InDesign PDF output creates an image in grayscale negative...

I have an InDesign file with an eight-bit grayscale image imported from Photoshop. The image appears normal in Photoshop and normal view in InDesign. However, when I have the output file in PDF (print quality), the image in grayscale format appears in the PDF as a negative image. This happens not all the time, but from time to time. Does anyone have an idea of what is happening and what I could do wrong?

TIA

On further investigation, this could be a problem with Preview [Version 5.0.1 (503), OS X 10.6.2].] When the PDF file is displayed in Acrobat, the images appear fine.

The problem seems to occur with grayscale images in PSD format.

The image should be resized in InDesign so that requested subsampling as defined in the Compression Panel in the PDF export settings.

Select the settings of export PDF for printing high quality or print quality.

In the Panel of Compression, Compression for grayscale Images should be set to the JPEG format (or automatic (JPEG)).

    When I try to export a document in IDCS6 to one of the Adobe PDF presets, I can't specify specific pages of the document there is a button that allows you to choose 'pages' but without box where you can type in the specific pages... This does not happen in CS5.5 or CS5 version... the panel is different...

  • Convert an image to grayscale 10-bit color

    Hi all

    I am a programmer of experience of labview 8 years, but new to the procession of the image or NOR-Vision. And now, I came to a problem with the conversion of the image.

    I have an image acquisition card that acquires 1 k * 1 k 10-bit grayscale image, I saved the image acquired in *.raw (binary) format, and now I have to convert these images to bmp (jpeg, png, or diff) format. When I try to use the VI "Imaq save 2", I got an error saying something like "unsupported image type. After searching this forum, it seems that if I have to use an image of color type save as bmp format, but to receive my 10-bit RAW files, I first need to create an image in grayscale U16. So, how can I solve this problem?

    Thanks for your suggestions!

    My guess: you're referring to the 'writing IMAQ 2.VI of the file' as I do not know everything "IMAQ save...". Screw.

    The 'writing IMAQ 2.VI of the file' does not support writing 16-bit BMP.  You can take this information among image types supported this VI, see here.  Look at the pictures above, the designation of VI: 'IMAQ writing file BMP 2' says that he accepts "U8" and "RGB32 image types.

    Proposal: Write a PNG image.

  • PDFMaker, Outlook 2010 & Acrobat Pro XI - certain attachment types not included in PDF output

    Hi all

    First of all my PC is Windows 7 operating system, Office 2010 and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (v11.0.0). We use the Acrobat PDFMaker COM Add - In for Outlook for convert and add e-mail in PDF portfolios, because it brings together our emails in a relatively permanent format, even including attachments.

    However there seems to be a problem with attachments 'image', are not included in the output PDF file after conversion. There is no problem for other file types. I tested .xlsx, .docx, .pdf, .msg attachments and all are included in the PDF output without problem. But the images (.jpg, .gif) simply do not come through at all.

    If after you have created the PDF file I have manually save the attachments in the email and add them to the PDF add without problem. However they just do not appear as attachments in the PDF when using PDFMaker.

    I hope that makes sense and would appreciate any assistance that can be provided.

    Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it did not work either.

    After reading this: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/187419-adobe-acrobat-convert-email-to-pdf-issue, it seems that the problem is that our administrators have prohibited access to the Outlook security Temp folder which I assume is where are stored the image attachments.

    Workaround proposed in this thread (by dragging the email on the desktop and the conversion from there) works very well so I would say this to someone else who has this problem.

  • How to print the image in grayscale in the rich black?

    How to print the image in grayscale as PDF as black process only instead of CMYK?  I'm on FM10

    Ed,

    What file format you save the image in? It is important, as indicated by error. If you left it as a PSD, then FM performs a conversion to RGB. A TIFF or EPS file properly remains blank (i.e. on the plate of K). Other formats, such as PNG to grayscale are actually indexed color and solve RGB when FM creates the PDF file in the presence of plates of Spot and where the components are mapped to the CMY plates also.

    Here is a sample generated using SaveAsPDF with the CMYK option with the same 'gray levels' file saved in the format PNG, TIF and EPS in Photoshop (Note how the PNG isn't all there, on the plate K):

    Does not include the LabVIEW code you posted anything to send the image to a file.  I'm curious to know if we run out of questions at this point.  If we comment out code to convert grayscale, writing original image to the file properly or you didn't post in events where you say it works?

    I guess that LabVIEW code, you have published work to complete the task.  It's a little different from what I posted.  But I am not too concerned about that as long as things are working.

    The code works now. The problem is there:

    If (Log_Imaqdx_Error(imaqExtractColorPlanes (captureImage, 1, NULL, NULL, processedImage)))

    Instead of Log_Imaqdx_Error, it must be Log_Vision_Error.

  • Call a BI of OAF editor report, then save the PDF output as a BLOB in the database

    Hi all

    I have a requirement to customize the iExpenses page.

    I need to generate a PDF output with the detailed expenditures report when the user clicks on submit button to create an expense report.

    I need to take this pdf file and attach it to the expense report itself (with attachments fnd)

    I have an idea about creating a BEEP report and call it from the OFA.

    Usually, we write the pdf to the outputstream and view the pdf in the browser / to the local machine.

    Can someone send me some code examples to capture this pdf file and write back to the database as a BLOB.

    Thanks in advance.

    Arun...


    You can do it in two phases. Get first the BI Publisher API part works so that it returns the PDF file in the browser. You can see how it is done here:

    https://dineshnair.WordPress.com/2009/06/02/integration-of-XML-Publisher-with-oafgenerating-output-in-PDF-MSWord-MSExcel-and-HTML-format/

    Once you have this work, your code will need to the pdf file in a stream of data that you can then write to a blob in a table. You can see an example of a blob in a table here:

  • Information about the files in the PDF output

    Does anyone know why InDesign puts the file of information outside the crop marks? Screenshot below:

    FileInfo.jpg

    We have an external area of the slug 24 defined pts and at first I thought that, but it comes actually to 4pts IN that. We also did the same thing with the slug on the other files box, but they always put the information file on the inside of the crop marks.

    I think maybe it's that the little trim pad (just 4.25 inches wide) is simply too small. When I output as spreads, it puts the information inside the cultures on spread pages, but not on single pages.

    However, when I pulled out as differences I don't get the name of the CS3 file, only the page number as shown in the screenshot below.

    FileInfoAsSpreads.jpg

    Anyone know if it is not including the file name are a bug in CS3? CS5 seems the name of the output file that I expect.

    For anyone who cares: on a couple of the series we make take us exit InDesign PDF and manipulate it for various things, sometimes to crop the sides of pages tight for crop marks. With InDesign to put the file of information outside the cultures we can without pruning out crop marks.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Ken

    I remember more, CS3 is variable? Yes, he does. You can add a block of text anywhere in a defined area of slug and use a variable to list the file name, date of exit or a host of other useful things. Place it on the master page.

    I doubt that it is a BIOS problem.

    The fact is that the laptop uses the SATA HDD controller and your imaging software cannot recognize the HARD drive due to lack of SATA drivers.
