I'm creating a brochure in Illustrator, and using an image as the background. The image extends beyond the A4 borders of the artboard.
When I exit the background layer, what setting do I use to only show thecontents within the boundary of the border of the artboard?
My image is overlapping artboard borders,is there any easy way to cut/trim all overlapping objects??

I am creating an image border using the rectangle marquee, and making it jagged by applying a Stylize > Wind filter to it.
Using Wind there is no way to adjust the jagged edges, is there any kind of third party plugin that gives me more editing features?

I want to cut (or copy) a section from an image on my artboard, but I can't see to find a way to do it. For example, in Microsoft paint I can use the select tool to draw a rectangle around part of the image and Copy or Cut that selection into the clipboard and paste it back.
I know I can cut this out and paste it onto an Artboard, but I am curious about the capability in Illustrator.
1.) I dragged out vertical and horizontal guides from the rulers and then created a new art board. The new art board now has the horizontal guides carried over from the first art board. How can I have separate guides on each of my art boards? I am using art board rulers.
2.) Is there a way to layout vertical and horizontal guides on an art board and copy them over to a new blank art board?

I have made a new layer in my brochure document and have set the swatch fill to black with 30% opacity and a red stroke, yet as soon as click on the document with my blob brush, the fill menu gets a red line (no fill) and I get a red dot which is the stroke?

Where it gets moved to is inconsistent- but it appears to always move on a diagonal.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm VERY new with photoshop and I was just wondering (since I'm designing my own website) how to go about creating a section on my page that will have visible borders with rounded corners? Basically just a big square with rounded corners that will have text in it. I don't know if I try and create the borders in Dreamweaver and then use photoshop drawings of the rounded corners or what? Or do I create the whole image in Photoshop?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I'm in the process of doing is creating shapes in Sketchup and exporting them as 2D images. Obviously, those images have a lot of "dead" space around them that I would like to reduce.
I'm able to select a rectangle selection tool and select my image, with the goal of pasting it into a new image which will have much less "white" space around it. My question, is there a more precise way of doing this? I need to cut out an even pixel space, for example, a 128 x 64 (both sides need to be even), how do I know what is the size I'm cutting out? And sometimes it's hard to do correctly do it with my mouse, is there a way to adjust the selection borders with the keyboard instead?
i was wondering if it would be possible to get a plugin or maybe there's a way to do this that would 'blend' the border of one image that you paste on top of another, larger image. so that the borders wont contrast - like a black dot on a white page.
if that description doesn't make sense, imagine using such a tool on a a black dot on a white page. it would make the outer part of the circle transition from black, to dark grey, to a lighter grey, and then to white...
I need to create a glow around the brush in the attached image.
I have created this with (Effects > Outer Glow > White (Screen 90% opacity) > Blur 3mm
I can't say I am particularly impressed with the result. I wanted more of an obvious glow around the image.
I am trying to create a 3d object with depth and lighting that I can export to After Effects for a 3D logo with movement. I assume that this is pretty easy with text or an object created in photoshop but the image I am trying to extrude and make a 3d object is a layer I cut out from a jpeg. I am aware that I can wrap that layer around an object, but I am looking for the cut out object to be 3D. Do I need to convert the cutout layer to a vector? Is there a simple way to do that? Is this possible through illustarator or photoshop?

So far the only method I know is to create sections of text and rotate them individually, but isn't there an easier way that looks more natural? Any methods that can generate a better appearance.

I mean that white border with "scratch".
1st post and new to gimp. this is my 1st attempt at anything with gimp. No previous experience with any other photo editing tool other than Microsoft Paint.
I have a company logo with a white background. I want to make the white backgound dissapear(become transparent) and than create a white border around the graphics in the image. After this editing I will take this edited image and place it on top of a larger image and it will some "pop" and not blend in.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having extreme trouble creating a high-res 3d wrapped image. Here [URL] .... is the image.
You can see that the 3d rendering is only a few points, all smooth curves. My raster effects settings are high (CMYK 300PPI). The symbol image that I've wrapped is a 300PPI JPG file created from Photoshop, saved as a JPG, then placed and embedded in AI. Yet that text is atrocious. You can even clearly see the poor anti-aliasing colors that are going on. Several letters are not able to be read at all.
I've tried rasterizing the object using high res settings, anti-alias on and off. I've tried copy/pasting as a smart object into Photoshop. I've tried almost everything I can think of and I can't get this text to appear crisp on the bottle. It's a simple bottle, only 4 or so points and there are only 3 possible surfaces to map. I deliberately drew it that way to reduce any drag on the system. I'm on a 2009 iMac running Mountain Lion and 16GB RAM, i5.
This issue has plagued me honestly for months and I always end up doing a significant amount of retouching in Photoshop because of it. I'd like to create a crisp 3d wrap in AI if possible to hasten my workflow.
Maybe the answer is that AI isn't really suited and I need to look into a more dedicated 3d program.
I have noticed on several drawings that the multileaders change themselves when the drawing is closed and opened again. I put the multileaders in, they look fine, and when I close and open the drawing the multileader has extended itself across my text. If I edit it it fixes itself but it 'breaks' itself again once I close and open.

But when i put that man on another dark background, i can see a very thin white line around the man, like it was "cut" from another image (which is true...) how do i get rid of this white line around him?
I tried to focus and delete it manually but it is an endless work. I attached the image, do you see the white stripe around the man?
