File size in LR after cropping?

When in the Develop module, if I do a little crop, is there a way to see my file size in either megs or megapixels? This is assuming I am going to export the RAW file to Photoshop.
I changed on of my Info 2 fields to show Megapixels, but it stays at 12.2 MP regardless of of the crop.
Thanks,
M. Jackson

That is because it is still a 12.2 MP file. Remember that Lightroom does not apply any changes to the image data. All changes are simply stored as metadata changes in the catalog. Controlling the size of the image is a function of the printing module or the exporting process.

In CS6, why the file size remains same after croping? And how do I reduce the size after each cropin

In CS6, why the file size remains same after croping? And how do I reduce the size after each croping? Thx

Select the Crop Tool and check the box [ ] Delete Cropped Pixels and you should see a reduction in file size. With the box unchecked, the data is still maintained in the document, you just can't see it.

How to achieve smaller file size in iMovie after cutting or cropping

iMovie saves unused material, so that even if I remove (crop or cut) unwanted footage, I am left with the same large file size for the project.
The same seems to be true if I split a clip, and delete the unwanted portion and empty the trash.
I have saved selected portions to Quicktime and then set up another iMovie project using the smaller trimmed file. Is there a better way to do this - entirely within the iMovie environment?
Thanks,

You should export as .dv (not .mov) and import it back.
Or export to tape and import it back.
Or downgrade to iMovie 4 and make very good backups (emptying the trash while trimming the clips sometimes corrupts the project in iMovie 1-4!!).

SAP Data File size considerably reduced after Unicode Conversion

Hello Experts
I have just performed a CUUC (Upgrade along with unicode conversion) from R/3 4.7 to ECC 6.0 EHP5. The data size that i earlier had was close to 463 GB (MSSQL MDF, LDF Files), after the data export to be converted to unicode the size was 45 GB (10% of actual data size, i feel this is normal after heterogeneous system copy), but after the import again the DATA file size is only 247 GB, is this normal ? or have i lost some data ? For ex, I tried checking tables like MSEG and the number of entries have reduced from 15,678,790 to 15,290,545.
Could you kindly let me know if there is a way to check from Basis perspective if i have not lost any data ? I have followed all the procedures as per SAP Standards.
Waiting for your quick reply.
Best Regards
Pritish

Hi Nicholas
Data is compressed during the new R3load procedure is understood, but why number of table entries have reduced is something which is still a question to me (in some cases increased as well) ? For example
                             Source          Target
STPO                  415,725          412,150
STKO                 126,710          126,141
PLAF                 74,671                   78,336
MDKP                 193,487          192,747
MDPB                 55,329                   63,557
Any suggestions or ideas ?

How can I reduce the file size rendered by After Effects?

When I render a relatively simple 5 second project in After Effects, the file size of the resultant .avi is 64MB. If I change the properties to reduce the file size, the degradation makes the file unusable. What am I doing wrong?

Is AE's encoder really that inefficient?
The thing is, AVI doesn't mean much.
It's pretty much an empty container box, which doesn't imply a quality level.
So, AME could default to something completely different as a starting point to produce an AVI file.
AE defaults to uncompressed video when you pick AVI as a format. So, obviously this produces huge file sizes. There could be similar quality thresholds with smaller sizes if you pick other AVIcodecs, but that's a different subject. And in any case, when you're rendering a production quality master, file size is usually not your main concern. You typically use this high quality video file as a source for compressed flavors for distribution. So, pristine video files with huge sizes are a good thing - people then wonder why trailers at apple.com, for instance look so good. And the thing is, the most compressed formats benefit enormously from having an uncompressed file as a source.
Regarding encoding efficiency, yes, AE is less efficient than dedicated encoding solutions. Above all, because it doesn't support 2 pass encoding. Note that for some formats, 2 pass makes a night and day difference, while for others, nothing as drastic as most users seem to believe.
All of this is a moot point for AVI, because the default AVI codecs don't offer these encoding options, which are more the realm of distribution formats like FLV, MPEG-4/H264 or WMV.
There are distribution codecs which use AVI as a container out there, but those are a different case.

