Why do vector objects copied from illustrator cc don't stay the same dimensions when pasted into pho

I think the problem started with the last updates. The normal work flow of copy and paste no longer functions correctly.
Photshop is changing the dimensions of vector artwork copied from illustrator, and pasted to photoshop.
If I start with a 6in x 6in vector shape in illustrator, and select copy, I should be able to go into photoshop, select file and then new,
and the document should automaticly get the dimensions from the clipboard. For some reason that 6in x 6in opens a 0.6in x 0.6in document.
Even if i manually change the document to 6in x 6in, anything else I copy from illustrator larger than 6in x 6in gets its dimensions changed to fit inside the document. I cant copy and paste a 10in x 2in vector into the 6in x 6in document without photoshop changing the dimensions
so it fits inside the document. Any ideas on how to fix? Thanks.

illustrator has no dpi, that info wont copy to the clip board. There are setting within illustrator you can set so when you do raster something in illustrator, you can pick what dpi it will raster it to. But even if you raster something in illustrator, the dpi info doesn't copy to the clipboard.
The Photoshop: File, New, opens a window with the default set to pixels and 72ppi. When you have something stored on the clipboard, First you change the pixels to inches, cm, mm, anything but pixels, the dimensions stay locked in and Then you can change the ppi to anything you want.
The issue once the file is opened, and you try to copy and paste in something larger than the canvas still needs corrected. I have found a quick work around. After you paste it, before you select ok or hit enter, look at the info where it displays the % of the size of what's being placed.
It shows it at less than 100%, so change it to 100% (and constrain) and its back to original size.

  • My document don't print the same color when I print it from PDF rather than InDesign

  • How can you rotate the labels on the category axis of a graph in Illustrator and have it stay the same when updating the graph data?

    I am needing to create a line graph with dates consisting of MM/DD/YY along the category axis. I would like to rotate the labels 45 degrees and have them stay when I update the graph. I have read about manually doing it, I even made an action to make it faster, but it still seems inefficient. Is there a setting that I could use to automatically create my labels as rotated? Thanks.

    Hi Gravy Train,
    I'm curious about why you are using 2 loops.   You mentioned one is for monitoring and one is for DAQ....what do you mean by that?   What is the overall goal of this piece of code.   Also, I noticed that you are not closing the task.   Since this is just a subset, I realize you could be closing it in your actual code, but just in case you're not.....it is very important that you close all tasks when you are down acquiring data.

  • Copy from illustrator, paste in photoshop. My image is now tiny and pixelated

    My coworker and I just updated my photoshop CC yesterday and we are both having the same problem, so here is what happens:
    I draw a vector image in illustrator, say its a square that is 1x1".  I copy it from illustrator, and go to open a new photoshop document. My preset is "clipboard" which means it should give me a 1x1" square that is the resolution that i have set (in my case it is usually set at 1200 DPI), but instead, it is now setting it to .6x.6 inches. Then when I have the document open and paste it in, it is pasting it at a very low resolution and a smaller canvas size than my image is.
    If I dont use the clipboard preset and type in my own size, the resolution is fine when I paste my shape in. This works for shapes that are exact dimensions, but if I have a shape that is 2.2034x3.4565, its a little annoying to have to figure out that dimensions in illustrator then type it in when creating my photoshop document, epseically because I am doing this over and over throughout the day (creating bitmapped tiffs from vector illustrator shapes). Its also annoying to have to make it bigger then crop it down after I paste it in.
    Before the update, the clipboard preset would size it exactly to the size of my shape I copied from illustrator and the resolution would be fine.
    I am hoping it is something simple that I just need to check or uncheck, but I dont know where to start.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I have the same problem, but I found a workaround. It may be the same procedure Sarahjane_72 used. It adds two steps to the import: Copy the AI vector art, switch to PS, hit command-N, then, when the Paste dialogue box appears, *first* switch the box's units from pixels to whatever you use-centimeters, inches, picas. *Then* switch the scaling factor, e.g., 72dpi, to your preferred size, e.g., 300dpi, and the image should paste at the correct size. If you reverse the sequence and change the dpi first, it will not work, and the results will be unusable. I have no idea why it works one way and not the other, but switching first from pixels(a scaling factor) to an exact measurement in inches or centimeters seems to make all the difference. I've asked this question in other threads. Nobody has an answer, but I can tell you that this glitch survived a reformatting of my HD to get rid of a malware infection, followed by a re-install of the Adobe CC apps. So it seems to be due to some change in Photoshop. It's a big waste of time and I hope it wasn't consciously added as an "improvement".

