Lightroom :: Eliminate Background When Printing To JPG?
Aug 26, 2012
Is there a way to eliminate the background surrounding the image before printing to a jpg? Currently, I print to a jpg then use another app to crop all the black (my background color) from around the actual image. Surely there's a way to not print the background and limit the file to just the image without having to resort to using the fixed image sizes. Does such a thing exist in LR4.1?
how I would make the background in my image completely disappear. I already have the background on my image transparent, but with a flashy orange background this so-called transparent background displays a grayish color. I want the background of my image to be completely eliminated and let the flashy orange flow thru it. I am missing a step here somewhere I know it. I am using Photoshop CS and when browsing online I saw mention of "alpha 1". Perhaps this will eliminate the background from my image completely, but I am unsure. The image is a GIF and PNG, so it is possible.
Sometimes when I print to a jpg all I get is the background color. I can't see any pattern as to when this occurs and when it doesn't. (LR4, Win7, original files are CR2) ?
I am new to GIMP. I have a pdf with a neat picture and want to eliminate some text, essentially painting over it in the same color of the rest of the red background. Then I want to turn it into a powerpoint template with the first page the full picture but my own text and subsequent pages just a sliver of the picture at the side, with the normal ppt format and capabilities. I have attached the image.
How to I return to the original workspace without PP? I've pressed "reset all settings" along with a number of other failed attempts and the white background screen is still there along with the dialogue box giving me options, none that I am interested any longer.
I did a filter/sort across 100's of folders then exported the results to a separate folder. I later noticed way too many duplicates in the new folder. Does Lightroom have a feature to automatically remove or eliminate duplicates when doing such a process?
How do I convert the colour profile of a Lightroom custom printing package from Adobe Prophoto to sRGB before printing? For that matter, how do I save the thing? I have no interest in saving the template, or the collection separately, since neither has any use without the other. And without saving them as one finished item, I have no way to convert the colour profile of that item. I can see clearly from the appearance of the print preview that the above mentioned colour profile conversion is required.
When using Photoshop CS, I've arranged text on a white background and saved it as a variety of file types (.jpg, .tif, .psd, etc.) and used RGB and CMYK color profiles. On screen it looks correct but when I print it, it comes out with a tan colored background. I've tried both a large scale plotter and a small color laser printer and get the same result.
I have a trouble with my photoshop background and i don't know what...
When i create a document in my photoshop cs3 with white object or white background, when i print on my laser or ink jet, it print with maybe 1 or 2 percent of red...i try in rgb or cmyk but it's the same thing.
For some reason, when I am plotting on some drawings, the HP Designjet 5500 is printing out a tan background. I've tried copying and pasting into a new drawing, which has fixed it before, but not this time. I'm using Autocad 2008. 20120919_143304.jpg
I have an Imac with Mountain Lion, CS5 and have just replaced my Epson R2400 with an R3000. Now the white background round the image is covered in small cyan and light grey dots. If the image fills the paper, then the margin is affected. But when trying to proof colours I am going through loads of paper as I cannot now print a smaller image on a larger piece of paper, then re-feed the same sheet through with another small image as the paper is now pale blue.
The R2400 was fine for proofing, as the image alone would print and then the printer fed through the remainder of the sheet without printing, leaving the rest of the paper white. I understood from that , that it was most likely a Photoshop issue and some sort of conflict with the Paper profiles. But, I have checked the profiles on my Mac and they are all version 2 profiles. I note that the few profiles that do work without the blue colour do have 'bkpt' in their profiling and that the ones for the paper I actually do use and in fact the majority of the profiles, do not contain 'bkpt'.
I am fairly new to PSE and I want to create an oval vignette in Photoshop Elements 10 with transparent background for printing on white paper using MS Publisher. Using the white background on inverse selection makes a slight line impression and either it should have a defined "frame" or nothing.
My signature block with personal info appears when I post a question. How can I eliminate this? This question was sent via email where I erased signature block as a separate step.
When I erase in Photoshop part of a drawing, gray rectangles appear. How can I eliminate them? In other words: every time I erase something, text or drawings, those gray rectangles appear. Is there a way to erase something leaving that part just white, so there I can write or draw whatever is needed?
Back in the late 60s and 70s I had a 8mm video camera. One of those take 50' of film and send it off for developing. In the 80s I got my first talky Hi8 video camcorder. Back then I had to set up a screen, set my camcorder next to the projector and shoot away. Now I am transferring these videos to DVD so I can open them in VS X3. As might be guessed there is a lot of flicker in the videos.
Is there any way to Eliminate this flicker during post edit in VideoStudio X3?
I had a request come in this morning to generate a spread sheet with all PI's along a route with angles greater than 20°s. Using Civil 3d 2011 I thought the PI station report or any of the reports for that matter would tell me the turned/deflection angle for each PI. However, I have discovered I can get coordinates, bearings etc. but no angles. How to spit out a PI report showing the turned angle for each PI?
I recently started an internship with a company who makes radiators for power transformers. The first task they have given me is to clean up their plant layout file. The file currently has 125 layers in it due to machine blocks dragging in unwanted layers whenever they bought new machines. (presses, rolling machines, powdercoating, welding, ect...) I have been having trouble getting rid of and simplifying their floor plan. I tried creating blocks for each group of machines and changing the layer of the block to the desired layer. This seems to change the block to the right layer, but it still references to the other layers it was previously in. I want to keep the separate colors that show different parts of the machines, but I still need to eliminate the unwanted layers. Is there any way to consolidate the layers while keeping the different colors within the blocks I tried to create?. They have me working on Autocad 2006.
Somehow, in some way, I created a floating toobar for the layers manager. When I click on the layers property button, a "floating" version of it appears. I can close it, dock it, auto-hide it, etc., but can't get rid of it permanently.
I'm using LT 2011, which feels odd after two decades of running the "full strength" versions.
When I create a picture with my (Nikon) camera in the TIFF format, it appears that the picture file contains in addition to the full blown picture, a reduced version of the picture, something like a large thumbnail vrsion of the picture. I found it by trying to create a PDF file of the .TIFF file - Acrobat created a two page file, one with the full picture and one with the reduced picture. It looks that I can't tell the camera not to embbed the thumbnail version.
how to eliminate that thumbnail version from the .TIFF file. Must be somewhere (hopfully one) location in the file that when modifying it it eliminates the thumbnail picture from Acrobat's view into the .TIFF file.
As to the question why not simply erase that undesired page from the PDF file - the answer is that I actually going to assemble many (hundreds) such pictures into one PDF file. Acrobat will put all those pictures such that each main picture will be followed by its own thumbnail and therefore I will have to select manually each single thumbnail page before erasing them, extremely tedious. If I could process it at the individual .TIFF file as describrd above, I could easily write a program that does this modification to all my .TIFF files with one invokation.
I have a graphic of a card design and have added a graphic that goes off the outside border on the card. I've included a snapshot of the card showing the ribbon running outside the border. How do I eliminate (trim off) the part outside the border?
I'm using photoshop cs6 to create textile designs, and occassionally, (it hasnt happened with every tile) when i change the image size of my tile e.g. from 15cm sq to 10cm sq, then try to repeat the tile it forms thin lines between the tiles?
heres the tile repeated after ive changed the image size and you can see the thin lines...when i zoom in on the tile edges where the line has formed it looks like this....almost as if theres empty pixels that can then be coloured in.
i dont think its a problem when creating the tile because before i changed the image size it repeated fine with no lines, its something thats happeneing when the image size is altered.
