Decreasing the size of PDF to archive.

Hi
Just wondering if anyone knows of a way to decrease the size of a pdf file that is created for archiving purposes. I have had a couple of thoughts on it.
1)I read by changing the font to Acrobat base fonts would reduce size but dont really want to go changing all the fonts on the final output of the doc.
2) Ensure no extra presentment targets are being compiled into mdf.
3) Reduce any images etc inside the ifd.
If anyone has any other suggestions i would really appreciiate them
Thanks.

Our users are not even aware that the form is being regenerated. They just click on the one they want and the underlying code knows to retrieve the original DAT file, change the job name to the one that results in a PDF being sent back to the user and places it on the server.
As far as the job name goes, it appears that since the MDF name is currently being used that in reality no job name is being provided (I think that is the case). Either that or the source of the DAT file is building the file that way. To get the customer name or account number then the source of the DAT files would have to be modified to do that.
Personally, it would definately be unmanageable if we used the MDF name as the job name because we not only use multiple MDFs per job but we have 100s of MDFs.
I don't know how many customers are involved but using that information as the job name could be cumbersome due to the potential number of job definitions that would be required.

  • Decrease the size of a series marker on a bar chart

    I am trying to decrease the size of a square series marker on a bar chart in crystal reports.
    Usually this can be achieved through the 'appearance' tab in the 'chart options' menu.
    However as I have changed one of the series(bar) on the graph into a line, this no longer seems possible.
    Is there a way around this?
    Thanks

    Hi Natalie
    In order to decrease the size of a square series marker after changing the series into line, you can use Format Series Marker -> Border -> Thickness.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can i change the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • I am trying to decrease the size of my aperature library on my MB Pro HD.  I used  file\ relocate master to move files to my External HD(EHD) and this worked.  However, the size of my MBP library has not decreased.

    I am trying to decrease the size of my aperature library on my MB Pro HD.  I used  file\ relocate master to move files to my External HD(EHD) and this worked.  However, the size of my MBP library has not decreased.  I do not want to delete the files on my MB Pro until I am confident Aperature can see the files on the EHD.  It looks like the relocate master fxn just copies the masters and data to another location. 

    Relocate master (or original in newer versions) does move and not copy the master file. Jut to make sure I just ram a test and moved some images out of the library to an external drive and they were definitely gone from the Aperture library.
    If you look at the images in the library that you moved do they have the referenced file badge? If you run a filter on your library looking for referenced files do the images you relocated show up? If you select one of the images and do a Show in Finder what does it show? Finally if you select the images and do Locate Referenced files do they appear listed as being on the volume you put them on?
    You could go into the library and look for the masters you moved to see if they are still there but if all the above show you they were relocated then I don;t think you will find them.
    How are you checking the library size? Have you quit Aperture and restarted it (better would be to log out and log back in) and then checked the size? It is possible that some of that data is cached and won't get updated till you restart.
    Finally you could do a library repair in case something got 'stuck'.

  • How to decrease the size of a table

    Hi ,
    I have dropped a table on UI ... By default this table wont have any data .What i want that i should be able to decrease the size of table.
    I want that we should be able to show only 4-5 rows and have a scroll bar if we have more records.

    you need 16 pixel for each row, 14 pixel for the non-wrapped table header, and 16 pixel for the horizontal scroll bar, if it is displayed.
    so for your case you need to display 5 rows
    set the <b>inlineStyle</b> for your table from the property inspector to
    inlineStyle="height:110px;"
    <b>Thank to Frank Nimphius for his book</b>

  • Can anyone explain what the 'other' storage consists of and how I can decrease the size please?

    Can anyone explain what the 'other' storage consists of and how I can decrease the size please?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    "Other" refers to OS X files, caches, downloads, documents. See Other in this website > http://pondini.org/OSX/LionStorage.html
    I would not worry about Other because they contain files that you need, but if you want to decrease the size, start deleting downloads and documents

  • Can we decrease the size of existing datafile?

