Vector Scalability

I’m working on a video wall that will be populated
with, among other things, Flash vector animations. The resolution
will probably be somewhere in the range of 4500x2400. Does anyone
have experience running vector graphics at this size? I would like
to know whether this is feasible, and how powerful of CPU I need to
make it work.
Thanks

Thanks, so obvious. I was trying to over complicate things as usual.

  • Any Vector Scalable format in iPhone Dev???

    Hello,
    Is there any possibility to use some of scalable formats like svg, ai, pdf in UIImageView or in a development??? I am trying to do some custom Map and I would like to scale it in UIScrollView but just now I am using the PNG versions...
    Let me know how to do with this if you have done some solutions...

    Sorry...what is it you want to do, exactly?
    Use one image/source but scale it depending on use?
    Zoom on an image/source?
    Else...?

  • Scalable swf flash images in pdf?

    I am using Adobe CS 5.5 package. If there any way to create (vector) scalable flash graphics when I create pdf files?  These flash images (swf files) are scalable in my html file, but when I "print to pdf," they are rasterized.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Jay

    Yes and no.
    "Printing" any web page to PDF will always rasterize non-text objects, it's part of the way the web browser works.
    If you use the Acrobat "Create PDF from Web Page" button, there's an option to retain interactive multimedia. With this chosen, SWF content in the web page will remain as native SWF content on the PDF, so it will scale when you zoom in to view the PDF on screen - but when you print that PDF it will be rasterized again.

  • Illustrator CS4 smart objects?

    Hi
    I am creating a vector illustration of an ipad or similar. I want to be able to retain vector scalability and have the ability to change the screen image of the ipad to a different image. The screen image layer is currently using a mask to define the screen area and there are a couple of layers over it containg lighting which overlay the screen image.
    I have tried to select the current image and 'place' a new image, but I just get a new layer with an unmasked image on top of the previous image.
    Can anyone suggest a simple method to add the new screen image. The final file will be handed to people with an even more limited knowledge of illustrator than myself.
    I have also tried to export the image to photoshop and then turning the screen image layer into a smart object. Then clicking on the smart object to open the layer, dragging and dropping the new image onto the opened smart object and then saving. This method does replace the image, but when I tested the scalability of the final image in photoshop by changing image size to 10 % and then back to the original size my image had blurry edges. Perhaps because some of the live effects from illustrator (e.g blur, inner glow) are not vector in Photoshop??
    Thanks for any help you can supply

  • Tracing in CS5 and CS6

    Hey guys,
    I try to vectorize a picture. If I vectorize it the results are not what I want
    look here:
    And that is what I get:
    I want something like that:
    The first vectorization was made in CS6 and the one I want was made in CS 5
    All settings in vectorize were made as detailed as it could be--> paths 100%, corners 100%, blur 0%. Still this average thing.
    Please help me solve that problem, because I really need to fix this.
    Kind regards,
    Lance

    I don't have CS6 in front of me rigtht now to compare its trace settings to previous versions. And three of your screenshots are not displaying.
    But is there a reason you want the autotrace to simply make squares around pixels? There is no "vector scalability advantage" in that. Raster pixels are just as scaleable as vector squares. You would just as well simply downsample and/or posterize the raster image.
    If you have some object-based technical reason for doing it, you might find Create Mosaic just as (or more) effective/advantageous.

