View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do a quick project for work and I can't seem to get vertical text to work how I want it to in Gimp 2.8. Gimp 2.6 did vertical text by just typing what you wanted and rotating the layer. With that same process in 2.8, the text rotates, but the layer doesn't. Which means the rotated text gets cut off. Furthermore, when I try to change the size of the layer, Gimp decides it has to undo the rotation first. It's beyond frustrating at this point. Especially because this is such a basic thing to do.

Go to File > Dialogs > Choose Layers or just hit CTRL-L. This opens up the Layers Dialog (or window).
The problem is there is no dialogue option in file. I do not know what to do.

I have tried several things that I know of in PS CC, but when I upload it to my website I get the text siting on a white background, thus my site background does not show through.
Created 4' x 8' artwork in illustrator for a vinyl banner (w/my company logo, tagline & images). Saved file as a PDF and sent to printing company. Just received banner and everything looks great, except our Logo/tagline... they look grainy as if either it was a JPG or I'm thinking the logo/tagline did not link up and the low quality place holder printed? Either way, I'm trying to find out if it is something the printing company messed up or if it's something I messed up—and if it was my fault, how to avoid this in the future.
Logo with tagline was created in illustrator.I did not "Place" the logo & images in the banner file. Rather I opened the files in illustartor and "Drag & Dropped" them in the banner file.Converted the text of Logo with tagline to "outlines".Then saved as PDF from illustartor.
The picture below is hard to see, but you can really see it best at the top of the "t" as if it was cut out with a polygonal lasso tool.
My office has two desktop printers, both HP. Our Officejet 7000 wide format prints great. On the HP Officejet 7500, we are often seeing text printing errors. It will not print the text from vertical dimension strings, and cuts off some M-text at an imaginary vertical line in the middle of the text box. PDF's of the same drawing look fine. Is this a printer driver issue? Is there anything I can do within AutoCAD?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have detail drawings that contain horizontal and vertical dimensions. They're drawn at full scale in model space and saved as individual drawings. We then insert them as blocks onto a sheet in paper space, scaling them down to 1/2", 1/4" scale ETC.
Here's the problem - all the vertical dimension text appears bolder than everything else when scaled down. Horizontal text is just fine, diagonal text also looks a little bolder though.
The Inset Spacing settings within the Area Type Options drop-down are just too cumbersome. Is there an easier way to center text within a text box like we can do in InDesign? Why they left this out of Illustrator CS6.
View 2 Replies View Related(CORELDRAW X6.3) Today I tried to export a .jpg file (text file) for a banner that was 6ft x 18ft. The export function wouldn't allow the 18ft, but changed it to like 9ft.

I could export the file as a .pdf and it worked just fine.
The question is, is there a maximum export size?
I know how to make a solid straight line using the pencil tool. I know I can create a shape with a border using stroke and select area. But...
How do you make a straight vertical dashed (dotted) line?
Something about paths and holding down the shift key, but that doesn't do anything, no line shows and it doesn't like "snap" to a vertical position.
I'm trying to make a dotted line to be line a guide line for cutting when you print the image out on paper. Like the perforated line on a movie ticket or boarding pass.
I am using GIMP 2.6.11 (portble app). I took a source TIFF (56MB) and scaled it to 1 inch width, then I created a transparent background by creating Alpha Channel then using FUZZY tool then I CLEARED the background. I then saved to PNG with compression 2. The image looks OK in Windows Viewer but when I put it in an IMAGE control in MS Access 2010 I see thick vertical bands in the blue lettering of the logo.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'd like to create three bordered/round-corner boxes (containers) for text, across a web page. But I'd like them not to just be flat in a row. My idea is to put the text in each three in-a-row boxes and them somehow turn the boxes(containers) out slightly like loovers (like vertical window blinds), so they look a little more interesting. The text wouldn't then be viewed straight-on but look like it's at an angle because of the loovered containers that the text is in.
