Splitting and tiling in Illustrator

i need to find a way to slice an image (jpeg) into 9 or 16 or more equal parts and then convert to PDF so  it can be printerd and that its ends up looking like a large poster..
that can be repasted together...also would be nice if each image spliced would have guides on all 4 corners so that the repasting would line up perfectly.
Am i asking to much....
RCFMitch
here is an example of what the final product should look like..
See attachment...

you create your document to size it will be when pasted together. Then you go to View>Show Tiling so you cane see the tiling
then you go to the print dialog and a select a paper size one that divides the document evenly vertically and horizontally it should be smaller than the actually paper you will be printing it on, oh yes make certain you have adobe pdf selected as the printer.
Then you will see the tiling in the print you may have to make a custom page size in the page set up with no borders to get the tiling to work.
then turn on trim marks in the print dialog. then print to pdf and you will have end up with a multipage pdf. It does sometimes require a little adjustment as everything has to be consider the page size must divide the page evenly and no borders are probably also require to prevent the tile from displacing.

  • StringTokenizer vs. split and empty strings -- some clarification please?

    Hi everybody,
    I posted a question that was sort of similar to this once, asking if it was best to convert any StringTokenizers to calls to split when parsing strings, but this one is a little different. I rarely use split, because if there are consecutive delimiters, it gives empty strings in the array it returns, which I don't want. On the other hand, I know StringTokenizer is slower, but it doesn't give empty strings with consecutive delimiters. I would use split much more often if there was a way to use it and not have to check every array element to make sure it isn't the empty string. I think I may have misunderstood the javadoc to some extent--could anyone explain to me why split causes empty strings and StringTokenizer doesn't?
    Thanks,
    Jezzica85

    Because they are different?
    Tokenizers are designed to return tokens, whereas split is simply splitting the String up into bits. They have different purposes
    and uses to be honest. I believe the results of previous discussions of this have indicated that Tokenizers are slightly (very
    slightly and not really meaningfully) faster and tokenizers do have the option of return delimiters as well which can be useful
    and is a functionality not present in just a straight split.
    However. split and regex in general are newer additions to the Java platform and they do have some advantages. The most
    obvious being that you cannot use a tokenizer to split up values where the delimiter is multiple characters and you can with
    split.
    So in general the advice given to you was good, because split gives you more flexibility down the road. If you don't want
    the empty strings then yes just read them and throw them away.

  • When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open "Adobe Illustrator CS6" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime."

    When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open “Adobe Illustrator CS6” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime." it also says "Click “More Info…” to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website." When i click more info it transfers me to an apple page which never loads, its just a blank page. I downloaded Java SE 6 like it says it needs but it did nothing. All of my other Adobe programs such as bridge, dreamweaver, lightroom, Photoshop, indesign, and flash all work except for illustrator. What can I do to fix this?

    Go to Apple and look for the Java for OSX 2014-001 link. Download from there and install it.

