Publication of multilingual in Illustrator

Hello!

Have a question about using Adobe Illustrator multilingual publications. Is it still possible?

I'm working on a publication (which my predecessor did) which has about 200 pages. Each page is a separate. File to HAVE that has text on it. Now the customer wanting to publish this publication in 10 different languages... I could save each file for each language, BUT the problem is, that the document contains graphics (vector and bitmap) so if you need to change a graphics card I have to change the same in 10 files (one file for each language).

Can you help me on what would be the best solution for this? I tried to put the variables in the document and check it in XML, but I have to admit that's not very "elegant", since the pages have a lot of text on the subject. InDesign has better support for multilingual publication? If she has - how export file HAVE in InDesign by keeping all the graphics? Any other tool from Adobe would be better for this? I have the latest version installed so I Adobe CC subscription...

Any help would be appreciated!

Best regards, Tadej

It seems that your predecessor only knew how to use Illustrator and was unwilling to learn how to use the right program for this task.

Establishment of a 200-page document 200 separate files HAVE is crazy. What happens when the additional text/images are added to a single page? It will not flow to the next page and the following pages need to be adjusted so that the changes to the original page.

This must be set up in InDesign where adding or removing all items will reformat text document. You can also have images as objects anchored to flow with the text.

Of course the text boxes must be linked, but this is just a practice. However, you would NOT link all 200 pages in a story (text block), bur rather break things up to chapters or positions where there is a natural pause of the material.

If I understand correctly, you have this (actually 200 documents) document in a language?

And now the client wants it translated and produced in 10 languages.

Because of differences in language, some texts will be shorter or longer than the English original. Elements from one page to another of reflow is an absolute necessity in this case.

The client provides the translated languages and will they be corrected by native speakers? Different languages have hyphenation rules, etc. that will act on the text.

With 10 languages you can even make use of text Goes from right to left instead of left to right with the Western languages.

You should post this question in the InDesign forum. There are experts who have been doing this for years and their advice would be invaluable.

  • Illustrator or Photoshop CC 2015 better to draw designs of the hand?

    Hello

    I draw the old-fashioned... way pencil/pen and paper, then search in Photoshop usually digital top own and coloring. I wonder if Illustrator CC 2015? or Photoshop CC 2015 is preferable to trace the digital work. It should be clean for the publication. Also, what tool would you use in Illustrator, I have to learn the software from scratch. All I did was in Photoshop, and I used the Brush tool.

    I also just bought a Wacom Intuos tablet, which I have to learn a scratch(whew!), advice or tutorials, you can tell me would be most appreciated.


    Thanks in advance,

    Janice

    There is no absolute answer to your questions. Illustrator and Photoshop are perfect for different types of work. It depends on if you need vector or if the bitmap is fine.

    According to your original work in pencil, you can even find "auto-tracing" would be a good choice. You've already invested in a Wacom tablet. It is very good and it will be very useful. The new iPad Pro, with pressure-sensitive pen, can also be a great option to convert your artwork. I know he has tablets is focused on the window, sensitive to the pressure as well.

    Basic of Illustrator tool is the pen tool. All other vector tools are based on it, so learn it is a must. For plotting "Freehand", the pencil tool may be next on the list. It is intuitive and works fine with the Wacom. Learn how to change the existing, on-the-fly, strokes with the pencil tool as well as the 'Option' of the change key. It will make you save a lot of time. The latest versions of changed this option by default, but it can be restored to the original workflow in the preferences.

  • Please HELP - Illustrator vectors still blurry in After Effects (w / continuously rasterize IT)

    I did a lot of research and nothing has helped me with this issue! I need to understand why this image illustrator is so pixelated, blurred and unclear in sequels.

    The illustrator file was given to me by a client, but I checked, and each object is certainly vector. I also did of each object, it is a clean and converted the doc in RGB layer.

    When you import into AE, I select "import as a composition . " -Keep the sizes of layer", then create the publication by double clicking on on file in AE.

    Other ideas to fix this very annoying? I would appreciate help!

    As Mylenium says AE never will show you the actual pixels in your composition Panel. Then, put your panel composition 100% zoom and intensify your layers. VOILA! Crispy vectors on what scale you want.

  • [Illustrator to After Effect] Can I bring up the size of the animation, I did in @2 x @3 x?

    I made an animation using Illustrator file. Can I evolve until the resolution of the file after that I did the animation in AE? Or any job here?

    Looks like you want to offer a product of better resolution. There are two options. One is to place your original publication to a larger, collapse transformations, then scale it up to the desired size. If your original composition was continuously rasterize enabled for all vector layers, it works for all vector unless layers some effects have been added to the layers. There is another way. I suggest that you use the script scale Comp. You can find it by clicking file > Scripts and select range of demo or scale of Composition.