  • JHeadstart & (Scalable Vector) Graphics - From the AMIS JHeadstart Cookbook

    A picture can tell more than a thousand words. Adding meaningful graphics to our web-application can enhance the visual attractiveness s well as the functional effectiveness. Simple, data-drive graphics such as progress indicators, status ‘traffic lights’, gauge and speedometer like indicators can all represent data-values in a explicit, obvious way. Charts such as line-graphs, bar-charts and pie-charts facilitate quick interpretation of multiple values and trends.
    Using SVG in JHeadstart Applications - Scalable Vector Graphics are a technology for describing graphics in a structured, XML-based definition that can be rendered in browsers using a (free) plugin. Because of their XML-foundation, SVG objects can be generated by XML/XSL-T Transformations from dynamic datasources. That in turn makes it quite straightforward to generate graphics that are data-driven: the overall layout of the graphic is defined in an XSLT file while the dynamic data is fed into the SVG generation process in an XML document.
    In this recipe, we look at the use of SVG technology together with the JHeadstart architecture for incorporating data-driven graphics in our web-application. See: http://www.amis.nl/technology/Cookbook/Recipe%20for%20GeneratingSVGObjects.htm
    The Dutch Oracle partner AMIS has a 10-person JHeadstart team, currently involved in 4 JHeadstart-projects in The Netherlands. Their experiences and ideas are compiled in the AMIS JHeadstart Cookbook that is published on the internetsite (http://www.amis.nl) for other JHeadstart developers to share.
    I hope the recipes are of use to you.
    best regards,
    Lucas Jellema

    As a result of reorganizing (and re-providing) our website, some of the URLs stopped working. I apologize for any inconvencience.
    The JHeadstart Cookbook can now be found at: http://www.amis.nl/files/technology/Cookbook/AMISJHeadstartCookbook.htm and the Recipe on Generating SVG is located at: http://www.amis.nl/files/technology/Cookbook/RecipeforGeneratingSVGObjects.htm.
    Note that the AMIS Demo Application (AMIS Library System) created along with our Cookbook is now shipped as part of JHeadstart 9.0.5.1 to demonstrate the use of Oracle Toplink. This will make it easier for you all to apply our recipes - since you have the ALS application already available when using JHeadstart 9.0.5.1.

  • Scalable Vector Graphics Format

    Is there anyway to import Scalable Vector Graphics files into Keynote? This is a useful format for drawing programs in the open source world. For example, I have been using the Illustrator-like program, Inkscape, to good effect, but I cannot get the drawings I make into Keynote except as bitmaps.

    Welcome to the discussions, Alexis.
    I believe that "best" is subjective. It depends on what you want to do and how much you want to pay. For example, OmniGraffle is not as well known as, say, Adobe Illustrator, but for the difference in price, it may be worth your while especially if what you intend to do is create a few shapes every now and then for your presentation. You could also take a look at Purgatory Design's Intaglio.
    The cool thing about both OmniGraffle and Intaglio (that's not true for Adobe Illustrator) is they both support LinkBack. What is linkback?
    http://commons.ucalgary.ca/~king/projects/keynoteplugins/linkback/
    Essentially, you can copy a graphic out of OmniGraffle or Intaglio and paste it into Keynote after installing the patch at the website above. Then, even after you've quit the program, if you decide that you need it to be a red-blue gradient instead of a red-black gradient, you just double-click on the graphic. The Linkback enabled program of your choice will then open and you will be able to EDIT that graphic fully. Make it larger smaller, change colors stroke whatever you want to do. When you SAVE that document, those changes are shown in Keynote so either of those could make a nice side app to use with Keynote.
    Finally, if you just want to open a program, draw some pictures then export to a Keynote .key file, EazyDraw can do that. It's a little different from the other programs and some of it's conventions may not be familiar, but once you've gotten the hang of where everything is, it's fine to work with. You can even create separate layers in EazyDraw and have each layer output as a separate slide.

  • Beginner needs help converting file to scalable vector

    Hey guys, please help. I drew this, then coloured it in photoshop. I opened the psd file in illustrator and used various trace methods to turn it into a vector but some part of this image keeps coming out blurry. I'm sure this is fixable but i just don't know how to do this. my hands shake due to a nerve damage from an accident so doing this manually is going to be absolutely hard if not impossible. how would i make the edges of this file smooth and make the file itself scalable ?
    here's a link to the image: http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr13/gummybear052003/pantonecolours.jpg
    if anyone can help me, i'd gladly send them the psd file, also appreciate any help and advice
    many thanks
    p.s the colours are from left to right:
    pantone 201
    213
    368 2x

    Egads.
    No offense to anyone, but I'm beginning to wish auto-tracing had never been invented. ;-)
    This particular project is obviously decidely and explicitly
    geometric in nature. It is three very simple paths. It is line art. It could almost be done entirely from the keyboard.
    1. FORGET AUTOTRACING.

