I don't want a greeting card template. I can create the cards just fine. I just want an action to create an image of a greeting card. I've scoured the net and can find actions to create business cards, book covers, magazine covers, ..... but none to create greeting cards.
I hurriedly photographed the text in a greeting card and have uneven lighting and underexposure that I'd like to correct. Please see attachment, in which I've increased the brightness and contrast and then desaturated.
I've looked at tutorials on gradient contrast masks but I get lost part way through. Either I'm too much of a newbie to understand (highly probable) or maybe the tutorials are for older versions of GIMP. (I'm on 2.8.6 for Windows.)
I have Elements 9 and created a card in bi-fold format and cannot figure out how to get it to print in that format. I have a Dell V715W printer. Photoshop help is not useful. I am trying to figure out if I need to print add a blank page to the front and print two pages to one sheet (front and back) or something else. There don't seem to be many options when printing or edit options to the file/project/card within Elements 9.
I want to use a different size than the templates. The size is A2 which is half of a 8/12 by 11 paper then folded in half. (that way you can print twocards per page). I want to be able to resize my image to fit this size, add text to the front half with the image and a little text on the back.
I have selected the Shutterfly 2 sided card template and completed all of the card layout. When I try to print, Photoshop Elements 10 wants to print the card as 3 separate pictures. Under Create, pages, it shows the correct layout, but I can't get it to print out that way. When I select print it shows the card as 3 separate photos and prints them out that way. How do I get this to print out as a 2 sided greeting card?
I purchased elements 11 last year to not only edit photo's but also to create my own greeting and announcement cards.I'm having trouble figuring out how to create a greeting from scratch. It seems as if I can only use Adobe's templates. Is there any way I can create my own?
I don't want to print it off my home computer and I don't want to shell out big bucks to Shutterfly. I just want to make it a jpeg so I can go to CVS and print it as a picture.
i created a double sided greeting card (5x7) portrait and selected email attachment under share tab. The result was two separate files. First file was the front of the card and second file was the inside of the card. Not resembling a card. Is there any way to share a card and have it resemble the actions of a real card. (ie: front of card shows first then by clicking next or open or ?? u see the inside of the card?)
I have gone throught the laboring process of photo shopping two photo's to use in our greeting card and I need to scale them down to fit greeting card.
I want to print a folded greeting card from the templates offered by Photoshop Elements, but the printing process requires you to essentially print three things: front, left-hand greeting and right-hand image. It doesn't have one template for just the front and back and another for the inside.
Cannot find any additional templates for project creator. Quite a limited selection. Would prefer a completely blank page (Cover & inside) so that I can create an image in it's entirety elsewhere & load it as an image. Am trying to find the template in the project creator folder so that I can edit it & make it completely blank. If no one knows where I can download one that is already blank, how to edit the file that the existing templates are using?
It's enabled me to add an Edge Animate file to my responsive Wordpress site using the Edge Suite Plugin.
Only problem for me is that although the 3.7MB file I’ve created scales perfectly on all devices it struggles to play on smartphones. (I assume it's too big and too power hungry to play smoothly on smartphones - even since I've added a pre-loader.)
So, in an ideal world, what I need is a separate low res Edge Animate file that only plays on smartphones.
Failing that, I’d be happy with a 'Down-level Stage' image which could replace the Edge Animate animation.
For a moment I thought I’d found a solution when I came across this Adobe TV movie: [URL]
Unfortunately this clever solution only works when the new Responsive Scaling feature is NOT selected. As soon as it is selected, the animation no longer changes from one layout size to another when the browser window is reduced.
I don’t mind whether the fix is in Edge Animate, Wordpress or the Edge Suite Plugin - I just want a solution!
Artwork becoming deformed after scaling or moving it?
I attached a screenshot of a piece of clipart that I scaled down twice with the original showing on top. You can see in the art in the middle position that it's been changed while the original size and smallest size seem to be fine. They are all the same, copy, pasted and rezied.
It's happening very often, and once it does I end up having to re-import or redraw the art.
how line art changes when scaling object in AI CC? For example I have a logo file to deliver to client that doesn't have the font. In AI CS6 and below you can hold the shift key and resize objects smaller and keep the shape's intergrity. I've noticed in AI CC that resizing fonts converted to paths smaller does not hold the characters shape as well as previous versions of Illustrator. I understood the industry practice of converting fonts to paths as the last thing to do prior to shipping out a design to production. But what happens to logo files that get sent out to clients/vendors, for these files it is paramount to keep the shape intact.
When I tried to scale an object to more than 200%, I kept getting the message that this would make some objects too large. I tried making my artboard larger but still got the same message. Am I doing something wrong?
I know, I know. This question has been asked a million times already. Unfortunately the Align New Objects to Pixel Grid / Snap to pixel grid tip doesn't work for me. When I scale the image down to tiny proportions, the path becomes horribly, sickeningly distorted. It certainly seems like the pixels are being snapped to some kind of grid, but as you can see in the screenshot, the option is disabled. I tried switching between RGB and CMYK with no luck but I havent messed with the document profile past that. I am not yet ready to spend another few hours recreating the image.
I am using Illstrator CS6. Everything except the "web studio" is a path.
Is there a way in Illustrator CS6 to scale text inside a text box so that the text and box scale together proportionately? Not using the scale tool where you have to enter percentages, but using a keystroke. In Quark, you can do this by holding down Command + Shift and dragging the box. This will make the text and box bigger keeping the same dimensions. It's a very quick and easy way of changing the size of your text.
I am working in 5.5 and have a 3D revolved globe object with a map art applied. It is currently in A2 art board size and I need to increase to A0. When I scale the object I get "The combination of artwork size and resolution exceeds the maximum that can be rasterized." I have tried adjusting the rasterize setting and the map art.
My shortcut for scaling has turned off and I can no longer scale by clicking on the bounding box and dragging the arrow. Instead I have to go to the transform option inorder to scale . How do I get the shortcut where I can just click on the object back? I am on CS5
I can't get certain graphics to scale down correctly correctly.
Take a look at the 2 jpegs enclosed - one solid, the other with 1px outline. The graphic men were originally 40mm tall.
In each case the one on the left is the original. The one on the right is the same graphic reduced to 25% then enlarged to 400%. Both should look the same.
How to stop these distortions from happening? I've tried adding and releasing Compound Path, Grouping and Ungrouping, Selecting and deselecting 'Scale Stroke and Effects'. No combination works!
I'm especially confused about 'Scale Stroke and Effects'. Surely when it's selected, the outline should reduce to 0.25 px. It doesn't - it stays at 1px.
