Edit with Small Files, Finish with Big - How? (CS4)

I've been shooting a project in 1080 AVCHD and PP CS4 works fine editing them on my desktop system.
My laptop: not so much.
I'd like to make small-sized copies of my source clips and edit them in CS4 on my laptop while traveling -- then once the cut is done (or mostly done), move the same project to the desktop machine, swap-in the original source clips, and deliver from those. A bit like the old days of online/offline or having your film negative conformed to your workprint edit.
How? "Conforming" seems to mean something completely different in CS4, is there some keyword I should search for?
Thanks.

I think the word you want is " Proxy "
Here is a link for After Effects but the info should help you find what you want.

Small file get extremely big after saving with Excel 2013

A file who is only 666Kb big with Excel 2007 is opened with Excel 2013. When I direct safe that file, the size increases to more than 6GB. Opening that file takes more than one minute. And Excel seems to crasch.(Not responding) The problem seems to be one
(1) sheet. when I delete rows the size of that file is increasing up to 16 GB. This means a less filed excel sheet, makes a bigger file.

Hi,
The issue seems happened in the special file and it may be caused by the conditional formatting, cell format, formula calculation automatic or macros,ect. Please see the thread which some communicators discussed:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-excel/why-do-my-excel-files-become-huge/8235dc08-aa70-4a65-9892-b776790d79c5?page=1
Then, we may try the Mr. Ashish's suggestion:
=====
1. Identify the last filled up row of data and click on any cell in one row below that
2. Select from that row till the end and delete all rows
3. Do the same for columns
4. Save and close the file
5. Shut down MS Excel
6. Reopen the file
=====
If the issue still exists, please copy all the content to new/blank Excel 2013 file to test.

Laptop editing with Premiere Pro CS4: what are the most important specs

Laptop Editing: What are the MOST important specs?
Hello everybody, I have been a long time lurker, but I decided to join in and share my voice.
I've been editing, for a while now, various projects of various lenghts shot on my HV20, on an IMac using Adobe Premiere Pro. Actually, I bought the CS4 Extended Production Suite last year thinking that it made sense to be able to edit, do the coloring and effects+ sound all within the same suite.
AND, it came with OnLocation, wich is, I think, a fantastic tool. I really want to be able to record and monitor my future shoots using OnLocation. I've seen how useful monitors and scopes are on set, and the idea of being able to shoot in HD and actually checking the focus on something larger than a few inches is very appealling!
So a laptop is in my future. Now, what are the most important specs?
I could buy 1) a barely used Macbook pro early 08- 17" HD led display ,4g Ram ddr2 ,nvidia 8600M GT 512 VRAM ,800Mhz BUS, 200G 7200HD
and have enough money left to buy an Apple Display 30" refurb
OR 2) a new Macbook pro 17, 4 g Ram ddr3, 512 VRAm, 4g Ram ddr3, double procsessors 9400M+9600M GT 512 VRAM, 1066 BUS, 500G 7200HD
and wait for a second display!
Plus, of course, a portable External Scratch Drive on the Express Card. Now, if that fast drive is handling the footage, could'nt I settle for a 5400HD in the laptop,, they seem much less prone to problems-clicking noise, heat-than the 7200, especially in the new unibody model. Is 800 versus 1066 BUS a terrible trade-off? In terms of secondary displays , I've heard less than lukewarm things about the new Apple 24 LED (glossy is no-no for me).
My intentions are to make documentaries and short fictions as well. I make a living as an actor so I don't need to be performing as a director/editor business wise!
I do want to explore that side of the craft, in a professional and enjoyable way though. I know that, in addition to the laptop, I will get a MacPro in a few years.
Thanks a lot for the inputs!

Successful video editing (as compared to tear your hair out video editing) requires at least two hard drives... one for all software and one for all data... some people use 3 drives, with data on one and scratch files on the 3rd drive
I'm not sure about software, but everything I've ever read in this forum says 5400 is NOT fast enough for the data drive
If you want to edit video... you have to buy the hardware that works

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?

Well, you don't. Editing a PDF is a difficult and fraught business even with the most expensive software.
But PDF Pack lets you export to Word; then often you can edit in Word. Now you can make a new PDF. It might look like the original, or it might not. If small changes matter you might be out of luck. ON NO ACCOUNT USE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT FORMS.

Hi,

With Premiere elements 11, when Publish/Share (saving) a finished video, selecting H.264 .mov file type, what are the recommended Codec and Aspect settings for a crisp video and a small file size?

