Export a PDF or JPG--Pros and Cons ??

I've been having trouble with Keynote crashing constantly and losing work. (often crashes on save) Due to this, I've got in the habit of exporting to PDF so that I at least have a record of what I have to recreate.
I still don't have a fix for the crashes (although the iWork Team is looking at it), so I may have to create a new Keynote document that is creating using exported slides from Keynotes that won't save.
All of my sides have photos on them (2-5) and some also have text. The resulting document will end up being exported as a QT movie to be placed into iMovie and then into iDVD.
At this point, the slides are in PDF form. If I can get back into the original documents that were crashing, would I need to export as JPEG instead of PDF so that I can pull them back into a new document?
I'm sure that I can take my current PDF document and export that as JPEG to pull back into Keynote, but I'm not sure of what quality loss I may experience. What's the quality difference between exporting as PDF (high-quality) and exporting as JPEG?
Hope this makes sense. It's a horrible way of getting to a final Keynote Presentation, but it's my only option with all of the crashes that I've experienced.

Those crashes sound very poor. You've asked a general question about quality and generally if you jpeg or tiff is used at actual pixel size and compression is limited to lossless you will have no discernible difference in image quality in Keynote. Printing will suffer because while screen resolution is 72dpi printers typicall print at 300dpi and higher. Also if you enlarge your images on the slide they will not compensate the way vector artwork and postscript text (PDF) will.
Having said that PDF files will show in Keynote.

Acrobat X Pro - Export multiple PDFs to JPG

In Acrobat 9 Pro I am able to export multiple pdfs to jpg using file--->export multiple.... In Acrobat X I can't seem to find this funtionality. Any ideas?
Thanks.

I tried this script and it did work but I needed to export to PNG rather than JPG. I could not see a way to do that without actual scripting, which I don't know how to do. So I opened the script linked here in Textpad and just changed "jpg" to "png" and it worked - happy day for me!

Hi Rajendra,
The NetWeaver Installation Master Guide offers some good scenarios on the pros and cons:
https://websmp201.sapag.de/~sapidb/011000358700005412792005E.pdf
In a nutshell:
ABAP+JAVA
Pros
- Decrease # of servers required to administer the portal
- Less costly
Cons
- Upgrades could be dependent on ABAP and Java release level
- Additional load on the server due to ABAP stack
- Limited scalability
JAVA and ABAP on separate server
Pros
- Improved performance
- Allows each system to be single-use purpose therefore downtime does not affect other components
- More scalable
Cons
- Adds complexity to landscape
- Additional costs

Pros and cons of using disksets for SUNW.HAStoragePlus

Hi,
untill now we were usign disksets for SUNW.HAStoragePlus for installing HA Oracle on both Sun Cluster 3.1 and 3.2.
On the article ( http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features/articles/cluster3.1_oracle10g.pdf ) with the title "Installing and Configuring Sun Cluster 3.1 Software for Oracle Database 10g HA" the author prefers using just the disk devices for SUNW.HAStoragePlus.
What are the pros and cons of using disksets for disks you'll use for SUNW.HAStoragePlus?
I think that if you do not need to add more than one disk to a diskset there's no need to to use disksets. So, you can eliminate a problematic layer such as SDS. What do you thnik and which option do you prefer?
Murat BALKAS

some more details :
On " Chapter 4 . Configuring SolarisVolume Manager Software" of "Sun Cluster Data Service 16 for Oracle Guide for Solaris OS"
(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2980?l=en&q=Sun+CLuster+3.2 ) SDS disksets we use for HA-Oracle installations is explained in detail.
     Our procedure to create diskset to locate Oracle files is attached.
     After reading the article, I realized that using disksets is not a
must for filesystems to be mounted as SUNW.HAStoragePlus. If yes, I
would prefer using the disk devices directly instead of putting them
on disksets so that I can eliminate one for layer which is the problematic SDS layer.
     Our disk devices ( below /dev/did/rdsk/d9 and /dev/did/rdsk/d12 ) are
disk partitions from a RAID-5 logical drive on the storage.

Print as image - pros and cons

Hello,
I would like to know what are pros and cons of setting print as image in Reader?
Recently I came up to problem which prevented PDF file to being printed on HP OfficeJet 8000 A811. It was about 40 pages PDF and one of the pages couldn't be printed.
After some investigation I realized it is because of some additional font that was used on this page.
I am mainly interested in cons. Is print job bigger (printing slower)? Is cartridge consuption greater? ...
Thank you for all answer.

