I want to edit the PDF presets I have already set up in Illustrator CS6. They were set up for a specific print job that I no longer need. For the life of me I cannot find an edit button OR a reset to default list button.
Either I am blind or digging too deeply and haven't found it yet but I'm now at an offical loss.
When I go to create a new Document in Illustrator I'll select a default document type like : Mobile and Devices. Then I go down to the different sizes and bam. The problem. I can't pick a default size that "I" want to use. Yes there are preset sizes but none of them are the ones I want to use. Ok there has to be a text file or something that lets me edit/add new document sizes to illustrator. It shouldn't be this hard. I don't own CS6. I'm on an older version of Illustrator right now. I don't know if you guys fixed this in CS6. But it should be like photoshop or indesign. Why it's different baffles me.
This is a JDI if there ever is one. Make all presets in all programs the same (editing wise) and if possible make a preset manager that allows for one preset to be added or edited and all apps see these presets.
I have Lightroom4.2 ~ month & have taking it slow with the DVD-ROM insrtuctions & book. The presets are fine on the left side of the screen; but when I try to access the presets under edit>preferences, they only show the Adobe logo. (I thought I was following the directons from the DVD closely enough, but they are confusing when they mention to have your presets in your catalog.)
I've seen a procedure for LR4, but it doesn't work for LR5 (the LR4 procedure involved right clicking the preset to save from a context menu after making edits to the existing preset).
I'm running LR3 and CS5 on a MBP Lion, and I'm working directly with RAW files. I have adjusted the images in LR and used 'edit in photoshop' to correct blemishes on some photos. I want to apply some presets at the end to render a couple of different looks (B/W and Vintage) to the final edited image. However, I find that after the file comes back from PS, it looks good, but the photo gets 'normalized' and the develop module tools get reset to zero. Hence my presets totally blow the 'edited in photoshop' image while it works just fine on the original raw.
I have also tried to work on the original image prior to any LR adjustments. Same thing, after coming back from PS, both stacked files look similar, but at the time of running the preset, the 'edited in photoshop' file gets blown out.I do not have any auto adjust settings turned on. No presets running on import/export. What am I doing wrong?
When trying to print in Elements 11, after clicking "Print/Page Setup/Presets/Show Presets", the box freezes. Clicking Cancel or OK does not work. I then have to Force Quit Elements to clear it. Apple say that it is a problem with Elements. Using the same procedure in other applications, clicking Cancel or OK does work.
I am having trouble getting my presets to show up under presets on the left hand side of the screen. They are still in develop presets but there not showing up and Ive tried deleting them and adding them again then closing out of lightroom 4 and going back in but I can not seem to get them to show up again. I must have hit something but there not showing up again
I have recenty had to reinstall all my software, and manged to find most of my old Lightroom settings in the Lightroom Presets folder (inside the Appdata folder on a PC) but I seem to have lost my custom tone curves.
Do you know which folder they should be in (indise the Lightroom Presets folder)
I STILL don't understand why there are TWO comminty forums for Lightroom;
I had a lot of good presets and actions that I've come to rely on. Now that I have Illustrator CC, I'm not using it :-( because I can't find where to migrate the presets from CS6 to CC.
One in particular that I need are my Image Trace presets... I have looked for them in the Presets folder, and even tried moving the "ImageTracing.jsx" script from CS6 to CC, but I don't understand how this is supposed to work.
Presets are so much easier to handle in Photoshop!
URL....I am editing thousands of images that need to be exported as High Res .eps's. Is there a way to make [High Resolution] the default rather than [Medium Resolution] ?
I had to reinstall CS6 and am now looking for my old AI Image Trace custom presets. I'd like to restore them if possible from a Time Machine backup so I don't have to recreate a setting, but I can't seem to find where those are located.
I have been trying to convert both Pantone Colors to CMYK and CMYK to Pantones on a few of my projects. I walk throught the steps but nothing happens. My counterpart which has CS5.5 also is able to do it both ways just fine. Is there a pre-set someplace that I need to be aware of?
I am trying to access the edit original (edit with) option to edit a photo that has not been edited yet. I right click and go through the edit menu and does not appear or is not available? Would I have to reopen it manual in photoshop or is there a way around this to access that setting? it sometimes does not appear on my already edited photos.
I would prefer not to open each photo again, as some files i do not have and were imported into the document with another computer.
I made a business card using Illustrator last June, the printing company requested the card be done in .eps
I am now trying to update the business card file I made so I can send it off to a printer once again, however when I open the file now it acts as if the whole image is a single object. I have tried everything I can think of and I really need to be able to edit this file.
I've created a star with the star tool, but I wish to edit the number of points and the radius. It seems like once you create the shape, you can't go back and edit it, you have to create an entire new star. Seems silly that I would have to count how many points I had before and create an entire new star. It should be easy to just select the star and be able to add or subtract points and change the radius, just like when creating a new one, just off of the already created star. I have tried and can't seem to get it to work.
I need to edit some arabic text in Illustrator CC but I can not find the "Adobe World-Ready Composers". find out where to set it up or download the plugin?
I opened a file that was saved as .ai but I am unable to edit it. It's as though it was saved as a pdf (or similar uneditable document). It still has 2 unlocked layers. Why did it save that way and how do I fix it?
I´m having trouble editing images from Acrobat Pro XI in Illustrator CS6. AI is inconsistent in how it saves the new image, sometimes it´s no problem, Acrobat updates the new image and it´s fine. Other times (could be the same image, only seconds later and without changing any settings) it wants me to save the new image on disk...?!
I have a picture of me and i need to edit to have only the contour in vectors, or atleast it should be a black/white vector portrait, because i need to paint it with colors, it should be like te game " color by number".
I created and saved several files today, both as .ai and as .pdf. Then I quit illustrator. Now when I re-open the files, they are opening as .ai* (with the astrisk) and I can not edit them. How do I edit them?
Its really annoying that I cant change the output settings when I save for web something. I just want to tell Illustrator that I dont want to create a new images folder everytime I save something, and I dont want to add a _N at the end of the file name...
Is there a way to change this?, I couldnt find it.
I am trying to edit a menu for my restaurant that a former employee made with illustrator. I downloaded the free trial, and can open my menu, but can't figure out how to edit the content. I just need to edit words, no graphics or anything.
I hired a person to design a business card for me and he sent me the original .ai file for if I ever wanted to make changes or to even submit to printers for printing. I have had the design laying around for a few weeks and finally got some legal stuff done and need to change my title as well as add our web address to the business card, however as much as I try I cannot seem to edit the text. who would even be willing to fix the two small things for me if I sent them the original file?
[URL] .... Shutterstock advertises their layouts to be "fully editable." Is there a way I can edit this text without having to delete it and create my own? Where I could find a tutorial on adding more text that is similar to this face? I need more information added than two lines.
I am very new on illustrator and i want to change the color of an eps image / the problem is that when i select the image, "recolor art" is not available. it is only available recolor with preset i think.
Also i cant select a part of the image with direct selection tool. the image is selected all together with an square and an "x" in the midle.
I want to use the "edit original" function inside illustrator, so my picture will open in photoshop, and the changes I make there will be saved in Illustrator. But when I choose edit original it opens paint - how do I change this? And yes I have checked the link-box when selecting the image. I have windows 7 if it matters.
