PNG showing up with black background

Guest
Mar 26, 2009 Mar 26, 2009
All of a sudden my png images with transparent backgrounds are only showing up with black backgrounds in Captivate. I thought it was the photoshop at first but when I tried to pull old png images in that showed up fine before, the black background showed up. ANy ideas? Hopefully I am explaining this clearly.

I had the same problem. What fixed it for me was opening it in photoshop and making sure the color mode was set to RGB and not Indexed Color.

Had the same problem when importing .png into Illustrator. Solved it by exporting my file to PNG-24 instead of PNG-8.

In my case same thing happened with Acrobat Pro. It was due to bit-depth. I increased it from 8 to 32 and now it works!

Open the file in Photoshop and resave making sure to turn off interlacing. Screen Shot 2017-11-22 at 16.48.37.png

From Illustrator at 300 dpi, export to png and check "Use Artboards" that solved the problem for me 🙂