How do I decrease the file size of my After Effects video without losing the quality?

I made a video that was 7 minutes and 11 seconds long for my brothers wedding. The quality is really good but the file size is 1.52 GB and I would rather have that be in the megabytes so that I can send it to family members. It does not have to be so low that I can send it in an email but just not so big to where I can't burn it to a disc or place on a flash drive. I realize that I have not provided much information but I don't know what you will need to help me with this problem. If you would please tell me what information you need below then I will happily provide it for you.

File size balloons up after annotation

Hi. I've been creating OCR pdfs of scanned books and the resulting files are very reasonable 2-4 mb. However, as soon as I add an annotation such as highlighting, the file balloons up by 10X, 20-40mb. Can someone help me understand why this happens and what I can do about it. I've searched google and this forum but can't seem to find an answer.
Thanks!

Thanks, I'm an avid Acrobat user, there is no problem with file size no matter how I save. But both Adobe Acrobat and Reader are unusably slow when scrolling through entire books. So I use Preview or other highlighting programs. However, as soon as I have to save the pdf with any edit the file size jumps 10 fold.
I need a workaround so MacOSX pdf readers don't increase the size.
Or, a way to get Adobe Acrobat/Reader to scroll properly in MacOSX.
Thanks!

File size increases dramatically after digital signature with Acrobat X

I signed a PDF file using Acrobat X.
File size of unsigned document: 200 k
File size of signed document: 3200 k (more than ten times bigger)
Any idea?
BR
Harald

Finally I found the solution.
The file size increase is a result of the embedded information used for long-term signature validation.
If you do not need this feature, you can turn it off:
Preferences > Security > Advanced Preferences > Creation tab
disable "Include Signature’s Revocation"

Why is the file size increasing when cropping in Photoshop CC?

While cropping a picture the file size is increasing dramatically.
An image 7360 X 4912 px (Image size : 103,4M) after cropping to 60 X 40 cm 300 px, goes up to an image of 18000 X 12000 px (Image size : 618,0 M). And the computer is unable to cope with such a file...
It wasn't like that when I first started to use the program.
I crop the same image using CS5 and the result is an image of 7087 X 4724 px (Image size : 95,8 M) which is normal...
Will aprreciate help...

Thanks for replying. First I didn't have this problem in the beginning. I do the same in CS5 and I can do it with no problem.

After editing a photo in Iphoto the picture loses it's file size

After editing a photo in Iphoto 09 version 8.1.2 the file size of the photo reads at 0 KB of memory, resulting in a corrupt photo that I can still see but I am unable to import it to Facebook or other sharing sources. I have tried a few methods to recover the problem by repairing iphoto by holding alt & command during startup and have also manually imported the same photo again from my camera to try it out again. The photos import on the iphoto app with a file size but shortly after editing some of the photos ( Enhancing and Boosting the colour ) they loose their file size. This problem is happening to numerous of my edited photos and I would love to be able to share them to the world!
Thank you for your help

File Size Discrepancy Between Photoshop & the Finder

I'm trying to be as brief as I can, so here goes. The specific application (PS) is irrelevant, I think. This is about why an app shows one file size & the Finder shows a different file size. In this case, it's a huge difference, due to the file being an image.
I imported into PS CS, from a CD, an original image, which the Finder shows as 269.4 MB. The file format is TIFF, and the bit-depth is 16, not 8. The Finder shows it as a "TIFF Document." Now. I did a Save As and edited that as a master image file. So, I have two files: the original and the master.
I substantially cropped (deleted) pixels in the master file. So, at the same 16-bit depth, the master file should be smaller in size than the original. Right? However, the Finder shows the file to be 433.6 MB in size! Photoshop shows the file to be a more realistic 185.8 MB in size. Why is the Finder showing such a huge file size? Why is the Finder storing 247.8 MB more than I need? The Finder shows this file as an "Adobe Photoshop TIFF file," so there has been a change in format. The file is flattened; no layers, etc., are involved.
One clue could be that the Finder is storing the larger file size to accommodate Photoshop. If one multiplies 185.8 MB by 3, the result is close to the 433.6 MB figure. The 3 stands for the three color channels (red, green, blue) of each pixel (data element) in the image.
The original image, however, is stored correctly by the Finder. Photoshop and the Finder agree on the 269.4 MB file size. If the above scenario were true, the Finder would be storing the original file at three times the size as shown in Photoshop. In other words, there would be consistency in what the Finder is doing.
I suppose I could just ignore the discrepancy, but I have hundreds of images to process, and I don't want to have to go into PS every time to get a true reading of file sizes. The Finder should be accurate in doing that.
I may be in the wrong forum re: Photoshop, but here I think I can find some expertise re: the Finder, since the Finder's storing procedures are in question, to my mind. It's definitely an app/OS interface problem, as I see it. Simply, I edit a file downward in data, save it, yet the Finder saves it at a larger size.