    Once you have opened it has just created a new width of model and all your work will be intensified and animations will work fine. Then maybe go you through the layers and turn on the pixelation continues for all layers of IT.

  • Illustrator import, preserve the layer with diapers size problems more

    When I import a layered .ai file to help retain size layer that everything comes through, more small layers are fine but all the layers that are superior to the Illustrator artboard are cropped to that size. Models of layer are visible as the size they should be (size, position, anchor etc.), but they look like they would if they had masks on them to the size of the doc AE (I checked, they don't).

    Screenshot attached if all goes well shows what I mean.

    Using the most recent version of CC 2014 at all.

    This is how AE. If you ar import or PSD as Composition AE - then AE chose HAVE artboard size size of the publication. If you want to see 100% of all the layers you have imported AE, you can:
    -at AE expand this workplan

    -You can change the size of your publication you have imported EI by choosing settings of Composition/Composition

    -You can create a new composition with the appropriate size of WH and just comy and paste layers imported to this new composition

  • While using the blank publication for a button trigger appears for my submenus before my menu is open

    I used the blank publication to create my navigation menus. When I click on the tab in the main menu, it displays a menu drop-down. When I saw the site, triggers in my menu drop-down that can be clicked or displayed without having to open the main menu tab. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

    The menu item must be on the same layer.

    But I think you might need to rethink the way in which you built the menu.

    The illustration below shows the menu item with a blank publication as a base, which controls the link up widget and a new feature widget placed inside

    the composition target to control the secondary menu items.

    (making sure to activate - target hide: we roll-out trigger and target for the two widgets)

  • Is there a way to get the Illustrator to know how many pixels in an inch?

    Hi, this is my first post so please be gentle!

    I scoured these forums and found no solution to this problem.

    I use Illustrator CS5 to make graphics for printing. I need to print graphic said at 300 DPI, but it seems impossible.

    Illustrator has many parameters that you say, it is at 300 DPI, but it's never.

    Here's the dialog box new file:

    Untitled-1.jpg

    In this example, I do an image I want to print on a piece of letter paper size. The example is square, but it's not important. 8.5 inches at 300 DPI is 2550 pixels. Look what happens when I change the unit to pixels:

    Untitled-2.jpg

    Despite the pixelation effects the value 300 PPI down, he thinks as 8.5 inches is 612 pixels, 72 DPI, NOT 300. Look what happens when I choose the resolution in pixels correct then place it in inches:

    Untitled-3.jpg

    Untitled-4.jpg

    In fact, he thinks I want to print a poster of 35 inches with resolution of gif horrible.

    You could say that the pixels are the only thing that matters when it comes to print, and you would be correct, if I didn't print via a PDF file. When I save a drawing as it to the correct resolution in pixels to PDF format, and then try to print to actual size (300 points to the inch), I get something like this because Acrobat thinks I have a document of 35 inches high:

    Untitled-5.jpg

    Well, you might say, why don't you just print to fit, and you'll be fine? Of course, I can say that my dialog box print to fit page, but it does not to the size of the actual page, it adapts to the print area, which is perhaps a 1/8th inch smaller on each side of the page, which means my 300 points will never fill an inch exactly on my printer. Never in 1 million years, I could print a usable rule.

    Before ask you, yes the rasterization of the Document effects parameters are also 300 PPI and has no effect.

    Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

    It is very difficult for users to get their head around the fact that Illustrator uses Postscript algorythyms in the structure of the document.  A thumb is always equal to 72 dpi.  Those are the points per inch.  No pixels per inch.  You are getting crossed upwards with the confusion between the two.  Illustrator can create a document which consists of 100 dpi, 150 dpi or 300 dpi.  Who would set the patterns together on their head.  You have proven this in your screenshots.  No matter what you do, 8.5 inches equals six hundred and twelve dots per inch.  You enter Math that uses 300 and you get a huge document.  There is no deviation.  One inch is equal to 72 dpi.  Get your hands on the edition of Adobe printing Guide.  The publication, he explains in detail.  Now, you'll notice that there are three different versions of the resolution of the frame: low (72 dpi), medium (150ppi) and high (300ppi).  Like others in this post, I agree that Raster resolution is not the same as the Postscript of 72 dots per inch.  If this is too confusing, don't feel bad.  Just keep your measurements in inches.  Output resolution is determined in the printer driver.  In order to make a screen 150lpi halftone (imagesetter of direct-to-plate), you would need a capable imagesetter to print 5080dpi.  You will notice that there is no way to define it in Illustrator.  The only thing that illustrator can do is set the frame to low, medium, or high resolution.  If you create a document for 200lpi (lines per inch); You must create a custom print resolution (print dialog boxes) of 400ppi.  Most people do not receive even close to such subtleties.  If I were you, get the APPG and study it carefully.

  • Location of Illustrator documents

    Have you ever tried to improve a workflow to locate the Illustrator files?

