Preview:  how to find export file size?

Odd that I didn't find a thread on "save-as".  Are they squashed? 
I lament the loss of "Save as…", but I would be willing to accept the use of "Export…" wholeheartedly if I could predict the file size. 
One of the main ways I use Preview is to normalize images without a lot of heady image editing;  colour tweaking, size, ratio, resolution, then save JPEG's for use in iTunes cover art.  The end of this task was normalizing an image file size as a JPEG.  Now, all I see is a slider that gives me a relative file size and no indication of the absolute range I'm working within.  The only way I view my desired file size is to export, then use Finder "get info" to see the file size as disk usage. 
Is there a way to do this inside the Preview application, as a parameter of exporting, like I did before Lion? 

Thought I'd complete this thread that I found unresolved.
In subsequent versions, the absolute value is at the bottom of the export dialogue box. If it was there or toggled at the time I asked then I couldn't find it, but it is now so problem solved.  Currently running v8.

    How do I find a file size for a aperture project in its entirety ????

    You can't. The Aperture library is a combination of database and flat files, a project can be split among multiple files in combination with other projects. The size of any of those files (or a sum of the files) would have no meaning concerning the size of a project.
    BTW typing in a large bold font like you did is seen by many in then on-line community as a sign of shouting and is considered bad form. I'm sure you didn't mean to shout at us here as we are all just users here freely giving of our time to try and help folk like yourself so please in the future use the standard font.

  • In the metadata settings i can find the file size in pix. is it possible to see the size in inches?

    in the metadata settings i can find the file size in pix. is it possible to see the size in inches?

    Yes, that is one way to do it. But you can also do it by doing some simple math. For instance, let's say the you have an image that is 4000 x 6000 pixels. It doesn't matter whether resolution setting is in the file. The image is still 4000 x 6000 pixels. But you can decide what resolution you are going to export your copy. And you would do that for its intended purpose. If you are going for a high quality print then you would probably want 300 PPI in your export settings. With the example I've given the size print you can get had 300 PPI would be as follows:
    4000 (pixels) / 300 (PPI) = 13.333 Inches
    6000 (pixels) / 300 (PPI) = 20 inches
    So if you were really precise in needing a 300 PPI print you can get one that is 13 x 20".
    If you are preparing for display on the screen, the higher resolution isn't needed. Using the same math:
    4000 / 72 = 55.55 inches
    6000 /  72 = 83.33 inches
    By doing some simple math in your head you can determine the resolution that you need and the size that you need and set up your export accordingly.
    Technically speaking a digital image doesn't have a size other than pixel dimensions. Everything else has to be determined by the resolution that you need for the intended purpose of the final image.

    How to get the file size (in bytes) for all files in a directory?
    The following code does not work. isFile() does NOT recognize files as files but only as directories. Why?
    Furthermore the size is not retrieved correctly.
    How do I have to code it otherwise? Is there a way of not converting f-to-string-to-File again but iterate over all file objects instead?
    Thank you

  • How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

    hi all,
    how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
    Regards

    Found the solution for this.
    First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
    In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.

  • How to reduce jpg file size, not pixel dimensions?

    I am preparing images for the web and I really have 2 questions: one about gifs, and one about jpgs.
    My standard procedure is to reduce the image to the desired pixel dimensions at 600 dpi
    That gives me a crisp small image. then I either use it as is if the file size is low enough (I try for under 600 kb) or convert it to a gif with the save for web and devices tool.
    So here are my 2 questions (I will count this solved with either answer)
    1) When I convert to a gif I have the 4 boxes: one with original size, the other 3 with options but often the options are too low res for me How do I change my 3 options to start at a higher gif res?
    2) If I try to reduce the file size of the jpg in the image size box I set the resolution lower ( 400, 300), which lowers the pixel dimensions and the filesize, but I don't want to cahnge the pixel dimensions. And  If I reset the pixel dimensions back to the size I want them, even though it is a lower resolution the file size doesn't change. How to reduce jpg file size using only the resolution, not pixel dimensions?  PS I have tried messing with checking and unchecking the 3 little boxes( scale styles, constrain proportions, and resample) but nothing has worked.

    Gif is not a great filetype, especially if you want a crisp image. What are your pixel dimensions?
    For web, it makes no difference what the dpi is, only the final pixel dimensions so once you have that as you want, use 'Save for Web and Devices' and you can lower the quality - 100% being max and 0% being lowest. I wouldn't save anything below 55%. For a 600kb image, your dimensions must be rather big.

  • How to find the db size

    Please tell me how to find the db size.

    If I understand correctly, the above query will give the space allocated to the database. This isn't necessarily the same as the space used by the database. Or do I need to clean my glasses ?

  • How to find EXPORT MODE of MEMORY ID with ref to IMPORT  MODE of MEMORY ID

    HI ,Friends,Iam not able to find Export memory ID with ref to available IMPORT Memory ID in particular SD routine of a program.
    Plz let me know how to find Export Memory ID reference program with available import memeory ID as I need to do changes for exiting routine program done by somebody .

    As it's an SD routine probably the simplest way is to set a breakpoint on the keyword 'EXPORT' when you first enter the transaction.  May need to skip a few but eventually you will come across the correct one.  When you do find it I would also suggest placing a comment on the IMPORT statement to say where the value has come from for future reference.

  • Question about how javac finds referenced files.

