Illustrator :: JPG Places Huge At Screen Resolution?
Jul 26, 2013
I have been using illustrator since 1988 and I am not sure why all of a sudden this is happening. I must have clicked the wrong box or something. I save a jpg from my psd file at 5 x 6 inches at 300 dpi. I place it into my letter sized page in illustrator CS5 and it comes out huge. I look at the bar at the top at it says its 72ppi.
Just earlier today, it place fine and viewed like a 300 dpi file. What did I mess up to make this happen all of a sudden.Why is it placing at 72 ppi?
I checked InDesign and it places fine.
I place the psd file and it places fine.
But the jpg places huge at screen resolution.
I understand the difference between print vs screen resolution.

How can I setup screen resolution in CS6 Illustrator, so I can setup to view my artwork at 100% of printing size when I select View/ Actual Size ?
I was expecting a screen resolution setup like such, but nothing there at Preferences / Units or other preference tabs .

Both Adobe Cloud application the applications do not constraint to the screen resoluation, meaning that the Window menu in Illustrator for example has options that are inaccessible instead of creating a scrolling menu within the constraints of the screen.

I am trying to export PDFs of drawings with a high resolution image covering almost an entire A1. I realize of course that the file will be very large but it is much larger than I feel it should, and there are also some discrepancies.
The original image is around 100 MB, but only about half is visible in the viewport, so the PDF should be around 50 MB if there is no compression (only negligible amounts of text and lines besides the image), however if I plot it to a PDF using Adobe PDF, setting the resolution to 300 dpi and medium JPEG compression the resulting file is 150 MB. If I choose 72 dpi and low JPEG compression the file looks very bad and compressed but is still around 40 MB in size. This is far too large considering the amount of compression visible in the image, it looks like a 500 KB file tops.
However if I use the DWG to PDF printer instead of the Adobe PDF I can get a very good looking file at around 2,5 MB. Very suitable for printing, but the compression shows if you look up close in the computer (which is a requirement for these files). The odd thing here is that it makes no difference what resolution I set it to, 150 DPI to 1200 DPI creates the same looking file at exactly the same size. I'd like to be able to create a 2,5 MB file to email and a very high quality file for archivation, but not 150 MB large.
Another odd thing is that if I print another file but with the same type of image (a different facade) with 1200 DPI I get a very high quality file of 40 MB, but if I repeat the exact steps and settings for the first file I end up with a 150 MB file. Of course some differences in the image would account for some of this, but not nearly of this magnitude. I deleting everything from the large file and copying in the content from the small file, and successfully printed a 40 MB file again, so there doesn't seem to be some setting or bug in the file I am printing from, rather something in the original file with the image that I have Xref'ed.
How I would go about creating a very high quality file that doesn't bloat up way more than the original image? A 40 MB file is great considering the images are huge, but I can't get this result consistently.

I have this HUGE maps I have to import to create pan and zooms. The file is a PNG with a resolution of 25000 x 16400px. Smoke doesn't play nice when I import this dil. It's all black and won't render. If there a max file resolution in Smoke? Or is it a problem with PNG files? (I tried with PSD adn it did the same).

I'm running Windows XP with Photoshop CS6. Since the "Save" button runs off the edge of my monitor, I can't click Save. I also can't move the dialogue box up far enough to get to it before running out of screen space. I tried just hitting the enter key, but nothing happened. I end up having to do a control-alt-delete to get out of Photoshop altogether.I've never had this problem before when I had CS2 or with the CS6 I have at work.Is there a way around this?

I'm wondering if it's possible to change the decimal place accuracy to default to only rounded numbers i.e. 1mm instead of 1.325. I want EVERYTHING to snap to the nearest mm (Axis, Dimensions etc.) rather than 1.233 for example.
Yes, I can manually type into the dims / axis boxes everytime but thats a chore.