    Let's say it's a marketing English brochure. A few blocks of text should be translated into other languages (including Unicode).

    I tried to variables and the export to a data file. It worked to some extend but not a reliable method to 100%. It was the CS5 version.

    Any change in CC?

    What is your experience?

    InDesign is perhaps better for these publications.

    InDesign is probably a better choice. You can use conditional text to contain several languages for a specific text block.

  • Import Illustrator file with several layers and sublayers as composition by keeping all layers and sous-calques

    I drew a map of the country with several layers and sous-calques, including the streets, cities, railroads...

    Now, I want to create a template for my colleagues in After Effects.

    To do this, I want to import the AI in After Effects, holding all sublayers and layers in compositions and subcompositions.

    When I do, I get the first two layers correctly, others just in a merged publication.

    What can I do to get all the layers of each as a layer in After Effects?

    Best regards, Raphael

    Illustrator imports only the first level of the layers. If you have groups or paths below you must release layer groups. The layers will then be stacked in the order in the form of layers. Then you need to move them to the top.

    The procedure is to select a layer in the layer Illustrator Panel, then without selecting any which specific element in the layer click on the menu in the upper right corner and select release to layers. All an elements in this layer will be transformed into layers. Now, select all, and drag them to the top above the original layer. This will leave the empty original layer and put all the elements in new layers.

    Here is a tutorial I made there are a bunch of years and who uses this technique to transform a mixture in a morphing.

  • drawing in flash and export Illustrator files

    I use to be able to draw or modify drawings in Flash and then export them to a postscript or swf file so that I could keep changing them in Illustrator. These characteristics seem to miss and I don't understand why. Surely, these are the characteristics that have been used by other users. So the function of printing image went Flash and that's where I could contain my vector drawing as postscript or PDF, and now I can't do more than anything. In Illustrator, I use to be able to open the .swf files and I can't do that. Is there a go-around? Why take such a good thing away which is so useful to artists and designers?

  • Make the white parts of a transparent image in Illustrator?

    I have an image (a logo), I have saved as an .eps. The file has been given to me, and this is the only file that I have access to. The logo is very, very simple, mostly text with only two horizontal bands, so all colors/shapes are strong and clearly defined. There are also two colors in the logo (three if you include white space). I would like to somehow saves a version of the image where the white part of the image become transparent so that I can put on different backgrounds, colored in different publications without having a big white box, but no matter what I try, I can't do the white part of the logo to be transparent. Is it possible to do this? I have access to Illustrator, Indesign, and if you have a crazy solution, MS Office and MS Paint.

    you don't need the linked file. When you open in illustrator, it will say that it is absent. Select extract from the options. When the file is opened, select the linked file and add him. This will give you the art of working with.

  • 'place' blurry images Photoshop Illustrator - at check in .pdf file?

    I edited some images in Photoshop for use in a .pdf file I created in Illustrator.

    In PS, images was beautiful and have been registered with the following parameters: .jpg/CMYK/Image Options: 10/Maximum. I have "placed" in the Illustrator file, everything was always wonderful, but I exported all of the .pdf file, the pictures came out blurry.

    The resolution is 300 dpi for images of three, all pixels of 170 x 100, which is also the size, they are used to in Illustrator.

    I note also that during the "placement" images in Illustrator, regardless of the type of file, the images are invariably much smaller that originally saved as. It's never happened before.

    Any ideas on how to have clean images, in the PDF?

    Things, I tried with no sign of improvement:

    Standard, high quality print and print quality save settings

    Save images as .jpg, .tiff, .psd in Photoshop to place in Illustrator

    'Link' and no 'link' when you place it in Illustrator

    Save images 2 x and 3 x the size in Photoshop to reduce in Illustrator

    And a cap perforated how I'm viewing the PDF with the images at 100% in Acrobat:

    Screen shot 2012-09-29 at 5.17.09 PM.png

    The quality is affected by their scaling upwards - at least if that's what you were doing with the placed files.

    170px wide at 300 dpi works be 0,5667 inches wide. Did you leave them this size or you increase their width/height?

    If you resize them, what size do you want in the publication? Let's say that you want them to be 2 "wide. 2 inches x 300 DPI is 600px wide at 300 dpi.

    Take care, Mike

    Edit to add * using my desired example 2 "width, if we place a 170px 300 dpi image, enlarged width 2", the effective DPI is approximately 83 dpi.

  • Large text files - Illustrator?

    We want to create posters of A0 size with all of the text in a book about to round the waist of the text 3 - 4pt with some images too. Illustrator is going to be the best program to manage the formatting?  Thanks much for any guidance. M

    Hi there - a short answer to your question is Yes, Illustrator has the ability to manage the formatting you work with. However, have you considered using Adobe InDesign? InDesign is for the publication of design and print models, which appear similar to those of your project. InDesign offer more tools focus on the layout, while Illustrator will offer several design elements.
