Using one of my fonts I created lettering that has the middle of each character knocked out so that only the outline shows. The trouble is when I create the jpg for the web the color seems to become runny so it looks like its slightly smudged.
View 4 RepliesI had someone code my psd for me and I need to replace a couple of the images.
They've obviously created a transparent gif.
The logo used to be on a dark blue bg but I've changed the bg to white so now the blue bleeding around the edge stands out.
How do I amend it to a white bg?
I'm in hopes there is a technique whereas I can paint within the black areas to remove the white spec without worrying about going over the edge, as I would with a black paint brush. I tried different brush blending modes (screen,overlay,multiply) didn't do the trick.
View 3 Replies View RelatedBit of a strange one, this. In Photoshop CS6, whenever I create a smart object with the intention of resizing it, whenever I shrink it, where one flat colour collides with another, it creates a really ugly "bleed" effect -- kind of the same effect you get when you take a small image and try to make it larger:
I've zoomed in on this particular part to show just how bad it looks. Particularly on the upper part of the forearm, see how it's got a sort of white "halo" before the black outline? It now looks like I drew a slightly darker outline around all the levels of shading, and it looks really bad, almost like a raised/chiselled effect.
Obviously it's not as noticeable when you zoom out, but it's definitely there. I've noticed that the same thing happens when I just resize the whole image using "bicubic automatic", but when I select "bicubic / anything else", the bleed does not occur. It kind of makes the once-incredibly-useful smart object tool kind of pointless now.
This never happened with any other prior version of Photoshop which had smart objects, and I've only just got hold of CS6 a few days ago.
I ve been using Corel for years, but i always have an issue when exporting the file to jpg,png,bmp formats
I always get 1 extra pixel when exporting. E.g. my selected area is 1000 pixels wide, and when i try to export i get 1001.
Read a few info about bleeding settings, but i cant make it work. I currently use X5 and my Page settings show Bleed 0%
I am using CS6 v8.0 and Apple 10.6.8 to produce a 240 page book with many illustrations bleeding off the page. Where this is along the centre line, part of the image appears on the facing page crop area when the file is exported to pdf, which my printer is not happy with. I have tried turning off all options (including compressions) when exporting, which cures the problem but results in enormous file sizes. At the moment, if I reduce the frame for the photograph to stop 2.9mm from the centre line, the effect doesn't happen: any nearer and it does.

View 4 Replies View Related how we can get hatch to not bleed through other solid hatch when we print?
We manually create sketch hatch (not through Section Views) that has a pattern. We then want to place sketched symbols on top of the hatch. Because the hatch is sketched hatch we can't use clipping. We have built into the symbols a solid white fill hatch to simulate the Wipeout in AutoCAD.
Everything looks good in Inventor, but when we print or export to PDF/DWF the patterned hatch bleeds through the solid hatch. The following pictures show how it looks in Inventor.
I have put several drawings into the Publish> DWG>>> PDF mode.
The PDF comes out missing little bits of border lines around circles and elipses as well as some bleeding of colors.
For my business card design I have white text overlapping an area of very white grey- causing readability issues (insufficient contrast). It looks great apart from this one problem, so I still want to keep my white text and light background and fix it by separating the text and background with a darker drop shadow..
First, I added a black drop shadow to the text- but this was not enough to increase readability (text still looked faded on background as drop shadow was too subtle at 85% opacity, 0.04" blur) so I added a drop shadow to my drop shadow (100% opacity, 0.02" blur + 18% opacity, 0.02" blur). This produced a heavier drop shadow effect for my text as desired but, for some reason, the text came out slightly grey in print (offset run). It seems the drop shadow somehow got printed over the text itself to some extent- turning the white text somewhat grey (and so not looking as clean as intended).
How could this dropshadow bleed into the text happen? Is it to do with the fact I added a drop shadow to my drop shadow? I would have thought that, even then, the text should entirely overlap all of the drop shadow as the text is the top layer in the group.
What can I do to ensure that drop shadow does not print over text in any way in future? Do I have to stick to only one layer of dropshadow-or is there something else I'm missing?
I bought Design & Web premium (NL), and I have a question about the spacing between characters in Photoshop. To show it's not a font-problem i used Verdana, Arial and now Tahoma, all with the same problems........I checked, all the text spacing is 0.