Illustrator CS6
I want to know if it is possible to get more than 2 decimal places in the Print Scale Percentage option box (as shown below)?
It seems to round to 2 and I would like to get at least 3 for better accuracy.

For the print module it seems as if Lightroom assumes a screen resolution of 96 ppi. My screen is 94 ppi, so the ruler and the prints are shown slightly smaller on the screen than reality. I would like to see the actual print size on the screen. Can the screen resolution be set, like the Unit & Rulers -> Screen Resolution setting in PS?
I am using LR 3.6.

Is there a way to create an object/group in Illustrator and then copy it across one document in multiple places (multiple art boards, etc.) - allowing the designer to then update the original and seeing the changes cascade to all copies?
I know this can be done using InDesign by linking an Illustrator file and making subsequent updates to that Illustrator file. But I do not want to use InDesign, I want to use Illustrator. What I want is much like creating Symbols in Flash, updating one will cascade throughout the file.

I am redesigning my website. and i know when yo design for a certain resolution youave to take a few things in consideration. I know that even if the res. is set to 800x600 you loose a lot of space due to the toolbars, scrollbars and windows status bars so you woul effectively have to set the image parameters at something like 740x420 or something (please correct me if inaccurate)
so what i wanted to know is... what is the modified size for a screen resolution of 1024x768?
also should i design for the 800x600 people or for the 1024x768 people?

I am running CS4 on an 8 processor, 3 GHz machine with an nvidia fx3700 and a screen that offers 2600 x 1900 resolution. With all this power, the package is much slower than CS3 on a lap top. One can actually see the action of one's paintbrush trailing centimetres behind the cursor.
Well, we can perhaps live with this, with the leaping menu bar and the many other oddities until Adobe fix the thing. However, what isa truly hard to accept is that it is impossible to resize the tool icons, symbols on the tool bars, silly menu stud-type things of floating menu items so as to allow work at high resolution. Drop down menus follow what we have told Windows to apply, and are thus legible. Anything in the application GUI is, however, invisibly small at 2600 x 1900, Even MS Office 2000 - ten years old - allows you to resize the icons and tools, for heavens sake, but it appears that a modern package that is aimed explicitly at people who work with images cannot do so. It all seems deeply retrograde, an instance where 'new' equals 'worse'.
Perhaps I have missed something: so does anyone know how to resize the various menus and tools so that they can be read without a magnifying glass?

I'm creating a huge Illustrator file, 16383 by 12288 pixels. This happens to be the maximum width that Illustrator will allow.I can export this size as a TIF, no problem. But I'd also like to export this file at 2x size, 32766 x 24576.

Recently I upgraded fo Illustrator CS6 and found something that is going to screw up my working with clients. The problem is that the .ai and .eps files are having really huge size (67MB on an average). I have used about 6 images (jpeg at 1024x768, less than 1MB each) made them as pattern in the swatches panel and applied on various shapes. The .ai file size is 109MB :O :O :O . Another ridiculous thing is that an art that contains only 3 lines of text plus some circles and squares (3 circles, 2 squares) filled with solid color is around 68MB.
how to reduce the file size without compromising on the pattern quality.

I have a 1920x1080, 17.4 laptop. That is approx 126.6 ppi screen resolution if my calculkations are correct...So in order to set PS to display real size of the images according to the zoom, I go to edit / preferences / units & rulers and set the screen resolution to 126.6 instead of the default 72ppi.
But nothing changes...what am I doing wrong? 100% zoom is still showing much larger image than real (as if 72ppi screen resolution was unchanged). I have tried extreme ppi like 10 and 1000 to see if anything chaged but still nothing, I have restarted Ps and the laptop, and the preferences are correctly saved but zoom still wrong..

Buying a laptop for photoshopping (15,6 inches), is there a huge difference between 1366x768 resoluton VS 1920x1080 resolution?
There is a huge difference in the prices when looking for a bigger than 1366x768 resolution. The question is whether it makes a big deal, or should we just compromise for lower resolution for a great processor/RAM combination.

