Consolitation duplicate Fonts ... takes forever

Hello,
some of my pds's have 6000 to 10000 scanned pages, with thousands of bookmarks etc., filesize >1gb.
If i insert new scanned pages (from another pdf) with drag an drop at the end of the pdf then the "consolidation duplicate fonts" takes up to 10 minutes to complete. During this time, i cannot work with any pdf. This is very disturbing to my workflow.
How can i disable this "consolidating duplicate fonts"?
I do not need any fonts-funktionalitiy at all. Cleaning everything and all the fonts through the optimization-funktion has no effect. Please do not start a dicussion, why this und why that. I do just need to get rid of this waiting-time "consolidating duplicate fonts".
Hardware i7, 16gb, Win 7, SSD, etc.
Any Solution?

Mark,
we recently dealt with a similar issue with removing duplicates. We inherited over 500M detail records from the source system. I tried several versions, due to performance issues, and found the following worked the best for us. Hope it helps.
It deletes all but the first occurence, depending on sort order - 'col4' .
CREATE TABLE temp_duplicates AS
   SELECT
       ordr_num
      ,itm_num
      ,case_num
      ,CAST(NULL AS NUMBER) num_dups
   FROM sms.marrs_case
   WHERE NULL IS NOT NULL;
INSERT /*+ APPEND */ INTO temp_duplicates
SELECT
    ordr_num
   ,itm_num
   ,case_num
   ,COUNT(*) num_dups
FROM sms.marrs_case
GROUP BY
    ordr_num
   ,itm_num
   ,case_num
HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;
DELETE FROM sms.marrs_case
WHERE ROWID IN
   SELECT sub_rowid
   FROM
      SELECT mc.ROWID sub_rowid
         ,rank() OVER (PARTITION BY mc.ordr_num, mc.itm_num, mc.case_num ORDER BY mc.col4 ASC) rank_dups
      FROM temp_duplicates dups
         ,sms.marrs_case mc
      WHERE
          dups.ordr_num   = mc.ordr_num
      AND dups.itm_num    = mc.itm_num
      AND dups.case_num   = mc.case_num
   WHERE rank_dups > 1

I transferred my iTunes library from one external hard drive to another and added more music on the same day. How do I get rid of my duplicate files without going through them one by one which would take forever?

Please help. I have transferred my iTunes library from one external hard drive to another plus added additional music now I have duplicates of the same music in many albums. How do I delete the duplicates without going through them one by one which would take forever? I understand how to get the "show exact duplicate" feature up on iTunes but, because they were added to the library on the exact day I can't seperate them I'm that manner. So each duplicate is right next to eachother in the exact duplicate screen.

My DeDuper script is designed to help clean up. See this thread for background.

Why does Safari take forever to open now?

For some reason Safari takes forever to open on my computer. This just started in the last week. The icon just bounces over and over until it finally stops with no triangular black arrow next to it. When I click on it again (after the initial bouncing) it slowly opens my home page. After reading all the other posts that might help my situation, I've reset Safari, checked for duplicate fonts, checked my proxies, thrown out Safari icons, etc.. Nothing seems to fix the problem. Any other suggestions?

Hi Starman
Thank you for your quick response. When I clicked the Safari icon this morning, it opened right up, so I don't know if one of the other things I tried before really did fix it or if this is just a fluke. Should I still throw out the cache in the Safari folder? I thought 'reset Safari' in the drop down menu would have already done that. Thanks for any response.

HT2905 My entire song list duplicated for some reason Do i have to delete individually (take forever), or is there a way to do it all at once?

My entire song list duplicated for some reason. Do I have to delete songs individually (take forever), or is there a way to do it all at once?

I had the same problem. Had at least 3 of each song in my library... Here's how I fixed it.
Go on iTunes to your library
Hit Shift and click on View
Scroll down to "show exact duplicate items"
the list will give you all your duplicated songs
Click at the top of the "date added" Column to sort by date added.
Even if it all happened the same day it will group your whole library by date and time added.
The time is the key...
You can start at the begining of you list and scroll to the last song that was added that day and time frame.
Everything after your last song is duplicates.
Highlight the first song hold down shift and scroll down to the last song...
Once they are all highlighted you can hit delete and send them all to the recycle bin.
It took me a while to figure it out but it works

No matter what wi-fi I'm connected to or browser I'm using, webpages take forever to load or they never load at all. Other computers do not have any problems. How can i fix this?

