Help with resizing PDF's

I am in a company that draws plans for houses, similar to an architects.
Our problem is we are currently using a 2000i Autodesk cad based program and when we PDF
our files end up at about 14mb, while we sometimes come across other architects plans which are about 1mb
I was told to try out adobe acrobat 9pro to test if using out program with adobe we can reduce the PDF’s to 5mb max
I have tried several different options but the smallest I got was 12mb which meant changing the image quality to 300dpi which is very bad quality
We need it atleast 600dpi. Can anyone help me out how I must change it so it works out?
We are using the trial version for now as there is no point paying $500 for the program if it cant reduce the file size to as low as we want it.
I have tried an optimizer option and distiller and no change in size. the optimizer says that 98.17% of the file consists of content streams.
Or is it because we are using the trial version that we cant reduce the actual size of PDF’s?
while if i try and use the PDF option when rightclick on the file itself it leaves it at 3mb the whole file but it comes up as a pure line drawing not hiding the elements that are required.

The trouble is primary with pictures, not documents. The logo is not the
Adobe logo but looks like a sailboat. The document says that it opens with
Adobe 9.3 (loaded on my computer) but then I get the error sign.
Thanks,

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

You mean an image such as a scanned document?
If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

I need help with creating PDF with Preview...

Hello
I need help with creating PDF documetns with Preview. Just a few days ago, I was able to create PDF files composed of scanned images (notes) and everything worked perfectly fine. However, today I was having trouble with it. I scanned my notebook and saved 8 images/pages in jpeg format. I did the usual routine with Preview (select all files>print>PDF>save as PDF>then save). Well this worked a few days ago, but when I tried it today, I was able to save it, but the after opening the PDF file that I have saved, only the first page was there. The other pages weren't included. I really don't see anything wrong with what I'm doing. I really need help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't find it. I went into advanced and then document processing but no batch sequence is there and everything is grayed out.
EDIT: I realized that you cant do batch sequences in standard. Any other ideas?

Need some help with downloading PDF's from the net.

need some help with downloading PDF's from the net. Each time I try to click on a link from a website, if it takes me to a new screen to view a pdf, it just comes up as a blank black screen? any suggestions?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Need Help with this PDF generation

Greetings,
Our company had a subcontractor (that is no longer
available) create a small system for a client that allows the
client to input some text in a flash form, and the system places
the text at a certain spot on a previosly created PDF document. For
80% of the users, this works perfectly and then can print and save
the customized pdf document. For 20% of users, they can see and
print the customized pdf, but when they save it, there is no
customization (area is blank). Can anyone help us understand why
this happens, and how to fix?
HERE ARE DIRECT NOTES FROM OUR CLIENT:
Users are able to input their customized info.
The customized info shows up in the PDF on the brochure.
Users can print the brochure with the customized info.
Users can save the BLANK PDF (without their info)
Users can NOT save the PDF with their info in it.
The exact message is in the top of the window with the PDF
brochure and says "please fill out the following form. You can not
save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if
you would like a copy for your records."
Here is the input
form, feel free to test.
When you input into the brochure1.cfm Form, it sends the data
to
http://www.caduceuswebs.net/brochure1output.cfm
, which then spanwns the customized pdf to open.

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion.
While getting rid of the ";" helps, but the output of the select statement is not displayed?When you do a SELECT statement in PL/SQL, you have to select the results into variables or arrays.
Try something like this:
DECLARE
     CURSOR C1 IS
                   SELECT TABLE_NAME
            FROM    DB_MGMT.CTRL_TAB_RETENTION
            WHERE   RETENTION_PERIOD_IN_MONTHS = 11
            AND     rownum                  < 2;
     min_dt_skey    NUMBER;
     max_dt_skey    NUMBER;
     stmt            VARCHAR2 (100);
BEGIN
    FOR i IN C1
     LOOP
        -- dbms_output.put_line('Table Name: ' || i.TABLE_NAME);
        stmt :='SELECT min(DT_SKEY), max(DT_SKEY) FROM DWH_RSRC_PERF.' || i.TABLE_NAME;
        dbms_output.put_line(stmt);
        EXECUTE IMMEDIATE stmt
         INTO min_dt_skey, max_dt_skey;
     dbms_output.put_line ( min_dt_skey   || ' = MIN (dt_skey), '
                    || max_dt_skey   || ' = MAX (dt_skey) for table '

Help with saved pdf' s,"more request cannot be completed.Service book information not found"

Hey from south africa,I'm using the curve 8520 on MTN service provider.I came across a problem a while ago where I had to setup my email address again,I had an email with some pdf's saved.They were working well until the re-setup,now when I try to load ones that I haven't read it gives me the error "More request cannot be completed.Service book information not found".I've sent the email back to myself but no luck,help.Thanks in advance.