It may be slower yes but you're still printing the same amount of material so you shouldn't use any more ink/toner. Other than it being slower, I'm not aware of any cons.
I would prefer of course to have a properly formulated pdf that doesn't require me to use print as image.

Pros and cons Demand Planning in APO or ECC

Hello,
is there a paper/pdf out there describing the pros and cons of DP in APO and ECC. We are planning to implement demand planning and are in an evaluation face whether to go with an APO solution or not. The financial aspect is not an issue. We already have the licensing in place for APO and ECC.
Which solution provides better flexibility and usability? Have any of you guys got experience with implementing demand planning in a non-manufacturing orgnisation. That is we are looking for a tool to forecast/plan external and internal procurement.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Hi ,
Definitely APO DP have many advantage over ECC.
=> More Flexibility than ECC demand management
=> Complex statistical tool can be used for forecasting
=> Complex macros can be build as per the business need
=> Easy visilbility & maintenance of the data
=> Advance Demand planning functionalities like Promotional planning, LCM, Management decisions, etc can be incorporated easily.
Also refer the details provided in the below thread for more details:

HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
What are the pros and cons of
1) choosing to use the SAME
Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
P.S.
I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

What are the Pros and Cons while joining tables at DF and Universe level

Hi Experts,
I am new to Data federator designer. I need help on the below.
Could you please let me know the Pros and Cons while joining the source tables in data federator
And While joining the DF target tables in universe designer.
Regards,
Gana

Hi,
1. I have created target tables based on source tables with one to one mapping and then join all target tables in universe.
Ex: Source tables: Infocube text tables, fact tables and 3rd party data base table
Target tables:Target tables are same as source tables
--- Yes this is the way to create target Tables and join them in the universe.These target Tables gives you the flexibility like in future your requirement is to add one more object based on some calculation which is not possible in the universe so that time you can create one more column in the target table and do the calculation. at the same time if you are using source table you can not do anything.
2. Created single target table with all objects of source tables and merged all sources tables data.
Ex: Source tables: Infocube text tables, fact tables and 3rd party data base table
Target table: Single table.
--- This is bit complex structure to merge all tables data in the one target table.in this situation you have to put more efforts and it is more complex.basically this type of target table is useful when you are merging data by multiple source into single or creating one target table based on the union of tables by adding two mapping rules or more and you can not join tables in universe.
Better approach is first 1. create target tables based on the source tables and join them in the universe.
Thanks,
Amit

Pros and Cons not determining / having a Delivery Plant in Sales Order?

Hi Mates
Here I have come-up with one more (weired?) requirement from my client.
We have two plants manufacturing same product and supplying to all customers (some time in same sales order with two different line items).
At the timeof creating a sales order, marketing does't know from which plant the material will move and hence they don't want to fill the Delivering Plant field (VBRP-BUKRS at Shipping tab) for each Item.
They are insisting me to map it as above though I had explained about various pros and cons for not determining a mandatory delivery plant
in sales order like the requirements and shipping stuff.
Yet, yet they want this.
Has anyone come across this kind of requirement before? What best you had done for that?
Can I ask you what are the Pros and cons on not having a Delivery Plant at Sales Order level?
what if I could determine it Delivery level?
Any comments, suggestions, replies and advices are taken humbly.
Cheers
Ajay Kumar Veeranki

Dear Mahulenka
Thanks a lot for the reply. It do have helped me.
Yest it is VBAP-WERKS (typo error ).
Infact I had given the same solution for the issue.
Interstingly, they are insisting on a better solution fit for their requirement. Anyway shall 'highlight' the points again to them try to get it solved
Just wondering has anyone faced the same situation before.
Thanks again for the reply and good luck
Best Regards

What are the Pros and Cons of Using Batch Numbers over Serialization

Dear SAP Gurus:
Will someone please give me the benefits of using Batch Management over serial numbers in this case scenerio, or vice versa:
Client wants to trace all the components of an assembly in a BOM. Even the Raw material. The client sends the material out today and has the vendor assign serial numbers to the individual pieces, the client gives the range of serial numbers to use. We are looking at using batch numbers to accomplish this and issue one material and batch number to a production order. Then use MB56 batch where used functionality to view history. I am wanting to understand the benefits of this. Please advise and points will be awarded as always.
Also, in this scenerio, can you issue multiple material/batch numbers to one vendor op that has its own production order?

