File Size Between Version 3 and 5

I'm evaluating Captivate version 5. When I import captivate version 3 projects into version 5 and then publish them, they turn out to be 2-3 times larger in size. I publish them as .exe's. As far as I can tell I have the settings matching between the two versions, for when I publish. Can anyone tell me if this is a known "feature", or possibly some setting that's new or different in version 5? I've tried lowering the quality of the puplished file, but I really don't want to live with the reduction in quality it's giving me.
Thanks for any help or info you can provide.
I'm evaluating version 5 because version 3 doesn't appear to play nicely with the current version of Adobe Audition, which I'm also evaluating. Having noise issues when recording my audio, so I've been trying to "edit with Audition" to take out the noise. This works well, but I end up having to edit and save the audio 3-4 times before it will actually save back into my captivate project. Haven't had these problems with version 5, but now my file size is ballooning up...

Im having the same problem....its very frustrating...

Difference in file size between EM Export and Export using cmd.....

Hi ,
I use the following command in a command prompt to export a schema....
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\database10g\BIN\exp.exe system/*****@local FILE=C:\FILES.DMP ROWS=Y OWNER=USER_DB LOG=C:\TEST.LOG
which produces a file around 900KB.
When i exported on the same database , the same dataschema , both the data and the db objects ... using the EM the file produced was around 4000KB.....
Why is this difference.....????
I noticed in the log file of the exported file using EM some additional info... such as :
'estimated USER_DB.TABLE_NAME 64KB'
Can this info justify the difference in file size between the two methods..????
Note: I use OraDb 10g v.2
thanks a lot
Simon

The export done from EM is from Data Pump export.
The manual export you did is original export.
Try do a manual data pump export using expdp and compare the size.

Is there a way to file share between an iMac and iPad?

I'm curious as to whether or not you can file share between an iPad and an iMac. The main reason would be in case my wife or I were working on something on the iMac downstairs, we could "pull it up" on the iPad upstairs without having to sync it with the cable....or perhaps I'm just lazy...

check out FileBrowser.
another option may be Dropbox.

What are the differences between version 9 and X of the Reader?

I have been running various releases of Version 9 of the Adobe Reader for a long time. I have noticed that when there is an update available for Version 9 and I click on the "more information" button on the update, it takes me to a web page where there is information on the latest levels of both Version 9 and Version X, but I cannot find any information on what the differences are between version 9 and X. I read the FAQ and found nothing on this, and I even searched this forum and was surprised that there were no topics on this question already.
Can someone tell me the differences between the 2 versions. I am running Windows 7; is that important as to which version of Reader I should use?

Both Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader X work on Windows 7 .
Hope this helps.

File Sharing between Windows PC and MacBook Pro using Internet Sharing

I have a MacBook Pro and a Dell Latitude D820 running Windows XP SP2 and I want to connect both using any of these two options. I do not have a wireless router and I use Sprint 3G data card to access internet.
1) I access the internet using a EVDO data card on my MAC and use Internet sharing to access the internet on my Dell laptop. How do I access the files on my PC from my MAC?
2) I can have two EVDO data cards to access the MAC and PC independently. How can I setup file sharing between Windows laptop and MAC?

Difference Between version 8 and cs3/4 ?

Hi I have dreamweaver 8 and I use it for all my tasks related to website development.
I just wanted to know if there is any significant difference between version 8 and cs3/4 ?
Suggestions appreciated.

I don't think any of those you have listed are major additions to my own personal workflow in my opinion David.
Nice add-ons but it's not like 'I really need this'.
I'd like a better computer each and every year but I can still do all I need with the one I have. Of course you never want to go back once you upgrade but its not as if you can't do what is needed with an older version.
Improved css rendering? I struggle to find an improvement apart from maybe overflow:hidden; I guess it may also be down to the way you write the css. I've never really struggled with css rendering from version MX onwards, others have.
Built in css layouts? I wouldn't touch those with a barge pole personally. They can remain in the domain of the inexperienced and when they come to alter them they are so complicated they won't have a clue where to start.
Spry widgets? Again overcomplicated and used mainly by inexperienced users.
Live view/live code? Personally have no use for it.
None of those you listed would effect my workflow. But as I said it's best to download a trial and take it for a spin.
DW in my opinion doesn't have much more in the way of development to offer apart from incorporating elements which are non-essential. Its a bit like the progress of all their software; they struggle with each new release to find anything wortwhile to include.

File size difference between version 3 and 4

I'd like to know how to publish a file at the smallest possible size with Captivate 4.
I have 1 file that is 9176KB published with Captivate 3. The same file published with Captivate 4 becomes 10300KB. I didn't add any functionality just publish it once saved in 4.
What is the same content ~1MB bigger with the new version? How do I make it smaller?
Thanks,

Thanks for the hint! It did make me revisit those files and now I see the reason for the small file sizes: The Apple Finder does note update the file size view once a file was added to a folder. Here's what I did:
Opened a folder full of .NEFs in detail view in Finder.
Converted them using DNG Converter
Looked at the sizes of the files as they were shown in the Finder window allready open.
Unfortunately, those file sizes are not correct. If I open a new Finder window of the same folder, file sizes are correctly reported as between 3.5 and 5 MB.

