Why are the images on my screen in InDesign so crisp/clear and when I export to PDF to print they are blurry?

Top Picture is while the program, bottom is when exported as a PDF

Hi Kathdepew,
You are checking the PDF in Preview, please look it at Adobe Reader/Acrobat. Preview is not a recommended soft-proofing application.
Also, check you PDF export settings, it seems the images are being down-sampled. To know better, export the PDF with "High quality presets" and then check.

    How:  MS Word to .pdf by Command P, hitting the PDF button, and then the button for "save as Adobe pdf"
    I didn't have this problem at all on prior versions of Adobe on my PC.   This isn't a Mac attack, is it?

  • Why is the image on my screen changing when I switch between the library and develop modules?

    I've noticed in the past couple of days that I will be refining an image in the develop module, feel I've gotten it the way I want it to look, and then switch back to the library module to export. When I do so, I notice the colors are quite different than they were just a second ago in the develop module. When I switch back to the develop module, it goes back to the way it looked in the develop module. How might I fix this?

    Is what you see in Library the original, camera-embedded preview or is it just a messed up version of the LR-rendering?  You can test this by making a significant change to an image with the problem (Exposure -4 or Saturation +100) and see if the Library Preview also darkens (or the colors saturate) significantly or not.  You might also try explicitly telling LR to recompute the  Standard then the 1:1 preview to see if either of those show up in Library.
    If the Library view never shows any LR adjustments and is always the camera-embedded JPG preview or a LR-preview from some days ago that never changes no matter what you do in Develop, now, then your Previews cache is likely corrupted and the entire should probably be deleted so LR can rebuild them.  The previews folder is called catalogname Previews.lrdata and is a subfolder of where your catalog file (.lrcat) is stored.  You can location your catalog by going to the General tab in the Catalog Preferences and clicking the Locate button.  You should exit LR before trying to delete the Previews subfolder and make sure you’re not deleting the catalog or backups folder, just the folder with Previews.lrdata in the name.
    If the Library view just shows a different-looking version of the LR adjustments then perhaps something is wrong with the display-driver or the monitor’s color profile.

  • Why is the Image in Canvas Square?

    I have about a dozen video clips in my Sequence - they are all DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, 720x480. The sequence settings are 720x480 NTSC DV (3:2), Pixel Aspect Ratio NTSC - CCIR 601 - DV 720/480 and the Compressor DV/DVCPRO - NTSC.
    Question: Why is the image in the Canvas square?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Brian

    it looks stretched taller.
    I think you have Anamorphic material.
    Start a new Sequence. Go to Sequence > Settings and click the Anamorphic checkbox.
    Select a clip in the Browser. Press command and 9. Find Anamorphic in the column on the left.
    Click next to it in the Clip column to place a check mark there too.
    Edit into the timeline.
    Does that look better?

  • I used to be able to use the reduce picture ( middle button ) using Firefox and dragging the image to another screen. How do I restore this as the reduce button will not work ?

    The top right corner of the screen allows you to reduce the size of your entire image on Firefox . I used to be able to do this so I could drag the image to another screen . Suddenly I cannot do so anymore from my laptop. What can I do ?

    Could you clarify where you are doing your search?
    ''For Firefox's "Search bar",'' which is the box on the right end of the main navigation toolbar with the icon indicating your currently selected search engine, there is a hidden setting for this:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''sear''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.search.openintab''' preference to switch it from false to true.
    If you test, does it work?
    ''For searches from other places,'' could you be more specific about where you are entering your query (e.g., address bar, built-in home page, on a search engine site)?

  • Why is the image in iMovie reversed?

  • Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another?

    Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another??  I want to use the more vibrant color, but when I try to reproduce the same RGB color code in another Adobe Illustrator (ai) file, it shows up darker.  I printed the two files out, and you can see the difference in the print too.  I exported the color orginally as an eps file from an ArcGIS map.
    Any insight is greatly appreciated!
    Anne

    You illustrator files may have different color profiles attached.
    Set to show your color profile in the bottom left of each document by using the flyout menu >> show >> document color profile
    Then you can use edit >> assign profile to get them the same
    Yours are quite far off for RGB (which are usually close to each other for many profile due to wide gamut).  I question as Jacob did if one of your documents are in CMYK mode. Look in parenthesis after the document name at top of window.
    Check if view > proof setup is the same (do not use the uncoated profile as in my screenshot, that was only there cause of my testing)
    Make sure view >> proofs colors is checked or unchecked for both.
    To get them to print the same, check these settings are the same
    Sorry for all the screenshots, but hopefully one day we will see Adobe's complex color management united all in one window.

  • HT4972 When I take photos of myself, the image come out backwards.  I have an iPad2 and an iPad 3, and both of them do the same with my self portraits.  Any ideas on how to remedy this?

    Gmabert-
    The front camera displays a reversed image on the screen, as if you were looking into a mirror.  When you take a picture, it comes out normal, which is backwards to what you would have observed on the screen.

    Hello jose mariofromsan luis potosi,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are saying that your iOS devices are not showing up in iTunes on your Windows computer, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    On the other hand, if you are saying that your devices are only showing a Connect To iTunes icon screen, then this article may be more useful:

    Try the following:

    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup

    Iphone went out, when i did get it back on, up in the top left of screen it continues to show searching, and wi-fi is grayed out keeping me from restoring it. what can i do to fix this?

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can clear some glitches.
    If this does not work, try to set it up as new device without using the latest backup.
