AI and PDF files too big!

illustrator CS6 and CC keeps on saving huge file formats.PDF 72 dpi no compat. pdf  ends up with 33 MB when the AI file is only 8MB ( that is already too big) I have tried everything. My PC is with no doubt big enough to run all adobe programs with no conflict. This issue started a few weeks ago and I can find any answer to it.
I need to present pattern files and outlines of underwear to the client in a PDF. I have 9 designs in one file.AI file is 8 MB while the PDF even in the lowest rez is 33MB....why??
I would be so happy to hear from anyone that have found a solution to this problem. The factories or clients do not take any files over 10MB
heeeeelp!

I am running win 7 home premium. PC have 8GB memory and 64bit op sys.

  • Exporting a sequence and getting an Error file too big message

    I have tried to export a sequence using Quicktime conversion. It is a two minute clip and I keep getting an "Error, File too big" message. Does anyone know what can be happening?

    What exactly are you exporting to? Settings, codec, data rate? What drive are you exporting to? How is it formatted?

  • Is an 8.7GB file too big to import into iMovie 9?

    Is an 8.7GB file too big to import into iMovie 9?  I am using iMovie 8.0.6 on a Macbook Pro running OS 10.6.8 on 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 GB Memory.  I can't get my movie file to import into iMovie...any advice would be much appreciated!

    When you import into iMovie, your video is converted into DV format. This uses 13 GB per hour of video. So the first thing you have to do is make sure you have 26 GB free on your hard drive, plus another 10GB free for OSX to perform, plus 10GB free if you plan on burning a DVD.
    iMovie has non-destructive editing. If you have used any part of a clip and discard the rest, that entire clip is still saved in your project - unused but eating up disc space. If you use no part of a clip and discard the clip, then the clip can go in the trash and you get back disc space. So...
    If you import 2 hours of video (26GB) as one clip, and only use 2 minutes, your 2-minute segment retains its 2-hr source in memory. 2 min = 26 GB.
    One thing you can do is set the iMovie preferences to automatically create new clips every 3 minutes. (2 hours of 3-min clips = 40 clips.) This allows you to find the 2-minute segment you want and delete all of the unused clips. Say your 2-minute segment comes from 2 of these 3-min clips, so you keep 6 minutes of source footage and delete the rest. Clips that are entirely unused will be completely deleted and give you back disc space. At .65 GB per clip, your 6-minute project is now only 1.3 GB, and you've just regained 24.7 GB of disc space.

  • Published site won't load. Are my video files too big?

    I'm a video editor and have published a site through iWeb. I have about 8 movie files on the site. The site never fully loads. Are my video files too big? If so, what would you recommend the average MB's should be?

    You need to use a movie player that doesn't require the files to load with the webpage...

  • Backup file too big using Disk Utility

    I need to back up my 160GB Mackintosh HD on my imac OSX 10.6.3 (Snow Leopard) using disk utility. After a short period of the imaging process I get a message saying 'file too big'. What can I do to resolve the problem? My external drive is 1TB with 500GB available.
    I've tried using Time Machine but this seems to want to wipe my external disk.

    You may or may not be able to use the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to shrink the single partition and create a new one in the free space.

  • Hyperlinks to XLS, DOC, and PDF files that are included in a .chm file work intermittently.

    SUMMARY
    Hyperlinks to XLS, DOC, and PDF files that are included in a
    .chm file (and the Baggage Files) only work intermittently. The
    only solution appears to be deleting the Temporary Internet Files.
    PROBLEM
    1. I place the XLS, DOC, or PDF file in the Windows
    sub-directory that corresponds to the RoboHelp project sub-folder
    where the topic in which I’ll place the hyperlink exists.
    2. I open the help project in RoboHelp HTML.
    3. I right-click on the project’s Baggage Files
    sub-folder that corresponds to the Windows sub-directory in which I
    placed the XLS, DOC, or PDF file (in step 1).
    4. I import the XLS, DOC, or PDF file.
    5. I open the topic in which I’m going to place the
    hyperlink in the WYSIWYG editor.
    6. I “drag and drop” the Baggage File into the
    topic (in the WYSIWYG editor) to create a link to it.
    7. I save the changes and then generate HTML (.chm) help.
    8. I open the .chm file and click the hyperlink. The XLS,
    DOC, or PDF file may or may not open.
    9. When the hyperlink works correctly, for DOC and XLS files,
    a “File Download – Security Warning” dialog box
    appears asking, “Do you want to open or save this
    file?”. The buttons that are available are
    “Open”, “Save”, and “Cancel”.
    These buttons work then as one would expect. (When the hyperlink
    works correctly for a PDF file, it simply opens the PDF file in a
    new window; there’s no prompt to save, open, or cancel.)
    10. When a hyperlink does NOT work, for DOC, XLS, and PDF
    files, no dialog box or other visual message is displayed. Instead,
    the sound that is associated with the “Exclamation”
    program event is played (the “Windows XP
    Exclamation.wav” file is the WinXP default).
    Other Notes:
    - The hyperlinks ALWAYS work when I view a topic using the
    “View Selected Item” function (Ctrl+W) in the RoboHelp
    HTML project.
    - Once a hyperlink stops working, it will not start working
    again until I delete all the Temporary Internet Files.
    - A hyperlink will stop working even if Internet Explorer
    (iexplore.exe) is closed the entire time.
    WORKAROUND
    Through trial and error, I have discovered that if a
    hyperlink stops working, I can get it to work again using the
    following steps:
    1. Leave the .chm file open.
    2. Open Internet Explorer.
    3. Click Tools>Internet Options….
    4. From the “Internet Options” dialog box, select
    the “General” tab.
    5. Under the “Temporary Internet Files” section,
    click the “Delete Files…” button.
    6. From the “Delete Files” dialog box, select
    “Delete all offline content” and then click
    “OK”. The files are deleted and the “Delete
    Files” dialog box closes.
    7. Click “OK” to close the “Internet
    Options” dialog box.
    8. Without closing Internet Explorer and without re-starting
    the .chm file, all the hyperlinks that didn’t work before
    will now work.

