Temporary solution for PSDs and Illustrator 64 bit

I found a temporary solution to the problem of placing or opening PSDs on 64bit computers in Illustrator CS3 and CS4.
Right click the icon for Illustrator and select Properties /
Compatibility
Then select Run this program in compatibility mode for
Windows XP (Service Pack 2)
It doesn't affect the other programs - only temporarily changes the screen for Illustrator only.
I can now open and place layered PSDs directly into Illustrator again.

In Need of a developer for Photoshop and Illustrator plugins

I am in need of a developer interested in developing plugins for Photoshop and Illustrator for a specific industry of Textiles and Fashion. Please contact me if you are a developer with experience in plugin development. [email protected]

Hmmm... I'm using JSF but it's my first project so I don't really know it's powers.
I instantiated all classes that will eventually populate the combo box (through reflection) and now I'm trying to find one which of the objects did the user select.
Would it be a problem for you to give me at least a rough scatch of what I should do?
I tried it like this:
in my managed bean:
public HtmlSelectOneMenu getProductsMenu() {
        //instantiate and populate the list of products (prodlist)
        for (Product p : prodlist){
            optionlist.add(new SelectItem(p, p.getName()));
        final UISelectItems items = new UISelectItems();
        items.setValue(optionlist);
        productsMenu.getChildren().add(items);
        return productsMenu;
    }and in my JSP:
<h:selectOneMenu binding="#{managedBean.productsMenu}" />but then, in the bean, when I try:
((Product)productsMenu.getValue())I get a Class cast exception. it says it can't can't cast String to Product...
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!

Annoture - Metadata Bridging Solution for Aperture and iView

Aperture and iView users:
I just released Annoture, a metadata bridging solution for Aperture and iView MediaPro! With Annoture, you’re just a click away from sharing metadata between these two popular image management and cataloguing applications. Spend more time working with your decisive moments than worrying about double-entry and incomplete metadata!
Annoture lets you transfer annotations from iView MediaPro catalogs to Aperture projects and albums and back. This two-way transfer of IPTC and metadata information means you are not tied to any one application for your image management and workflow needs. Annoture also features a modular interface that can be extended to support additional applications in the future.
http://www.tow.com/software/annoture/
Users of Aperture and iView can download a fully-functional version of Annoture. The unregistered version will occasionally display a reminder to register, and all images processed in Aperture by Annoture will have a custom “Annotated with Annoture!” tag added. You can remove these items with the full version after purchasing and entering your license code.
Enjoy!

Unbelievable no solution for FMS3 and FLVPlayback???

I've spent the past 2 days scouring Google and dozens (easily over 100) websites
trying to find an answer to something that people do every day!
I am absolutely shocked that this info is not available anywhere online.
A simple FMS3 and AS3 and RTMP and FLVPlayback example....
totaly not simple and not possible to find!!
I try every possible combination:
import fl.video.*;
VideoPlayer.iNCManagerClass = fl.video.NCManagerNative;
myVideo.autoPlay = true;
myVideo.isLive = true;
myVideo.isLive = false;
myVideo.source = "rtmp://localhost/appName/videos/flvName.flv";
myVideo.source = "rtmp://localhost/appName/streams/flvName.flv";
myVideo.source = "rtmp://localhost/appName/streams/videos/flvName.flv";
myVideo.source = "rtmp://localhost/appName/flvName.flv";
none is working!!
i did not find any working simple solution for:
FMS3 and AS3 and RTMP and FLVPlayback
anywere on the web
only for:
FMS3 and AS3 and RTMP and Video and NetStream
if someone could bring "salvation" to this required important issue
i will be so thankfull
cheinan

Janaki L thanks a lot for your replay
i think i know where the problam come from
its from point number 8 in your raplay:
8. Make sure you have a publisher connected to your 'server' using the 'appname'
and streaming a live stream with the name 'streamname'
I thought i do not need a publisher to be connected to my appname in my server.
i thought FLVPlayback is doing the netConnection and start streaming the flv
that are already published and sitting on the server.
Is it not possible for the user that use swf with the FLVPlayback to make a netConnection
by ac3 code or some other wey and the FLVPlayback will use that connection to play the flv for that user
without third party connected publisher?
If not - maybe i can use HTTP to let the FLVPlayback play the flv for the user
but that bring me to other problem:
my localhost is at:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\
the flv is at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications\appName\streams\videos\flvName.flv
what will be the http url for the flv?

