I've just read your article on 'Cleartype Text in IE7'. I am a user experience designer/art director who regularly creates visual designs of websites in Adobe Photoshop CS3.
I have a question that I am trying to find out the answer to, which is proving to be quite the mystery/problem.
Here's my question: Is there anyway to mimic clear type displayed in an IE7 browser, in Photoshop CS3 (on a PC)?
As you probably know there are 4 different options of anti aliasing text in Photoshop, but none of them truly represent how the text will appear when it's been coded up and displayed in IE7.
trying to get a smooth motion blur kind of effect that I saw in an ad once. I want to try it on some of my own stuff, but Im not doing it right. The concept is there but I want the lines of motion crispier.
I have a vector shape (which is simply four rounded rectangles) that I have converted to a 3D object,now you can see I've angled the flat plane so it's a little oblique, but what I want to do now is map the 'face' of the extruded shape so instead of lying on a flat plane, the plane itself is warped like a sphere. Â Imagine taking these 'chicklets' and pressing them onto a bowling ball instead of lying on a flat table.Is there any way to do that in CS6 or am I going to have to do this in another 3D application?
Is there a way I can edit the registry so that in Adobe Bridge, under edit, preferences, file type associations, the jpg extension is forced to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop? I can do it manually, but is there a registry key i can export to apply it to multiple computers?
Since applying the latest Microsoft updates to XP/SP3 last week I can now no longer add Open Type 1 or Type 1 fonts to Fonts in Windows, and therefore can't add more fonts for use in Photoshop CS3. I tried a new hard drive, reloaded with XP/SP3 plus updates and the exact same thing occurs. Any of those types of fonts I try to add come up as corrupt/can't load, when in fact they are not corrupt and the exact same font files load with no problem in another XP/SP3 machine that hasn't had the updates applied, and they also load without a hitch in a Vista machine. Anyone else, who has all the updates installed noticing this? Anyone have a solution? I know that this isn't exactly 100% related to Photoshop only, but it does affect the program.
Trying to use the Adobe email to send attached photos. After attaching the photos and before sending the email I am trying to type in text in the message area, but it will not let me?
In creative cloud i selected English (Arabic enabled) as a preference. I reinstalled Photoshop because I had already installed Photoshop with English as a preference. I still can't type joining Arabic letters. How to type joint Arabic letters in adobe Photoshop / illustrator?
I have the Adobe Font Folio (Open Type) but I don't know where to start. I do a lot of small ads and so I use a lot of small type.
Does anyone know which fonts in this pack are good for small type? Maybe something thick that will look better at a smaller font size.
I've tried going through the fonts by highlighting the font name in the box and using the arrow keys to rifle through them, but as you know, it highlights what's on the page, making it near to impossible to see how the font would actually look if it weren't highlighted.
I batch renamed a bunch of photos in adobe bridge and renamed them as SaraJ._01 etc. and they were saved as a strange file type that I can no longer open?? Document type just says _35 or whatever number the file is. They are just white files no thumbnail preview nothing...
I had Photoshop CS6 installed and working on my Mac using Adobe Creative Cloud. However now a dialog appears that says "Help Improve Adobe's Product". Regardless if I approve this dialog or not Adobe Photoshop starts up with every menu option grayed and I can do nothing. I have to force quit the application. At this point it is 100% unusable.  I've googled it and seen others with a similar issue but no solutions found. I have OSX 10.8.3.  Others with similar issues. URL....No real solution other than don't use Mac Keeper (which I do not) URL....
Product: CS4 64 bit: Adobe Output Module-Adobe updater downloads 2 updates 75.9mb (Camera Raw 5.3). After download and permission to continue under user account control, I receive popup menu advising me that Installation Incomplete, close Adobe Bridge - 3 choices, which always fail. My Adobe CS4 and Bridge are not open. I tried this several times with the same result.I downloaded the zip file, saved, unzip, and still get the same notice - close Bridge.
It looks like the same 2.3mb file that the update program is trying to download. Once the update is started it just keeps trying to download that file until I cancel the update.
whenever I make a GIF in Photoshop, it becomes very pixelated and unclear. This is what l do to make a gif:  Step 1: Make GIF Layers Step 2: Open Animation Window Step 3: Select 'Make Animation from Layers' Step 4: Save as GIF  If you can tell me some nice settings, that would be perfect.Â
I'm working on a document and can't get text to appear clearly. It's certainly readable and not a big problem but how can I get text in photoshop to appear more like plain text on a webpage does?
The font is Arial and I'm trying different sizes along with switching from Crisp to Sharp with no luck.
I am creating a spray for a friend who plays counter strike and I want to make the background invisable so when people see it in the game it appears to be directly on the suface.
By pressing Alt+Delete a layer is filled with the foreground color - right? How do I get rid of this fill i.e. clear the layer to transparency? There must be some other way than backing in the history pallet.
One user can not print from Photoshop CC. I have test other users from the same computer and they can print.I use Windows 7 Ultimate and SBS 2011. Â Is there a way to clear all Photoshop CC from a user profile? it must be the first try. Any other user related problem with printing in Photoshop?
Clearing anchor point so that it's cuts the path line also to the next anchor (like point to point, cuts segment of path) not the whole path. Â Sometimes it works using delete or backspace But no clue why does not always work ?
In the attached image, you'll see that the car windshield has a frosted effect from the background of this image before I made the selection. How can I make it clear instead of gray?
I have a number of circuit boards to put on our website and I decrease in size and the photos never look that great. I use the save for web setting in PS, but was wondering if there was perhaps I should customize when I get there to increase clarity. That is what it looks like when I decrease in size.
I am completely new to Photoshop, and just learning a few things from the tutorial.how to clear the text from a photo or maybe a certain layer.
For example: I have edited a photo using mspaint by adding some brush strokes with differet color. Saved it as a JPEG. Is is possible for me to clear the part of that I edited using mspaint and get the original picture back?
I was able to crop an oval image out of a square photo. However, the background of the rectangle in which the oval photo sits is "white". How do I make it "blank" or "clear"?
I need to use the image in MS-Word on a non-white background; I get a white rectangle with my oval image! I just want the oval.
I just bought the PHOTOSHOP CS4, and I am having problem when it prints. The image is not clear, it has dots (pixels). This computer where I installed this program is brand new. I have previously worked with Photoshop CS2 and never had an issue but was force to buy this new one because the computer that I bought has Windows Vista and CS2 is not compatible. I thought maybe the problem was my printer but is not I have a Brother HL-5140 (black and white). I have connected my old computer with the printer and the images print perfectly fine. I have printed photos and it prints clear. But this only happens with Photoshop CS4. It prints dots.
i have this pic and its very blurry i tried to sharpen it but it came out looking a bit worse lol...is there anyway to make the picture look more clear ?
I'm a GIS tech for a nonprofit and it would be really beneficial if I could make projections of how old clear cuts could look after being tapered and so many years regrowth.
PS is a hobby of mine, but I can't really think of a way to do this outside of regular cut and paste (which looks pretty lame). So I need to be able to:
1. turn the straight clear cut lines into more natural looking tree growth patterns 2. add trees where there currently are none
When I use any marking tool (Pencil, eraser, everything except pen, text, and gradient) the results are totally clear. YES, my opacity is on 100 percent. My color is black. But nothing seems to happen to my work when I try to scribble with the brush over it. The eraser doesn't erase. Et cetera.
Photoshop seems to think it does, though. I can 'undo' any completely invisible marks I have made.
I've reset photoshop to factory settings, and it's still doing this.
