Email button "actual size" attaches reduced size

I recently noticed that when I use the "email button" in iphoto to email a photo and select "actual size" it ends up creating an email with the photo at a reduced size, however this does not happen when I attach photos using the photo browser button in Apple Mail. For instance I attached a 4.5 MB image directly from iphoto using the email button the image in the email ended up being 2.3 MB even though I selected actual size. I then opened Apple Mail and composed a new message, I selected the same photo with the photo browser button, dragged and dropped it and it attached at actual size. Is there any way to attach at actual size using the iphoto email button?

LN,
Thanks for the info. When I email the photo via the iphoto email button and select actual size, actual size is also selected in the email and the file size is still reduced. In addition the size reduction varies from email to email. For instance if I try to send the same 4.5 MB photo from iphoto it may make it 2.3 MB in one email and 3.0 MB in another, both times actual size was selected in iphoto and the email? Any ideas? Thanks again!

Did Lion's iTunes remove the video menu options to increase size and reduce size?

Did Lion's iTunes remove the video menu options to increase size and reduce size?
Is the ability to shrink or expand the video window from a menu item now really gone?

Itunes has not changed in Lion in this regard, you can still go to fullscreen from the menu, and use your input device to make the video window larger and smaller. does that help?

ICloud email rejects 1.3MB attachment - message size violation

what's going on? Someone is trying to send me a pages document - 1.3MB file size - to my iCloud email, and it bounces back with "Message size violation". I have plenty of space left on iCloud account and this has never happened before.. **** poor Apple!!

Seems to me that I'm getting same error when I'm sending a zipped file containing many folders and files inside...
It's only 2.8MB .ZIP.
No problems if I send an even bigger jpeg image.
Weird.

Email button presets

Hello,
I need some help adapting the script below to my form:
https://acrobat.com/#d=Nm2jjpCvBeW9w-T4mXtuWA.
I took a stab at placing the submission script below in the submit button of my form and when it's done and saved and re-opened as a PDF, if you click submit, it does pop up with the javascript window asking you if you want to use your default mail client (in our case outlook) but if i hit ok in that window nothing else happens. The goal is that the person clicks submit and an outlook new message pops up with the filled form attached and the to field pre-populates with my email.
I really like the idea they suggest here, to have the option of saving a "flattened" copy of the filled in form to your computer.
I used LiveCycle ES2
Your help is unimaginably appreciated.

Re: Saving Fillable Form as non-fillable PDF
Another very simple (less advance) approach would be to make the ENTIRE form protected, readOnly, nonInteractive, etc. by using the following script:
xfa.form.form1.access = "protected";
In my situation (if this helps anyone), all I wanted to do was enable my user to click an email button to auto-attach a copy of his/her form to an outgoing email, BUT prior to sending the email, I wanted the form to be flattened (i.e. protected). After the email was sent, I wanted it return back to it's open state. So what I did was create a custom email submit button, and added very simple scripts for the preSubmit and postSubmit events. NOTE: This assumes your user is using an email client which will auto-generate an outgoing email (vs. using an Internet email service like GMAIL). If you're using an interent email service, the follwoing scripts will work.
1. Email button: This custom email button script allows me to set the subject, body message, to/cc fields, etc. and email the entire form (wth proper Rights) to a given recipient(s).
Placed on a standard button's click event:
var choice = xfa.host.messageBox("Press OK to submit this form using your default email client (e.g. Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Mail, etc.). Note: A copy of this form will be automatically attached to your email. \n\nPress Cancel if you currently use an Internet email service such as Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo to send email. You will need save this form on your computer and then manually attach it to an outgoing email (using your Internet email service) addressed to: [email protected]", " ", 3, 1);
// Note: the above text was taken directly from the typical email submit button text. This gives you a way to modify the text if you want.
if (choice == 1){
var mail;
var address = "[email protected]";
var ccadd = ccAdd.rawValue; //taken from a field placed on the form
var sub = "Subject goes here";
var body = "See attatched file.";
mail = "mailto: " + address + "?cc=" + ccadd + "&subject=" + sub + "&body=" + body;
event.target.submitForm({
cURL: mail,
bEmpty: true,
cSubmitAs: "PDF",
cCharset: "utf-8"
else{
ProcessManager.terminateAction();
2. Script added to same email button (created above) to "Protect" ALL form fields PRIOR to the form being emailed. Place on preSubmit event:
xfa.form.form1.access = "protected";
3. Script added to same email button (created above) to "reopen" ALL form fields AFTER it the form has been submitted. Place on postSubmit event:
xfa.form.form1.access = "open";
From there, the user can save/SaveAs the original file (currently opened on-screen, with active fields), knowing that he's sent a protected copy. Please note that you've sent a "form" with protect fields...it's still a form, vs a truly "flattened copy". So if security is a major concern, you'd probably want to use a different approach: for example, a digital signature to track from integrity, or print to PDF. Also, this assumes you;re not concerned with tracking "mandatory fields" etc.
As an alternate Step 3, you could interject a SaveAs script on the postSubmit event [app.execMenuItem("SaveAs") ] to allow your user to save a copy of the protected file somewhere on his/her computer after emailing it. Then he/she could simply cancel the current form (on-screen) - without saving it. This assumes you are not concerned with saving an "open field" version with completed data.
Hopes this helps someone!

