Xara :: Exported PNG Images Have Black Background When It Should Be Transparent

May 31, 2011

Running Designer pro 6.1.2.13287 on Windows 7 Home Premium

I'm probably bumbling around and buggering up the export of png formatted images, but it appears something besides transparency is getting exported as backbround.

I do `Select all' then export to png.The poorly drawn green arrows were added in photoshop to show the area I'm talking about. The xara document which is apparently also getting exported in some way.At least certain other tools see a black background in that area. Not all tools have that problem with the image. For example; photoshop sees only transparency there.

But when I browse the exported *.png files with `Epson print CD', it sees black in that area as illustrated by the screen grab below.The first two images look clean as expected (I'll explain in a moment) but the third (the one that hasn't been cleaned in Photoshop) shows the black background in that area.

The first two were cleaned up in photoshop and now appear clean as expected.So to get a usable image for import into Epson's tool I must:

1) Export as PNG from Xara

2) Open with Photoshop and run thru a procedure where anything outside the outer blue ring in the image is deleted.(Even though PS only sees transparency, if I select everything from the blue ring outward and delete it, saving back to png, then Epson's tool sees transparency there)

3) Import into `Epson Print CD' and print the graphic to a printable DVD.

How can I skip the second step? That is, how can I get a clean export in step one? What is it that some tools are seeing as black background?

Paint.NET :: Images That Changed To Transparent Background Showing Up Black

Nov 8, 2012

I just learned how to make the background of my images transparent and am learning how to use layers. I am trying to save my pictures to picasa and photoshop so they are backed up and I can easily access them from any computer. I noticed that some of the pics are showing up all black. It's like the colors are inverted almost. I can kinda see the image in white, but mostly the whole thing is black. I noticed the same thing happened when I tried to open some of the images in paint.

I checked to see if they are all the same file type and they are not. Some are gif and some are png.

Also, some of my images won't open in windows photo gallery. They open in a blank web page. I originally go to my pictures and find them there, but when I click on them they open a page in IE instead of windows photo gallery so I can't crop them or anything.

I am trying to work on a project where I print silhouettes or simple images on vintage sheet music to use as art. I need to be able to take them to a print shop to have this done and I can't do that if the images show up black or won't open in a regular program.

I am attaching a pic that saved black like I talked about and a pic of what it is supposed to look like.

Xara :: File Exported To PDF But Transparent Gradients Showed As Solid Shapes

Sep 18, 2013

I have been working with Xara for two days now, and it's great! I am using the trial version of Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 9. I created a file with a couple of transparent shapes (love the transparency tool - so easy!), and it looked great. I exported to .pdf, and the transparent gradient was all gone. The shapes are there, but have no gradient whatsoever.

I also exported it as a .jpg and the gradients are present in the .jpg. In other words, the .xar file looks great and the .jpg looks great. Just the .pdf doesn't work.

Xara :: Exporting Images 300 DPI Are Exported At 96 DPI?

Oct 18, 2012

I am working on a project that requires the images I create must be at least 250 DPI, preferably 300 DPI.

When I export, I am specifying 300 DPI, but the resulting image is only 96.

Is there a setting somewhere that is causing them to revert back?

Xara :: Odd Border Inside Exported Images?

Jul 8, 2011

Open Xara Designer 7 for Windows - demo version.

1) Create a solid block of colour at an integer coordinate (say 0,0).

2) Make it an integer width and height (say 128 x 128)

3) Export

4) Choose '.png' (or '.jpg' - the same effect will manifest)

5) Zoom into the preview and see the weird discoloured edges produced

Alternatively, do the same thing with 'Create Bitmap Copy' and observe the same results.

I'm aware that if you have non-integer sizes/positions it anti-aliases, but this isn't supposed to happen if you rectify these.

[Edit: I think I found out what it was: on my Pro version, I have the option to minimise anti-aliasing, which might well be the issue. Oddly, I can't reproduce the problem at all on my Pro version, but only on my brother's demo version!]

Photoshop :: CS6 - Pasted Transparent PNG Files Have Black Background?

Mar 27, 2013

all transparent png files copied from Chrome and pasted into Photoshop CS6. The background is black rather than transparent. These images are one I created and exported using "save for web". It worked fine in CS5 so it must be a bug.
 
I constantly have to edit images taken from our website so being able to copy an image quickly with transparency intact is very important. I'm running CS6 in Windows.

Xara :: Transparency For Web - Background Color Turns Out Black

Aug 31, 2011

This is probably super simple. I do a lot of transparency stuff for the Web. My background color for the most part turns out to be black. I get my transparency but the program I'm using at the moment does a cleaner job with white. When it's black I see a little trash of black around the edge of the graphic. In the past I've come up with white quite by accident and it was clean as a whistle. I'm exporting as PNG, True Color + Alpha.