I've tried safari, chrome, firefox...I've cleared the cache as well. This has been going on for several months and used to be tolerable as it was not every website. Now it has become every website and is impossible to deal with. My roommates computer and my cell phone connect fine. I'm fully connected to the router yet websites don't load. I'm using 10.7.5. Thank you!!

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.

Can I change option for Consolidating Duplicate Fonts?

I work for a textbook publisher. Our materials are constantly be proofed, updated, and repurposed. Several of the titles are over 1,000 pages. We are experiencing very significant hangups when it comes to "Consolidating Duplicate Fonts" when we replace the initial page of these documents, and then again when we need to do a "Save As." Sometimes this process can take upwards of 45 minutes. This has created a production nightmare without any resolution I can find to the problem. Is there anything we can do to speed up or bypass this process without bloating the file sizes or degrading press-ready compatibility?

Thank you for your input, Luke. And, yes, I am talking about PDFs.
In normal situations, your suggestion may be a viable option. However, our printer and the vendor we use to generate/post our digital editions require completely embedded font sets (no subsets). But, I will give it a try, just to test the theory.
Our Student Edition textbooks actually run through this process at a resonable time; taking about 2–3 minutes.
Primarily, the issue happens when updating pages within our Teacher's Edition. The teacher's book pages contain an insert of the student's textbook pages. Those imported graphics for the insets are also PDFs, made from a cropped press-optimized version of the student's pages. It's my thought that is what is causing the trouble. Otherwise, this text in the teacher's book is quite simple. I'm fairly sure the app has to basically read/consolidate each of those particular pages twice. But it still shouldn't take as long as it does.
Typically, we use only four font families: Avant Garde, New Century Schoolbook, Lubalin Graph, and Jacoby. We do use a few others randomly for illustrative purposes at times, but all-in-all, we keep fairly simple in regards to font usage. I really don't believe the issue has anything to do with the quantity of fonts being used.

File is getting hung up in Consolidating Duplicate Fonts function

I have a large file that has around 50 files incorporated into it for a total of approximately 9000 pages. One "section" of the file is where the majority of files were incorporated. No one in my organization was the author of those files. The problem I have with the completed file, after a lot of pain, is that any time I go into the file to make modifications (i.e., replace pages or add pages) the action causes the file to do a function called Consolidating Duplicate Fonts which is a normal function. What is not normal is that this function gets hung up and takes almost an hour to process. The problem manifests again when I go to save the file (I always use Save As) when saving my files for optimum file size management.
When I work with this document without that section in it the file is fine.
I have tried printing to the problem files to Adobe PDF as another file and while that reduces the file size it doesn't cure the problem. I have the suspicion that there is something in the embedding of fonts that is going on. Is there any way to fix the problem of the file taking so long to consolidate the duplicate fonts?

I can only imagine that these files are huge. A portfolio may be more appropriate.

Facebook games take forever to load and all 'items' never show on screen

i have updated to Firefox (safe mode), have updated flash player and have gone through pages and pages of help articles, but any and all of my facebook games (farmville, petville, farmtown, etc.) take forever to load and after loaded move extremely slowly AND never load fully. Only 1/10 of actual "items" ever load. When I click on the normal things I have to "perform" when playing the game, it takes effect minutes later, never immediately as normal and buildings, gifts, etc., never let me use them at all.....

Consolidating duplicate fonts

First off, I am working in Adobe X Pro. Secondly, I have 22 separate documents that I need to combine, for a total of about 110 Mb. When I try to combine all at once, it displays the message "consolidating duplicate fonts" and basically shuts my computer down. If I drag each file in seperately, it takes approximately 14 hours to drag 21 files in one at a time to the original file. What is the answer here? I think it is beyond nuts that it takes 14 hours to combine a 22 document PDF! Is there some sort of font management system that I need or??? Any tips/tricks would be desparately appreciated!!!

