    That Polygonal Lasso Tool

    Hi all, CS/3 ~ When I'm slowly tracing contours of an object, the screen wigs out on me. Why? Example: I'm outlining a football, going very slow so as to create the perfect football shape (hate the pen tool - rather lasso and create a new object). Anyhow, if I trace the football quickly, no...

    Color Changing from one to another

    1. I create a square, and color it "Pantone Solid Color 3015" 2. Next, I create text with the same color, so I'm to assume because I didn't go back into the color library. 3. Just for S..t's and giggles, (while I'm in text mode) to make sure that my text is exactly the same color as my square...

    roll-overs aimed at various locations on index page

    Hi, I'm relatively new to dreamweaver so type slowly... I have my layout with images in certain cells that make up my entire 800x600 index page so far. I know how to make a roll-over appear for something like: 1. "Welcome" (small font - dimly lit) 2. roll-over it and it becomes- "WELCOME"...

    RAW - in a nutshell

    Can someone explain (grade school level - 1st grade, matter of fact) why the pro's use camera RAW ? Being a pretty good PS'er, I feel like I can pretty much do anything I want with jpg's / bmp's / psd's etc... Please explain what it buys me to use my camera in RAW mode for PS use? What is my...

    Pausing the lasso tool too long for detail work

    Hi, I never noticed this prior to CS3... When I use my lasso tool to create a curved region to simulate a semi-circle around an object (logo for instance) I get this "white-out mode" where the entire image goes away. I'm left with my lasso lines on a white background and my complete design...

    Color Scheme

    If someone tells you they use color: PMS 423 ... What does that translate to in PS3's color library? Pantone Color bridge Pantone Metallic Coated Pantone Pastel Coated Pantone Process Coated Pantone Process Uncoated Pantone Solid Coated Pantone Solid Matte Pantone Solid to Process Coated Euro...

    Pretty Form Picture Missing

    Hi All, I just made a Form using LiveCycle that included a pretty background and appropriate user input boxes. It's a simple 1 page questionnaire. I included a "submit by email" button to myself for testing purposes. My 2 Questions: 1. I get a file in my email that looks something like this -...

    It came with my Creative Suite 3

    Hi Folks, This isn't exactly an Indesign question, but I'm not sure if there is a forum for the extras that came with my Adobe CS3 bundle. It's about Livecycle forms... If anyone knows the answer it would be much appreciated. I created a form with an email button that, once filled out...

    Color Mode

    I want to be able to save new work as a bitmap files. As far as I can tell, when I create a new document I have to change "color mode" from CMYK to RGB to be able to save as *.BMP Is this correct? Or is the another way to save as a bitmap in CMYK color mode? Is there an huge advantage to...

    Purple haze... well green actualy

    I have something set somewhere that casts a pollen-green haze over my entire page when going to print. I wasn't even aware of it until I set my prints (which are supposed to have white backgrounds)down next to new paper. That's how transparent the haze is, but it IS there. Any Ideas? Flush...

    Print Question?

    1.) I create a landscape - 1 page brochure - 11 x 8.5 Trifold 2.) Create a bleed area of approx 1/8 inch around the entire brochure (so my printer won't make that face at me) 3.) I then place a rectangle color box in the area that fills the bleed section in the right 1/3rd panel (That is to be...

    Is there an easier way?

    ....To color my text without going through the swatch menu? Seems like Adobe went backwards on this one. I just want to highlight text with the text tool and go to a color box at the top and select whatever color I want. I'm new at ID but it seems that you have to select 4 different things...

    What a drag...

    My CS2: I could zoom in on the lower left corner of an 8x10, drag a selection box (terrible with terminology - it's the rectangular lasso thingy) all the way over to the lower right in 1 second or less. My new version CS3: I go through the same zoom down to the pixels and select that tool and...

    another easy one I hope

    I was told that Indesign will let me save my work as something that other people (who don't have InDesign installed) will be able to open. Quark 4.1 would only save my work as a .qxd file (damn near useless to the rest of the world other that printer services). Indesign appears at first...

    X-Quark'er: simple, but I'm just not finding it...

    In Quark - Start a new doc, select the x-box tool, hit "get picture" - image is installed. In my new "Indesign" (just loaded today)- Can't even find a tool that will let me import an image. HELP!!!! Not off to a good start here. Stick with me. I'm usually really not THIS LAME. It's just when...

    What's the point?

    Hi All, Forgive me for being ignorant... I've been a long time user of Photoshop as well as Quark Xpress for brochures, posters, and other production needs. Recently a friend suggested using Illustrator because I needed to create a vector drawing for some laser work that my company is...