    having been “Last Accessed” today is the
    “Shockwave Flash Object”.
    REQUEST FOR HELP
    I really want to include certain PDF, DOC, and XLS files in
    their native format in a .chm file. However, I need a better
    solution to my problem than the one I discovered. What I really
    want is to avoid the entire problem altogether.
    Have anyone seen this before or have any suggestions?

    You wont be able to do that. The embedded objects would appear as images only.

  • Why is my word and pdf files so large? How can I reduce the size?

    My document contains mostly photos from a database via a path to the actual jpeg photos on disk.
    There are 39 jpeg photos + a small amount of text with each photo.
    The 39 jpeg photos on the disk add up to be 5.79 mb.
    If I export the crystal reports document as [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Non Editable] the, the file size is 36.8 mb.
    If I export the same data as a [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Editable] the file size is only 3.1 mb.
    That is a difference of 33.7 mb! Why?
    Also, when I export the same data to a PDF file it is much larger than I think it should be; 12.7 mb.
    Why is my word and PDF files so large?
    How can I reduce the size of the word and PDF files? (without reducing the photo quality).
    Are there any tools to post process the Word or PDF files to reduce the file size?

    You can't, extra size is to hold the details

  • How do I keep my macbook pro from automatically rearranging my folders and PDF files on my desktop

    How do I keep my macbook pro from automatically rearranging my folders and PDF files on my desktop?  It seems to happen a lot after I've hooked my laptop to my Thunderbolt in my office and then I unhook my laptop to go present at a clients of taking my laptop home to work.  Every once in a while if even places all of my folders and PDF files in the far upper left corner of my screen.  Needless to say, having to constanly rearrange my desktop is extremly annoying and would love to know what the fix is for this problem.  Thank you in advance for any help offered!

    Thanks for the tip "baltwo", unfortunately my desktop settings were already set to NONE.  I've had one of my IT guys here this moring helping me look through all of this and we're at a wall trying to figure out why it's doing this.  This morning when I docked to the Thunderbolt all my folders and PDF files are in the upper lefthand corner stacked on top of each other almost out of view.  If I go to settings, displays, and swith to mirroring, all the folders and files go right back to where they're set up on my MacBook desktop, but I lose the ability to utilize the entire screen of the Thunderbolt.  Very frustrating to say the least and after searching through and reviewing several forums, Apple is very much aware of this issue and seems to be keeping silent on the issue.  Hoepfully they'll launch a fix soon!
    THANKS again for the tip, it's much appreciated!

  • Can't Edit .txt and .pdf files in EP6 KM

    We just migrated our last application from EP5 to EP6, and now we're having problems with not being able to edit .txt and .pdf files.  The problem is that the files will only open in the browser rather than in their native programs (wordpad/notepad, Adobe Editor, etc).  Surely others have encountered this issue.  Are there any solutions short of installing 3rd party tools?

    Hi Jeff,
    Which program opens on a link depends on two things:
    1. The MIME-Type that is sent from the server together with the resource (file) you requested by clicking a link
    2. Your Windows Setting defining which local application should be used for which MIME Type.
    So there may be two things happening:
    1. EP 6 is sending other (or no) MIME Types with the KM resources. You can check this in your KM configuration. See KM -> Services -> MIME Service
    2. Your OS got the settings for apps/MIMEs changed. This happens e.g. if you changed on Win XP to SP 2.
    So here may be a solution:
    Go to Windows Explorer->Tools->Folder
    Options->File Types, click on the TXT extention, and click
    "Delete".  Then proceed to recreate the TXT file type with the
    default app you want (notepad). 
    IE will open your app (notepad) for links to text files from that point
    on.
    So, to check this for text files, open the registry editor, go to
    "My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt" (or .TXT), and check for a 'String
    Value' with the value "text/plain".
    This should work with any file type, as long as you use the right MIME Type (See KM configuration / MIME Services).
    HTH,
    Carsten