    Hi,
    can we decrease the size of existing datafile?
    Thanks,

    It is a very nice script.
    But it does not deal with something that appears to be being 'pushed' by some contributors (OK, one, really) to this forum as a suitable 'fix' for some performance problems: using multiple block sizes in one database. It's not surprising the script doesn't deal with this, though, because Tom Kyte has never particularly approved of using multiple blocksizes like that.
    Being specific, the script at Ask Tom queries for the setting of db_block_size parameter and uses that to work out what a datafile can be shrunk to. If you have datafiles using non-standard block sizes, however, then that script will not work correctly for them.
    It's always potentially dangerous making use of 5-year old scripts found on the internet, even somewhere as good as Ask Tom.
    It's also a good demonstration as to why, for at least one reason, it's potentially dangerous following Mr. Burleson's advice on multiple block sizes.

    Yes. But use SQL statements for the drop!
    alter database drop logfile group <number of the group to drop>;Don't worry, you can not drop groups with that command that are still needed by the system.
    Besides, 10m is very small for log groups. Most DBAs would consider to increase the size from 100m to a higher value instead of decreasing the size.

  • How to decrease the size of image using a java peogram

    Hi All,
    I want to decrease the size of an image from MB to KB. I have some images of size around 1MB to 3MB. While displaying all those images in the browser it is taking so much time to download all those and display. So I want to write a Java program to make a duplicate copies of those images, which are small in height and width and display those images in small size. Basically I need to display all the list of images as thumbnail view or list view with faster speed.
    Thanks in advance..
    Upendra P.

    I read the documentation. There is no corresponding Image class. The other
    classes are like BufferedImage and all.Yes BufferedImage sounds like what you want.
    You could (1) Read the image (2) Obtain its dimensions and create a blank
    scaled image (3) Draw a scaled version of the original image using the
    Graphics2D obtained from the smaller one. (4) Save the smaller image.
    The javax.util.ImageIO class will help with reading and writing the data and
    Sun's Tutorial has a section on "2D Graphics".

  • Dynamic pdf up to 200 images, the size of pdf is larger, cannot save data and images to the form

    Hi all,
    My client would like to dynamic images up to 200 pictures to my forms. It is working fine. However, when I add images up to 35 images. I could not add images to the form any more. Then, I save data on the form. All images and data typed on the form are disappeared. I don't know reason.
    If I only add 10 images - I can save data and images on the form. The size of pdf is 15456 kb.  I was unable to  add more pictures or data on the form.
    Maybe there are problem the size of pdf? How much size can an dynamic pdf  limited?
    Can we save the information and images as much as we want?
    I have spent 2 weeks to work and try to figure out this problem. However it is not successful.
    Please help,
    Cindy

    You should ensure, that your users do not import big images.
    Therefore you can use a script on the change event of an image field which checks the data size and warns the user if the file is too big.
    function formatNumber(number) {
        var num = number + '',
        x = num.split('.'),
        x1 = x[0],
        x2 = x.length > 1 ? '.' + x[1] : '',
        rgx = /(\d+)(\d{3})/;
        while (rgx.test(x1)) {
            x1 = x1.replace(rgx, '$1' + ',' + '$2');
        return x1 + x2 + "KB";
    var sizeLimit = 200, //allow upto 200KB images
      thisSize = Math.round((this.value.oneOfChild.value.length * 3 / 4) / 1024);
    if (sizeLimit > 0) {
      if (thisSize > sizeLimit) {
      xfa.host.messageBox("Note: With " + formatNumber(thisSize) + " the size of the imported image is greater that the recommended maximum of " + formatNumber(sizeLimit) + ".\nLarge images can cause a insufficent performance.\n\nIf possible, use images with the following recommended specs:\nFormat:\t\tPNG or JPG\nColor depth:\t8 Bit (higher is not supported)\nColor space:\tRGB (CMYK is not supported)\nFile Size:\t\t" + formatNumber(sizeLimit), "Recommended image size exceeded", 3, 0);

  • How to manage the size of PDFs with attachments that have attachments

    I have a "Master" PDF file that has two attached files, one for each path the user can take. The attached documents for the two paths have multiple files attached to them. Those files are the same in both documents, but must be accessed from the "path" files. The result is that I have a HUGE file. Is there a way to let the two attached files share the same attached documents so that they are attached to the master only once, not twice? Or is there another way I can control the size of the "master" file?
    Thanks so much.