Difference in generated PDF file size between distiller 6.0 and 10.0

Hi,
we are currently using Distiller server 6.0.1 on Windows server 2003 to convert PS to PDF, we want to upgrade our operating system to Windows server 2008 R2 but distiller server is not supported on this,
so we are evaluating Acrobat distiller 10 which comes along with Acrobat pro x but we noticed some slight difference in the generated PDF file size, for the same PS the distiller server 6.0 generated PDF
file size of 55 KB whereas Acrobat distiller 10 generated PDF file is 53 KB. The output looks same but wondering whether is it safe to continue further with the file size difference, it would be good
if you could provide some insight into why the file sizes are different between these two versions.
Thanks,
Anand

Maximum file size in creative cloud and Lightroom mobile?

I Am interested in purchasing the special offer for the photoshop photography program where I can move and edit photos between a desktop version of LR, the cloud and mobile LR. I use large Raw format files of about 25 MB. I saw that photoshop CC app can only handle up to 12 MB files, and was wondering if there is a maximum size limit for mobile Lightroom?

There is not really a limitation. The Lightroom Mobile technology lets you view and work with large files by creating compact proxy images on the tablet. Settings will be synced between the proxy and original raw-file on your desktop computer. Hope that answers your question. -Guido

How do I find out the file size of my photos, and change them to the size

This will sound inane, but I cannot figure out where to find the file size of my photos in iPhoto. I need a jpeg of a certain file size and image size for my blog background, but can't figure out how to even start.

If the limited quality options do not get you the file size you need export the full size image files to a folder on your Desktop and use Resize! to batch resize the image dimensions and file size (jpeg compression level) to what you need.
Click to view full size
With Resize! you can fine tune the pixel dimensions and file size.

File sharing between Mac Mini and iMac "breaks" after reboot of either device, and won't restore. Why? Running Maverick 10.9.1 on both. File sharing is setup on both. Help.

I'm a new user - recent convert from longtime Windows to Apple. Thought having desktops and computing aligned with phones and tablets would help. Not so far.
I have a MacMini running Mavericks 10.9.1, and an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.1. File Sharing is set up on both. If either device is rebooted for any reason, file sharing from the Mac Mini to the iMac "breaks" and will not easily restart. Various things eventually brings the connection back - usually having to do with checking and unchecking File Sharing, the AFP button, and/or the SMB button on the iMac - but never the same procedure twice in a row. File Sharing from the iMac to the Mac Mini is never disrupted - always comes back up without a problem. Screen Sharing also works between both without fail, and comes up after reboot of either. No problem there. Only difficulty is from Mac Mini to the iMac.
Why? Any ideas?

Should also clarify - usually takes multiple hours of checking/unchecking file sharing settings in order to restore the share between Mac Mini and iMac. NEVER happens automatically.
This is disruptive because I've got the Mac Mini pointing to several file locations on the iMac for various things - photos, music, etc. - and they all hang up unless the share is restored. Real bummer.

The amount of memory used for data is a lot larger than the saved file size why is this and can I get the memory usage down without splitting up the file?

I end up having to take a lot of high sample rate data for relativily long periods of time. When I save the data it is usually over 100 MB. When I load the data for post-processing though the amount of memory used is excessively higher than the file size. This causes my computer to crash because 1.5 GB is not enough. Is there a way to stop this from happening withoput splitting up the file into smaller files.

LabVIEW can efficiently handle large files, far beyond 100Mb, provided that care is taken in the coding of the loading/processing routines. Here are several suggestions:
1) Check out the resources National Instruments has put together (NI Developer Zone > Development Library > Measurement and Automation Software > LabVIEW > Development System > Optimizing Applications > Managing Memory), specifically the article entitled "Managing Large Data Sets in LabVIEW".
2) Load and process the data in chunks if possible.
3) Avoid sending the data to front panel indicators, using local/global variables for data storage, or changing data types unless absolutely necessary.
4) If using LabVIEW 7.1, use the "show buffer" tool to determine when LabVIEW is creating extra
copies of data in memory.

File Exchange between Illustrator CS5 and Freehand 10?

Hello everyone,
I'm working with Illustrator CS5 on MacOS X Version 10.6.4.
I'd like to exchange Files with a colleague, who uses Freehand 10 on Mac OS X Version 10.4.11.
Is that possible? In both directions? Will I have to convert the files to older Versions?
I've already found out that I can open Fh 7 Files in Illustrator CS5.
I'd be glad to get an answer soon.
Birgit

You can even open FreeHand10 files in Illustrator. The other way round it's difficult. FreeHand could open AI7-files, only: you cannot save them. So you would have to save down to AI3 (not: CS3). You'll loose about anything apart from simple paths, strokes and fills that way, let alone transparency. Clearly this workflow is not advisable at all.
Either one of you uses a different software or you simply don't exchange files back and forth.
