Text fades mess up when exporting to AVI

Hi,
I'm doing some pretty simpe text fades in flash by changing the alpha from 100% to 0% for a piece of text.
This works fine in the SWF export, but when I export to AVI the text corrupts (shifts, expands and looks interlaced) during the fade portion.
I've tried doing this with a brightness shift, and even ticking he "cache as bitmap".
I tried exporting as 32bit movie with alpha. That stops the corruption, but now there's a flicker juse before the fade that's not there in the SWF!
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using Flash Professional CS5 by the way.
Many thanks!

Another option is to do a screen capture. Lots of choice in software.
Google "screen capture software" for more info.
Best wishes,
Adninjastrator

No Audio When Exporting to AVI

I spent yesterday cutting up an m4v file into smaller files that I then exported to AVIs. I did about four of them and had no trouble. Today I get back to the office and try and do it again, and when I export, there is no sound. I have been exporting just using the defaults MS AVI defaults and have made sure that export audio is checked.
Does anyone have any suggestions for this novice? Any and all help is most appreciated.
Regards,
Andy

Everything looks good on your screen-cap.
What Harm was referring to was that the trail does not support anything MPEG - nothing. The issue is that Adobe would have to pay a royalty to MainConcept for their MPEG CODEC's, and they do not want to do that for the free trials. Now, the full compliment of CODEC's are in the paid version.
HERE'S an article with details.
I find it odd that your trial version would support MPEG one day, though not odd that it would not support it the next. It should NEVER have supported it. Could it be that you were using different Assets, or were Exporting with different settings yesterday? Maybe Audio as PCM/WAV?
Good luck,

Text fade not working when published

I am doing a text fade the same way I always have (or so it
seems) and it looks fine when I scrub the play head or play in the
program but when I test the movie the fade doesn't work. I've done
and redone this and still the same results. I have the text as a
graphic symbol, set alpha in one frame to 0 and to 100 in the other
frame, did the motion tween. I am guessing the problem lies in some
sort of publish setting but I have compared the settings between
this project and one that works fine and can't seem to find any
differences. Ideas?

Is the text static?

Problems when exporting to AVI, firts gave me "unknown error compiling movie" and then just exports small parts of timeline, I have to export the different parts, put it back in a timeline and then I can export it complete...it was working fine, HELP!!!

I proyect is 30 minutes long, im using only AVI files, no mpegs or anything, when I tried to used the encoder because it gave me the message "Failed to return a video frame", but i checked, started the proyect over...and there is no empty frame or anything....Please help!!!!!

The Failed to Return Video Frame error is often associated with a gap between Clips in the Timeline.
Zoom your Timeline view to max horizontal, hit Home and then PageDn repeatedly. Watch the CTI and also watch for any visible gap. The CTI should jump directly to the next Clip (be careful, as it will also include any Clip on any other Video Track, or Audio Track). If it seems to "hiccup," or "jutter," you have likely found your gap.Though it can only be as small as 1 frame, even with the Timeline zoomed in to max, they can be difficult to see.
Close the gap, and do not create another along the Timeline by doing so. Test your Export without the gaps, and see if it completes.
Good luck, and be sure to watch closely and carefully, as gaps can be tough to spot.

"Edge Feather" transform effect not showing up when exported to .avi

I used the "Edge Feather" transform effect on a clip, and it shows up perfectly in the preview pane. However, when I export it to AVI, the effect dissapears. It's just not there and I can't figure out why? Anyone have any ideas?

What kind of footage are you using? Did you render first?
Did you try deleting all of the preview files and then render again?

Aperture 3 messes histogram when exporting to either PSD or TIFF

Hi all,
I wanted to ask a question regarding how Aperture 3 handles the PSD/TIFF files. I've noticed that when i export a RAW file to Photoshop or to any other plugin (Noise Ninja for this instance) and Aperture prepares the file (i.e. makes a TIFF/PSD copy of the RAW file) it messes my histogram. As a consequence in a specific case i am working on now, it brightens up the shadows and lowers contrast.
Anyone knows why this happens? Is there any way i can stop this from happening?
Thanks in advance

P.S: Setting the Black point to the default Aperture value (3) on the TIFF/PSD file generated, results in a very similar result with the RAW file. Could it be the case that during the file conversion, aperture ignores some Exposure settings?

How i prevent text converting into image when exporting as a HTML FORMAT IN ADOBE FIREWORKS?

]I am an architect and wants to design my basic website with minimum graphics.
I am using coreldraw for graphics design but it is related to print (Hardcopies) and corel is not smart soft compared to adobe software.
So, for web design, I started to learn Fireworks. After some practice, i m able to design web graphics in fireworks.
But the main problem is that, when that page is exported into html format. All text were converted into Image and it is not useful.

Fireworks was devdeloped to use with Dreamweaver. It's not a stand alone app for developing web pages. Adobe Muse might be more the kind of app you are looking for. First, however, Give this tutorial a try.

No audio when exporting as AVI

I am having a problem exporting AVI's with flash cs4 when the sound is embedded in a movie clip. I get video but no audio. If the sound is on the main timeline, it works.
When I create a SWF or export as a MOV using movie clips with audio in them, there is no problem, either.
The problem is only with AVI's with audio in the movieclips. I don't think it has anything to do with the files I'm creating because all of my movies do the same thing.
I am sure it is just something I am doing wrong. Thanks.