Gary Krouse
We will customize a very detailed reply, but
(a) What are the properties of your source media?
(b) What did you or the program set as the project preset to match the properties of the source media?
(c) What specific requirements do you have for this H.264.mov export file?
File size can be a compromise between bitrate, file size, and quality.
Thanks.

Pdf file is too big (7MB). Need a pdf file with max size 4MB. How to minimize the size of a pdf file?

pdf file is too big (7MB). Need a pdf file with max size 4MB. How to minimize the size of a pdf file?

The other alternative is the Save As Other>Reduce File Size. The PDF Optimizer gives you more control. You might also use the audit feature in the PDF Optimizer to see where the size problem is coming from. You might find that in the WORD file you can select and image and then go to the FORMAT (pictures) menu and select compress for all of the bitmaps in the file. That will typically use 150 dpi by default that is adequate for most needs.

How do i edit a pdf file with acrobat 9 standard

i have a doc that was sent to me thru email, i saved it as a pdf file now i want to edit it and it seems impossible. Please help!
Thank you

First choice is to edit the source file with its 'host' application.
Acrobat provides the TouchUp Text tool for *minor* touchups.
But, regardless of this PDF is not an editing / layout / formatting format.
Be well...

How to save a indesign file so can be edited with word

Just wanting to know if there is a way that I can save a indesign file or illustrator file that most aspects can be edited with word, mainly just the type edited with word? I have CS 5.5

Just to throw out the obvious (which isn't obvious to everyone, so I thought I'd mention it), but this isn't a "round-trip to Word to edit an InDesign file" thing. It's a "turn an InDesign file into a Word file" thing. Once it's a Word file, any edits you make won't reflect in the InDesign file. Although that would be handy, the way to edit text in a more word-processor-friendly environment without having to edit the actual InDesign file is to use InCopy.

Working with big files

I would appreciate any suggestion as to how best one can work with big files. I have eight one hour tapes containing information about various places I visited. Some contain only one place while others can contain two or more places. As a preference I like to create up to one hour DVDs that contain an identifiable segment; eg either one place only or more but I do try not to break up a place and record it on two DVDs. However, the problem I faced in the past, is that by the time I get to the end of an hour, the program Premiere Elements 7 (PE7) is getting slow and keeps telling me that it is running out of memory. That is despite the fact that I have 3 GM of RAM and over 200 GB of dedicated separate hard drive. I tried saving segments under ‘Share’, ‘DV AVI’ and selecting ‘DV PAL Standard’ (the system I use), but the result, as far as quality was concerned, was very disappointing. There is no option to change or set quality as was the case in previous versions of PE. Nor can I combine two .prel files into one while I am editing.
Is there any other way I can work in segments, say 15 minutes, and combine them at the end without losing on the quality?
Any suggestion would be most appreciated.
Tom

Hi Steve
It is a Sony DCR-HC40E PAL, and they were captured as AVI clips.
The project settings are:
General – not highlighted but it shows DV Pal and 25.00 frame/second
Video – 720 horizontal 576vertical (4/3)
Display format - 25 fps Timecode
Capture – DV Capture

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

Can no longer edit app descriptor file with 3.4 - really?

Until now, when publishing to AIR from Flash Professional, I could manually edit the app descriptor XML with a little workaround:
1. Set up my publish settings in Flash Professional and click OK
2. Then edit the XML file and save it
3. Then Publish from Flash Professional WITHOUT opening the Publish Settings again (which would recreate the XML file).
This has been CRUCIAL to me in order to add certain elements to the XML file such as <extensions> I want to include with my project.
However, this seems impossible to do with the 3.4 AIR SDK release version. When I try, it ignores my manual edits of the XML file and simply removes them when I publish. This is a HUGE problem because now I can no longer add <extensions> in the app descriptor file (and this can't be done from the Flash Professional GUI).
Anyone have ANY idea how to keep adding my extensions to the app descriptor file?

Hello,
I have the same problem, but not the same solution : I have an old air application under Air 2.0, with an automatic updater, and wanted to make an intermediate application as seen here : http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/update-air-2-or-earlier.html .
So I have to change the application descriptor by hand. But Flash CS6 always overwrite this descriptor with its own datas while exporting.
How can I change my application descriptor for this intermediate version ? I have Flash CS5, but not Flash CS5.5, and the extension for Flash CS5 doesn't exist anymore !
Thanks !
