Save jpg or tiff with transparent background

How do you save a jpg image of something (ART) created with a transparent background so that it can be printed on fabric?

AppleWorks doesn't handle transparency well, even using formats such as .gif or .png saved with transparent backgrounds in another application. However, a few years ago I accidentally discovered that if an object is flipped or rotated in AppleWorks, the background will become transparent. The object doesn't even have to be .gif or .png & have transparency.
Once I discovered this, I used GraphicConverter to flip an image horizontally & save it as a PICT. Then I insert the object in my AppleWorks document & flip it back. I use PICT because it is the only graphic format that will retain the native resolution. All other graphic formats are changed to 72 dpi by AppleWorks.
Unfortunately, the last few times I tried this, it no longer worked. For myself, I use Pages for this kind of work now. I handles transparency very well.

Monotone color with transparent background

Is there a way to maintain the transparent background when saving a monotone photo? I need to do a 2-Pantone color job and want the images cut out from the background. Monotone won't allow me to save as a TIFF with transparency.
Any suggestions?

Thanks! That helped me too!

Saving image and layer separately with transparent background

I have a photo with a layer and I am trying to save two images (main photo and layer) with transparent background. I am able to save the main photo with transparent background but somehow not able to save the layer with transparent background despite selecting the option while saving as PNG. Any help will be appreciated?

OK... I'm probably not being clear.
When I import the PDF, I get a typical architect's line drawing as shown below. So the background is displaying as white. In Corel, when you save a GIF or a PNG, you can specify that -everything- that is the 'background colour' is rendered as transparent. IOW: there's no need to erase the 'white' pixels; they are auto-magically converted to transparent.
But in PS (CS4), no matter what I try, the rendered PNG or GIFs show as white, rather than transparent.
Is there a way to have this same behaviour in PS? Or do I first have to use the erase or background erase tools to get rid of the white?

With what program are you working and with what version of the program and on what computer operating system?
I suspect that you are working with some version of Photoshop Elements. If that is correct, then be advised that some how

If Photoshop Elements question, then please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator

Thought....if are creating an image on a transparent background in Photoshop Elements Windows for a Premiere Elements Windows project, then you Save As png or psd.
Please clarify if I have misinterpreted your question.

Want to create an oval vignette in photoshop elements 10 with transparent background for printing w

I am fairly new to PSE and I want to create an oval vignette in Photoshop Elements 10 with transparent background for printing on white paper using MS Publisher. Using the white background on inverse selection makes a slight line impression and either it should have a defined "frame" or nothing.
Appreciate any guidance.

Try with the Elliptical marquee tool:
On the tool's option bar set feather 25-40 px (experiment)
Drag out the Ellipse to embrace the object
Go to Layer>new>layer via copy, or CTRL+J
Your selection should fade out as a vignette and be surrounded by transparency
Save this layer via File>save for web, select PNG-24, and tick "Transparency"

Image with transparent background shows up with a white background in ID

Amateur needs help.
I have a copy of a logo with a transparent background. I made the (white) background transparent in PS by creating a layer from background and then selecting the white color in the background and deleting it. This has always worked in the past. But when I place this image into ID, it shows up with a white background. I have tried saving as a PSD, TIF, JPG, etc. I cannot get it to work.
I normally research these things until I find an answer, but I am on a tight deadline. Thanks!

I totally forgot to put that in my post. Yes, I am putting logos with transparent backgrounds in front of colored rectangles. That's how I noticed that this one logo is showing up with a white background. The weird thing is that the other two logos are fine. I did find a different version of this logo and this one works fine. The one that works fine is a JPG and the one that shows up with a white background is a JPG.

Image with transparent background changes surrounding fill color when PMS...

Hello.
I have a .PSD image I'm using in InDesign CS3. It's a greyscale image with a transparent background. When I bring it into InDesign and set the background color of the image box to a Pantone and then print it, the PMS color within the area of the .PSD image size changes color compared to the rest of the page. But, when the same document is printed, but with "All Spot to Process" via the Ink Manager, the page prints fine. I get the same results on a number of different Canon and Xerox proofing printers. I have uploaded a PDF to my web server showing an example of the results I'm getting the PDF can be found here:
http://theboyk.net/temp/PMSvsCMYK.pdf
The first page is the document printed normally. You can see the color change in the green (Pantone Green). The second page is the same document printed with "All Spot to Process" via Ink Manager.
Does anyone know why this happens when I leave it as printing a spot color?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

How to use/create icons with transparent background ?

