Compressing the file size?

I'm new with working with this program. My project is complete. However, my file size is too big to place on the website. any suggestions??

Go to the file menu and choose "Export w/ Quicktime Conversion". This will give you many options for a smaller (albeit lower quality) file size.

  • When downloading a file from google drive and save in my phones document directory,the file size is compressed. Why?

    I have downloaded files from "Dropbox" and save in phones document directory,After downloading in document directory,the size of the download file is same as the actual size in dropbox. I can also open it from document directory.Everything is ok. But when I follow the same process for google drive files, the file size is compressed(if actual size of file is 1.2Mb the download file size is 61Kb). So I can not open it from document directory.So, How can i download the actual size of the file in document directory? I am using google api objectivec client for google drive.
    Thanks in advance.

    If an iphone were to try to download a full size document ot photo, it woul overload its own ram, and crash, resulting in a laggy iphone. Therefore it is compresses

  • Email-to facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL, I reduce the file size.  Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression?

    To facilitate emailing a photo by gmail or AOL and avoid overwhelming the recipient's screen, I reduce the file size.  Is it better to reduce the image size or increase the jpg compression?  I have been making a duplicate image of 35 MB and reducing the image size to 8"x12" at 72 resolution giving a file size of 1.4 MB.  Then I SAVE AS a jpg of medium compression giving a  file size of about 111 KB.  Overkill?

    Go to File>save for web.
    I usually make the long side 800 px
    At the bottom of the dialog, check "constrain proportions."
    At the top, select JPEG in the dropdown for the file format.
    All the work is done for you! 72px/in is ok for web work. 240-300px/in is the recommended range for printing.

  • How can I reduce the file size of 3 videos?...

    ...without losing quality? These three videos are as follows in terms of size and length of the video:
    1) 148MB 19minutes
    2) 357MB 18minutes
    3) 164MB 14minutes
    I tried using a video converter to reduce the bit rate in order to reduce the size, which i know affects the quality, but that did not actually work to reduce the file size this time.
    I thought perhaps i should ask my forum friends for help on this matter. How,if at all, can I get all three of these MOV's under 100mb or to a total of 300mb for all 3 and preserve quality? It has to be able to play on an ipad (MOV or MP4). Thanks for your help!

    I think that the point that David was trying to make is that reducing the amount of information originally provided by a product or part of it in order to make it smaller will inevitably reduce the efficiency of the product itself.
    However, you don't have access to the original masters? Then you might be after a good compromise, meaning a video that can display decent quality while playing at its original frame size (say on the web).
    Does this mean that there is no real way to reduce the size without losing quality?
    If your target is the web there is a way to reduce the file size and still make it look decent enough. Re-compression means loss of source information but video compression is an art on its own and can produce some amazing results!
    Not without testing though.
    Now back to my previous post, use Compressor to try to reduce the file size and compare the result quality. Trust your eyes and be honest with yourself.

  • Export QuickTime file with new audio and maintain the file size and quality as the original.

    I shot some footage for a client yesterday and ran into an issue. To make a long story short I have QuickTime mov files shot with my Panasonic GH4 that have a buzzing sound in the audio track. I have clean audio from a recorder that can be sync'd. Is there a way for me to do this for the client and deliver them as the same QuickTime file but with the clean audio and keep the file size close to the original and not have quality loss in the image?
    If so I will probably put all of the spanned clips together from each interview and sync the audio before delivery. I am just not sure which codec will give the client the same quality footage compared to the originals and not have a massive difference in the overall file size. They did request that they be Quicktime MOV files though so that is a must.
    I don't see this as an option in the codecs in the export settings in PP, but is there a way to export as ProRes or another MAC native codec that will save them from having to convert it on their end? I am on a PC with Adobe CS5.5 so I am not too familiar with MACs, but from what I understand they would need to convert the files if I sent them straight out of the camera.
    I found some related search results for this but they pertained to "Best quality" for export. I am not sure how the varying options work but I don't want to create files that are considerably larger, just not less quality.
    If anyone has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Cole

    Here's the workflow: I imported the video footage into iMovie '08 and did my edits. Then I exported it (share) to my desktop with compression set @ 740 X 480. Then I used QuickTime Pro to fix the audio track. The file plays perfectly with both audio tracks working. It's a QuickTime file (.mov).
    I hope this jars any replies as to why the file when uploaded to my iWeb gallery drops the second audio track.
    Hmm,

  • How do I find out the file size of my photos, and change them to the size

    This will sound inane, but I cannot figure out where to find the file size of my photos in iPhoto. I need a jpeg of a certain file size and image size for my blog background, but can't figure out how to even start.