Yes it is a subcontract.
Example: This is the solution but need the pros and cons of doing this scenerio
Sheet of metal sent to vendor to make lets say 1800 peices of material number nas5703-01. All 1800 pieces come back and issued to a production work order using one bacth number for one material item so that batch number can be traced in history in MB56 and a fit up report.

What are the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard?

My understanding is that Active Data Guard is an additional database option for Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise Edition. I need to know the pros and cons using Active Data Guard vs Data Guard in order to decide whether to get pay extra for the Active Data Guard.
Thanks for any help.

Hemant K Chitale wrote:
Before jumping in to Active Data Guard, one needs to evaluate :
a. Is there really a need to run queries on the Standby ? The Standby could / should be at a remote site so queries are "across the network". Depending on the nature of the queries and the volume of output, the "performance" of the queries may not seem to be the same.
b. If the database is not in Maximum Protection mode, the data "seen" at the standby may not be in "real-time" synch
c. Not all applications are truely read-only when querying. Some applications use "jobs" that write to tables when querying. Such would not work with Active DataGuard. (example : EBusiness Suite). There are very complicated ways of handling this -- and one needs to consider if the complications can be introduced and supported.
Over the network accessing standby read only is really not an good idea, I think no one will compare performance with primary and standby,
But some of them they want to validate data which are very critical, as it is matching with primary or not, Its an added advantage with ACTIVE DATAGUARD
Prior to that until unless stop MRP, open database and then we need to validate, So there is an interruption of recovery, I can say its also an advantage where there is no interruption of recovery.

Same SID for QA & Prd systems - pros and cons?

We have the foll systems:
1. Enterprise Portal 7.0
2. NWDI 7.0
3. NW 7.0 (with XECO - Ecommerce)
4. TREX 7.1
5. Content Server 6.40
6. ECC 6.0
Currently the QA and Prd systems have the same SID and system/instance no, although they are on different hosts.
We would like to know what are the long term pros and cons for keeping the QA and Prd SIDs the same for all systems.
We are already making a list, so thought we might as well get more inputs from the community too.
We already have this arrangement for the past 3 months and have not faced any major issues.
A couple of cons though:
1. Cannot use solman as it cannot distinguish between the diff servers with same SID
2. ABAP transports from QA to Prd have to be manually done (cannot use STMS)
Thanks
Prasad

Hi Manoj,
Changing the SID of java systems is a very tedious procedure. Hom sys copy is just a part of the SID change...there are a whole lot of configs to be done after that...the task is eq to a new setup of systems
For once, the efforts put in are huge..you can see there are 5 systems..besides, it will involve coordination from all teams - basis, development, functional, project management.
Here are a few advantages that we know of:
1. No efforts reqd to change back to original SID
2. During disaster recovery, we just have to restore the production database on QA and change the hostname, whereas its not so in case of having diff SIDs
3. For end-users this will be transparent because they will be using the hostname in the URL which is anyways different
We have the same SIDs for the past 3 months and have not seen major issues, but we also would like to know from the long term perspective if there are any risks that we have not foreseen...hence we seek help from the community.
Hope its clear now
Thanks for your response
Prasad

My PROs And CONs Opinion of This New Forum

Hello,
Since I've only been a member for a short time; my exposure has been limited; however, my opinions follow:
PROs
This forum has excellent support from "volunteer moderators" and Lenovo Staff. They are literally "all over the place" trying to assist in any way they can.
I like the forum layout; in that, it is categorized by "machine types" rather than desktop, laptop, hardware, software, audio, etc.
CONs
Some of the threads have grown to such an enormous size (I saw one with 517 replies) they have become almost useless. These enormous threads signal one of two things in my opinion. First, either the problem, presented by the original poster, has existed for quite some time without resolution and many keep reporting the same problem or the thread has just become a "me too" dumping ground. In any event, I would recommend that this forum's support group get together and evaluate the pros and cons of keeping super-large threads open for continued response by members of the community.
BTW, I'm marking this thread as an accepted solution because it is my opinion.
Best regards,
pagroundhog
