The steps described can be automated with script- ing (either Extendscript or Framescript) to make the whole process easier. The scripting approach also would make it possible to easily allow trans- parency of images and to more easily utilize further effects such as gradi- ents and the various colour-blending modes available. Are you interested in how to create effects like these? FM Transparency? Lorem ipsum do pland sit amet, con sectetur a dip sching elit.

Systems Information ©4/17/17 AG alip quam erat volu pat. Ut dernime ad minim veniam, quis no strud exercit libration ullamcorper suscipit lab oris How to create a transparent coloured background text frame that overlays an image As FrameMaker uses a postscript imaging model and postscript itself doesn’t support transparency, the transparency has to be added at the PDF creation stage by Distiller using the SetTransparency pdfmark operator. To insert pdfmark operators into FrameMaker, one must either use a PostScript text frame or import an EPS file containing the appropriate pdfmark codes. What is required You will need to work with the following items: • Distiller joboptions/settings file(s) used in your PDF workflow • Text editor to create custom PS or EPS files with various effects. How to do this Edit joboptions file(s) You’ll first need to let Distiller know that it’s going to have to allow trans- parency to be created. Postscript, after all, is built on an opaque colour model, so by default Distiller has the transparency control turned off. So now you have to turn it back on. Creating transparency in PDFs with FrameMaker 3 1. Start Distiller and select the joboptions/settings file that you typi- cally use to create your PDFs. 2. Then from the menu, select Settings > Edit Adobe PDF settings... 3. If you do not have the full Acrobat installed, then in FrameMaker, select Print > Printer: Setup button> Properties button > Adobe PDF Settings tab: Default Settings. Select the joboptions file that is typically used for creating your PDF. Then click on the Edit... button. ©4/17/17 AG Information Systems Ltd. — Contents are copyrighted. are — Contents Ltd.

They should be at least Acrobat 5.0 using a Distiller version of (PDF 1.4). 7.0 or greater to actually render the transparency effects. 4 Creating transparency in PDFs with FrameMaker 5. Now click on SaveAs and save this as a file called Transparency.joboptions in the default location presented to you. ©4/17/17 AG Information Systems Ltd. — Contents are copyrighted. are Contents — Ltd. Systems Information ©4/17/17 AG The file should now be saved in your local settings folder, typically located here: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings 6. Open the Transparency.joboptions file using a text editor or FrameMaker in text mode (File > Open, select the file and then hold down the shift key when clicking on the Open button). 7. Change the value of the /AllowTransparency parameter to true. 8. Save the file (if using FM as the editor, use SaveAs and select the Text Only... format). Note: To those with more knowledge of PDF creation (perhaps you’ve taken one of Shlomo Perets/Microtype excellent courses), you may be wondering Creating transparency in PDFs with FrameMaker 5 why not just include your own call to distllerparams, as the joboptions file runs before any of your own code, i.e. << /CompatibilityLevel 1.4 /AllowTransparency true >> setdistillerparams Unfortunately, starting with Acrobat 8, the ability to change global Distiller parameters was removed, but not properly documented. Setting up transparency in FrameMaker Now that Distiller is allowed to create transparent objects, let’s see how to create a transparent object. pdfmark codes PDF supports more functionality than postscript does, but derives much of its core from postscript. So, there exists a pdfmark operator to allow you to insert PDF-specific commands in your postscript stream. The syntax of the operator looks like this: [ key0 value0 key1 value1 .... /keyword pdfmark The “[ ... pdfmark” delimits the value pairs and operation defined by the keyword for postscript. /SetTransparency One of the keyword operators is /SetTransparency. This operator sets the transparency (actually the opacity) used by stroke and fill operators to draw objects. The opacity value ranges from 0 (completely transparent) to 1 (completely opaque). The keys and values available for this operator are: ©4/17/17 AG Information Systems Ltd. — Contents are copyrighted. are — Contents Ltd.

