I'm using large .exr/.tx bitmaps via VrayHDRI texture nodes. At many points 3dsmax thinks it has to load the whole maps into memory even if I deactivated every texture-display and slate-update that I know of.
Is this a Vray issue or a general max issue? Can I somehow force max to not touch any of the textures and leave it to Vray to handle them?
Recurring problem i'm having with bitmaps im trying to export to our large format printer. Some bitmaps are coming up with a grey type filter or lens that corel is automatically putting over my photo.
When i export this' filter' remains on the picture.
If i hit 'edit bitmap' the photo comes up normal with all the colours as it should be. Hit 'save' and it goes straight back to having a grey filter over it? Its only with some photos and the other ones are the same profile on the same page? It seems to be always the physically largest one in size (not dpi) I have tried converting to a cmyk bitmap instead of RGB.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed a large number of fonts on my computer (27720). Mostly all of my programs that use fonts Word, FIreworks, Dreamweaver, etc.. work just fine. But Photoshop chokes on them when loading and its performance goes to nothing causing it to freeze/take very long times to do anything (start up even).
I'm assuming its trying to do some big operation with them at start up. Does anyone know of anything that might might fix photoshop (CS) into skipping or avoiding what ever it is it does with fonts that makes it so slow when given a large amount?
Obviously the apparent solution would be to remove the fonts and I would if it were all the programs acting up, but it's just photoshop and im hoping there is some easy option fix :/.

Is there anyway to speed up the loading time. Like some code that will tell it load specific number of frames first and then load the rest in the background?

I am looking to create a collage made from 100 photos (all taken high res) to be printed large, approx 120cm x 50cm. To be able to print this size I need to keep the high resolution and hence looking for a large file output.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever I open a bitmap in Photoshop, the visual quality of the image is not as good is it is in ImageReady. The bitmap looks exactly right in everything but photoshop. Even ms-paint! The problem doesn't happen to Jpegs though. The effect is something like a stepping-down effect between shades(or colors?) and it ruins the entire image. (eg. a bitmap image of an apple looks like it has obvious lines of shading)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am struggling with placing different bitmaps on a chamferbox. I can place a bitmap on the top and bottom face, no problem here , the bitmap is displayed, after converting the chamferbox to editable poly. The problem is that when selecting the front poly only (so i select only 1 poly) and when i put a bitmap on it, only a part of the bitmap is displayed. It seems the picture stretches out over front, left ,bottom and right poly. But i want not the streched part of the bitmap , but the whole bitmap to be displayed on the front, and also the same for other bitmaps on left, right and back. What is the trick, that the bitmap is not stretched out over mutiple poly's ?

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy earliest digital images are monochrome bitmap TIFFs, and LightRoom 4 regards them as an unsupported format, even though they are not excluded in this list of supported file formats [Edit: 1-bit images are not mentioned, so I suppose that is an exclusion]. LR4 won't import them.
Â
I understand that I won't be able to apply Develop functions unless I convert them to, say 8-bit grayscale, but I'd like them in the catalog in their original form, so I can find them, use them and apply metadata such as tags and captions.

What is the best way to manage monochrome bitmap TIFFs in LightRoom?
I just noticed that bitmap images always get jagged edges when rotated in Corel Draw X5. I first thought it's just the editing preview on the screen, but I've noticed that the edges are visible even when exported to any bitmap at 300dpi. So now I worry if the jagged images will also be visible in print!?
note that imported images are all in approx 12MP resolution, so when I import them, I actually reduce the size by converting the photo to 300dpi bitmap with anti-aliasing ON. I tried rotating prior to and after the "Convert to bitmap 300DPI" command. The edges are always jagged. Other parts of the image besides the edges are well anti-aliased.
I select a bitmap and go to "Bitmaps", but the link to Photo Paint is grayed out. Â How do I edit a bitmap in photo paint and get it back to CD? Â

I've found a couple of discussions on creating reflections for vector objects, but what about bitmaps?
Whilst searching through stock photos, I started noticing some of those common isolated images on a "reflective" surface are rather lazily created resulting in just plain wrong reflections. I'm talking mostly about those "people standing around" images, but it could apply to anything.
Here's an example of what I mean:
Now if these folks were standing on a reflective surface, their reflections would meet where they touch. Note how some appear to be standing on one foot, because the reflection of the other foot doesn't meet. Or it looks like they're standing on their toes because the heel is off. Obviously this was done by simply flipping the image and fading it.
Here's a link to the stock photo if you want to see the whole thing. Here's another one where everyone appears to be standing on their toes.
A couple of times I've attempted to correct this by creating my own reflections. With some fudging and distortion of the reflected outline, I managed, but typically had to have a very fast fade. Easier to create a vector trace, then shade it grey and use that. It gets increasingly more difficult the more distinct and clear you want the reflection. Studying reality, if someone were standing on a mirror, their reflection would have the perspective of looking up at them from the bottom.
So how would you approach creating a reflection from a bitmap where there is no straight line defining the reflection line?
I received an PDF file from my client's designer which was generated from AI. When I import it into CorelDraw, the bitmaps are in broken pieces, and the tone element is also broken into solid pieces.
I wonder if the problem is with the PDF or it's CorelDraw.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to have Corel Draw re-import images I imported into Draw? I have a bunch of images I imported, power clipped, and did a few other things to but I did not edit the bitmap itself. I'm using CD to outline the bitmap to create a white back ground for the image. Now I adjusted the bitmaps in After Shot Pro so it looks better and now I want CD to use the new bitmap and not the one I imported but I dont want to go through all the power clipping ect ect again.
I named all the files the same so is there a way for CD to re-import all the bitmaps again?
I am trying to convert idw to dwg and dxf format using InventorAPI (TranslatorAddIn). My test.idw document contains 2 sheets with 2 linked bitmap in titleblock. After conversion I get in my output folder:
2 dxf files for each sheet2 dwg files for each sheet8 bitmap files  (2 for each format and sheet) The problem is with names of the bitmap files: test1.png, test2.png, ... , test8.png.
It's really hard to say which bitmap is linked to which file. Is the way to handle the naming problem? Â
The secand problem is if I convert to dwg and dxf in separete folder I have 2 times bimat numberd from 1 to 4. In that case I have naming colision problem but I cannot simply change name of this bitmap because dxf and dwg files keep the reference to that one. Â
Is any simply way to programmaticaly change the reference to linked bitmap in dwg and dxf files?Â
I'm working on a print document and do not understand the behavior of Designer Pro X9 concerning image optimizing. When I drag an image from explorer onto my document, I'm being prompted (as expected) to decide, whether I want to import the original size image or a resized version. Choosing the high resolution version gives me the full size bitmap to work with on my page.
But as soon as I drag the same image from the bitmap gallery onto my page, I get a downsized version of 1920 x 1280 pixels, which also immediately appears as a copy in the bitmap gallery. Why this happens and if and where I can prevent X9 from doing this?
I cant get this to render correctly in exports to GIF, PNG, JPEG format.
It consists of a fairly large stretched bitmap.Page size is large (A0).
Strangely if I copy the graphic and UN-stretch it I start to be able to render it again.
Currently running designer Pro X, I am finally getting around to trying to build or add additional bitmaps to my gallery so that I can customize my graphics.
