Email review creates workflows file size that makes Acrobat 9 unbearably slow.

I have been using the email review features in Acrobat pro version 9.3.1. All was going fine until, apparently, my workflows file got to around 1.5mb. If I understand correctly this is the file that Review Tracker uses to track PDF emailed for review.
The problem is Acrobat becomes unbearably slow to open and operate.
I narrowed down the reason by opening Acrobat with no plugins loaded and it operated fine. Then by enabling and disabling various plugins I found that when any plug-in having something to do with the commenting and tracking process was enabled acrobat again became unbearably slow. Through searching on this forum I found the workflows file that is created for tracking email reviews. I discovered with all plug-ins enabled and with the workflow file removed acrobat operated fine when I put the file back it again opens and operates unbearably slow.
So I know how to make Acrobat operate correctly by removing the Workflows file. Acrobat will create a new one if I start another review. The big problem is I have lost all my tracking on previous reviews.
I was wondering if anyone else might have had a similar problem when the Workflows file became larger than 1.5mb or so?
Does anyone know of a way I can keep my previous email reviews and still have acrobat operate correctly?
I also wonder if this will happen again?
Thank you for your time and knowledge.

Flattening should be expected to make files bigger, much bigger in the worst case. It is rarely a way to reduce size, though sometimes it will be - it all depends on what is in the file.
An example where it could reduce size is where a series of images are overlayed transparently. This would end up being a single one. There may be cases where lots of layers get consolidated into something simpler, but if the layers were vector and the result is raster it won't.
So, flattening might be a useful tool, but it's best to try it and test the result.
Better still to stop the proprietary software from choking... !

    20mb, but I would suggest leaving a little space. 15 is reliable.

  • Cannot rename DC, "Cannot create a file when that file already exists."

    Hi,
    A long time ago we used a domain controller named jacob.mydomain.lan.  It was removed, possibly in a 'dirty' way, and now we cannot re-use that name for another domain controller.  In the meantime we have upgraded to Win 2012 domain controllers
    now, and when I enter this to rename:
    netdom computername ourdc.mydomain.lan /add:jacob.mydomain.lan
    I get the error:  "Unable to add jacob.mydomain.lan as an alternate name for the computer.  The error is:  Cannot create a file when that file already exists."
    If I enter: 
    netdom computername ourdc.mydomain.lan /remove:jacob.mydomain.lan
    I get: "The command completed successfully", but it still refuses to add jacob.mydomain.lan
    After each attempt to add a forward zone dns record 'jacob.ourdomain.lan' has been created.  I always erase this manually afterwards.
    What is the problem? How can I search to find the offending 'file' named 'jacob'?
    Thanks a lot for help on this.

    I suggest you wait 30 days instead of 3 days before you enthusiastically close threads. Some people might think you are being a jerk if you don't.

  • File sizes that are twice as big in PS CC after cropping compared to cs5

    I'm getting file sizes that are twice as big when I resample an image in PS CC compared to what I was getting in cs5. Anyone know why and what I can do to correct it?

    Wrong forum.
    What file format are you saving in?
    What compression/quality setting are you using if any?
    Are you working in 8 or 16 bits?

  • Cannot create a file when that file already exists, but should overwrite

    Hi,
    I need the same file name which is at Sender side and when it reaches to Receiver directory without timestamp.
    for eg., Sender side : Yeswanth.txt
    and also receiver side   :  Yeswanth.txt
    but, here it should overwrite the existing file (because, the sender side file name is always constant) at receiver directory when the job schedules for each time.
    Processing parameters i has given on Receiver side:
    File Construction Mode  :  Create
    put file  : Use Temporary File
    and I enabled the Adapter Specific Message Attributes at Sender side and Receiver side.
    Error getting receiver side at communication channel :
    Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException:
    Yeswanth.txt: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. : com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550

    Hi Yeswanth
    Then you can try with a "Add Counter". This will create new file each time with the same name but a counter will be added to the file name at the end specifying the number of times it is created.
    You can also the specify the format to create the counter once select this option u can correspondingly fill the Format and step fields.
    Will this be fine.

    Hi,
    By default the maximum file size is 128 MB. You can configure that in visual administrator.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/05/35e13d8ee48f5ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    If you as administrator need to upload a file with larger size, you can use km file repository like etc. and can upload file from OS.

  • Maximum file size that OSB can handle for JMS

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to process 60MB xml files over JMS in Oracle Service Bus. While prototyping this we are facing heap space errors.
    Can somebody let me know what is the maximum file size that we can process? The scenario is as below.
    JMS --> OSB --> JMS --> OSB --> JMS
    Thanks

    if you don't need to access the entire content of the message, you can try using content streaming
    (see this OSB - Iterating over large XML files with content streaming discussion)
    See also here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/userguide/context.html#wp1110513 for best practices.
    Otherwise I have noticed myself that OSB is very hungry in memory when loading large messages. I had trouble even with a 5 MB binary file being loaded - this would take 500 MB RAM. in these cases I would rather look for ETL tools such as Oracle Data Integrator or Open Source Pentaho.