...do you think a lot of cloning & healing brush might have added to the file size, even though I cropped the image?
Yes, depending on your History settings. The more you work on an image, the more history it accumulates. The more different states and sanpshots you save in the History palette, the bigger the file gets as you work on it, because you're storing (within the file) complete information about the file's state before and after every individual change you make to it. What I don't recall is whether that all gets saved to the file in a Save As, or whether the history is flushed each time the file is Saved.
I should warn you that I am by NO stretch of the imagination a PS expert. I was still using PS 5.0.2 until last February, when I upgraded to CS2 (knowing it will be years before I have enough hardware horsepower to run CS3). I'm a rank beginner with CS2, and if someone else wants to jump in here and point out that I'm all wrong, it will be no surprise to me. And because I never used CS, I don't know whether what I'm describing in CS2 is even relevant here.

Save As PDF file size issues

I am currently using Word 2008 to produce a club newsletter for email distribution. The Word (.docx) file can be up to 2.4MB in size. When I use Print > Save to PDF the resulting file can be as large as 12MB! I tried using the CUPS-PDF virtual printer option and got a file 26MB is size!!
A friend used his Windoze machine to print to PDF and got the file size I was after at just over 1MB. I also tried the Adobe Online "convert to PDF service" and got file sizes lower than 1MB.
What is going on with the Mac OSX conversion? How can I get smaller PDF's without having to shell out for Adobe Acrobat Pro?

Peter Ongley wrote:

This may not help or may degrade any images in your document, but try this: Open the PDF file in the Preview application. Invoke File -> Save As, then set "Quartz Filter" to "Reduce File Size", give the file a different name, and save the file.

Compressing photo size in iphoto - want file size small but pic big? how?

Hello
I hope this is the right section for this post.
I am building a website and I want photos on it, I am building it in iWeb.
in iPhoto is there any way of making my photos a smaller file size?
I have cropped them a bit, but some are still about 400kb.
I want my site to load quickly.
I want a gallery page with thumbnails to click on to enlarge them, but on my home page I want 1 big picture. What is compression and can i do it in iPhoto? Can I still have a picture the same size (to look at) but the file size is smaller. I have heard photos should be about 30-70kb and mine are 400kb jpegs!?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.8) using iphoto and iweb, not hosting on .mac

Betsy
I believe that iWeb optimises the pics when you publish the site, but you could confirm that on the iWeb forum.
If you want to reduce the size of pics using iPhoto, you do that on export: Select the pics you want and go File -> Export. Use the dialogue to specify the size of the pics you require and export them to a folder on the desktop.

Compressing file size from within a portfolio?

I've got 16 files within a PDF portfolio ranging from 80MB to 227Mb and I'm trying to compress them, the portfolio size is 1.41GB. When I view the file size in Bridge as I compress each file I don't see any change in the individual file sizes nor in the Portfolio size. Are the original files being compressed or are they stored seperately within the portfolio file? And any idea why the portfolio size nor the original file sizes are changing after PDF optimization?

Thanks, Leo.
To my mind, this looks about right : http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/pdfgenerator/
Do you know whether this will be suitable for integration into .net code?
Can it cover our needs (Concatenation, Compression, Bookmark-Editing)?
