How to export a transparent EPS?

I have a logo that I am combining with other elements in Illustrator. The logo must be transparent. It shows as transparent in Photoshop and Illustrator (under "see the transparency grid"). But when I export an EPS puts a white back box all about the logo. I followed the advice of other issues here but can not get this to work.

It depends on what you mean by transparency.

Transparency = blend modes, opacity of the levels other than 0% / 100% -, EPS would never support it.

Transparency = drawings that are not 100% fill the rectangle - Yes quite possible. Warning: PostScript interpreters support this, but EPS previews most aren't. Some applications show the preview the full rectangle, others may assume white = transparent. Do not trust the preview.

If you can export this kind of transparency to an application and use another application is a completely separate issue, but it works if the apps let and print PostScript is used.

Caution: transparent cuts by mask pixels are a PostScript 3 construction (transparent cuts by a clipping path are universal). If you do not have a printer of level 3, cutsouts by the mask of pixels will be lost, giving a full rectangle.

  • How to export with Transparent background

    I've created a logo in Freehand 10, and I need to export to EPS with a background transparent to be placed in an InDesign document. How to export the file with a transparent background?

    Thank you!

    > Please excuse my lack of experience, but can you please explain what you mean
    > by "no image on the screen?

    In general the content of eps (encapsulated postscript) files cannot be considered with page layout programs and even. So a picture of the screen must be included for the investment. When the document is printed on a postscript printer or exported to pdf that the screen image is omitted and the postscript code is used. In this case it is not ' What you see is what you get ", but" what you get is what you see not ".". "

    In Windows, the screen image has always been an opaque bitmap image but in mac screen image can be "cut". In both platforms, however, the postscript output is the same, i.e. without background.

    I don't know if InDesign CS2 can display the contents of the eps, Mac and Windows files. I just tried export eps and Freehand and they have worked well in InDesign CS3 Windows.

    File eps without the screen image generally appear as white box and all images in grey if Disply Performance form quickly Disply in InDesign. In order to check the display settings InDesign.

    Also try to export eps with an image on the screen.

    If the logo is simple with just of contour objects, it can be copypasted in InDesign as well. In FreeHand "copy special" and select the Clipboard format.

  • How to export a transparent background as a PNG sequence

    I am currently working on a project of special effects editing and I want to remove the black background behind it. I used the screen blending mode to remove the black background and then exported as a PNG sequence (I need in this format), taking care to tick the box of alpha layers before you export. However, when I look at the rendered result, the images still have a black background. Can't export as a PNG with transparency? If there is a box for allowing alpha channels then shouldn't I power? I'm doing something wrong?

    Hello

    To my knowledge, you can't knock out black with a screen blend mode unless you are compositing it on another element. If you need information on what is generally referred to as "Unmult,' (black unmultiplying to be used for a visual effect) you can read this excellent article from Rich Young on PVC: 'Unmult" with and without plug-ins special by Rich Young - ProVideo Coalition

    In the future, I recommend that you check to see if you create an alpha channel. Check it out by switching on the transparency grid in the program monitor. You can also put the Composite Alpha to check the alpha before export. See screenshots.

    Thank you

  • How to make a transparent background when editing

    Hello

    I was wondering how to get a transparent background in flash.  I did a lot of research and have seen many forums, but I don't want my file to export to HTML.  Is it possible to have a transparent background, with some having to have a HTML file?  I try this enter into Camtasia Studio, but there is a white rectangle behind the animation, blocking all the rest.

    Thank you

    Orion31

    You export a video to enter in Camtasia? If, therefore, in the export options video there is a checkbox to say to ignore the color of the scene and to generate an alpha channel. Don't say to compress the video in Adobe Media Encoder, just take the MOV file in Camtasia.

    If you say that Camtasia supports importing of SWF files, then it would be Camtasia to make the background transparent.

  • How to export the cookies to restore later?

    I don't know how to export bookmarks for a later restore. I also want to export cookies that I use on my normal websites, so I can also restore them later.

    Thank you

    There is an extension which exports cookies to the old text file format. That could allow you to delete the ones your do not want by using a text editor. I think that you would need the extension again to reimport the file (modified) in Firefox.

    In the process of registration on www.startssl.com a client certificate was added to my Firefox for Android.
    Now I want to save this client certificate, but I don't know how I could export it to the mobile version.

    I would also like to use this certificate on my Firefox Desktop, is it possible?

    Thanks for any help!

    HI SumoAlex,
    Thank you for your question. I apologize for being a little late in coming in responses. If we are unable to find an answer, please post your question again once.

    I understand that you would like to know how to export the client certificate to the Android and also use it on the desktop.

    IT may not work on the desktop, but I don't know that you can turn on remote debugging in Firefox. The cert.db on the desktop stores all certificates. (is it the same on the Android device?)

    Try the Cert Manager add on for Firefox for Android. Ref stackoverflow.com

    I hope this helps.
