Illustrator SDK :: Convert Raster Image Through Script Into FXG Format File
Jan 5, 2012
We need to deploy Adobe Illustrator on the server and then call it through script so that it could convert raster image provided through script into FXG format file. The implementation is for commercial use. What is the process and possibility of getting license.
I am attempting to convert a proprietary image format to a dng file. What value do I use for the PhotometricInterpretation in my main image if it came from a black and white camera?
I am creating clothing and my fashion designers created the pattern in adobe illustrator. Now the contract manufacturer wants a DXF-AAMA format, which is the file format developed by the American Apparel Manufacturers Association in an attempt to solve the difficulties of using DXF files when creating clothing/apparel. How can I do this? I have already created a prototype and printed the fabric/pattern using the AI file (this was done in NY), but the contract manufacturer I am using seems to want this DXF file in the AAMA format.
cs6 image trace of psd raster file to vector (preset black & white) comes out just GREAT. but i need all that cs6 output - all black must be white. all output white must be black.
I was working in Illustrator CS6 I had made a a bunch of vectors for a background and grouped them. I applied a blur to the group and was still editing the vectors within the group since then. After I saved and closed my file at the end of the day and opened it the next day my vector group is now solid. It seems like it is just a raster image? I can't edit it at all. How can I get it back? If I can't change it back I am going to have to start again!
to convert a rather large & complicated logo in .PSD format to a Vector file, I have PS CS2 & IR CS2. Is there any way I can do it using what I already have without using the pen tool?
Running AutoCAD 2004, XP Pro...I have inserted our company logo into the title block as a Raster image. The logo is png, and I have tried retaining the path and not retaining the path with the same result. After saving this as a template, I reopen as new sheet to start a drawing and the logo is now the path name.
I have tried downloading and installing the Inventor LT trial twice now but for some reason I keep getting errors and it won't run. convert the attached .dwg files to both .stp and .igs file format?
I am trying to convert a dwg to eps format for use with Adobe Illustrator. I've tried exporting as eps and using conversion software but the output is incomplete and of poor quality with both these options.
I am using a tiff file as a Raster Image Reference while drawing over it in AutoCad LT for mac. The raster file is 8200 x 5700. If I examine the autocad drawing by zooming in closely the alignment is perfect. However, when I create an A0 pdf file of the drawing there is an alignment error between the raster image and the vector drawing on the x axis. The y axis alignment is perfect.
I believe it is a scaling error since there is no visible alignment error on the left hand side of the drawing and the error increases across the drawing to the right hand side. The error is small, about 0.2% but it is clearly visible in the pdf file.
To illustrate the problem I have put a test mark on the top right hand corner of the drawing outline and the attached file shows this portion of the drawing in autocad on the left and in the pdf file on the right.
I have tried different drivers and plot settings but the error is always there.
I have this idea to place a raster image from Photoshop into Illustrator, and to have an array of Illustrator shapes over this placed image, to clipping mask the raster image with the shapes, and then to move the shapes individually, each one retaining it's section of that raster image which it clipped.
I believe I'm getting the clipping part to happen, but when I move the shapes with the Direct Selection tool, the clipped contents doesn't move with it.
I think that all of my shapes, taken as a whole are clipping this raster image...am I barkin' up the wrong tree here?
I am using Premier Pro CS5.5. I want to know if I can import a .mts file and use Premier to convert it, or save the file as, a .mov, .wmv, .mp4 or other video file format?
My designer just sent me some background texture files in jpg format but they actually need to be in png. Am I able to convert these jpg to png without losing quality, or do I need to ask her to generate the png from the original file?
I just got a fresh install of Illustrator CC and every time I place a raster image into my document, it appears dim or very light. When I go to export the image, the PNG file displays the image correctly.
I have just begun using Illustrator CS6. I have a very simple image (.png file) that I would like to annotate with some arrows and some text. This file is what I guess you would consider a raster image (no vector graphics) that has a very limited color range. It has less than ten basic colors plus a gradient fill (shades of gray) in a few places.
I want to use illustrator to annotate this image with some lines with arrows and some text, but first, there are a few stray lines that I would like to eliminate. For example, there is a black line that I would like to "erase" by replacing all the black pixels in this line with white pixels. I tried to do this by selecting the "Paint Brush" tool and then selecting white as both my fill and my stroke color. After doing this, I position the cursor over the pixels I want to change but the cursor appears as a circle with a line through it, and it doesn't do anything.
In the old days (15years ago) we scanned a lot of files to DXB, and simply imported the image into the .DWG as small objects. (I believe they were treated as polyline segments). The lines from the original scan became a series of small polyline segments (not joined) but the scanned image plotted as good as the original, and even better, the objects could be erased and a "hybrid" drawing created without xrefs or "embedded" raster files. You could manipulate the scanned objects with normal autocad commands, and they existed on Layer 7.
Now, I am forced to Import a TIFF and "embed" the object (if I want it to be a permanent part of the drawing), and edit it with seperate programs like Raster Design.
QUESTION: How to convert a "embedded raster image" into a DXB image?
The scanner used to do the work for me and save the image as DXB. It was not a "vectorization program", but the raster lines became small (not joined) polyline segments in the process.
I don't want to "vectorize" with a seperate program, because then it just "traces" with a zero-width polyline.
The old scanner used to save to DXB, now I don't even see that as an option.
Any words of wisdom about creating a "scan" that can become "objects" (even small dots) INSIDE the DWG file, instead of a "Raster Image" that has to be xref'ed or "embedded", and will not even plot to a DXB or HPGL format?
I have mostly TIFF files that I would like to "convert" to DXB, and not have to re-scan them. I hate that the Raster file is treated as a seperate xref or "embedded" Raster Image.
I KNOW we used to scan directly to DXB and bring in the objects with the DXBIN command!

Faced with a problem: illustrator CS5 refuses to save the file in eps. format. Ai. and pdf. formats saved, but eps. - no. I don't no what to do? Win 7, Adobe Suite CS5.5