    Hi
    I am just beginning to learn Java and have got some questions related to packages.
    I have two classes:
    MyClass.java
    package pkg;
    public class MyClass {
         public void prn(int x){
         System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
    Test.java
    import pkg.*;
    public class Test{
         public static void main(String[] args){
              MyClass obj=new MyClass();
              obj.prn(2);
    Directory structure
    /root/ jprog/MyClass.java
    /root/ jprog/Test.java
    Executing the following sequence of commands gives me:
    # ls
    MyClass.java Test.java
    # javac -d . MyClass.java
    # ls
    MyClass.java Test.java pkg/
    # cd pkg
    # ls
    MyClass.class -----compiles.
    # cd ..
    # javac Test.java
    Test.java:5: cannot access MyClass
    bad class file: ./MyClass.java
    file does not contain class MyClass
    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
    MyClass obj=new MyClass();
    ^
    1 error
    Now after reading another thread on this forum I came to know that the compiler finds the
    MyClass.java in the wrong package. Using verbose option with javac shows this.
    So I move it to some other directory and everything works.
    # mv MyClass.java /root
    # ls
    Test.java pkg/
    # javac Test.java
    # java Test
    Integer: 2
    Now the question begins:
    Suppose we go back to how the files were arranged before I moved the MyClass.java file and
    I change the Test.java file by adding
    package pkg2;
    statement to it.
    Now everything compiles
    # ls
    MyClass.java Test.java ---I have deleted pkg and .class files
    # cat Test.java
    package pkg2;
    import pkg.*;
    public class Test{
    public static void main(String[] args){
    MyClass obj=new MyClass();
    obj.prn(2);
    # cat MyClass.java
    package pkg;
    public class MyClass {
    public void prn(int x){
    System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
    # javac -d . MyClass.java
    # javac -d . Test.java
    # ls
    MyClass.java Test.java pkg/ pkg2/
    # java pkg2.Test
    Integer: 2
    Why isn't the MyClass.java file causing any problems now?
    Using the verbose option with javac shows that the compiler goes straight for the pkg/MyClass.class.
    My readings of Core Java Horstmann tell me that the compiler always looks in the current directory. javac documentation also doesn't help. I know that the documentation recommends that the source file locations should match the package statements.
    I'm just trying to learn how javac finds referenced files.
    Any help??
    Thanks a load in advance.

    I know that the
    documentation recommends that the source file
    locations should match the package statements.This is not merely a recommendation, it is a requirement.
    Both javac and java find classes by traversing the classpath. The classpath should contain directories (or jar files) that correspond to the top of a (part of the) package hierarchy.
    For example, if the Java code for your class is in a file C:\src\pkg\MyClass.java, and MyClass.java declares the class to be in package pkg, the classpath should contain C:\src. Classes are then found by transforming their package declaration into a directory structure.
    Please note that javac works on files, not classes. Therefore it is necessary to specify the full filenames of the files you want to compile, even if you have specified the classpath. By default, javac will put compiled class files in the same location as their sources, so the classpath for the java command should also contain C:\src.
    The exception to the rule is when all classes for the program are in the default package (i.e., they do NOT contain a package statement). In that case, it is possible for javac (and I believe java as well) to find all classes in the current directory, so it will "just work".
    You can specify the classpath using the -cp parameter to both javac and java.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    As you know archived log is create when online log is switch. Archived log size might be maximum equal to online redo log size.
    Because archived log size is copied from online redo log file, if you want change archived redo log size, then you must change online redo log size.
    But you must think, what is advantages and disadvantages of change of online redo log size, it depends direct task LGWR process.
    You can change archived redo log name with change LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT parameter.

    Hi,
    Instead of looking up the ID for the Entailment in DB_VIEWS you can better use MDSYS.SEM_NETWORK_INDEX_INFO
    For example:
    select name, type, id from MDSYS.SEM_NETWORK_INDEX_INFO;
    NAME TYPE ID
    MYMODEL MODEL 60
    MYMODEL_INF ENTAILMENT 69
    *** Space about the B-tree indexes on models and entailments ***
    Indexes created in RDF_LINK$ for a specific model:
    SQL> select name, type, id, index_name from MDSYS.SEM_NETWORK_INDEX_INFO;
    NAME TYPE ID INDEX_NAME
    MYMODEL MODEL 60 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    FAMILY100 MODEL 59 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    FAMILY100 MODEL 59 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    FAMILY2 MODEL 56 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    FAMILY2 MODEL 56 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    FAMILY MODEL 57 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    FAMILY MODEL 57 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    OTHERMODEL MODEL 58 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    OTHERMODEL MODEL 58 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    0 NETWORK 0 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    0 NETWORK 0 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    MYMODEL_INF ENTAILMENT 69 RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX
    MYMODEL_INF ENTAILMENT 69 RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX
    Then get the size from DBA_SEGMENTS
    select bytes/1024/1024 MB, partition_name from dba_segments where segment_name in ('RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX','RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX');
    Specifically for our model 60 and Entailment 69:
    select bytes/1024/1024 MB, partition_name from dba_segments where segment_name in ('RDF_LNK_PSCGM_IDX','RDF_LNK_PCSGM_IDX') and partition_name in ('MODEL_60','MODEL_69');
    MB PARTITION_NAME
    192 MODEL_60
    192 MODEL_60
    60.0625 MODEL_69

  • LARGER Exported File sizes

    I recently upgraded to LR V2 (also use PS CS3)
    For some reason my exported file sizes have increased immensely
    Typically I would convert from RAW to TIFF with the following settings:
    11" x 17" print size
    compression: none
    Adobe RGB1998
    16 bit
    resolution 300 DPI
    These files would convert at about 90MB (manageable on my system)
    They are now converting at a whopping 400MB (aging system can't handle this!)
    Is this the new LR V2 standard, is there some setting I need to change?
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Rich

    No, you must be doing something wrong there. 300 ppi (NOT DPI!) at 11x17 and 16 bits uncompressed should be 90MB as you can calculate with simple math. If you enable compression (highly recommended for tiffs - it's lossless compression) you should be able to cut that in half.