What's the most effective way of doing this? (I'm using CS4)
I am trying to superimpose 2 people together from two separate photos. I have limited knowledge of Photoshop. Would the below steps be the easiest & most effective way of doing this?
-Import both photos as 2 separate layers
-Use magic wand tool to split characters up / delete backgrounds
-Place characters on a new background layer
-Edit the light of the characters & background to match each other
-Degrade/enhance all 3 images to match each other
-Touch up edges of characters until blended into background.
I am supposed to be translating a website from english to japanese; having received an Excel document with all of the translated copy, Photoshop refuses to utilise any fonts other than something called 'ms mincho' or 'ms meiyro' (sic).
I want to employ any of the fonts designed for the japanese alphabet which i have researched and purchased online. Photoshop refuses to display these. I have also activated the 'asian fonts' under 'preferences'.
Any decent fonts which will display the japanese alphabet on copy/paste of characters from another application, or is this an adobe photoshop failing.
I need to create a title in large font for a picture. I can create text borders using blending modes and specifying stroke and fill. For a title however, the characters are too close. I can adjust tracking in InDesign and MS Word ... is there a way to do so in Photoshop CS 3?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have some Japanese fonts installed on my cpu and I was trying to use them in PhotoShop (PS) but they don't show up as the Japanese (and other) characters. In photoshop CS2 in the font selection drop down menu you know it gives you a preview of that font using the word "Sample" for that particular font. For example if you were to look at Arial to the right of it the word "Sample" will be demostrated in the Arial font. (yeah that was confusing to type) Well in that dropdown menu it displays in the Japanese characters. However, when I select that font to begin typing it uses normal alphanumeric characters. When i previewed the font in the windows font viewer it is also displays as normal alphanumeric characters.
Example fonts: MS Gothic, MingLIU,SimSun.
I believe all of these are True Type Fonts

Or for that fact a place to find the list of PC Photoshop keyboard shortcuts. Besides the one thats missing from my book.
The spacebar is no longer inserting a space between characters.
I tried switching from my wireless iMac keyboard to my wired Apple keyboard; replaced preference files; booted from several other partitions (that share the same Photoshop app); checked the character palette for kerning and tracking; and tried different fonts.
It may be that I have to trash the preference files and completely reset them... but I sure hope not.I've tried two backup preference files .
I am trying to type Tamil text in Photoshop CS3. I typed Tamil text using Google Transliteration [URL] then pasted in Photoshop, but it is not working. As Google Transliteration uses Unicode, it must work in photoshop as well (if Photoshop supports Unicode).

If photoshop does not support Unicode, how can I type Tamil text in photoshop?
How do I make a work path of a character that consists of a loop (letters O, O, and P in LOOP for example) so that i get the inner and outer walls of a character, take O for example, instead of a solid O?
O (the black area of the O should be filled with smaller text, if it were a work path) When I create a work path of the letter O, it outlines both the inner and outer lines of the letter, but once the work path is created, all I get is a giant SOLID circle, not a work path that has inner and outer walls of the letter O.
I'm working at a new job, on a machine running PS 5.1, running OS 10.8.5 with me set up as a new user on this Mac.
I'm duplicate the file, save as on the documents I'm working on, and these images contain a "." within the name. So, every time I "save as" the file drops the characters after the "." and adds the file extension.
We changed the Finder preferences to show all filename extensions, but that only seemed to work briefly.
I want to create an image like this:
[URL].............
I created text, 2 characters on first line, and then 3 characters on second line. I changed the vertical spacing, so that the characters are overlapping a little. But when I change the blending options for the layer style, I can't get it to look like the link above. I don't want to seperate each character into its own layer.
As soon as i paste Japanese text and click on a different layer, photoshop freezes and crashes. Any thoughts?
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open cs6 photoshop 64 bit
2. Create a new appliaction
3. Add a layer
4. Paste in some japanese text (Sample text - ご旅行中も、安心してワンちゃんをお預けください)
5. Hit enter
6. Click on a different layer (background layer)
7. Crashes with the following error -
