Trouble Importing TIFF and AI files
I’m using CS4 PP and all other products involved here. I have an EPS file with a white background that I need made transparent for use as a “bug” in a video. I used photoshop to drop out the background and saved the file several different ways WITH transparency– PSD, TIFF, EPS. For some reason I cannot get any of those files to import into PP. The original files with the white background come in fine.
Anyone know what I’m doing wrong here? I don’t know if my problem is the way I’m saving the file in Photoshop or the way I’m importing to PP.

I don’t work so often with PP, but whenever I get a PSD oder Ai file (often from people working with print media) I get it in CMYK colourspace.
Neither PP nor AE will eat it. So go in “Photoshop –> Image” and change it to RGB.That would be my suggestion.
Anyway, which way are you importing the TIFF.

Outstanding! I’m sure that’s it. I’ll make the switch to RGB as soon as I get back on the editor and I’ll report back the good news. I know these files were created for print and I saw CMYK somewhere. Do you recall where I go within Photoshop to change taht color setting to RGB? I’m sure I’ll find it, but if you know the path I’d love to have it.
thanks so much!!!

Sure,
got to Image –> Mode
There you can change it to several colorspaces.
I hope that was it.
Glad I could help.Cheers, Dennis