The /CA key affects the outlines of any drawn lines and shapes, but is not important in FrameMaker (though interesting affects can be achieved). The /BM (blend mode) key specifies how the colours between the back- ground and foreground blend in the transparency effect. If you want to experiment with different effects, see Blend mode in transparency on page 36 for the key values along with examples. To set a 50% transparency to a filled object, the required pdfmark code would be: [ /ca 0.5 /SetTransparency pdfmark How to use pdfmarks In order for this command in FrameMaker to have any effect, it must be in FrameMaker interpreted as postscript commands.

  • Understanding Image Formats and When to Use Them
    Understanding Image Formats And When to Use Them Are you familiar with the extensions after your images? There are so many image formats that it’s so easy to get confused! File extensions like .jpeg, .bmp, .gif, and more can be seen after an image’s file name. Most of us disregard it, thinking there is no significance regarding these image formats. These are all different and not cross‐ compatible. These image formats have their own pros and cons. They were created for specific, yet different purposes. What’s the difference, and when is each format appropriate to use? Every graphic you see online is an image file. Most everything you see printed on paper, plastic or a t‐shirt came from an image file. These files come in a variety of formats, and each is optimized for a specific use. Using the right type for the right job means your design will come out picture perfect and just how you intended. The wrong format could mean a bad print or a poor web image, a giant download or a missing graphic in an email Most image files fit into one of two general categories—raster files and vector files—and each category has its own specific uses. This breakdown isn’t perfect. For example, certain formats can actually contain elements of both types. But this is a good place to start when thinking about which format to use for your projects. Raster Images Raster images are made up of a set grid of dots called pixels where each pixel is assigned a color.

  • Image Formats
    Image Formats Ioannis Rekleitis Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF • Exif • JPEG 2000 • BMP • GIF • WebP • PNG • HDR raster formats • TIFF • HEIF • PPM, PGM, PBM, • BAT and PNM • BPG CSCE 590: Introduction to Image Processing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_formats 2 Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a lossy compression method; JPEG- compressed images are usually stored in the JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) >ile format. The JPEG/JFIF >ilename extension is JPG or JPEG. Nearly every digital camera can save images in the JPEG/JFIF format, which supports eight-bit grayscale images and 24-bit color images (eight bits each for red, green, and blue). JPEG applies lossy compression to images, which can result in a signi>icant reduction of the >ile size. Applications can determine the degree of compression to apply, and the amount of compression affects the visual quality of the result. When not too great, the compression does not noticeably affect or detract from the image's quality, but JPEG iles suffer generational degradation when repeatedly edited and saved. (JPEG also provides lossless image storage, but the lossless version is not widely supported.) • JPEG 2000 is a compression standard enabling both lossless and lossy storage. The compression methods used are different from the ones in standard JFIF/JPEG; they improve quality and compression ratios, but also require more computational power to process. JPEG 2000 also adds features that are missing in JPEG. It is not nearly as common as JPEG, but it is used currently in professional movie editing and distribution (some digital cinemas, for example, use JPEG 2000 for individual movie frames).

  • About Graphics/Digital Images
    About Graphics/Digital Images Digital images are found in lots of file formats (types) that are used for various reasons. I liken the file formats to flavors of ice-cream, which you might or might not choose to consume on any given day. One day chocolate is more important than mint; another day you might use vanilla, and on another day you might decide to combine more than one flavor in the same bowl. Likewise, you might choose one type of graphic file for a particular project, but it might be completely inappropriate for another project. What works well for display purposes (keeping it on the computer, or for publication to the internet) might not print well. Something that prints well might be too big a file to post to the internet, or may make your program run too slowly. Also, some authoring programs (like Boardmaker or Classroom Suite) might be written to only understand certain types of image files. Some file types are more common than others, and are more likely to be recognized by the “parent” program (the one you use to display, edit or print your image). Whatever type you pick ultimately depends on how you plan to use the image. The more technical definitions provided below are taken from the glossary found at http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/glossary.php?letter=B The additional comments I have added, and hopefully let you know why you would care about any of this, anyway. The two biggest types of images I describe here fall loosely into two categories: vector images and bitmap images.
