View 2 Replies View RelatedI have imagery in a PDF which I need to bring into Photoshop and then rasterize. Eventually it needs to go into InDesign so I can resize it without the edges distorting, as pixels do.
However the Rasterize command in Photoshop is grayed out. What do I do?
Can anyone give me a tutorial on how to rasterize an image? Sorta of like this one...

I hope you can help me I am working on a project and I have a simple graphic on a layer (a box for text with a stroke) that when I try to rasterize it to apply a gradient mask will not allow any options except to rasterize all layers. I looked at preferences to see if it was a setting and found nothing. I just reinstalled CS2 on a new better computer then I had it on before so I don't understand why this is happening.

Can anyone give me a quick explanation of why you rasterize an image?
I have a Panoramic that I put together of a Manhattan City Scape that consist of 2 rows of 32 images set at a Portriat format.What I want is to take the Panoramic that I have and fit the image centered on a canvas equalling that of my flat screen tv, that being 1920x1080 with black filler at the top and bottom of the image area.I then want to, or atleast was hoping to save "Layers" with each layer zooming in by a percentage of say 103% (for example)... Until eventually that final layer would consist of a fully zoomed in view of the center portion of the panoramic at full resolution. Ultimately I want to burn the final images to a DVD for playback on my Flatscreen showing the entire Pano Zooming in to its center...I was thinking that I could maybe assemble all the layers into an .AVI or something."
View 1 Replies View RelatedRunning Vista and CS3. I have downloaded a logo from a client that is a blue rectangle with reversed out type in the middle. The image is a JPEG but at full size looks fine displayed in Photoshop CS3 and is showing a ppi as a little over 300. And yet when I file>place the image into InDesign the type comes out completely pixelated to the point of not even being readable. I've tried saving it as a PSD and TIF but they all still show the same pixeled type. It seems like I'm missing something simple but I'm at a loss. Can anybody suggest what would cause this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow would you "rasterize" the layer effects? So that instead of it being the object with the effects on it its just the individual pixels with no effects on them ... does that make sense?
View 3 Replies View Relatedhi after im happy with the style of the layer, how do i rasterize it? at the moment i either have to merge down or copy the style to seperate layers and then merge.
View 4 Replies View RelatedOK, i'm sure it's something i'm forgetting. Theres lots of tutorials out there that say to rasterize text in order to manipulate it. I've done that before in CS2. Now I have CS3. When I rasterize the text it only gives me access to a very limited amount of filters. I need to use the polar coordinates filter.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLayers with a layer style applied, mostly of the bevel or emboss variety, lose the effect when the layers are merged or the image flattened. Doesn't seem to happen with any other styles, like drop shadows or glows: those will stay, but the bevel will not. These are all Normal layers, nothing tricky going on. It's a program fault and I need to know if there's a workaround. I'm having to resort to saving the whole unflattened image as a jpeg so the client can proof the work, but sooner or later I'm going to need to flatten the image.

When I am trying to use the effect options with in the layers palette I get the annoying message:
' Could not complete your request because of a program error. '
It was working fine then it went funny. I have restarted photoshop, my machine and re-installed the software but stiill not fix.
I've taken a color picture and made it black and white by doing the following: Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Hue/Saturation. I brought the saturation down to -100. The pencil is selected and my foreground color is black.
When I try to select the flowers in my picture to bring out their color (within the black and white image), I get a circle with a black line thru it and the error message "could not rasterize because the pixel data for this layer is not directly editable". The steps I followed are working for most of my team but some of us are getting this error message.
I recently started working with paint.net and haven't figured out a way to achieve a layer with, for example, a "blur" effect that blurs the layers underneath it. The only way I've been able to achieve this is by flattening the image, copying it, then adding the blur to the new image. Adding multiple effects becomes impractical quickly if any changes are necessary. Is there a way to toggle an effect for all or some layers?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a lower thirds that will include some motion, otherwise I might try Photoshop for this. But basically, I'm trying to create a gradient using ramp in AE so that the lower thrids I've created fades away on the sides. Similar to the image I've attached. I don't know how to make the layer that I put the ramp effect on affect the other layers.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to make an intricate vector design look at is if it curved, like on the surface of a ball. BUT, I want to keep it editable. I tried the Warp tool first, but it made a mess, stirring up the shape rather than simply allowing me to curve it.
So I tried making a 3D sphere, then mapping it onto that. It worked, but now whenever I try to move or rotate the thing, it doesn't work right. Also, I can't tweak the design anymore.
How come some AI Files I use in a comp, that has the continuosly raterize option checked, becomes soft when the 3d layer option is also checked?
The AI object looks slightly unsharp until I click continuously raterize, then it is good to go to scale anyway I want. But it get blurry again if I click the 3D Layer option.
Note that this blurring takes place whether there is a camera or not in the composition and that nothing is animated so it can't be a motion blur issue.
I'm adjusting a photographic image and am using both a filter effect and a layer style in the same layer on a Smart Object. I want to separate the two effects into two layers, so one layer has the filter effect (Nik) and one layer has the layer style (Color Overlay) (with the goal of merging/rasterizing the Nik filter effect with the Smart Object but keeping the layer style unmerged). I can make two layers and move one effect without problem, but the visual result of each effect on a separate layer is quite different from having both effects in the same layer. The Blend Mode for all my layers is Normal. Within the Color Overlay panel, the blend mode is Linear Burn.

I'm using CS4. I have multiple layers of text and I want each one to have a different drop shadow effect. When I try to chnge the settings of one layer's shadow, all the layers change. Is there a way to stop this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI like the way a layer of mine looks with a layer style (color burn) applied to it. I want to rasterize or do something to the layer so that it looks that way when the layer style is normal, kinda of how when you have effects assigned to a layer and when you rasterize it the effects merge with the layer.
Obviously just rasterizing the layer isn't how to do it but its the closest thing I could think of, does anyone know what I could do here?
I have attached an image of a butterfly with a broken effect on its wings. You can see the effect inside the marching ants. How do i get this kind of effect?