I believe that MovieClips don't play in the AVI renderer. You will need to pull the things that are inside of MovieClips out to the main timeline to get this to work.
Or, you can export as a MOV, and then convert it to an AVI.
There is a free webservice that can do this conversion if you don't have the means to do it yourself:

Text gets cut off when exported to PDF

When I export my report to PDF some of my text gets cut off where it would meet the right edge of the text box by 1 or 2 letters.
This only happens when I export to PDF through my web application or when I export it throught the Report Manager URL
If I export it on my local copy of SSRS then it shows up fine without the text getting cut off

Hi,
You can set the Cangrow property of the textbox to true which allows to grow your textbox and is default for any text box unless you have changed it.
Please mark this post as Answered if this post helps to solve your query.

Hide text in certain textframes when exporting PDF

I have a couple of textframes/anchored objects that contain text used for
generating the TOC and other tasks.
At the end of my script, I export a PDF. Is it possible to hide these textframes during the export so that they won't be included in the pdf (perhaps there is a style)?

Set then to nonprinting in the attributes panel.

Audio problems when exporting to avi

I'm attempting to publish a Captivate 4 project to an avi file for upload to a video sharing site.
The file pubishes just fine except that the audio gets progressively out of sync. It starts out fine but as the video plays the audio gets further and further behind. By the end of an 8 and half minute movie, audio is about 20 seconds behind video.
I've tried doing the export on multiple machines (all Win XP) and using various video codecs including Cinepak, Indeo and Xvid. I've also tried changing the video frame rate but the results are always the same.
Anybody else run into this problem? Any workarounds?
Thanks

Hi there
I've seen others report that it's helpful to adjust the audio so that each slide doesn't begin playing audio until .2 or .3 seconds into the slide.
Perhaps try that and see how you fare.
Cheers... Rick

Colors get messed up when exporting to adobe pdf

I am working on a book cover that is mostly black. I have an image that has a black background that i have placed on the cover, and then i created a box and filled it with black for the rest of the cover. When i convert to pdf there is a noticible difference between the black of the picture (darker) and the black of the filled in box (lighter, almost looks grey). If i export to a jpeg it is fine, the colors blend seamlessly. What is going on? How do i fix it?

There is a lot that goes on with Blacks and exporting. First off, your image is probably photographic, or some sort of continuous tone raster image. If it is, and you are dealing with a naturally captured background, the black will have some variation from area to area, and it will have either R,G, and B components, or it will be a blend of the four CMYK channels. There's a good chance, from your description, that the black background you are placing it against is a frame filled with the [Black] color swatch, which is just 100% K ink without other components.
Adding other inks with 100% K results in a darker black, possibly with a cast toward another color, but still a color you would call black. Themore additional inks you add, the darker that black becomes, and 100% k, when printed, looks like gray in comparison. You may also have your preferences set to deceive you. In the Appearance of Black section, make sure that you have Display All Blacks Accurately set to show you the difference on screen.
When you export, colors can be preserved or converted to a destination profile. If you are converting RGB to CMYK, you will get a 4-color "rich black" equivalent. If you are converting to a different CMYK space than you have set for your working space, and you don't "preserve numbers," your 100% k will also convert to some four-color mix, but one that is lighter to simulate the single component black. If you convert to RGB, your blacks will convert to three-color RGB mixes.
What this means is that unless your image has a "dead flat" color (i.e. an artificial background that you've added in compositing an image) and you fill your drawn background in ID withthe same color mix (and are using the same color space as the image for your working space), there is virtually no chance of getting a seamless transition from image to ID background.

Repeating row texts when exporting web report to Excel

Dear all,
When exporting a web report (including a structure/hierarchy) to Excel (via the 'export to excel button), the row texts (e.g. balance sheet texts) appear twice (column A and B)in the Excel result.
When using the web context menu 'Export to Excel' this issue does not occur.
I am using a BW 3.5 system which has been upgraded to support pack 16.
I assume it is the combination of the structure and the 'export to excel' functionality that does not match up, because when I switch off the hierarchy functionality in the web report query properties, the export to excel does not give me any problems.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Arjan.

Did you write that software, COTS package called Medgate?
If not then ask that company for support. No one here would know how to fix it. They are using the CR RDC report engine.
Thank you
Don

Report Title and Text Area issue when exported to pdf using Viewer

Hi there,
We are using OracleBI Discoverer Version 10.1.2.55.26
We have reports that displays Report title containing the following
- Report Title
- Runt Date and Time
- Page No
And text area which displays 'Last Page'
Following properties are set at the worksheet level using page setup
Report Title --> 'Print on every Page'
Text Area --> 'Print on last page'
The report when exported to PDF using Discoverer plus works fine and displays report title and text area as defeined.
But when we try to export the same report to pdf from Discoverer viewer, it displays
- Report title on first page only.
- text area on all pages
All our users accesses report using discoverer viewer so we cannot open discoverer plus to them.
Is there a solution which will enable us to export the report in pdf using discoverer viewer and displays the same output as discoverer plus.
Please let me know... If you have any questions then please feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance for your help...

but when opened on other os x machines some text is colored differently than it should be
Well, if typographic objects are colour managed, the colour appearance is dependent on the source ICC profile that describes the colourants in the typographic objects and the destination ICC profile that describes the colours the display is able to form and the RBC colourant combinations that will form those colours.
In general, typographic objects should have special treatment, since the expectation is not that typographic objects should be colour managed, but that typographic objects should simple be set to the maximum density of dark. On a display, that is R=0 G=0 B=0 and on a seperations device (a lithographic press) that is C=0 M=0 Y=0 K=100.
If for some reason typographic objects are colour managed, and if the ICC profiles for the displays are off by half a mile or more in relation to the actual state of the display system, then the colours will not be the same. On the other hand, if those displays are calibrated and characterized, then the colourants will be converted to form the same colours on the displays.