  • Unicode export:Table-splitting and package splitting

    Hi SAP experts,
    I know there are lot of forums related to this topic, but I have some new questions and hence posting a new thread.
    We are in the process of doing unicode conversion in our landscape(CRM 7.0 system based on NW 7.01) and we are running on AIX 6.1 and DB2 9.5. The database size is around 1.5 TB and hence, we want to go in for optimization for export and import in order to reduce the downtime.As a part of the process, we have tried to do table-splitting and parallel export-import to reduce the downtime.
    However, we are having some doubts whether this table-splitting has actually worked in our scenario,as the export has exeucted for nearly 28 hours.
    The steps followed by us :
    1.) Doing the export preparation using SAPINST
    2.) Doing table splitting preparation, by creating a table input file having entries in the format <tablename>%<No.of splits>.Also, we have used the latest R3ta file and the dbdb6slib.o(belonging to version 7.20 even though our system is on 7.01) using SAPINST.
    3.) Starting with the export using SAPINST.
    some observations and questions:
    1.) After completion of tablesplitting preparation, there were .WHR files that were generated for each of the tables in DATA directory of export location. However, how many .WHR files should be created and on what basis are they created?
    2.) I will take an example of a table PRCD_CLUST(cluster table) in our environment, which we had split. We had 29 *.WHR files that were created for this particular table. The number of splits given for this table was 36 and the table size is around 72 GB.Also, we noticed that the first 28 .WHR files for this table, had lots of records but the last 29th .WHR file, had only 1 record. But we also noticed that, the packages/splits for the 1st 28 splits were created quite fast but the last one,29th one took a long time(serveral hours) to get completed.Also,lots of packages were generated(around 56) of size 1 GB each for this 29th split. Also, there was only one R3load which was running for this 29th split, and was generating packages one by one.
    3.) Also,Our question here is that is there any thumb rule for deciding on the number of splits for a table.Also, during the export, are there any things that need to be specified, while giving the inputs when we use table splitting,in the screen?
    4.) Also, what exactly is the difference between table-splitting and package-splitting? Are they both effective together?
    If you have any questions and or need any clarifications and further inputs, please let me know.
    It would be great, if we could get any insights on this whole procedure, as we know a lot of things are taken care by SAPINST itself in the background, but we just want to be certain that we have done the right thing and this is the way it should work.

    Hi,
    First of all please ignore my very first response ... i have accidentally posted a response to some other thread...sorry for that 
    Now coming you your questions...
    > 1.) Can package splitting and table-splitting be used together? If yes or no, what exactly is the procedure to be followed. As I observed that, the packages also have entries of the tables that we decided to split. So, does package splitting or table-splitting override the other, and only one of the two can be effective at a time?
    Package splitting and table splitting works together, because both serve a different purpose
    My way of doing is ...
    When i do package split i choose packageLimit 1000 and also split out the tables (which i selected for table split)  into seperate package (one package per table). I do it because that helps me to track those table.
    Once the above is done i follow it up with the R3ta and wheresplitter for those tables.
    Followed by manual migration monitor to do export/import , as mentioned in the previous reply above you need to ensure you sequenced you package properly ... large tables are exported first , use sections in the package list file , etc
    > 2.) If you are well versed with table splitting procedure, could you describe maybe in brief the exact procedure?
    Well i would say run R3ta (it will create multiple select queries) followed by wheresplitter (which will just split each of the select into multiple WHR files)  ...  
    Best would go thought some document on table spliting and let me know if you have specific query. Dont miss the role of hints file.
    > 3.) Also, I have mentioned about the version of R3ta and library file in my original post. Is this likely to be an issue?Also, is there a thumb rule to decide on the no.of splits for a table.
    Rule is use executable of the kernel version supported by your system version. I am not well versed with 7.01 and 7.2 support ... to give you an example i should not use 700 R3ta on 640 system , although it works.
    >1.) After completion of tablesplitting preparation, there were .WHR files that were generated for each of the tables in DATA directory of export location. However, how many .WHR files should be created and on what basis are they created?
    If you ask for 10 split .... you will get 10 splits or in some case 11 also, the reason might be the field it is using to split the table (the where clause). But not 100% sure about it.
    > 2) I will take an example of a table PRCD_CLUST(cluster table) in our environment, which we had split. We had 29 *.WHR files that were created for this particular table. The number of splits given for this table was 36 and the table size is around 72 GB.Also, we noticed that the first 28 .WHR files for this table, had lots of records but the last 29th .WHR file, had only 1 record. But we also noticed that, the packages/splits for the 1st 28 splits were created quite fast but the last one,29th one took a long time(serveral hours) to get completed.Also,lots of packages were generated(around 56) of size 1 GB each for this 29th plit. Also, there was only one R3load which was running for this 29th split, and was generating packages one by one.
    Not sure why you got 29 split when you asked for 36, one reason might be the field (key) used for split didn't have more than 28 unique records. I dont know how is PRCD_CLUST  split , you need to check the hints file for "key". One example can be suppose my table is split using company code, i have 10 company codes so even if i ask for 20 splits i will get only 10 splits (WHR's).
    Yes the 29th file will always have less records, if you open the 29th WHR you will see that it has the "greater than clause". The 1st and the last WHR file has the "less than" and "greater than" clause , kind of a safety which allows you to prepare for the split even before you have downtime has started. This 2 WHR's ensures  that no record gets missed, though you might have prepared your WHR files week before the actual migration.
    > 3) Also,Our question here is that is there any thumb rule for deciding on the number of splits for a table.Also, during the export, are there any things that need to be specified, while giving the inputs when we use table splitting,in the screen?
    Not aware any thumb rule. First iteration you might choose something like 10 for 50 GB , 20 for 100 GB. If any of the tables overshoots the window. They you can give a try by  increase or decrease the number of splits for the table. For me couple of times the total export/import  time have improved by reducing the splits of some tables (i suppose i was oversplitting those tables).