Anyone else having this issue or able to reproduce it?

Email Button format

I have created a form with an email button, however it attaches the file in XML and I would like it to be sent as PDF. Can someone direct me to where I change this. Using Acrobat Pro 8
Thank you
Gary

OK. Normally I'd send you over to the LiveCycle Designer forum, but it hasn't been working today. What you need to do is use a regular button, as opposed to an email submit button. Then open the Object palette for the button and select the Submit tab. There you'll see where you can enter a URL and select the "Submit As" format. Just choose PDF for the latter. For the URL, use a mailto type URL like:
mailto:[email protected]
making sure to keep "mailto" in lower-case and don't include any spaces.

Actual Size (Full Quality) photos being e-mailed at reduced sizes! Why?

Yesterday I e-mailed six photos to a party in Nova Scotia. Because of the large file size of the photos--ranging from 6.7 MB to 9.2 MB--I opted to e-mail each photo individually. In iPhoto I chose the Actual Size (Full Quality) size setting for each photo.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered that every photo was e-mailed at a reduced size. For example, the indicated attachment size for the 6.7 MB photo was only 4.6 MB, and for the 9.2 MB photo only 6.1 MB. This is the first time I have noticed photos being e-mailed at reduced sizes even when the Actual Size (Full Quality) size setting has been chosen.
I would appreciate knowing what is going on here and what I need to do to remedy this situation.
Bob

Terence,
The problem remains unresolved. I followed your recommended procedure and got the same bizarre result!
I selected in iPhoto the same 9.2 MB photo I e-mailed to Nova Scotia yesterday, clicked on the Email icon, and selected Actual Size (Full Quality). The Mail 1 Photo window correctly showed the estimated size as 9.2 MB. I clicked on the Compose Message button which took me to the E-mail message window. I verified that the Image Size indicated at the lower right hand corner of the window was Actual Size. Interestingly enough, the Message Size indicated in the lower left hand corner of the window was 8.2 MB. Somehow my photo size was reduced 1 MB in the process of it being prepared for E-mail delivery! I then e-mailed the photo to myself. When I opened it up it showed 1 Attachment, 6.1 MB. This is the exact same result I got when I originally e-mailed this photo to Nova Scotia.
My primary concern here is that the quality of these photos is likely being compromised by this size reduction phenomenon which I have not previously noticed. I'm wondering whether this is a problem with iPhoto '09, Version 8.1 (415) to which I just recently upgraded from iPhoto '06. For your information I have also long employed iPhoto Library Manager (Currently version 3.5.5).
Perhaps you can try this same procedure and see if you get the same goofy result. I'll be eagerly awaiting your reply and advice on how to resolve this issue.

Emailing photos actual size

My emailed photo is being automatically reduced to a much smaller size, even when I select 'actual' size, and it tells me it is 3.2MBs, the actual file size sent is 118kb. I have tried sending in various ways and the same thing happens-this photo is for a newspaper article therefore they need it in the original size. How can I do this?

When Mail open's and the e-mail window is opened look in the lower right hand corner and set the image size to actual - Also make sure you are exporting the image as actual size from your photo edit app.

Can you send an email with multiple photos from iPhoto in reduced size?

