Win 2003) settings are per their expectations.
    I really do not what to have to handle these situations across our application landscape and am sure that other people with globalized applications will also hit problems.

  • Difference between -1 and null in the targettype filed

    Hi
    Could anyone advise what is the difference between -1 and null in the targettype filed in marketing documents?
    For example, in Sales Quotation - Rows (QUT1) table, I found for some open sales quotations, the field is null however the DB help file suggest the default value is -1 so I suppose it should be -1 for open documents.
    Many thanks for your advisory.

    Hi, Qian!
    I investigated that "-1" value appears in targettype field in Sales Quotation Rows (QUT1 table) when you Dublicate a Sales Quotation document (Ctrl + D). And NULL value appears when you create a new document without dublicating.
    In case you want to equal these 2 "empty"-values using T-SQL, you can use ISNULL(targettype, -1) function - this will give you -1 for both the "empty"-values
    HTH!

  • ABST2 - Differences between Assets and G/L accts

    Hi Experts
    We are working on ECC 6.0 and INR is our local currency.
    At the end of FY 2007 by mistake direct postings were made to Dep Fund Account which is a Recon a/c and FY 2007 was closed
    And because of which FI-GL and FI-AA doesnt match by INR 37353.71 (amt posted in above doc) as shown in ABST2
    I've referred SAP notes 104567 & 69225 and found the note 69225 relevant to follow as the difference has not resulted in the current or open years.
    So we have passed direct entry which is exactly the reversal of entry posted above using ABF1 (INR -37353.71)
    After posting the 2nd document, in ABST2 another line has appeared of INR -37353.71. Although the sum for my recon GL is now zero.
    The output of ABST2 is as below now -
    Sc  Acct no.   BusA  Year  SG  1st local difference  LCurr  Doc.no.    Period
    AS  31100                2009               37,353.71-        INR     W004
    AS  31100                2009               37,353.71         INR     W004       999
    When I come out of ABST2 , addition to 1st, error no 2 is also coming which I thought would disappear.
    1.Differences between assets and G/L accts in the balance carried forward
         Message no. MQ555
    2.Differences between assets and G/L accounts at the key date
         Message no. MQ557
    Is still something else needs to be done?
    Or can I move ahead as the summation of the difference is now zero?
    Please suggest.
    Kapil

    We referred to SAP and they suggeted that the tagging of W004 in both the lines means that now there is no error even system prompts it as error.
    So we continued with the transactions and after closing the FY 2009, today when we run ABST2, we dont get any error messages as there is no difference left between Assets & GL.

  • Difference between MBBS and MB5L report.

    All capital inventory till FY-2008-09 was transferred to revenue inventory by movemnt typr 411-Q in MB1B.All the codes those were transferrd are now appearing in MBBS but with zero value. However these codes are appearing in MB5L with value under GL 132006 (for capital items) and having value of 1.08 crores (0.94 crore for imported items and 0.14 crore for revenue items). The GL for all these codes neds to be changed to 132000 (revenue inventory GL) so that in MB5L also these items appear as revenue items.As of today GL of all the codes appearing under GL 132006 are to be changed to 132000 except code 496700086.
    now, changes are reflected in report MBBS but not showing correct information in MB5L report..
    Please guide what is the difference between MBBS and MB5L report.
    Regards

    Hi,
    MBBS gives stock values of "project'" and "sales order" only.
    MB5L gives total stock value .

  • Difference between invoice and debit note

    Hi,
    what is the difference between invoice and a debit note.
    If I underinvoice a customer, should I raise a additional invoice for the difference or shud i raise a debit note. if  i need to raise debit note, then why not invoice or if i need to raise an invoice, then why not a debit note
    regards
    sachin

    Debit note is generally used to issue an invoice for already sold goods w/o physical goods movement involved.
    If raw material prices increases which are utilized in production of Finished goods. then the business will submit the relevant documents as proof at customer.
                  Once Customer is accepted, then price increase effective date will be finalized , Then business issues debit note request for the required material & its converted into debit note. ( all this will be done, based on agreement with the Customer). Generally this scenario is most widely used in Manufacturing / Automobile industry.
    where as, If invoice is created with less price than actual, you dont need to create debit note, instead you can either Cancel this invoice or create Invoice Correction request.
    hope it adds info