Best file format for PS and Illustrator files to be placed into ID

I'm writing a proposal using InDesign. It will be output to PDF for circulation among the team members; I imagine they will view it on a variety of screens and some will print it out on various desktop printers.
I have a variety of images, all in color, done in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator that need to be placed into the propsal. Sizes range from 5x7 to 2x2. Some are quite complex with fine detail.
I've just viewed the proposal in ID Overprint Preview / High Quality Display. The images don't look great. Lots of ragged lines.
I usually save everything to JPEG with a quality of 80-90...but that is just a habit, I have no reason or justification for this practice.
I'm wondering if I should go back into the original ID, PS and AI files and resave them as something else before and then place them again.
Does anyone have any recommmendations or thoughts to offer?
I'm using CS4 on a MAC. My computer is a little bit underpowered for the project at hand, but I'm willing to put up with a bit of slow performance and lag if it results in a better end product.

Jagged lines is a hallmark of low resolution, not file type, or a lower quality screen preview than you think you are using. Check the Display performace settings again to be sure they really are correct, and if they're set to allow object level settings, you'll need to verify that each object is also set correctly.
Beond that, saving as .jpeg is always destructive. For the web, that's fine, but for print you should never use anything, in my opinion, but the highest quality settings for saving jpegs, and I advise again using jpeg at all. If you image is all raster data (pixels) save as .psd or .tif. If it has live type or other vector content, save as Photoshop PDF. In Illustrator save as .ai or PDF with Illustrator editing capability. If you change the extension of the Photoshop PDFs to PDP they will open in Photoshop instead of Acrobat when you use Edit Original.
As I said, the jaggies are a hallmark of low resolution. We often have people tell us that the file is 300 ppi, but it turns out that's at some very small dimension and the imaga has been scaled up in ID. Both the Links panel and Info panel can show you the resolution information for your images. There will be two numbers, actual and effective. Effective resolution is the only number that matters. For printing on a desktop printer I like to see a minimum of 150 ppi, but you might get away with as low as 90 for a non-critical image. For press 300 ppi would be the rule of thumb, and dropping below 200 is asking for trouble.
How the file looks in ID is not nearly as informative as how a PDF exported from the file looks, or prints. For a high-res image in ID you are still looking at a lower resolution screen preview, not the actual image as it will be output. Export settings that downsample too far or apply too much compression to reduce file size can also turn a good document into a clunker.