I want to send an email with multiple photos attached with a reduced size. How do I accomplish this?

Hi Igmatteson,
If you are using regular Mac Mail, and you are on Mountain Lion, this is what I can do:
1. Go into Mail, and start a new message
2. At the top, you will see 4 icons - the third one over brings up the Photo Browser from iPhoto
3. Go through your pics and select the one you want and drag it onto the mail page
4. Once you have done that, a small bar on the right-hand side will show up that will allow you to select whether you want the image size to be small, medium, or large. Once you select a size, all photos you add will be that same size.
Hope this works for you!
Cheers,
GB

When you email from iPhoto, you have a choice as to the size of the picture - choose medium and your friends will be able to see them. By the way, do your friends click on the photo attachment in the mail to open it?

The size of created PDFs cannot be reduced in the current version. If you are referring to large presentations before converting them to PDFs, you can try accessing them on your iDevice via applications such as DropBox.

Upgrade from 4.0.3 to 5.0 or 6.0? And how to reduce size of photo?

I am using an old iMac installed with Mac OS 10.3.9 and iPhoto 4.0. If I want to upgrade to iPhoto 5.0 or 6.0, can i do it using the current OS? And is it free like iTunes upgrade?
I also need to reduce the size of a pic from several hundred KBytes to 50KBytes. How can I do it? I don't have Photoshop or any similar stuff?

iPhoto is part the "iLife" package.
To get the current version of iPhoto requires that you update/upgrade to the iLife 06 package.
To reduce the size of a picture, you can do this:
In iPhoto, select the picture(s) you want to scale down (reduce file size).
Click on the "email" button at the bottom of the iPhoto window.
iPhoto will ask what size you want them to be (S, M, L), and them paste them into a new email document for sending.
If you don't WANT to send an email, just save it as a Draft email, and save it for later.
You can then drag the pictures form the email document to your desktop, or to any other folder when you want them.
You can also save copies with the ave email attachment command in the iPhoto main menu (I believe true for most versions).
good luck!

DLP Attachment Scanning - Size Limitations

Is it documented anywhere what the attachment file size limitations are for DLP scanning? In the ESA Configuration documentation I read:
"To scan attachments, the content scanning engine extracts the attachment for the RSA Email DLP scanning engine to scan."
Can you identify what scanning engine is referenced by "content scanning engine" and what is the maximum attachment size it can process? Also are those settings modifiable and some indcation of performance impact if they are increased to a maximum of 50 MB per attachment?
I know you can make some modifications in the DLP policy, however it is our desire to DLP scan every document sent up to our allowable maximum email size.
If large attachments cannot be scanned we may be forced to reduce our maximum message/attachment file size.
We are currently using Async O/S 7.5.1-102 and will be moving to 7.6.0 when it comes GA.

Hello David,
The content scanning engine in reference is the same AsyncOS scanning engine responsible or Message and Content Filter scanning. The maximum size of attachment to scan for this scanning engine is controlled by your 'scanconfig' setttings, as configured in the IronPort CLI. The default 'maximum size of attachment to scan' is 5MB.
IronPort1.example.com>scanconfig
There are currently 6 attachment type mappings configured to be SKIPPED.
Choose the operation you want to perform:
- NEW - Add a new entry.
- DELETE - Remove an entry.
- SETUP - Configure scanning behavior.
- IMPORT - Load mappings from a file.
- EXPORT - Save mappings to a file.
- PRINT - Display the list.
- CLEAR - Remove all entries.
- SMIME - Configure S/MIME unpacking.
[]> setup
1. Scan only attachments with MIME types or fingerprints in the list.
2. Skip attachments with MIME types or fingerprints in the list.
Choose one:
[2]>
Enter the maximum depth of attachment recursion to scan:
[5]>
Enter the maximum size of attachment to scan:
[5242880]>
<...>
Any message that is larger than this limit will be skipped by the scanning engine. This would mean that pertinent DLP policys and filters would not match that same message. Naturally, allowing larger messages to be scanned will result in performance risks, as more system resources would be required to complete the content scanning.
Regards,
-Jerry

You select the printer properties and set the appropriate page size (I think there is a place to set it in PDF Maker too, but not sure). In the printer, this is equivalent to putting the proper paper in the printer.