    There seem to be already some files in your Target Directory with the same name as your new files (which the CC is trying to place) and the CC is not able to overwrite the existing files and hence the error...check this.
    Check: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/EN/44/69d7cfa4b633eae10000000a1553f6/content.htm
    14.      Select the File Construction Mode.
    u25CB       Create
    The file is created. The document received last is saved in each case.
    If you want the created file to be overwritten, select Overwrite Existing File. If you do not set the indicator, processing is stopped until the created file is processed.
    You can only set the indicator if you select Use Temporary File under Put File below.

  • What is the max file size that a Adapter Engine [J2SE] can handle ?

    We are having a scenario where a 4 GB compressed file needs to be sent across without mapping, I'm trying to explore the possible options to tackle this scenario.
    Some of the options, we are considering :
    - Sending a file from one Adapter Engine [J2SE] to another Adapter Engine [J2SE] bypassing PI. Adapter Logs will be monitored. What is the maximum file size that can be then handled assuming a standard installation ?
    - What is the max file size that Adapter Engine [J2SE] can send through PI without mapping?
    Any help with the above options or with any other possible solutions to handle extremely large file transfers will be much appreciated.

    Hi,
    j2se is not a good option here
    if you have 4gb then you need a copy solution
    a) build an proxy that will just copy the file from sender dest to receiver
    b) build an adapter that will do the same as proxy)
    this way processing of this message will be controlled with SAP PI/XI
    it will be as quick as copy & paste of the 4gb file
    I did the a) for one of the flow for 300 mb and it works perfectly

  • What is the list of file prefixes that make a file appear first in the finder?

    Hi!
    I was just curious :
    What is the list of file prefixes that make a file appear first in the finder?
    For example, files and folders whose names start with "A" will appear before files whose names start with "B",
    but what about a list of characters for files and folders before the letter "A"?
    I'm doing some file organisation, and I need certain things to appear at the top of the list.
    I have noticed that the character-prefixes "0" and "(" seem to make things appear before "A"
    I would like a complete list if there is one available.
    Thank you!

    Pretty much any number or a space character. Punctuation does too, in theory, but I'd advise to limit it to hyphens and underscores. Periods are OK in the middle of file names but you won't be able to start a file name with one at the Finder level since that would actually hide the file.

  • What is the file size that ODI can handle

    Hi all,
    What is the file size that ODI can handle ?????????
    can it handle 1GB files without any issues?????????
    Thanks
    Phani

    Hi Phani,
    It also depends on the type of file you are transfering. If have used the XML file around 1GB and the performance is very low. But we used the Database schema to load the XML data and the performance had increased very well.
    I never tried the large flat files load around 1GB.

  • The cluster service terminated, error 7024, cannot create a file when that file already exists

    I have a test 2-node Failover cluster using Server 2012 R2
    As of last night the cluster service on one of the 2 nodes is down with this error:
    The Cluster Service service terminated with the following service-specific error:

    EventID 7024
    The Cluster service waits 60 sec, tries to start, and the same error occurs again. 
    Any idea where to look to identify which file this error is referring to, or how to go about identifying root cause and getting a solution?

  • Cannot create a file when that file already exists

    When i try to use Photoshop filters: Adaptive Wide Angle, Shake Reduction and Liquify. An error pop up saying "Cannot create a file when that file already exists".
    Just one detail: The liquify filter doen't pop up the error right away, the error occurs just after i press the "ok" button to accept the changes.
    I have already tryed to Reset the preferences, tryed to reinstall the PS, Update the PS, download (and install) the latests drivers to my pc.
    My Pc fit in all the requirements, have the openGL version: 3.0
    I also have Photoshop CS5 installed, in which the liquify filter works perfectly.
    Here i have two Print Screen, how it looks:
    The first image is just right before a click the "Adaptive Wide Angle"
    The second one is right after i clicked it
    If you could help me, i already thank you for wasting you time reading this!

    Resetting the Photoshop preferences does not reset the preferences for the plugins.
    There should be a Plugins folder. If the folder cannot be created it would cause the error you are seeing.
    Can you check the permissions on the ‘Adobe’ folder at: C:\Users\jworthin\AppData\Roaming\Adobe.
    Can you manually create a Plugins folder in that location or do you get an error?

  • File size problem between Acrobat 8 and 9

    When I print to a PDF from Acrobat 8 I get a file size that is slightly larger than the original PDF file size.  Example a 1.6 mb file becomes a 1.7mb file.  When I print the same file in Acrobat 9 with the same settings (to my Knowledge) (setting = High Quality Print) I get a file that 36.1mb.
    The reason we would print the file in the fist place is that we need to create a PDF that is ether slightly larger or slightly smaller (say 98%) of the original size.  Can anyone help us figure out why our upgraded version 9 would do this?  We also use 7 and between 7 and 8 there are no defenses but 9 makes the file ~21X the original file size.  Please see that attached JPEG for a screen shot of the file sizes.
    Thank you, -Dan

    Thank you for the quick response.  We are able to get some results through the Optimizer however they are not the same.  Also we would like to keep from adding an extra step into the process.  Especially a step that adds a lot of time to the process as the Optimizer does.  In versions 7 and 8 we did not have run the Optimizer (we also did not have to do this in version 5 back in the day).  Why would 9 have to add this step?  I am really looking for a way to keep the same workflow steps.  -Dan