Pls help putting together the BEST SOLUTION for PP and AE CS4

Hi guys
I was tasked to put together the best machine (machines) for video editing / rendering .. money is not an issue.
My client is a TV broadcasting network and they do lots of videos everyday .. They want to render their work as FAST as possible because sometimes they have tight deadlines and rendering and re rendering (if there are mistakes) has cost them .. so now they're serious about getting the best technology to achieve best rendering time possible, but in a bit of practical sense of course.. i mean there's no sense spending 1000USD or more for a piece of technology that offers under 10 second faster rendering only ..
What they do and want
- edit/put together/ sequence lots of videos constantly, under premiere cs3 (will upgrade to cs4 on the new machine)
- use affter effects for some effects and 3D stuffs.. but not that much.. but increasingly as time goes by and their video editors get more affter effects training..
- needs really really fast rendering!! Right now it takes them typically 1-2 hours to render stuffs, and what to cut this time by half or more..
Existing Setups on work stations:
Intel QuadCore (Q6600, i7, Q9550, Xeon x3220, and the likes)
4GB RAM DDR2 1066mhz
Highend motherboards
GeForce 9500GT , 9800GT, and GTX 260 216sp
GSKILL Falcon 64GB SSD Drive as primary
1TB Western Digital BLACK edition drives for storage
Software:
Windows XP 32 bit
Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 (80% of all their work done here)
AE CS3
etc..
Running NOD32 Antivirus
I am an somewhat of an expert in Hardware and stuff, i build custom PC's machines most of my life but i have limiited knowledge on optimizing hardware for VIDEO EDITING stuffs.. so i turn to you all.
I do understand that w/ video editing CPU is the most important, followed by RAM, and ofcourse by HDD for disc caches and stuff.. and where videocard may come to an advantage as well. and normally i'd suggest the fastest components available . i7 , extreme processors, skulltrail dual quad setups perhaps? RAID 0 SSD Drive? etc.. but I do not know w/c gives the most advantage, and w/c is a waste of money..
I also read about quadro cards offering really big performance improvements using CUDA tech etc..
again im not the expert at this type of requirment.. so i need your advises..
with unlimitted PRACTICAL budget given to me to come up w/ a solution I initially thought a rendering farm would be the solution, but upon reading around it seems there's no rendering farm solution for PP CS4.. just the adobe after effects part.. so i had to go back to the drawing board and suggest really powerful work stations instead..and perhaps have them migrate to 64bit OS for that "extra" performance.. i myself am on win7 64bit and it's looking mighty good.
1) is this the right move?
2) is it still worth it to put together rendering farm for AE renders only? or might as well concentrate funds on the machines/workstations?
Also along the PRACTICALITY LINE, would it be practical to maintain all the existing machines, and instead build a manned RENDERING MACHINE w/ PP and AE (basically desktop or Server if they are faster at rendering w/ the best specs for the purpose etc) where they can just throw the workload to some guy there for rendering? Atleast the editors can continue using the workstations while the rendering machine guy is at work? and even perhaps setup a gigabit lan network where the RENDERING MACHINES can dynamically pull the work load via the network , not needing to transfer the files to the rendering machine first ? etc
as you can see im not only looking for the best machine, but the best STRATEGY for my client.
Good suggestions would be much appreciated.
regards to all

in a nut shell no. if you do not have to "Share" then Avid is pointless Adobe is a far better answer.
Avid solutions still need a computer. The Mojo.Nitris are a joke and Avid no longer provides computers even the Symphany comes with your choice of Apple Mac Pro or HP 800. (Dual Xeon)
there are better "hardware" answers that what Avid sells for Adobe. Decklink, Aja to name a few.
if you have to share then you have no choice. this is the one area Abode does not lead.
renders have to do primarily with 2 things CPU power (Xeon will render faster than single i7)
and Drives. the faster your drive set up the faster the render. Memory does play a part and so does the video card depending on what codec and to what
it also depends on WHAT you are rendering and from what for the HDDs.
without knowing your work flow format and codec its impossible to suggest something.
in terms of rendering
Core i7
Dual Xeon (faster unless still doing DV/HDV thru firewire)
Sonnet raid array

Temporary solution for DNG support under 10.5.5

Those of you who use DNG files (ie. because you are using different brand of camera's like I do) certainly have noticed that DNG became unsupported after their upgrade to MacOSX 10.5.5.
A temporary solution that worked for me can be found here:
http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,2353.0.html
Hope Apple and the Aperture team will fix this problem asap.

So you need to turn on the bg mode(2.4GHz) or a mode(5.8GHz)! Try it.
do you have any detailed instruction of this?

