Reduce file size in imovie

Hey, I'm wondering how I can reduce the file size in movie without losing the quality.
I have a 1280x720 video that's at 900mb right now, but I'm trying to get it down to 400mb.
I got it down using the Export using Quicktime >> played with settings but every setting, the video comes back with horrible quality.
Is there another way to do this?

Use SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE and use the pre-sets.

Reduce video size on imovie

How do you reduce vidio size on imovie ?

Do you mean the size of a shared video file? You have to choose lower resolution or quality. What version of iMovie are you using?

Reducing file size #2...Preview, Quartz Filter vs Adobe Pro Optimize

Questions on reducing a pages to pdf file…I will post each question seperatly.
2) I read that you can reduce file size of a pdf in preview with a quartz filter. I created my own filer and it worked as expected. But, I also have Adobe Acrobat Pro, with save as PDF Optimized. The pro seems to have much more capability than the quartz filters.
Is one better that the other to use? The adobe optimize (standard settings) took it from 20 to 6 megs.
THanks, Bob

The Adobe Acrobat settings you chose are probably using .jpeg to reduce the file size.
.jpegs are lossy. ie You lose detail and sharpness the more you compress the image.
The Quartz filters are usually of very high quality, but they are a black box and you need to understand what the settings are in each one. Quartz filters are extremely powerful, fast and as I said usually high quality but I suggest you experiment and see if they meet your needs.

I receated the pdf, I renamed it. tried to do it before I imported more pages. no go. the 16 mg pdf will normally reduce to 5 or 6

Hi,
Are you facing the issue with any pdf file?
Please try updating Acrobat to 11.0.7 and check.
You might also want to repair Acrobat and see.

Reduce File Size in Acrobat Pro (9.5.5) Corrupts Graphics in PDF Documents - shows up as black image

Whenever I use Reduce File Size in Acrobat Pro (9.5.5), sometimes some of the images (not all) get corrupted and show up as a black image in the new document.
Actually, the new reduced document looks okay when viewed in Acrobat, but the problem shows up when viewed in the Preview application on the Mac.
I'm using Acrobat 9.5.5 with Mac OS 10.8.6
I've tried re-importing the graphic into a new graphic box, which didn't work. Thinking there may be some type of corruption with the actual graphic file, I then tried viewing the graphic, then taking a screenshot of it to create a completely new file, and then re-importing the new graphic file into the original document (created in Adobe In Design 5.0.4). I then export the new document as a pdf, and brought it into Acrobat Pro to do the Reduce File Size. Same thing happens - black box appears where the graphic was.
I then tried using the Reduce File Size within the Save As function of the Preview application on the Mac - while the graphic remains intact, many of the other graphics in the document are "reduced" too much, to the point where the image quality is seriously degraded, and therefore not usable.
Any other ideas?

Hi Anoop,
I can share the graphic file, but not the pdf which contains it (as it contains confidential information) - thanks!

How do you reduce file size of a PDF if Save As doesnt work?

I have been trying to reduce the size of a PDF, using the Save As > Optimized PDF method.
I have also tried Save As > Reduced Size PDF.
This is on a file made up of 20 pages of full page Jpegs. (These were generated by the script in Photoshop that generates Jpeg files from Layer Comps within the document.)
If I use Reduced Size PDF, I get a greatly reduced file size but the image quality suffers greatly. (Lots of artifacts and blurryness)
There are no options to choose the level of compression I want.
If I use Optimized PDF method, I cant seem to reduce the file size no matter what I set the Jpeg compression to.
Is there some way to cut the size of the file down but not lose so much image quality?
Any suggestions?

Part of the problem here is that the files that are produced when I run the script to output files from layer comps are very big.
If I "save for web" for each layer comp, I wind up with way smaller Jpegs. Thus a much smaller PDF.
So the question is: Can you make the script, Layer Comps to Files, create smaller more optimized Jpegs? (Like you get when you save for web)

How to set option in Scanning for Reduced File Size

I am scanning from a Fujitsu 6230 scanner in Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.4.1. My scanning options are Color, 300DPI,Letter, High Quality, with Optimization options of Custom Settings of JPEG for Color/Grayscale. The scanned files are very large...1852KB per page. After using the Reduce File Size option and selecting Acrobat 8 and later, the file size is reduced to 187K. Is there a way to preset the Acrobat 8 or later setting....rather than having to do the two-step?
Also, if I use Fujitsu's scanning interface I get far higher quality pdf's, with small file sizes, and lower scanning resolution......but without the option to append to a pdf, an option I use frequently. Apparently their program for converting the scanned image to a pdf is more robust than Adobe's. Is there a way to use their image->pdf engine within Acrobat?

Hi Boatseller,
I will put this in simple way.
Can we set properties in biztalk wcf_custom adaptor like
1. <security authenticationMode="UserNameOverTransport"
2. enableUnsecuredResponse="True"
or
includeTimestamp="false"
3. <textMessageEncoding
messageVersion="Soap11"/>
<httpsTransport/>
I am unable to find these properties in BizTalk wcf_custom adaptor properties. It will be great help if you could guide me in right direction . My problem is to receive response message into orchestration which is not having header. But the response is coming
from web service. I saw that in fiddler.
Also, If there is any steps to make these properties available in machine config, please share
Thanks in advance

Issues in Reducing file size on Acrobat 9.3.1

The text has been merged or split on Acrobat 9.3.1 Pro by using the option "Reduce File Size" or "PDF Optimizer". There is no issue in the earlier version of Acrobat (7.0 & 8.0). We are using the Mac OS between 10.4.11 to 10.6.2. I have attached screenshots for your reference; please look at the Word "Issues" has been split after reducing file size on Acrobat 9.3.1. Is there any other way to do Hi-Res PDF to Low-Res PDF without any issue? Kindly help me out to sustain the best process in future.

