Sometimes I need to make corrections to pdf documents that are protected. The way I do it is printing them with bullzip printer and then I open the converted pdf document in Adobe Illustrator to make the corrections. But sometimes when I open the document in Illustrator most of it is blank or with very strange characters. You can see an example of these strange characters in URL...
I am using Photoshop CS5 and am creating a photo montage poster with about 30 images on it. The photos are not stellar and I need to change levels, exposure, saturation etc to each image. I was creating groups from layers for each image then dropping it onto the montage file, but I see that filters effect every layer below.Â
I have a gradient layer as my background and I don't want it affected nor do I want every layer below affected. I created smart layers from each image, that works, but it really slows the system down. What is the smartest and most efficient way to handle this?Â
Trying to get an 8x10 print from a digital camera photo on a letter size paper. Reguardless of what we do, the print job only comes up to 8x6.5. How do we get an 8x10???
I was given an image of a painting by my boss and told to isolate the figure, then use said figure in a standard step-repeat print.  like that : .   .   .   .   .    .   . .   .   .   .  the image itself is a high resolution because it needs to be, so not surprisingly it keeps making illustrator crash. the print needs to happen, and it needs to become a swatch so I can apply it to tee shirts, hats etc. so far this has been completely impossible.
I am new to gimp and want to use it mostly to make mandalas from digital photographs. I found a tutorial online for making mandalas in photoshop and though it seems to be transferable to gimp for the most part, I am having some difficulty actually recreating the example. URL....
I have the image extracted from the original photo and now I want to place it in a new background, but I cant seem how to figure out how. I have used the magic wand tool and selected all then cut and paste, then remove the white area to reveal the new background, but then I'm not able to position the photo where i want it in the new background. I have done a search on youtube and a google search, and have alot of info, but not what I'm looking for. I'm using elements 7. Anybody have a good link for me to watch or a good explanaiton. BTW I am a total newbie to photoshop, this is only my second day having the software.
I have a very large piece of artwork in my possession. The artwork was originally drawn in high-resolution on a computer, but a true digital copy of the original is not available to the public.
My copy of the artwork is large enough such that the original pixels can just barely be distinguished by the naked eye. I would like to scan it in at extremely high resolution, or take photos of it (multiple photos of various sections may be necessary for enough resolution). Afterwards, I am wondering if Photoshop, some available filter, or other image-processing program would be able to analyze this ultra-resolution scan and reconstruct a perfect copy of the original digital image?
The idea is that if I can see the original pixels with my eye, Photoshop should be able to likewise deduce all the original pixels of the original digital image, and reconstruct it as such via some algorithm, in the original resolution.
I am trying to alter or create a colorspace preset/profile that would allow me to open a digital image in Lightroom or Photoshop that ultamately changes the colorspace to one that simulates the view of a dog. All I really have to go on is the two spctrums shown in the image below.
I have a new machine with windows 7 64 bit and autocad 11. When I choose the 6204 as my plotter I get the following message : "This plotter configuration cannot be used for one of these reasons: the driver cannot be found, the device cannot be found, or the driver has a problem. The None plot device has been substituted." it does not matter if I choose to try and print to the plotter or make a PDF this error comes. up..
1) convert the new digital image into an black and white one with that special look (is it the contrast, that makes that special b/w-look?) 2) make it look like disturbed or cracked, cut u and incomplete around the corners, a look, that must be the result of that old technique they have used for the photos at that time.
Is it possible to recreate that look for images, done with a digital camera today?(I have added a example image of an "old west show" I did, that is one of the images I would like to manipulate)
I am pretty new to Photoshop and I have come across a few things that I would love to do but I cant figure out how to do them. Also, I have elements so I'm not even sure if I can do them. Anyway one of the things I am trying to learn is how to put lines over an image. For example the very first picture on this site: ...
When I make a print from CS6 the image on paper is narrower than the stated dimension in the program. The height of the image is faithfully reproduced. I know that there must be a preference setting to correct this but I can't remember which one it is.
Was printing 4x6" from LR 5.3 fine. To an Epson 3880. Then went to Page Settings (MAC) changed paper size to 8.5x11". The preview responded with a larger page. I scaled the image up to 8x10 via lightroom cell size. But when I printed to the Letter size paper, LR printed only a close to 4x6" top left corner. This was not a full image like the 4x6. It was just a corner.  Exported to PS and printed fine.Can not figure why the print will not print the full image?
I'm using Lightroom 4.1 and Photoshop CS5 Extended on Mac OS 10.6.8.
Recently images opened in Photoshop from Lightroom are not recognizing the distortion correction when "enable profile corrections" is ticked for any lens.
I've tried reinstalling Lightroom; no difference. However, chromatic abberation corrected in Lightroom is recognized in Photoshop.
I have a client who would like to create a banner that is 6x5 feet. She supplied me with a very high quality photo that she'd like printed on the banner. Ideally, it would fill up most of the banner. The file size of the photo is 670 mb. In Photoshop's "Image Size" window, it says that it's 12960 x 8640 pixels, 36 x 24 inches, and 360 ppi. Â Is there some way to make this photo display larger, short of taking a new photo with a higher resolution? What happens if I up the resolution in the "Image Size" window? Â Also wondering why this file would be 670 mb but only 36x24 inches in size... It doesn't seem to add up to me.
If I have a set of images I want to make a quick print of on an 8x10 sheet, as thumbnails, is there an easy automated way to do this (short of creating my own action which manually places thumbnails side by side)?