  • Why are excel charts copied to Illustrator CS 5.1 now coming in as pictures?

    I've been creating charts in Excel 2004 for Mac for years and copying them into Illustrator. They have always previously pasted into Illustrator as vectors illustrations. I've created hundreds of charts in Excel before and copied them to Illustrator to "dress them up" for reports with no problems. I just created a chart in Excel 2004 for Mac and copied it to Illustrator and it came in as a picture. This is the first time I have ever had this happen with an Excel chart.
    I've searched various sites and have not found anyone who's run into this issue.
    Any ideas?

    I have never printed to pdf from Excel. I have always just copied the actual chart and pasted it into Illustrator, then worked on it there.
    The image below is from one of the charts that originated in Excel and then was "dressed up" in Illustrator. It was a fairly complicated chart but it came into Illustrator with no problems whatsoever. (The Excel chart was fairly basic - specifically to avoid any issues when pasting into Illustrator.) All of the drop shadows and other embellishments were made in Illustrator.
    My system has not changed  - other than the usual MS Office updates.

  • Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    You probably ended up purchasing a Mac OS X 10.6.3 DVD. I have posted previously about this. I will edit this once I find the post again.
    10.6.3 is incompatible with the Mac Pro you are using. You must install the version that came with your computer or newer. (Yours came with 10.6.4)
    If you do not have the original discs:
    There is another way to do this that I just remembered when one of my co-workers asked me if I had a 10.6.6 disc.
    You need two macs: NEW and OLDER.
    Connect NEW and OLDER via firewire cable. (NEWER is probably firewire 800, so you may need a firewire 400-800 adapter or cable)
    Boot NEW into "Target Disk Mode" by holding down 'T' at boot until the Firewire logo (looks like a Y) appears.
    Boot to Install Disc in OLDER.
    Once you have booted to the install disc, it is the same process as installing it onto the internal drive, except you need to choose the Drive in the other computer as the target drive. The drive that you want to install to will look like it's a firewire drive (so it will look like a mounted usb drive but with that 'Y' symbol on it.)
    MAKE SURE NOT TO INSTALL OVER THE GOOD DRIVE!!!!!
    Go ahead and install Mac OS X.
    Once it finishes installing and OLDER shuts down hold down the 'Option' key right after the chime. Select the drive that you just installed Mac OS X on. It should appear just as it did in the Installer.
    Once it has booted and you have logged in: run software update and update to the latest version of the OS. Once you have finished updating, shutdown the computer. Unplug the firewire cable. Turn off NEW, then turn it back on. It should work properly.

  • T3Client connection to cluster from appserver ends up *always* in the same appserver!!!! Why???

    I found that T3Client connection to cluster from appserver ends up always

    I guess the RMI object you connect to is using "sticky to first server".
              This is default. For your own RMI object, there is a way to turn the
              "sticky" off, refer to cluster and RMI object documents for details.
              For EJB objects, refer to "Urgent: Please help!" message for details.

    QA: Yes - try again with legacy-collection true and false.

    Details: Another try in fixing this bug. When legacy-collection is false, Actionscript Array on the client becomes Java Array on the server and my fix yesterday assumed this case. However, when legacy-collection is true, Actionscript Array becomes Java ArrayList on the server. So added code to handle this case.

    Basically an unbounded wsdl type is an array of objects (HashMaps), makes sense, i thought i had it like this before, must have messed up somewhere...

  • Moving Events and Projects from one location to another on the same hard drive.