I found a similar problem with text styled for small caps. It was fine in the original PDF, but became lowercase in the reduced file. The reduction process probably throws away characters from fonts that Acrobat decides are unnecessary.
I was able to partially solve the problem by combining multiple PDFs (book chapters) and selecting the smallest file size icon at the bottom of the page. Alternately, I chose a web-quality preset, which also worked. The file size might not be quite as small, but the files were good.

Why can I only "Save as Other... Reduce File Size" a single time for an Adobe X file?

We are struggling with our form editing in that anytime we make a change and save the file size is doubled. As a work around we started using the ...Reduce File Size save as. However, we can only use that once per file. Some of our forms contain several hundred fields that are edited, with the behavior as is we cannot save our work as we go.
Reproduction Steps...
1. Open a file in Acrobat X and note it's file size.
2. Make any kind of change (our work is focued on View>Forms>Edit)
3. Go to File > Save as Other... > Reduce Size PDF
4. Set Version Compatability to 'Retain Existing' and Save
5. File size should be very close to the original
6. Open the new file
7. Rinse and repeat steps 2 and 3
8. Note that when you go to try to Save as the new edit, the Save As Reduce size is grayed out and no longer available for seslection.
Please help!!!!

Just do a standard Save As. The problem is that Save includes the old and new. Save As deletes the old. Also, if you distribute the form it is locked from editing as I understand it.

Reduce file size in Acrobat X

What is the best way to reduce file size? The Document menu is no longer an option. When I try to Save As... Reduced File Size or Optimized PDF, the program crashes.

We aren't Adobe. We're just users like you.
Regardless, this is something that requires Adobe Acrobat and not Adobe Reader. This is the Reader forum.

Trying to reduce file size of my opening page in a flash site

I'm using the Flash CS4 IDE, and the first page of my site takes a lot longer to load than I want it to. So I wanted to go through the varied images / symbols / movie clips / sounds and so on to see where all the memory is being chewed up.
When I go into my library, however, I can see the Name, LInkage, usecound and Type of my elements, but no mention of file size and I can't seem to find any right click menu that lets me add file size to the list of details being displayed.
Is there a way to make it show file size? Or some workaround?
And are there any best practices to reduce file size aside from using symbols for anything that's used more than once and reducing image and sound quality?
Thanks

I was actually using the term pretty loosely. I'm building a Gaia site which works by loading an Index page, then a Nav (navigation) page on top of that, and then lets you load and unload pages as necessary on top of those.
Since the Nav page never gets unloaded it's a good place to park certain content. So it's actually my Nav page that's gotten too bloated. And the coding is handled through a separate Nav.as file (so it's not the first frame of my nav.swf, it's all the varied movie clips I had to incorporate into my Nav.fla
I'm just looking for a way to identify which MovieClips & sound files (only have a couple of short ones) and other assets are taking up the most memory so I can see if I can cut those down.
Also, do unused symbols use up memory or is it only the assets you actually end up adding that count toward file size?
Thanks

I am using a Mac Mini. I want to change the file size in iMovie to MPEG so I can burn the move to a disc. There is no "save As" that I can find . What do i do?

to create standard-conform DVDs = playable on any DVDplayer, there's much more to do than just converting to mpeg(2)...-
you need a DVD-authoring app, as iDVD, Burn, Toast ........... drag any iMovie export into it, 'burn'.

Reducing file sizes of multiple PDF's

Hello everyone,
I just got hired at a structural engineering company, and we are trying to go "paperless". I am in charge of scanning tons and tons of our old record drawings. We have an old scanner and the PDF's it creates are anywhere between 10,000Kb to 70,000Kb. After I scan every sheet, I am supposed to use the "Reduce file size" option in Adobe Acrobat. I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and I always make the files compatible with 5.0, which reduces the file size by 1/6 - 1/10. I've only been able to reduce 1 sheet at a time, which again, is time consuming. Is there a way I can reduce multiple files at once? I looked online and found an article here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Standard/WS65C0A053-BC7C-49a2-88F1-B1BCD2524B68.w. html, saying that in Adobe Acrobat 9.0, I can select "Apply to multiple" to reduce multiple files. Is there a way I can do it without upgrading?
Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately, it's not possible if you're using Acrobat XI. In previous
versions you can tell an Action to ignore non-PDF files but this feature
was removed in XI. Also, 35,000 files is way too much for Acrobat to
process. You need a more robust application for such a batch processing
task.

Reduce file size of Movie Clip

My swf file is 1.3 MB. It contains a dozen 72dpi images with
alpha tweening. It is taking awhile to load. Is there a process to
follow of a free software to reduce the file size?

The proper way to reduce file size is keep your images
external and load
them on demand.
