At my old job, when I exported sketches, it would automatically go to jpeg as jpeg was on top of the list. Now, I have to scroll through a lot of different formats looking for the jpeg format and of course, this takes up valuable time.
I make tech sheets in Illy at my job and need to export just about everything I do in jpeg format, for the benefit of others. I tried looking through the menus, but haven't found the answer yet.
Every time I go to save a scan it defaults to Bitmap and I have to then scroll down and select jpeg. How can I make jpeg the default setting?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm on Illustrator CS5 and are trying to export my artwork to a PDF format in such a way as so others with illustrator cannot open the file and access its layers and pull out the artwork etc.
I click File, "Save a copy", choose PDF I thought that is what unchecking the "Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities" would do it, but when I uncheck it I still have access all the layers when I open the PDF.
Is there another setting I am missing etc? I've tried saving the artwork as a jpg, and doing print export to PDF but I just cant get the same crispness at the optimised file size like I was when doing "Save a copy".
Am I missing a setting or, do I need to do something else to the artwork before saving the PDF?
I have an A0 ai drawing - but cant export as jpeg...?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an MS Word 2011 document with an Excel pie chart embedded.Double-clicking the pie chart will open it in Excel 2011.Copying/pasting the chart into Illustrator CS6 results in an uneditable bit image.
Previously, with Word 2008 and Illustrator CS2, this worked perfectly. Mind you, I had tons of excess empty paths and such to scrape out, but still, after a couple of minutes' scraping, I had an editable .ai file ready to be cleaned up, captions typeset, and colors edited for export to .eps and placement in InDesign
In fact, right now I've had to jump over to my old iBook G4 to open my old copies of Word 2008 and Illustrator CS2 in order to do this so I can get this job out the door.Is there any way at all that I can get an Excel 2011 pie chart into Illustrator CS6 as a vector image?
I've tried the shift-click on "Copy Picture" method, but the pie chart still appears as a bit image, and the text is turned to gibberish. Saving the chart as a pdf returns the same results.
At this point in the project, asking for the raw data set and regenerating the pies in Illustrator isn't an option -- and besides, I've had to do that before. Oh, the pain.
Is there any way to export the overprint preview as jpeg/pdf ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI tried to export a 48x32 inch file as a jpeg at 300 dpi from CS6 (very basic file).
Immediatly got the message that Illustrator was unable to export at this resolution.
So, I opened the same file in CS5 and it exported it under the same settings with no issue at all?
Does this mean that CS6 export is worse that it was in CS5?
See title - is this possible?
I've made this small script to test a few things, before moving on to the bigger stuff (some of it have been cut out, since it's not important):
var exportOptions = new ExportOptionsJPEG();
var type = ExportType.JPEG;
var fileSpec = new File(dest);
exportOptions.antiAliasing = false;
exportOptions.qualitySetting = 70;
exportOptions.artboardRange = "3";
app.activeDocument.exportFile( fileSpec, type, exportOptions );
I'm trying to export artboard #3 as a JPEG. But it doesn't work.
According to the scripting reference guide, most of the "ExportOptions"-functions support the artboardRange-parameter, but alas - JPEG does not.
Is there another way to do this? Right now I'm only getting all the artboards into a single JPEG-file, which is not what I'm searching for
I have a requirement to export each artboard into jpeg programmatic within plugin.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI inherited a document (yes, you heard correctly) that was designed in Adobe Illustrator (I have the CC version). This is a 10 page document with a lot of text and fake tables. Why the original author used AI for this document but now, I wish to convert this document into a more appropriate tool.
I don't know, perhaps I shouldn't be surprized that AI doesn't have much in the way of text based exports (except PDF and pure text)... PDF isn't ideal because it outputs blocks that are out of order, making it difficult to copy and paste into another editor.
Ideally, my preference is either HTML, MS Word, FrameMaker, Robohelp, CHM, or Dita. Is there a super-secret method to export an AI document into one of those formats?
Let me explain my situation: I have a website where I publish my Illustrator documents as exported JPEG files. The website has a certain RGB-color background. And my illustrations have the same RGB-color background. Those two backgrounds have to match perfectly, in order to produce a nice effect. They do match in Firefox 14, but they don't match in Safari 6.