    Hello.
    I've searched in the FCP X User Manual, on this forum and in Google, but have found no explanation of how to do this, so I'm posting this here in hopes that someone in our community will be able to help.
    I've previously stored my FCP X Events and Projects folders on an external 3TB hard drive, because there is more room on it than on the internal 1TB hard drive, but, since then, I've worked with other media apps, for video, photography and audio, the files for which are also stored on the external hard drive, and this has created a bit of clutter with no folder structure to keep it tidy.
    I like an organised file structure on my system, to keep it uncluttered, easy to navigate and efficient to use, so I put all the files for my photography, video and audio apps into their own folders, which are, in turn, stored in their appropriate folders for Audio, Photography and Video, and those three folders are stored in a folder called Media, and then I directed each app to its own files.
    The only app with which this has been a problem is FCP X. While there is a way of relocating projects and events from within FCP X, it allows the user to move them from one hard drive to another, and not, as I want, from one place to another on the same hard drive.
    I'm not sure if it matters, but perhaps it's relevant to mention before the next paragraph that the files that had previously been imported as events are, to save hard-drive space, stored in the events folder as shortcuts to the original files, which are stored elsewhere on the drive, rather than as duplicates of those files.
    In Finder, I copied the Events and Projects folders to their intended new locations and tried in the app to link the events and projects to their new Finder location. It seemed to have worked, until I moved the original folders to the Trash. On re-opening FCP X, it was clear that the linking hadn't worked. I returned the original folders from the Trash to their original location, but that didn't entirely reverse the problem. I noticed also that, in the original and duplicated Events folders, the shortcuts had lost their links to the original files stored elswehere on the drive.
    Fortunately I had run a backup before starting, so I restored the original folders and the app from the backup, and all was back to normal.
    I'd be grateful if anyone could advise me on whether or not it's possible to move FCP X events and projects from one place to another on the same hard drive with the app's compliance.
    Thank you.

    Well if you use the Finder Go menu to Computer, a window opens up double click on your boot drive and then on Users folder, open the other user folder and open Public and drop your files into DropBox
    When you do this it will copy them and change the permissions and user assigned to it, so log into the other user and place them into your respective normal folders.
    Once you have all your files over and don't need the old user, use System Preferences > Accounts to delete it if you wish, however it's good two Admin accounts on the machine in case something bad happens in the other. Some people for security reasons on use a Standard account for most uses and a emergency Admin account.
    One can still do most Admin things in Standard user.

  • How can I cope iPhotos from one to another user on the same mac

    How can I copy my iphotos from on user to another on the same mac?

    Depending on how many pictures you wish to share there are different options.
    1) Steps to share your whole iPhoto Library
    A) Share your photos
    Firstly setup a shared folder that the other user(s) will be able to access. This can be done in System Preferences, Sharing, then selecting the checkbox next to 'File Sharing'. You'll then want to select the folder to share and also the users who can access it.
    In your instance, I would suggest sharing the folder where your 'iPhoto Library' file resides, which is most likely going to be in the default 'Pictures' folder. The other user will then be able to access your 'iPhoto Library' in their iPhoto application under their user account and see all contents in your iPhoto library.
    B) Configure the other users iPhoto to access your shared iPhoto Library (or any library of your choice)
    Logout of your account and into the user who requires access to your iPhoto Library. Find the iPhoto application, press and hold the option/alt key and click to open the application. 'What photo library do you want iPhoto to use?' will appear in a window, click 'Choose', navigate to your preferred iPhoto Library and iPhoto will now load your pictures.
    2) Steps to share a few selected pictures
    You will follow the same steps as above in order to setup a shared pictures folder, however in your user account, drag and drop photos out of your iPhoto library into a shared folder which the other user can access.
    Notes:
    The method of sharing your whole iPhoto Library means that both users will be accessing/editing the same library. This means you will be able to see pictures imported/edited by each other. If this is undesired, you can create a copy of your iPhoto library on the 2nd user account instead of both accounts running the same library from a shared folder.