I would like to use icons with transparent background on JButtons, but I can't find how to do it. Until now, I've been using the ImageIcon class to create icons from GIF images. These images were created with MSPaint (sorry, I don't know what I could have used instead of that). Here is how I create my buttons :
bPencil = new JButton(new ImageIcon("Pencil.GIF"));What could I do to make the background transparent and/or what software could I use instead of M$Paint ?
P.S. : sorry if my question seems silly, but I'm a newbie in Java coding...

Transparent images are GIF (256 colours) and PNG (true-colour, half transparency).
You can store the image with your code, *.class files. You then even can deliver all inside a clickable, executable .jar file.
This kind of usage is called "resource," and hence use getResource like this:
    java.net.URL imgURL = getClass().getResource("pencil.gif");
    ImageIcon icon = null;
    if (imgURL != null) {
        icon = new ImageIcon(imgURL, description);
    }You can use paths.
There exist versions of MSPaint that easily loose their transparent colour on saving.
For GIFs try internet palettes, or try to save as PNG (recent version).
Start with a transparent image from elsewhere.

How can I export a file with transparent background?

Hi all,
I know InDesign doesn't allow to export a PNG file, but I need my file to be in image file format with transparent background.
I'm still learning so I am stuck here. How can I export a file with transparent background?

If you can't get the PNG file export to work, you can export a pdf and open it in Photoshop, from there you can save it as whatever you like.

Photos with transparent background weird issue in album

There is something very strange happening
What I did
I saved two images that had transparent background
When I view it in my photo album the thumbnail shows the image but for the "background" it is some other random photo that isn't even in my camera roll! It just shows up only when I save these images with transparent background. This happened for two images and the photos showing up are different (from the same night because I can see who is in it).
When I view these images larger, the background photos do not appear , so it is very strange
I took a screen shot of this too and would like to send to apple support

I would not really expect AppleTv to handle transparency in an image, though maybe it does and this is some kind of bug.
I would regard transparency handling as a non-basic feature to be honest, one that the majority of users will not expect to use or use.
Does iPhoto handle transparency properly?
Send feedback to:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html
It may be something they can add fairly easily, but it may not either.
Don't expect a reply from that link.

Illustrator cc image looks pixelated after saving with transparent background

as the title states; image looks pixelated after saving with transparent background...
i created a logo in adobe illustrator cc and i wanted to saved it for web in order to be able to copy and paste the logo where ever I wanted but the image looks extremely pixelated after saving as an png, and for web. Is there a solution for this?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!!
Jon

What DPI did you save as:
You should always save as 300dpi, then you can always reduce the size as needed.
Another thing, don't copy and paste, that always causes that Problem.
In Acrobat you should open Tools Menu click on Content Editing the Add Image.
Then click on image and choose Properties and place where you want and size as you desire.

Superimposed jpg image comes with unwanted background

hi.
I cut out an object from a jpg image and made a new jpg image with transparent background. Tested it on image editing program - the background is indeed transparent.
However, when i try to superimpose the image with transparent background on a video in PrE, the image is shown with a white background.
How do i remove that unwanted white background?

Great news!
In many Image editors, Transparency is not clearly deliniated, and it just looks white. With display settings in Photoshop, Transparency will be shown as a checkerboard pattern, but when one does a Save_As to JPEG, that clearly goes white, alerting the user to the lack of Transparency in the JPEG.
Good luck, and happy editing.

How to create image slice with transparent background without white halo around?

Hi, I want to make slice image with transparent background. I set the slice option background color to my background color. But when the image is on my html page set against the same background color, it has white halo around:
How can I get rid of the white halo?
I need the slice image to have transparent background and not have a color background because it's going on a rollover button with the background change. I don't want it to look like this on rollover:

>it looks to me like you built it with that "halo" to start with.
No, I didn't put in the halo myself. The shape is a character from the Webdings font. It's set to some darker fill color and set on a transparent background. Photoshop put the white halo there after "Save For Web".
> Make your graphic on a transparent background and Save for Web
I did exactly that, see:
I set the slice background to my color. I try the Matte option and come out the same with white halo.
It seems I'm not making Photoshop antialias to my background color, instead Photoshop just antialias to white.
What else do I need to do?

Animated gif with transparent background

When I import in Keynote an animated gif with transparent background. The background becomes white. I did the following tests:
If I extract a single image from the animated gif and import it in keynote the background is actually transparent but it becomes white when I import the whole gif.
I also checked with other applications (NeoOffice) and the animated gif does come out with a transparent background.
Do I do something wrong in Keynote ?

This has been an ongoing issue for me since I switched from Powerpoint to Keynote. Most of the animated gifs with transparent backgrounds that I used with Powerpoint are no longer transparent in Keynote. You may want to search for those earlier threads on this topic...
To summarize: I've had to open up my animated gifs in After Effects and use the Color Key effect to restore transparency, with mixed success.
Good luck!