New laptop spec suggestions for Photoshop and Illustrator

Hi Everyone!
As I am sifting through the posts regarding laptops - I figured I'd post my own as my requirements are a little different. I am looking to buy a new windows laptop. I work with Photoshop and Illustrator and basic office programs like outlook, word and excel. I have CS2 but will upgrade with the new laptop purchase - so running CS5.5 (or better) Photoshop and Illustrator is required. I may or may not buy the whole Creative Suite as I only use these and Acrobat. I want to spend what is required to get the job done well - not more - but I don't want to be cheap either – my laptop needs to work well & not hamper my workflow. This will be my only computer. Being efficient is key. I use Adobe to do graphics for apparel: (embroideries, prints, logos, etc.) and small business (logos, print media, etc.). I work in actual size – so a lot of what I do is on a 20 x 30 art board. I do not work on videos – just print media and static artwork. Suggestions on the specs I will need and/or actual laptop models would be great. Thanks so much for your help - it is all so confusing!

File- open displays only generic icons for psd and raw

Following a hard drive crash, I had to reinstall Photoshop CS5. I've updated to the latest version (12.0.1) and updated my NVIDA GEForce 8600 driver to the latest from Dell. This is on a Dell XPS 410, 4 GB memory and hundreds of gigs of hard drive space. When I use the File-->Open menu and dialog to look for images to use, while JPG and most TIF icons are thumbnail icons, the CR2, CRW, PSD and DNG icons are all generic. There is no problem in Bridge or in LightRoom. Opening the image in Photoshop doesn't seem to help.
While I obviously have options, when I just need to go looking quickly for an image I know is there, this makes it difficult to find. What can I do to get those previews back?
Thanks in Advance

$indesign folder for 64 and 32 bit

I'm trying to include both 64 and 32 builds of C++ plugin into zxp package. Here is my mxi configuration:

        <product familyname="InDesign" version="9" required="true" />
    </products>
    <files>
        
        <file products="InDesign32" platform="win" minVersion="9" source="static/" destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins/My-Plugin"/>

    </files>
</macromedia-extension>
I'm packing it with CS5 Extension Manager, as CC doesn't have an option to pack extension anymore. Package is being generated just fine.
When I'm trying to install the package with CC Extension Manager it throws an error, saying that DB could not be updated. But still, all files are copied as desired, except 32 bit inDesign has plugin from 64 bit version... Looks like $indesign folder is always mapped to 32 version and .pln file get's overwriten.
Is it possible to package 64 and 32 bit plugins into same zxp package? Should I use some specific package software (instead on Extension Manager CS5)?

Thank you for your help.
I fixed “InDesign32” -> “InDesign”, but it did not solve the main issue.
Furthermore, for an experiment I completely removed section with 64 from mxi, like this:
<macromedia-extension
        name="Plugin-Name"
        requires-restart="true"
        version="1.0.0">
    <author name="My-Name"/>
    <products>
        <product familyname="InDesign" version="9" required="true" />
    </products>
    <files>
        
        <file products="InDesign" platform="win" minVersion="9" source="static/" destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins/My-Plugin"/>
        <file products="InDesign" platform="win" minVersion="9" file-type="plugin" source="win/cc/x86/MyPlugin.pln" destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins/My-Plugin"/>
        <file products="InDesign" platform="win" minVersion="9" source="win/cc/x86/(MyPlugin Resources)/" destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins/My-Plugin"/>
    </files>
</macromedia-extension>
I didn't get any error message from Extension Manager CC and plugin is now listed in installed plugins. But it was installed for both 32 and 64 bit versions of inDesign.
Same work vice versa - if I leave only 64 version it still get's installed to both 64 and 32 inDesign.

Patch for 64bit and 32 bit

hi hussein/helios,
We are about to start implementing an EBS R12.1.1 , Can u give me notes on what are the latest patches recommended on this latest release(e.g family pack, one-off-pack, CUP, RUP, etc,etc). My boss does not like to implement it since she said it is still "full" of bugs , she recommended R12.0.6 . But the client is insisting on the latest R12.1.1 because they said its the version Oracle delivered to them and what they paid for. By the way the server OS is 64-bit. Are all patches applicable to both 64 and 32 bit OS and EBS?
Thanks a lot
MsK

Hi,
If the application is 64-bit, then download/apply the 64-bit version of the patch. If the 64-bit does not exist and you have the 32-bit version, you can apply this one.
Regards,
Hussein