    PDF attachments gets saved within the PDF and become a part of it and cannot be used as relative file path further, however you can create links and assign common files to them.

  • Anyone know how to change the size of PDFs in the iBooks library?

    I was wondering if there was a way to increase the size of the thumbnails for PDFs in the iBooks library on your iPad. It's hard to read them at this default size and just about every other app in creation (several of them modeled after OSX's own file folder display system) will allow you to zoom in on thumbnails or change the orientation so that they are grouped in a way that makes them easier to see. My kingdom for a slider-majigger at the bottom of the screen!
    Anyway, does my request make sense? Also, am I missing something, or is that feature just not available?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can adjust the time of each slide in the slideshow settings, which you'll find above the thumbnails of the slides when you open the photo album on the Apple TV.
    Note, not all of the slideshow options have time settings.

  • How to decrease the size of H263 video

    I want to generate a captured video to H263 format.
    Now I am sucessful to generate it to the format.But the size of the generated file seems a bit large.
    I think I can solve this problem by the means changing the parameters' value that is passed to the H263Format constructor.
    But I don't know how to adjust these values because I don't know much about H263's parameters
    Can someone do me the favor to tell me how to adjust the parameters below to decrease the video's size.
    Thx in advance
    H263Format
    public H263Format(java.awt.Dimension size,
                      int maxDataLength,
                      java.lang.Class dataType,
                      float frameRate,
                      int advancedPrediction,
                      int arithmeticCoding,
                      int errorCompensation,
                      int hrDB,
                      int pbFrames,
                      int unrestrictedVector)
        Constructs an H263Format object with the specified attributes.
        Parameters:
            size - A Dimension that specifies the frame size.
            maxDataLength - The maximum size of the compressed data array.
            dataType - The class type of the data.
            frameRate - The frame rate of the video.
            advancedPrediction - Specifies whether or not the H.263 advanced prediction capability (H.263 Annex F) is used.
            arithmeticCoding - Specifies whether or not the H.263 arithmetic coding capability (H.263 Annex E) is used.
            errorCompensation - Specifies whether or not the H.263 error compensation capability is used.
            hrDB - Specifies the H.263 Hypothetical Reference decoder buffer.
            pbFrames - Specifies whether or not the H.263 PB Frames capability (H.263 Annex G) is used.
            unrestrictedVector - Specifies whether or not the H.263 unrestricted motion vector capability (H.263 Annex D) is used.

    Usually you would have the video in other format diferent from h263, so you have to encode it with a processor. You must configure a processor and set the format from the video track to h263. Dont use the larger constructor, use simply:
    videotrackcontrol.setFormat(new VideoFormat(VideoFormat.H263));
    Then realize and start the processor. Take care with the syncronize.
    But you will need that the datasource of the processor has your preferred size before create it. And notice not all sizes are compatible with h263.

  • How to decrease the size of an Image in iAD

    Hello, there!
    I am trying to producer a new slide where I can write text in iAD.
    I have problems with it though and can you please tell me how to add new slides, where I can either write text or add new objects or assets?
    Also when I try to use the CAROUSEL, I can only put it there, but once I put the asset image on it, it doesnt work - I can't place the image in the center of each boxe and it doesn't go full screen once I click on on it through my iPod Touch (5th Generation).
    Please answer me those questions and I would be very happy indeed

    You may want to use Image > Image size... and dial in the sizes you want.
    Set your units to mm in the dialog. Turn off resample and you can adjust the final print size.
    What I am showing you is called "scaling", changing the print size without throwing out pixels as resample would do. Your image is  intact. This is from CS6, but it should be about the same in CS5.

  • How to decrease the size of an image (CS5)?

    I need help with how to reduce the size of an image to fit various smaller sizes.  E.g. 135 x 380mm, 254 x254mm etc mounted/matted. Therefore, the image must be made smaller than these sizes without losing quality and any part of the image. I am unable to crop to achieve these sizes since I need the full image. These photos were taken by using a Canon D450 camera and in both RAW & JPEG.
    Your help is much appreciated.
