Photoshop :: Illustrator Or Pagemaker?
Feb 1, 2006
So I am getting into page design stuff. Mostly screen viewed, single page documents.
I currently have Photoshop CS. After I design a page, my company sends out the page in .PDF format. However, when I make a page with graphics and text in Photoshop, it looks fine in Photoshop but when I save it as a PDF and open the PDF in Acrobat, the text looks blurry. A friend of mine said because Photoshop makes text in bitmap and if I want text to look crisp in PDF, it has to be vector based text. Code:

I don't have the pagemaker program so I am unable to figure this out for myself. I have a few inmates that work on the prison newspaper, and they are having problems with bringing a picture into pagemaker, and trying to match up colors. If anyone can help that's cool. I tried a few different things with the time I had, but none of them worked.
Problem:
We brought in a picture from Adobe Photoshop 6.0 with the background pantone color of 117 into a document with the same pantone color. The problem is that both colors are correct but they don't match when both placed into pagemaker. It's kind of weird to say the least, but if somebody could shed a little light on the subject that would be great. I would have examples, but it's on another computer locked behind doors I can't get into right now.

I have InDesgin Cs4 and want to open Pagemaker files. I cannot seem to do it. So...I should purchase InDesgin CC and it would do it. So I did....now I have both...and still cannot open old pagemaker files.

I need to make PDFs in PageMaker 6.5 that I can import into CorelDraw12. When making the PDF I have selected "embed all fonts" (I do not have the "convert to curves" option.) but the fonts are not being converted to curves. When imported all fonts display in Corel as artistic type or are substituted. Is there a way to convert fonts to curves in Pagemaker?

I am using CS and this tutorial is not for CS. Also, when I put a newspaper that I made in Photoshop into Pagemaker and tilt the newspaper, the text gets messed up and the lines get crooked and "pixelated".

Havent been around that much lately.
Anyway, ive been working on this logo for a client.
After several revisions, we called it complete.
Now.. the thing is, i made the logo in photoshop but he prefers the logo in Illustrator format. Whats the best way to save the file so i can open it up and probably edit it in Illustrator?

Does anyone have Adobe Illustrator? If yes, what do you think about it... I am thinking of getting it to play around with the graphics etc.
if I bought the download of Photoshop Elements CS2 from the adobe online store, I suppose I still have to buy a full version of Illustrator right, and not just the upgrade since they are different programs?

How would I go about creating a shape with a donut hole in the middle, which contains nothing. I don't want to layer it. I simply want a donut, with, let's say a black fill and a hole in the middle which would allow a photo to be seen. Something like a frame.

first here is my system:
Dell Precision 390
Intel Core 2 Duo
Photoshop CS3 10.0.1, Illustrator CS3 13.0.2 (CS3 Suite)
Windows XP
2 GB of RAM
Roughly 8 GB free HD space
Not sure on video card (how can i check?)
ok, here is my problem:
when i go to File->Open (or Ctrl+O), the Open dialog box opens momentarily (blink an you miss it) and then Photoshop and/or Illustrator freezes. the only way to close it is through Windows Task Manager->End Task.
there is no official error message, Photoshop/Illustrator just simply freezes.
however, and heres the kicker, when i open the files directly from the folder (Explorer) they open fine, i can work seamlessly, no problem. it only occurs when i open from the program itself. i do not know if the other suite programs (Flash, InDesign etc.) have the same problem as i dont use them much.

I'm trying export a vector image from Illustrator CS 11.0.0 to Photoshop CS 8.0. I go through the process outlined in the manual and succesfully export the file. Everything works fine & I retain my layers (if I use CMYK), but my vectors are gone. The manual says I may need a plug-in but I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong. My only options as far as color goes is CMYK, RGB, or Greyscale. I select CMYK and make sure "Write Layers" is selected, but there is nothing there to specify vectors.

I have a page of web art that I have sliced up. One section is a series of buttons. I have the different button states on different layers and I have created slices for each button and then duplicated the slices onto each layer so that every button state has a slice.
But...since the slices associated with a layer don't hide when you hide the layer, it's almost impossible to get at the underlying slices to name them and/or select them for output.

I'm doing a logo for my company and I'm trying to import a PSD file into Illustrator to take advantage of some of the stock brushes. Everything in the PSD file is Text & Vector, so it should import in clean and crisp but it doesn't. Plus I can't find where you can set the DPI/Resolution in Illustrator. Can anyone guide me in this??
Or better yet, is there some custom brushes out there for free that anyone knows about, that will give me a vectorized "water" or "wave" look?

how to connect lines in Illustrator, I have used Micrografx Designer in the past and it allows you to take multiple lines and "join" them so that you can fill inside them.