I am using VS X2. I am trying to create a DVD of my project. I have assembled my files/projects, created a menu, and previewed. This is as far as I can get. The prompts at the bottom of the page are not displayed properly. I have a "back" prompt in the lower left and it looks like there is the start of a prompt in the lower right. I have adjusted my screen resolution to no avail.

I am not yet an owner for VideoStudio. This program is on my short list of software I wish to use for screen capture (creating a series of tutorials for an online classroom) and I have to be able to produce these items in a minimum of 720P 16x9 format (Ideally would like to grab at 1080P but 720 is my absolute minimum requirement). Can VideoStudio do this for me? Do I need a specific capture/video card to be able to acquire at a 720P resolution?
I have a background in broadcast television in my day job, (I edit on Quantel and Apple FCP) and what I like about this software is that it's an "all in one" solution.
PS. running Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit, 8GB RAM, NVidia GeForce9600GT card

Strange bug: CS4 or graphics driver? At one resolution (1280 x 768) only, the following happens. Select the combination of Cntl M to get the curves adjustment panel and instead you get the Eyedropper, and the program locks up. "I" also gets the eyedropper, but it doesn't lock up. Select curves through the menu and the same thing happens: eyedropper, all menues grayed out, Cntl Alt Del to kill the CS4 process.
The other resolutions that the screen can handle - up to . 2560 x 1600 - work nominally.Windows build - v.5.1.2600.2.Service Pack 3Attached monitor - HP LP3065 Wide LCD Monitor (HP)Graphics card NVIDIA FX 3700

I have AutoCAD 2012.
When it launches, I get the following:
"AutoCAD requires 1024 x 768 resolution or higher to run"
I have a newer laptop (Dell Precision M6600: +/-Jan this year). The screen resolution is set at 1920 x 1080 (the recommended setting). On any other program, the screen resolution is fine, everything works.
If I try to launch AutoCAD, the screen takes on a noticeably lower resolution to the point where I can not select commands from the screen, some commands don't "fit" and are therefore missing. It took a while to figure out how to even close out of the program to go back to other versions that work.

I know CC definitely won't work, but I'm on a 13 inch Macbook Pro. The system requirements for CS 6 state you need 1280 x 900, but mine is 1280 x 800! Will the software be buggy and messy? Or will it run alright? Also, I have an external monitor which I can lug to work tomorrow, and that definitely has enough pixels, but I'd really prefer not to do that! Is any success with these dimensions?

I am making very detailed artwork in Illustrator that ultimately has to be uploaded to a website as a pdf file. This artwork takes ages to save and when converted to pdf format, even at the lowest quality pdf, the files are huge. What is the best way to get the file size down? Turning the files into low res jpegs somewhat defeats the purpose of making detailed vector art in the first place.
The artwork has a lot of repeated elements that could be turned into symbols but I'm told this doesn't fix the problem of huge pdfs.

I'd like a desktop wallpaper which will fit a screen resolution of 1440x900. Simple background of black marble/industrial steel etc.
Then on the background I'd like the attached photo in the center. However can the image have an effect as if the outline been engraved into the "marble" background?

I could edit an existing PDF made by another company, just change a few lines of text. The original file was around 3 mb. I add in a website, extension to the phone number, switch out the fax (That's it!) and save as a new version. It's now almost 30 mb. Why?? My work email won't let me send something of that size.. I tried saving as smallest file size w/ preserving editing and it came out to be 15+ mb.

I just upgraded from VS Pro5 to VS Pro 6. Will not launch.
Get error msg "Screen resolution size is not sufficient to launch the application"
Screen resolution is currently set at 1366 x 768 which is "recommended" I have reset resolution and restarted with each attempt at changing resolution... still get message..
Not a happy camper... Seems they should be sophisticated enough to check that system is set properly.... and if not, to give information on how to correct.