So, I need my exported JPEG files to have browser-independant colors. I read everything I found on the Internet on this topic, but it's just general stuff about Color profiles and the Edit > Colors... menu and color differences between browsers. NOT A SINGLE TUTORIAL on the whole Internet on how to produce browser-independant JPEG files using Adobe software.
Currently, I am exporting my Illustrator documents using an AppleScript, in order to save time:
Export docRef to file (myPath) as JPEG with options {quality:60, optimization:true, antialiasing:true, artboard clipping:true, saving as HTML:false}
But you don't have to give me an AppleScript necessarily. Just give step-by-step instructions on how to do this in Illustrator, and I will automate it myself. I know that PNGs are browser-independant, but I would prefer JPEGs, because the size is smaller.
I have created an image on illusrator CS6 and am ready to save it.
I have saved it as a pdf format and the image stays as a sharp vector image and not blurry at all.
But I also want to keep the image as a jpeg. So when I go to export the image from illustrator CS6 as a jpeg, the end result comes out blurry and not sharp anymore, but more jagged on the edges of the image.
Is there anything I can do to keep my file as a jpeg with it staying as a sharp crisp image?
There seems to be an action called adobe_SaveForWeb, but I can't find any documentation for it.
I need to export an artwork to a JPEG with a fixed size (to create a thumbnail of an Ai file), and i've found several unanswered question on this topic. With Save For Web, I can do it through UI.
a documentation for adobe_SaveForWeb, or tell me how which parameter I need to initialize for it to work? I'm using CS6 SDK with Visual C++
99.5% of the work I do for my employer is grayscale and I'd love to set grayscale as the default setting for export of .tif files from Illustrator, rather than cmyk which we very rarely use. Is there any way of doing this? My co-artists and I generate dozens and dozens of tifs every day, and this would not only be a time-saver but would prevent the occasional cmyk tif from sneaking through (they don't work in the system we use and always must be sent back - wasting more time).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using a Mac. My windows friend sent me a jpeg of a piece of art we're working on. It looked fine in the web browser. It looked fine in Preview when I opened it, and it looked fine in Photoshop. But when I save it from photoshop after adding just a small thing to the image, the whole thing comes out a bit brighter. I have no idea what's doing it. I've tried Save For Web and Save As and it comes out the same each time. I have played with color settings in the past slightly, but it was my understanding that only affected how photoshop displays the image and I wouldn't expect it to change an image I imported then exported again.

Sometimes it is possible to 'escape' from this, but the problem repeats and the only way out is to 'close' the image (the only option available). CS5 then crashes out. (64bit CS5 on Win 7 Ultimate).

How do I export a JPEG file format?
For some reason Gimp 2.8 forces me to save in xcf format. Most times I want to save a file in jpeg or png format. Having to save as xcf, and then export to jpeg or png is a pain in the unmentionables. Especially when reopening the file for editing, requiring another pointless dance with the export system.
Is there some module, upgrade, improvement, fork or other means by which export is merged with save/save as functionality, thus removing the additional steps in the process of saving a file? Ideally it should involve nothing more than hitting Ctrl S for an a file that already has a name. Put another way, something that works the way everything else does.
When I save images in Jpeg format, it can only be viewed on other Mac's and not PC's. Why is that?
People with PC's can only view the images if opened in a browser, otherwise PC's can't open the files. It is very annoying.
What is the best format to save high resolution black and white photographic work? Tiff? JPEG? Also, I'm confused about the Tiff save dialog.
When saving as Tiff, there is a box I can check labeled "ICC Profile: Grey Gamma 2.2". What does this do?
Also, later I'm asked if I want LZW compression. I want as high resolution as possible, file size is not an issue. So I assume I'm not interested in compression.
But is Tiff the best format for me?
Before downloading GIMP I just want to double check that I can import a satellite image, in pdf or jpeg format, as a background which I can draw over with all the available tools.
I also would like to use a grid over the drawing for scale.