    Hello,
    Anyone, know what is going on with svg and dreamweaver isnt

  • Can I use Scalable Vector Graphics (.SVG) in RoboHelp 11 projects?

    I need to import .SVGs into my RoboHelp 11 HTML5 project, but that file type doesn't seem to be supported. I tried pasting the appropriate HTML code into a topic, but the SVG graphic doesn't show. Am I missing something, or is there a work-around?

    Hi folks
    Simple Simon here.
    First off, I totally agree with Erik in that you should file a Feature Request.
    Secondly, I know that many folks aren't really all that keen on mucking with code. So here's one solution that involves minimal code muckage, (yep, muckage is a technical term. I just invented it!)
    Add your SVG to Baggage where you want it.
    Insert an image where you want your SVG to appear.
    Click and drag the SVG from Baggage to the spot just beyond the image.
    Double-click the SVG link and copy what appears in the Link to area. Then delete the link.
    Click once on the image, then click the HTML tab.
    Now just paste what you copied between the img tags.
    Cheers... Rick

  • What is the default font defined by JSR 226-SVG Scalable Vector Graphics

    The question is briefly as follows
    Do we have to include <font></font> tag inside the SVG file?
    Or is there any default font available to use?

    The default font name is ArialNarrow

  • Difference between scalable and failover cluster

    Difference between scalable and fail over cluster

    A scalable cluster is usually associated with HPC clusters but some might argue that Oracle RAC is this type of cluster. Where the workload can be divided up and sent to many compute nodes. Usually used for a vectored workload.
    A failover cluster is where a standby system or systems are available to take the workload when needed. Usually used for scalar workloads.

  • How to make scalable text button

    I'm learning Captivate at the moment and I cannot understand this at all...
    I want to creat a text button. Captivate allows NO options to change the grey text box or blue rollover effect. So I find out that the only way to do it is to creat your own image button, BUT Captivate does not allow Illustrator import, thus the images are not scalable. This means that if I want to creat a text button that will have various sizes of widths the image will have to be stretched and this looks awful.
    Someone please tell me that my only option is to not create a seperate image for every instance of text due to variance in width.......
    Please help.
    I tried calling the Adobe Technical Support line... I even spoke with a specialist. They did not speak English well and kept telling me over and over to import my own image... but that does not solve the problem, it still stretches!!! They basically said there is no way around this. I cannot believe this to be the case... Even powerpoint allows text button customization....
    Thank you

    The look and feel of the default text button object in Captivate is actually controlled by your operating system.  So if you look at the same course onh a Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 7 box, the buttons will all look slightly different.   This is one reason that Captivate gives you the option to use other button types such as image buttons, which you can also create for yourself if you are handy with an image editor.  There is currently no import facility for vector art from Illustrator or other similar programs.
    Since the OS controls the default text button appearance, you don't have a lot of control over things like the corner radius etc, because in the OS, this might actually be square (e.g. in Win2000).
    It sounds more to me like what you REALLY want is to be able to use some of the Captivate text caption types as if they were buttons.  Some of these have rounded corners.  Alternatively, you can create a rounded rectangle using the drawing tool and configure the corner radius and background colour any number of ways.  The only things you'd be missing are rollover effects (doable with rollover captions) and interactivity.  Lilybiri suggested that you can just place an invisible clickbox over the top of the caption to make it work like a button.  The user will never know that it's the clickbox instead of the caption that they're clicking.
    If you want even more options as far as interactivity triggered by other mouse events such as mouse over and mouse out, you can make almost any Captivate screen object interactive using the Event Handler widget from Infosemantics.