    If the limited quality options do not get you the file size you need export the full size image files to a folder on your Desktop and use Resize! to batch resize the image dimensions and file size (jpeg compression level) to what you need.
    Click to view full size
    With Resize! you can fine tune the pixel dimensions and file size.

  • How do I reduce the file size of a pdf to email?

    I have a 260 MB pdf file generated from Photoshop 6.  I can't seem to reduce the size in Photoshop.  Is there anyway to reduce the pdf outside of Photoshop?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Scott,
    That's a pretty big PDF! You'll have to reduce it pretty dramatically to attach it to an email. But, you can use Acrobat to reduce the file size. Please see this video for pointers: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-compress-a-pdf-file
    If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. For more information, see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

  • How do I minimise the file size of a photo?

    I am trying to find a way to miimize the file size of a photo so I can use s a avicon. Does anyone know how to do this?

    Select the pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export
    Two settings will impact on the File Size:
    Jpeg Quality refers to the amount of compression applied to the file. Size refers to the dimensions (length by breadth) if the image.

  • I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?

    I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?  I've been looking at Duplicate Annhilator but I don't think it can do it.
    Thanks!

    I just ran a test with iPhoto Library Manager, Duplicate Annihilator, iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner, Duplifinder and Photodedupo.  I imported a folder of 5 photos into a test library 3 times, allowing iPhoto to import duplicates.  I then ran the 5 photos thru resizer to reduce their jpeg compression but all other aspects of the file the same.
    None of the duplicate removal apps found set that was reduced in the file resizer. That's probably due to the fact that the file creation date was being used as a criteria and the resized photo would have a different file creation date even though the Image Capture date was the same.
    They all found the 3 regular duplicates and some of them would mark two and leave the 3rd unmarked.  iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner can sort the found duplicates by file size but if the file was edited to get the reduced file size it might not be found as it would have a different file creation/modification date. 
    iPhoto Library Manage was able to find all duplicates and mark them as such if the file names were the same the the filename option was selected.  Otherwise it also missed the modified, resized version.  It allowed one to select the one photo to save before going to work on the library.
    So if a photo has been reduced in image quality or pixel size it will not be considered a duplicate.

  • How do I reduce the file size of my pictures

    I am running out of space on my hard drive and notice that my iphoto library contains over 5000 pictures and is about 15GB.  This is about 3MB per picture.  I checked and lots are over 10MB.  Most pictures I only print in 10x15, the largest i ever printed was A4 sized. I guess i don't need to keep such large files.  These cameras are now set to make pictures with too many pixels I guess...
    does anyone know of a way to reduce the size of all my picture files?
    thanks

    1. Reducing the file sizes of your pictures will not just reduce their quality when you print, it wll also negatively affect their quality no matter how you view them. Remember the screen quality on your next mac will be better than this one, and even more so on the one after.
    2. The simplest solution to a size issue is to store the Library on an external disk, You can do this with iTunes and iMovie too.
    3. If you really want to reduce the quality of your photos then there is no way to do that in iPhoto. Here's what you'd have to do:
    Export the Pics from iPhoto (File -> Export) and in the Export dialogue make your choices on Jpeg Quality (the amount of compression used) and size (the dimensions)
    Delete the pics from iPhoto
    Import the ones who have exported back to iPhoto.
    Give away your camera and get a lower quality one

  • How can I reduce the file size when saving a psd as a pdf

    I have a psd with graphics and text, it is 8.5 x 11, 300 ppi
    I flatten the image and go to save as .pdf I un-check all of the options in general.
    In compression, I have tried a dozen different combinations and the way I've found to get a document that is not pixelated or blurry is to use jpeg 2000 > lossless or jpeg > maximum.
    So I have a high quality document but the file sizes are around 900 kb.
    I have downloaded other people's documents of the exact same type and size (8.5 x 11, 300 ppi) that I am making and viewed them in Photoshop, they are not pixelated or blurry and their file sizes are 300 kb or even less than 200 kb
    How are they doing this?!