You need to reset your email account again on your device & send the service books from the same interface on your device. Wait for the 30mins & register now yourself from the handset itself by following the below steps-click on Option Application-click on Advanced - Click on Host Routing table - Click menu key - select Register now option & Click, Follow these steps twice. Now go into your email application & click on it. Then press the menu key & scroll down,you can see Reconcile now option, Click on it twice !
Now try to open that PDF again !

Please Help with Converting PDF document to Word Document

I have downloaded our PDF document to be converted to a word document --- it did not work correctly--we need help with this
Scott Munsen
Abbott House -- Mitchell, SD

Good day Scott,
I received your document via our File Conversion Issue form. The root of the problem you're facing is the quality of the scan. I'm not sure if you were starting with a poor quality hard-copy or simply low DPI settings on your scanner, but the reason the results you received were so different than the PDF was the quality of the input.
If you're hard copy looks clearer than the PDF file you created, I would suggest increasing the resolution settings on your scanner.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,
David

Help with resizing adjacent partitions on mirrored drives - Solaris 9 V240

Hi,
I need some help here. I'm very new to unix administration. I am running out of space on my /var directory. I have a set of 72G disks that are mirroring each other. The /var is mounted on /dev/md/dsk/d5 which has only 262M available out of 5.8G. Meanwhile the partition adjacent to it /dev/md/dsk/6 which has the /opt/app directory mounted has 5.8G available out of 13G.
Is it possible for me to take space from the slice 6 and give it to slice 5? How do I do this without loosing any data?
Here is some info about my system:

If this isn't possible, it looks like I have about 12G of free space. Partition 7 is only using from 11677-11685 while I could take it up to 11677-14086. I would then have to create the mirror metattach for that partition and then would I just unmount /var and remount it on the new /dev/md/dsk/d7? I'll need help with that. Then what would I do with the unused d5?
A step by step response would be great! Thanks!

Help with Resizing LUNS on Hitachi 9980

Hi everyone, I need a little help here resizing my LUNS on our Hitachi 9980. I currently have a 1 TB and I want to increase or resize this to 2 TB. I am wondering if someone can help me here. This is something I haven't done before. Is there a step by step way of doing this. I was told that it could be done off line or online. Which is safer? Do I also need to reboot the Host after the resizing? Thanks for your assistance.

I recently changed my default PDF reader to Adobe for the snapshot function, and now I can't open up any PDF in Firefox. Help?

You need a PDF add-on for Firefox.
Right now most work with FF 3.6 but haven't been updated yet for FF 4.0 just released
There is one that works with Google Docs
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-docs-viewer-pdf-doc-doc/
Funny, there is a version of Flash for Linux with 1% market share, but no PDF plug-in for the most second used browser in the world.

Need some help with the PDF ActiveX!

I have an application that call a vi which will open a selected PDF file. during the first ran, the document will be properly open.But after that if i close the VI and recall them for another pdf document, I cannot open the file ( nothing happens....) or i have an error message:" Could not find Acrobat External window Handler.
How can I resolve this issue., because On my application I have 3 buttons to open 3 differents pdf file and i can only open the first file (corresponding to the selected button).
I will appreciate all your help on this point.

Popo,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
I was able to run two copies of your VI on my computer simultaneously without any problem. I was able to open different PDF files in each instance of the VI.
It is hard to say what is causing your problem. If you are using multiple instances of this VI in a top level VI, try making each instance a different file name. I noticed some odd behavior when using multiple instances with the same file name. This odd behavior was corrected by giving each instance a unique file name.
I hope this helps!

Help with resizing document

Hi guys,
I am trying to resize my current document. It is currently 1000px and I want to make it 1300px but when I do that, all the elements that is near the top becomes off the screen to the top...Why is that? I only want the document to be longer in height from the bottom but not sure what it is affecting the elements on the top?
Any help appreciated.

Check you publish settings html scale, you might already have "No Border" selected, try publish with "Show all" or "Exact fit".
You may also edit the scale from html <param name="scale" value="noborder", try change it to showall or exactfit.
The swf scale can also be controlled by actionscript Stage.scaleMode
Don't give up, it is not difficult if you already know the way

Help with openning pdf's

Even though items are labeled as pdf's, they have a different icon and when I try to open them, I get an error message saying that they are "not a supported file type" or they have been damaged via email. These are files that have never been emailed.

The trouble is primary with pictures, not documents. The logo is not the
Adobe logo but looks like a sailboat. The document says that it opens with
Adobe 9.3 (loaded on my computer) but then I get the error sign.
Thanks,

You need a PDF add-on for Firefox.
Right now most work with FF 3.6 but haven't been updated yet for FF 4.0 just released
There is one that works with Google Docs

Funny, there is a version of Flash for Linux with 1% market share, but no PDF plug-in for the most second used browser in the world.