  • Fontproblems and fontcaches in Illustrator CS4 and CS5

    Hello all,
    I've been having a serious and severe problem using Ilustrator and fonts.
    As this is a very complex problem to explain, I'll try to make it easy to understand.
    First I'll tell you the specifications and software used:
    Imac 27 inch running  MAC OS X 10.6.7 with follow software:
    Illustrator CS4 + Illustrator CS5, both installed
    Fontreserve (running a central server and macs connect through a MAC-client) http://www.extensis.com/en/support/font-reserve.jsp
    So we use an external third party fontsoftware to manage and activate our fonts used in Illustrator.
    We only have the required system fonts installed on our systems.
    We recently ran in a big issue concerning fonts within Illustrator.
    I'll try to explain what the problem really is ...
    So normally we boot up Illustrator and we activate our fonts in fontreserve.
    The fonts get loaded in Illustrator. So that does work like it should.
    But the problem begins when we deactivate fonts.
    Font reserve does deactivate them and in Illustrator the deactivated fonts are gone or so it seems ...
    After a restart, I only start Illustrator. So our client fontreserve stays closed.
    I opened the job I worked on before the restart and Illustrator opens the document and loads the fonts.
    You read it right, Illustrator does find all the fonts which, before the restart, were deactivated.
    Where does he gets those fonts?
    So I started to investigate and tried a couple of things.
    1) I physically moved the fontreserve-plugin out Illustrator so it will not be loaded on startup.
    That didn't fix it because Illustrator still finds the fonts.
    2) I physically plugged out the network cable to be sure Illustrator could not contact our fontserver.
    Sadly he still did find the fonts.
    3) I used "Tweak Freak" to clear my fontcaches. I also searched for "AdobeFnt" to clean out the cache from Adobe itself.
    This did not work either.
    4) I tried opening the document again but this time in CS5. And guess what? Illustrator CS5 asks for all the fonts that are missing, which is correct because not one font has been activated.
    Strangly enough I decided to reopen Illustrator CS4 (Illustrator CS5 still beiing open as well), and suddenly Illustrator CS4 asks for the fonts too?
    A minute ago he still found all the fonts and after opening Illustrator CS5, it does not ...
    So Adobe what is the connection between Illustrator CS4 and CS5?
    And where does Illustrator store its fontcache?
    It would be nice to run a script on shutdown te delete all possible fontcaches.
    So after spending a couple of hours fixing this problem, it seems that I still don't quite understand where the problem lies.
    I'm hoping you can.
    As this is an urgent matter, I hope to get an answer or support as soon as possible.
    Thanks in advance.

    You should be able to see what files Adobe Illustrator has open by using the Activity Monitor.app application.
    To do so, open the Activity Monitor application (it's in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder). Locate Adobe Illustrator in the list and then double-click on it. This should open up a new window like shown in the image below:
    Switch to the Open Files and Ports tab, and it should list every open file that Illustrator is using.

