Can't save quartz filter settings

Does anyone know why upgrading recently to Mountain Lion has killed my ability to save a new quartz filter setting in ColorSync Utility, so it isn't recognised by Preview? I need this to compress large PDFs when generating a monthly community magazine I edit and now have to use my wife's iMac, which is still running Snow Leopard. If this could be a corrupted settings file (eg. .plist), where should I look?

What happens when you try?

  • How can I save the Personal Settings done in the SAP standard viewer

    Dear All,
    I am facing the problem that I am not able to save changes made in the personal settings of the SAP standard viewer. I want to change the Colors to monochrome and I also want to change the background. Unfortunatelly these changes are not saved and I have to do that every time I am starting the viewer.
    How can I save these changes?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Best regards,
    Markus

    Dear Markus,
    normally the personal settings for the ECL Viewer are stored in the registry. Here the value for background color is for example stored in the following directory:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/SAP/VCT_Retained/6.1/Common/de/ImageViewUtils
    Depending in the language of the operating system the key has weither the value 'en' (english) or 'de' german.
    So here the personal settings should be stored or can be modified directly.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • Quartz filter settings for compressing pdf file

    I have used the nominal quartz filter setting (reduce file size) to compress pdf file.  It reduced the file
    size significantly--but the text resolution was considerably blurred.
    What is an appropriate setting to reduce pdf file size and not destroy the test resolution ?

    See if this helps...

  • Can I save custom export settings in QuickTime Pro?

    I'm using QuickTime Pro a lot to export/convert  many different projects, but every time I need to change the export settings, because there is no way to save them inside QuickTime
    I've found a description on how to do it wil Apple Script: http://lists.apple.com/archives/QuickTime-Users/2002/Nov/msg00295.html
    But the problem is that it needs to run also Apple script to actually perform the export, and I don't want it - I'm not a scripter, and I need the settings to be easy to load.
    I thoigh there is some prefs folder, where QT actually stores those default presets, where I can put some custom ones, but I didn't find such a folder...
    Is there any way to do it?
    Thanks

    QuickTime can only view WMP (Windows Media Player) files with third party software help:
    http://flip4mac.com
    To use Pro to export these files to QuickTime formats you'll need to pay for the upgrades at Flip4Mac.
    Not all WMP files are supported.

  • In Numbers, how can I save a filter sequence using Reorganize?

    I'm using Numbers (from iWorks 9) and have a filterning sequence that involves a date range and finding specific values in a text column.  It's pretty straightforward to use the Reorganize button, but my macro program (QuicKeys) can't seem to negotiate the nested pull-down menu selections, so is there a way to save this sequence within Numbers?

    File menu, Export. Select Excel as the format.

  • How can I save audio midi settings OSX 10.7.4

    Every time I boot my MAC PRO I have to go into "Audio MIDI Setup" from the utilities folder and reset the inputs and outputs of my Focusrite audio interface. It is always normaled to the "Built-in Device" and will not remember that i have reset it to the Focusrite "Saffire" OSX 10.7.4.
    I had no problem in OSX 10.5.8
    Any answers here?

    Hi Jim,
    Try this:
    While the Built-In device is selected, Open Finder, go to Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences > Audio, and trash both files inside that folder.  Then select your Focusrite interface, and run some audio through it.  Once you've done that, restart your computer and see if it holds up.

  • Can't save proxies settings

    Well my problem is simple to explain, but really hard to understand.
    As the title sugests I can't save the proxies' settings. I need the proxies to be configures in a certain way to have internet in my college campus. I'm able to connect to the campus' wireless network and enter the college's sites because they are in their own server, but i need the proxies to be configured with a name and a port (that I know) to be able to surf the internet.
    The problem is that when i enter network preferences, advanced, proxies, configure manually or with PAC file, i then it OK, Apply, and even close the lock so that it requeires password to change settings, but right next i click advanced and nothing was saved...
    I can't understand if i'm doing something wrong or if this is a bug. I'm using the latest version of Leopard in a MacBook. Any help is apreciated

    Are you using the "Automatic" location?
    If so, create a new location first (call it College) through:
    System Preferences -> Network -> Location -> Edit Locations...
    Once you have created the new location, you will be able to save your Proxy Settings. Whenever you go to college, you then need to simply select: Apple menu -> Location -> College, and your settings will be picked up automagically.
    Cheers,
    Rodney

  • How do I Apply a Quartz Filter Automatically to PDF Scan Using Preview

    Hi,
    Question: is there a 1-step process to scan to PDF and create reasonable file sizes.
    I've found discussions on this, but no conclusive answer that someone has actually tested and used.
    PROBLEM: Scanned PDFs are large
    SOLUTION: use a quartz filter to reduce size.
    The problem with this approach is that its a two step process
    1. scan the file using preview (Import from scanner)
    2. "Save As" with a filter applied to reduce size.
    What I'm looking for is someone that's got this down to a 1-step process using only built-in tools of 10.6.
    Thank you!

    Thank you for taking the time to reply - but not entirely true.
    My use case for smaller files is sending them via email. You are correct that size on the local file system should not be (and is not) an issue.
    Let me clarify why this is a 2-step process (for me) at the moment.
    When you use preview (I've been unsuccessful with Image Capture and don't know it would make a difference) and hit scan, the document IS saved. You can then immediately quit preview and your document is still at the save location you specify. Hence this would be a 1-step process.
    The additional step I need to do is "Save As" so I can invoke the quartz filter I created that reduces the PDF by about 80% in size with no visible loss of integrity.
    I would like this filter to get automatically applied when the document is first scanned - something I'm starting to think is not possible.
    I've gotten partial results by adjusting DPI and other factors of the initial scan, but not the reduction in size I can get by applying the filter.

  • Filter settings in the receipts view

    Hi Gurus,
    i have a situation, in the Receipts view(/SAPAPO/RRP4) iam using a filter to display orders. but the filter settings are not saved, when i come out and re-enter the receipts view previous selections in the filter are reset.
    i would like to save these filter settings, how to achieve this..
    please share your ideas,
    Thanks

    Dear Friend,
    You create layout and save that layout. Next time you come to receipts view, select that layout.
    Then all your filters and other settings will be retained.

  • Save custom filter for every document?

    Hello,
    sorry for my english ;)
    In FW CS3 it was possible to save a custom filter and so this
    filter was always shown in den filter list even when you open an
    new document.
    Now in FW CS4 you can only save a filter oder a style which
    is addicted to the current document.
    When you open a new one, you have to select every time your
    saved filter or stile set.
    This is no help and in my eyes a step back. I didn´t
    found any solution to access my custom filter or stile set right
    away when I open a new document.
    It doesn´t help to save the workspace area and options
    in a own set .. on every start, the stile window is empty and you
    hav to select one.
    Does sombody know a way to make a own set or stile selectable
    (instant) to new documents?
    Thank you for any hint.
    Regards.

  • Is it possible to save separate bus settings for each patch?

    Is it possible to save separate bus settings for each patch
    From reading the manual I don’t think this is possible – but would be grateful for any help around this.
    2 examples:
    1. I play around with the delay settings on a bus and I then change patch for the next tune and e.g the feedback on the delay is wrong for the new track.
    2. Most of my patches are 2 layered sounds – which I have sent to a bus to put effects on – But I can’t save those effects settings on that bus on a patch by patch basis – If I change the settings on the effects on the bus all the patches are effected.
    Hopefully Mainstage 3 when it emerges will address this issue – so you have the choice. Unless there is something I am missing.
    Any thoughts gratefully accepted.