  • Scalable graphics problem

    b Please note:
    Im not sure whether this problem is related to Illustrator itself, but I would greatly appreciate the help of anyone more enlightened than me in digital graphics.
    b Summary:
    Problem while generating .PDF from Microsoft Word file containing vector graphics. Word file contains embedded .EMF files, which are totally wasted during the conversion.
    b Long version:
    b Step 1:
    I have a Microsoft Word 2007 file (.DOCX), where I need to insert a few UML diagrams from IBM Rational Software Architect. Of course IBM in no way supports any direct export of vector graphics. I figured out that the only way to turn diagrams scalable is to print them to PDF file.
    Link to original PDF file printed from RSA: http://kozel.piasta.pl/print.pdf
    Rasterised version for viewers convenience: http://kozel.piasta.pl/print_ras.jpg
    b Step 2:
    There is no way to insert PDF file directly into DOCX and have good quality. Therefore, I decided to make conversion to EMF which so far was working perfectly (other EMF diagrams are present in DOCX, source is Microsoft Visio). I used Adobe Illustrator CS4 - first I opened a PDF file from Step 1, then I used File -> Export and chose EMF format. I ended up with almost properly looking EMF file, which looks alright in image viewers:
    Link to original EMF generated from Adobe Illustrator: http://kozel.piasta.pl/print.emf
    Rasterised version for viewers convenience: http://kozel.piasta.pl/printemf_ras.jpg
    (yes, the horizontal line is missing)
    b Step 3:
    I inserted EMF file from Step 2 to DOCX. It looked marvelous, so I moved on to generate PDF file. I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. To generate PDF File I select Acrobat ribbon in Word 2007 and then click Create PDF this way my final PDF contain hyperlinked bookmarks, table of contents, table of figures etc (there features are mandatory and required).
    b Step 4 and final definition of an issue:
    Final PDF file generated from DOCX looks like utter ****.
    Link to final PDF file: http://kozel.piasta.pl/print_final.pdf
    Rasterised version for viewers convenience: http://kozel.piasta.pl/print_final_ras.jpg
    Since I dont know much about computer graphics at all I am pretty much stuck. Something tells me that PDF file generated is Step 1 from RSA is somewhat ****** up, as other applications do not exhibit the same issue.
    If anyone has any idea what might be the solution or can recommend a specific place to post this issue, I would be very grateful.
    The following was tried without success:
    *PDF printer other that Adobe PDF - I have used PDFCreator (GPL license) to print .DOCX. This WORKS and the result is what I expected in the first place. However my headings, bookmarks, references are not hyperlinks in generated PDF file, so I cannot use this method.
    *Conversion from Word 2007 .docx to .doc format (Word 2003)
    *Playing 6h straight with preferences in Acrobat ribbon in Word (this however does not mean it is done, there is simply too many combinations in there)
    *Export PDF from Step 1 to .WMF in Illustrator - total failure, the text in diagrams becomes rasterised
    *Inkscape as a alternative software solution to Adobe Illustrator exported EMF file a failure, its black and white (pretty much the same as in final PDF file) and terribly crooked
    *Virtual printed that prints directly to EMF EMF Virtual Printer direct print from IBM Software Architect contains only raster graphical parts of UML diagrams and no text at all

    In the original PDF those icons are rasters. They may be rasters in the original IBM Rational Software Architect document, too. My guess is they are from a library of icons and are natively raster.
    Those icons survive the trip through PDF > Illustrator > EMF > Word. The problem seems to happen somewhere during or after the import into MS Word, which makes sense (verifies overall suckiness of Word). That also seems to clear Illustrator of any wrongdoing here. It has plenty to spare.
    Generally I leave Word issues alone. If you want to use a a hammer as a screwdriver you can't blame the hammer for ******* up the head of you screw, or the screw for getting it's head ****** up by your hammer. But given the verbosity of your post and thoroughness of your troubleshooting I assume the hammer-as-screwdriver is not your choice.
    My experience is limited when working between Illustrator and Word, but I have learnt a few lessons. (1) People who want files in Word have low standards and don't know vector from raster from rectum. (2) Illustrator's EMF export is ****. Thus, Export to PNG has been a solution that (touch wood) has not made anyone come back with a complaint. If print is the final destination, then use 300 ppi with antialiasing OFF. If the destination is on-screen presentation or (Ewww!) Word-generated HTML, use 72 ppi with antialiasing ON.