    Delete all unused, invisible layers.
    Sometimes zip compression is better than jpg compression (in the pdf output settings). Zip is lossless, and works better with non gradient colour or no images.
    Flattening the image before you save it to pdf can reduce the file size if you are using jpg compression.
    Post a preview of your pdf and we can comment further on how to reduce the file size.

  • Where can I find the file size of an image?

    In PS CS4, when you hover the mouse over an image, one that I have that is sized as a 5x7 at 200 ppi, it shows 933 kb.
    When I open the file, and look at the lower left of the screen, it shows a "Document Size" of 4.01 mb.
    The correct size is 933kb, because it's from a D200 10MP Raw file, converted into jpg, then downsized to the 5x7 at 200 ppi. Default sizes are basically 13x19 at 200 pp (which shows up as a Document Size of 28.7 mb).
    What is a "Document Size" (I think it's the actual dimension area, not pixel size), and why, when the image is open, can I not see the actual file size of 933k anywhere?

    You mean in Windows Explorer window? Photoshop will not show you such information.

    No you can not. You may plan to save it as jpg with any amount of compression that will greatly influenced the file size and Photoshop is not that much intelligent yet to guess your plans :-)

  • Images cut from Microsoft Word document being picked up in the file size by Acrobat distiller

    Hello All;
    I have a large MS Word document (book manuscript) with almost 400 images (all grayscale) and found that the tiff images needed to be replaced with jpegs to reduce the file size. I created the jpegs, cut the tiff images from the document, and inserted the replacement jpeg image for each tiff image cut. It reduce the file size in Word from 595 Mb to 210Mb. However, when I ran the distiller, it is somehow picking up the file sizes of the tiff files as it still gives roughly the same output (595 Mb) for the Acrobat document. Is there a way I strip out the tiff image overhead from the pdf or a way I can cleanse it from the MS Word document? Thanks in advance.

    Acrobat automatically compresses images when a PDF is made, usually doing something equivalent to JPEG (it's your choice, check the creation options).
    So, changing from TIFF to JPEG in the original file will usually make not a bit of difference to the original file size. 
    There is no simple 1 to 1 connection between the size of a Word document and a PDF. Some things are bigger, some are smaller.
    You can experiment with Save as ... optimized PDF settings. Also, use Audit Space Usage in that dialog to see what is using the space.

  • How can I minimise the file size of a greyscale image ?

    Hi,
    What methods are there for making as small as possible the file size of a greyscale image. I need to keep the resolution at 200pixels per inch. The image is going to be big, 5835mm wide and 1780mm tall ! Some of them have some fine soft detail so I need to keep an eye on how that degrades. Others are better.
    Can the same work for colour images or are there different approaches for those ?
    Thanks

    My need is to enlarge up a plan for placement in, then tracing over in a CAD program, retaining the fine detail prior to tracing. I have some at 1/10th the full size item at 200ppi, others still as digital slr raw files. I have found that less than 200ppi the detail starts to go. considering this, if I am now working full size item surely I would need 200ppi also ? I could try simply enlarging it up 'as is' but would imagine when I am zoomed in that the ability to work closer in would be lost as I would be seeing great big pixels. Certainly taking an image currently raw and making it 200ppi and 5800 wide would give me better detail retention.
    I had hoped for some suggestions on how to save at lesser colour or grey numbers than 256. Some scanning of large plans can for storage purposes use 17 colours for example. Do I need 256 shades of grey, can I save as 64 shades perhaps ? Certainly LZW is the right direction here, retaining detail but using compression. JPG compression starts to frogspawn the edges below quality 6, so losing detail again. What about png or gif, thats what I had hoped for. Does anyone know how to reduce colour palette numbers to 64 or 32 shades ?

  • Help with compress function--file sizes not substantially reduced

    I've tried to use the compress function (right click "compress" or Finder/File/Compress) a few times on files from a variety of different programs. While this results in creating a zip file, the file size is not substantially reduced (e.g., from 43.4 MB to 42.9 MB). Is there a way to change how much a file is compressed?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Eric

    Not all material is very compressible. Text files and word processor documents usually compress very well. Photos and movies don't compress much if at all due to the nature of their structure (in some cases, using a general-purpose compressor can actually make a file larger). So it will depend on what it is you're compressing.