Keynote takes forever in Lion

I just upgraded to Lion, and am using iWork 09. Takes FOREVER to do anything, and the beach ball of death seems ever present, and often goes for minutes with any little change. Why did they eliminate 'Save as'??? Backups and duplicate are nothing but a hassle. How can I speed things up without waiting for minutes? Never had this problem in SnowLeopard. Wish I could dump the new version and go back to old one.

you have to update iwork. I remember Apple has seeded an update that solves ball of deaths when using keynote in Lion. They added versions and autosave those make me foget save as

LR4 - Book module takes forever to load

OK....so I've asked this question previously on both here and the Photoshop Feedback forum, without any real answers/responses. So I'm giving it one last shot....
Here's the deal - when I first start LR4, loading the Book, Slideshow, Map and to a lesser extent, Web modules take forever. Especially the Book module - it takes a good 25-30 seconds to load. Once it's loaded it's fine. I've been told everything from "that's normal" to there's something wrong with my computer.
Laptop Spec's - Spring 2010 15" MBP 2.4 i5 with 8gigs of RAM, 256mb video RAM, 500gig 7500rpm HD.
Other's have reported similar delays (none reaching 25-30 seconds though), where as others don't have any issues at all. Would appreciate any thoughts/input/encouragement before I kick LR4 to the curb permanently.

When you open Lightroom and go to the Book Module the first time, it must do two things:
1. The Book module has a more sophisticated text engine than the other modules and it must load fonts that are installed on the system into memory. The more fonts on your system the greater the potential delay.
2. To a greater extent, when you first open the Book module, all of the page-templates must load into memory for access. Once loaded, they do not need to be loaded again until you close Lightroom.
No matter how much processor or Ram you have will not appreciably affect these two operations. They are purely disk-read operations and are primarily limited by your disk data path.
Map Module requires interface with the internet to access Maps.
Web and Slideshow can be sped up by not having large numbers of available images standing by to render. Keeping the toolbar set to "Selected Images Only" rather than "All Filmstrip Images" helps this.

K7N2 Delta ILSR Takes forever to boot.

Specs:
K7N2 Delta ILSR Mobo
Athlon xp 2500
Kingston Hyper X 2700 DDR 512mb (its on the list)
Geforce 2MX 32mb AGP videocard (I dont play games)
3 Com 56k Win Modem
IBM GXP120 60 gig ata133 Hard drive
Pine 12X DVD drive
LG 24x10x48 CD Burner
Antec 300W power supply
The problem is that it takes forever to install and boot windows with faster processors for some reason. I origianlly built this system with my old Athlon 1.33 and it had these problems. I then tried a 900mhz athlon and it worked great, so I figured I damaged my 1.33 somehow. I ordered a 2500+ and a zalmann cpu cooler and now am back to where I was, when the system starts it seems very unstable and the screen goes blank for 10 minutes while its booting. It shows about 3 seconds of the starting windows screen then the screen will go blank for a while anf there will be no hard drive activity then it will come back about 10 minutes later and then boot. Sometimes the system will work fine then sometimes I cant even open my computer i just get the searching flashlight icon where my drives should be. I have updated to the lastet BIOS. Also while installing windows I get ocasional long pauses where it is doing nothing at all then it will just magically conitnue and do it in a fashion I would expect a machine of this speed to do.

Hmm not sure about the cable position on the CD drives, ill have to check that when I get home. All the jumpers are set correcly, and the hard drive is all by itself and its on the right connector. Thanks for the ideas, this problem is really killing me, I havent had these kind of hardware problems in years. The thing I dont get is why it works good with the 900mhz and not with the 1.33 or 2500+

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not. I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again. How can I fix this?

If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them. 800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly. Hope this helps.

MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857D takes forever to erase 100MB file from CD-RW disc

My new MBP works phantastic. Only one thing is weird. The MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857D takes forever to erase contents on a CD-RW, about 5-10 times longer than my nearly 5 years old IBM Thinkpad T30.
Is this normal and expected?
MacBook Pro 15'' 2.33 Core 2 Duo 2GB RAM 160 GB HD Mac OS X (10.4.9) IBM ThinkPad T30 XP Pro

It might take longer, it depends on the type of drive your Thinkpad had. Most notebooks, even older ones, have 8x DVD ROM drives, while due to the thin nature of the MBP it has a 6x DVD ROM drive, which means it does work slower.

Firefox (for android) takes forever to load or doesn't load at all

Firefox will not load or takes forever to load (i.e. up to 3 or 4 minutes) mostly, I get an "unable to connect" "offline mode" error. Other apps that use data are able to connect to the network, but FF...not so much.
I'm on a Nexus 5 running kk 4.4.2

fixed the "offline mode" problem by following the about:config directions
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/962245]
unfortunately, pages still take so long to load it basically renders Firefox useless.
