fuzzy fonts in W 8.1

Hello, I just upgraded to a new computer with W 8.1 and installed FM 7.2 and FM 10. Both have fuzzy fonts in the documents AND file names in book files, text boxes, menus etc. I also noted that when I open a pdf in IE 11 the text is crystal sharp. But if I save this file and open it in Acrobat X,

Hi Robert, after a web search for setdistillerparams color profile I found some interesting results, like this: -- http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/error-pdf-printer-failed-to.html Maybe it is simple and you only need to install or re-install this specific color profile in your system...

Having problems with importing an EPS file into FrameMaker ...

Hi, all. I am trying to import a graphic - with only four colors in it - (it is in EPS format) and am having some bizarre difficulties. When I view the EPS file on my Windows system using PS_view, it looks perfectly fine - even when zoomed in. However, for some reason, the file comes into

As I recall, Frame doesn't display EPS natively. Instead, it uses a TIF image which, as you noticed, is pretty horrible. When you print to PDF, however, it'll look just fine. Unless there's some overriding reason you need it to be lovely in Frame, I wouldn't worry about it. If there is, try

2014-03-06 Thread Fred Ridder
Your recollection is absolutely correct regarding FrameMaker only displaying a low-res raster image for EPS graphics. And that's only if the EPS file actually contains the TIFF preview--many EPS files don't include the preview image because it is basically a waste, and in those cases you only

As you have CS3, open the EPS in Illustrator and use the File Export option to save it as a PNG. Our web guy also says that in Photoshop you can use File Save for Web... then use the PNG-24 option. Alison Alison Craig | Technical Documentation Lead Ultrasonix | 130-4311 Viking Way |

Thanks! I have not checked the actual PDF output yet, so I will verify that it looks okay when outputted there ... (Whine: sorta makes the concept of WYSIWYG a bit less nice - the quality of the image on the screen is cringe-worthy). Z Robert Lauriston said: FrameMaker doesn't render EPS on

Thanks, Alison. I will try the second option you mentioned, since I only have Photoshop CS3, not the full Creative Suite. A good-quality PNG will be sufficient for my purpose - this is for an updated company logo that now need to be changed in my older FM documents. Z From: Craig, Alison

Thanks, Lin. I guess my only reason for making it look good in FrameMaker would be the WYSIWYG factor. :) This is just for a company logo that is being updated, so not critical per se, I suppose. The graphics artist provided an EPS file - his first PNG output was anti-aliased (which he can

Thanks, Fred. I will see if I can save the EPS into a PDF format - of the right size, I guess? - so that I can import it into FrameMaker. PNG would also be fine for my purpose, since it is a company logo that needs to be changed in my older documents. So, I will also try Alison's advice. Z

If your EPS graphic is a vector drawing, I would not follow Alison's suggestion to save as a PNG bitmap. That will greatly degrade the drawing by rasterizing it. EPS handles vectors perfectly, resizing them without degradation. Of course, they still look awful inside FrameMaker-- because FM

Thanks, Mike. I think that Alison was just responding to my request to understand how to save as a PNG from Photoshop. :) FWIW, this is just a simple 4 color corporate logo, so I am not too worried about using PNG format. As long as it shows cleanly in the output PDF of my documents (and
