I haven’t made a final decision yet as I want to be flexible. I want to change the image from day to night and possibly have this image instead of the palm trees and umbrella: https://pixabay.com/en/landscape-beach-night-palm-sand-852728/

Hello everyone, I've found tutorials on how to change the backgrounds where transparent materials are present, but with each tutorial, the background has been simple/ seamless. Could anyone advise me on how I could change the background in this image? I want to have a nighttime beach image rather than the pool and umbrella. .

They rejected one cover. Because there was a solid black background I think. I changed the background to rich black, but they still refused it over and over. It's never happened before that.

Are these under color settings? I don't recognise the box in that pic. Thanks, this has been very helpful

I think so too. It was like talking to a robot. They didn't have a clue when I contacted them. Now that I'm looking on the site, the 240% limit is for interiors. There isn't even a limit on the website under the heading "Cover Files". All it says is the cover must be in CMYK and saved as PDF 2001. Thanks for confirming that I am not, in fact, an idiot.

Unfortunately most of the authors I work with refuse to use any other printers. Ingram has the extended distribution they require. The only advice Ingram gives is to use US web coated SWOP V2. Which in many cases does bring it down to under 300% It's funny because my covers have always been accepted up to now. It was just with the last author that I worked with that they insisted on an ink density lower than 240% and kept rejecting the cover file.

I am creating a book cover. I downloaded some stock to use and the colours are quite dark. It will be uploaded to Ingram Spark (they do not have colour profiles to use). There are several areas of the image that are over the 240% ink limit. I searched the forums and tried the following without luck: I tried designing in RBG and then switching to CMYK after flattening. It didn't work. There are areas still at 290% I tried using curves to brighten the dark areas but it looks horrible, washed out and grey looking. I converted from RBG to SWOP. Still over the limit. I found a colour profile online that limits ink density to 240%, again the colours looked washed out. Can anyone advise? It's driving me bonkers. Thanks in advance.

What would the reason be that the eraser works before expansion but not after even though I've selected what I wanted to erase? the line disappears but then pops up again? its interesting that different people are getting different results when expanding his brushes. Maybe it's a version issue?

I just did it without expanding the appearance and it worked fine.

I tried another of his tutorials and the exact same thing happened. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong. I followed it to the letter and after I expand appearance the eraser doesn't work. It takes a line away and then it pops back again.

Ok I tried all that and it made no difference. I still cant erase the lines like he did in the video. I think I'll just move on to another tutorial or I'll just end up ripping my hair out. Thanks for all the help!

Wow thank you SO much for that detailed explanation Jet. I am out at the min but when I'm home I'll sit down and have a read and try your suggestions. I really appreciate the time you took to explain all that.

@Mohammed I agree I much prefer quick. I just wasn't sure if there was a 'correct' way. I see now that there's not.

Yes it's definitely my lack of experience. I'm good with photoshop but this is a whole new ball game. I think I'll have to learn work arounds if there is no 'wrong' way. I wasn't even sure of the purpose of 'expand appearance'. I just did it because that's what he did in the tutorial but when I researched what expand appearance does I had trouble understanding. Thanks for all the advice I really appreciate it.

Thank you for those pics eternal. This issue might be that all my lines are on the one layer?

@Eternal Warrior: The problem is when I go to erase the lines that need to be erased it doesn't work like his does in the video. It erases whole parts of the link instead of just the parts that should be in the back.

I don't remember selecting the stroke width tool. I used the pen and then changed the shape in the brushes panel ( I used his cartoon brushes). I tried object - path - simplify and it duplicated all my lines and changed the curves (as you said). I followed his tutorial step by step. I wish I could figure out what I've done wrong. He even says in the tutorial "Oh it all worked out great this time, sometimes it can be a mess". I wish he explained what he meant by that and how to fix it if you do end up wit a 'mess' like I did! Thanks though.

Hello, I'm trying to learn illustrator. I apologise if this has been asked before but I did a search and could not understand if the answers were right for my question. I have been following this Jason Secrest tutorial. Beginner Adobe Illustrator CC Tutorial: Teddy Bear Beginner - YouTube I used the pen tool and hit 'P' everytime I was finished with one line. I then I hit 'Shift +C' to curve my line. Then I hit 'P' again to start my next stroke. When I got to the part where you have to select all your brush strokes and expand appearance loads of new paths were created. Here is the amount of points I had before expansion: and here is the amount I had after I selected all and hit 'expand appearance' Can someone tell me if I've done something wrong? I asked in a comment on his video but I don't think he reads comments anymore. Thanks in advance.