  • Can we split and fetch the records in Database Adapter

    Hi,
    I designed a Database Adapter to fetch the records from oracle Database. Some time, the Database Adapter need to fetch around 5000, or 10,000 records in single shot. In that case my BPEL process is choking and getting error as
    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space at java.util.Arrays.copyOf(Arrays.java:2882) at java.lang.AbstractStringBuilder.expandCapacity(AbstractStringBuilder.java:100)
    Could someone help me to resolve this?
    In Database Adapter can we split and fetch the records, if number of records more then 1000.
    ex. First 100 rec as one set and next 100 as 2nd set like this.
    Thank you.

    You can send the records as batches useing the debatching feature of db adapter. Refer documentation for implementation details.

    I am getting a single file syndicated from MDM and in XI If I use message mapping to do 1:n split in the message mapping, can I use it with Abap Proxies? As per the link below, XI adapter is not present in the list..We are on PI 7.0 SP14. Thank you..

    Thank you for any suggestion..

    Hi Thanujja,
    If you see the message from Raj, I dont think we can split the messages for the proxy. This is beacause the splitting of messages take place at the Adapter Level only for the adapters on the Java stack.
    As suggested by Guru, you can try splitting the messages in the inbound proxy instead of using a BPM, in that way you can acheive good performance.

  • BPM Split and Merge

    Hi...
       I want to do scenario like file split and merge using BPM.
    for that i have used,
    1.Receive
    2.Transformation(1:N)
    3.Block(ForEach)
    4.Control
    5.EndBlock
    6.Transformation(N:1)
    7.Send.
    while executing the scenario, the message is going to the queue. In that it is showing the status as "Running".
    can you please tell if i did wrong in my scenario?

    > 1.Receive
    > 2.Transformation(1:N)
    > 3.Block(ForEach)
    > 4.Control
    > 5.EndBlock
    > 6.Transformation(N:1)
    > 7.Send.
    U are using an empty infinite block and hence it is in running state always. You dont need a block at all. after 1:n transformation, use the n:1 transformation and send. I know you must be doing a sample scenario. In reality you will have a send step usually for sending to another system line by line. That when you will need a block.

  • Why can't I copy and paste from Illustrator to Flash?

    I have this silly but frustrating problem. I've drawn a
    series of objects in Illustrator and have copied and pasted many of
    them into separate frames in Flash and all of a sudden they won't
    paste. There are 3 objects I'm trying to paste onto each frame and
    2 of them will paste, but 1 won't. I don't have anything locked and
    I have no clipping masks in Illustrator. They will copy and paste
    in Illustrator. I've tried copy and pasting them separately, I've
    tried opening a new Flash document and pasting, I've tried
    restarting my computer. Does this sound like just another freak
    thing or does anyone have any ideas? Is there some keyboard
    shortcut I might have bumped in Flash to change some hidden
    setting...? But then why is it just 1 of the 3 objects that won't
    paste?
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    I think I tried all the options and none worked. Even so, the clipboard options say "Clipboard on Quit". That sounds like it has nothing to do with between active programs.
    I'm able to paste from CS5 TO CC though.

  • Splitting and Collecting Messages

    Hi,
    I have a scenario in which I get a message from SAP. In this message their are multiple item structures and 1 header structure. Now I have to sent these items to a WS seperately and collect the messages  from the WS response in one message with a header.
    Something like:
    Receive Message -> split message (message mapping) -> send all to WS / receive response for everyone -> collect messages from response in a new message -> send the new message to another WS
    How can I do this in BPM?

    Hi Chris,
    Your design should be like this:
    Start --> Receive --> Transform1 (Do the split and multimapping) -->  Send Step1 (Synchronous) --> Send 2 (Send Response from send1 to the output) --> Stop.
