If you actually bought it, there's no reason to be reinstalling it or being in trial mode. There should be a serial number that came with your purchase, you enter it when prompted and you can use the software forever. Hopefully you didn't buy it on ebay or at some steep discount somewhere, because there's a good chance it's probably an illegal copy and you got ripped off.

Anyway thanks for taking time in reading my problem.

I need to install Adobe to my new computer and when I do it is telling me that the serial number is invalid. I try calling Adobe and they told me it would be a 40$ charge to ehlp me. RIDICULOUS.

Ah, finally a "personal use only" reference, from Jim Jordan's post #30 above. So, while I'd tend to echo his comment in #34, at least there is an implication that perhaps "personal use" means "non-commercial use". But definitely more clarity is needed from Adobe, rather than using such a vague phrase more subject to interpretation than simply stating very concisely that "no commercial use is permitted"...although I still don't see how Adobe would really ever be able to effectively enforce such a restriction.

Regards,

Daryl

Commercial use means you can use it for paying work.

Stick with the commercial version if there's any chance that will happen.

Daryl, I agree completely with you...there's simply no way to enforce it
any more than there is to enforce the two activations for only one user.

Did you ever see an open lasso? It wouldn't work!

The point of the selection tools is to enclose an area of the image.

You need the pen tool for "lines".

Hi there,

I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.

Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?

You can Open As...Photoshop PDF and edit the images, but the text will be rasterized.

You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.

PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

Since one is vector and the other raster there's really no reason there should, but... 8-/

If you turn the layer to be scaled into a Smart Object first, you at least don't risk extra degradation as you go. Setting opacity to 50% lets you see what you're doing.

Anyone else?

Hi NOT strictly Photoshop, but I thought someone out here may help!

One of my clients wants their files sent securely on DVD. One suggestion was to ZIP the jpegs and then appy the password option.
Has anyone done this? As it is really for security I would save at minimum compression. But Does it affect the image quality?
Is there a better solution for secure delivery?

Thanks,
John

From: Jim_Jordan@adobeforums.com

Zipping will not harm or aid image quality or overall file size. Zipping does very little to binary files like JPG. The zip process only offers password protection.

The best solution for secure delivery is to deliver what the client perceives to be the best option.

glitches.

From: Michael_Streubert@adobeforums.com

I purchased the demos of these products and one of the first things I tried was working between Illustrator and Photoshop, something I do regularly in CS3.

Right away I noticed a huge graphical glitch when pasting an object from illustrator into Photoshop. Most of the time the object, when pasted, is invisible, has no bounding box, and creates a black messy frame around the document's window. Usually some part of this distortion affects other windows outside of photoshop and my desktop.

Here's one example of what it looks like.

<http://img253.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture2ww1.png>
No idea where the yellow frame inside my document came from, also a glitch.

I'm using an iMac that's a couple years old: Nvidia 7800GT, 2.33 GHZ Intel Core Duo, 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM. Could there be a problem with my computer?

Would Image/Mode/Bitmap.../Halftone Screen... be sufficently accurate? Might have to up your image resolution to make sure the dots are round enough.

If this is for press, you should really be outputting as a spot channel to a Postscript device and controlling it from the Print/Screen... dialogue as this will use the output device's native reolution to create the halftone dots.

<http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Clearing+the+picture>:+(Jim+Sharp+invents+a+process+to+enhance+picture...-a030122610

It was originally developed to simulate an increase in tonal range for images printed on newsprint. There's more to it than just running it through a halftone filter or effect.

I don't have the time or inclination to experiment and research to figure out the best way to simulate the process digitally.

Some of the "Vanity Press" book publishers seem to be demanding JPEGs but I agree with Jim: if a Printer won't accept PDFs, find another printer or publishing house.

The printer has since advised that it's always advisable to format text

No. It doesn't make a difference.

== 3 of 8 ==
Date: Thurs, Feb 19 2009 8:30 am
From: barkerjohn@adobeforums.com

I think the suggestion is based on the fact that vector (Iluustrator) based text is sharp regardless of documant size, where as rasterised text relies on having a high enough resolution for sharpness. As Jim Jordan sugested, don't rasterize the type in Photoshop. I've produced countless book covers and print jobs with text using Photoshop, no problem.
Also I'm with those above who say ditch a printer who won't/can't deal with pdf's or p.s.d's for that matter.

I agree too that "changing the Printer" is a possible solution, but the boss might say "Change the Designer" if "he can't get it right".

Keep in mind that not rasterizing type in PS requires the file to be saved in an EPS format.

Why?????

What on earth are they printing with?

Even an Inkjet can print directly from a PDF so that the Type is rasterized at the resolution of the output device on output (perhaps at 1400 dpi or greater).

Converting text to a 300 ppi JPEG before output is not only ridiculous but also shows total ineptitude by the print house operators.

when you make your profile with your calibrator the last step in the process automatically selects the new monitor profile for your system. Now Photoshop will use it. You don't do a thing with it.

As a reminder, when you calibrate, be sure you select 2.2 gamma and 6500°K temperature.
