How can I make a file a more manageable size?

I'm looking to downsize a very hefty file. It currently has a lot of information and is clumsy to deal with when attaching to email, opening it up, printing, etc. Is there a straightforward way to save a version of this document with ONLY the information it needs to print a high quality image? It doesn't need to be edited after downsizing, it just needs to look virtually the same after printing (8.5x11) as it would with all the file info intact. Ideally, the resolution would allow for zooming in (maybe 300-400%? That's totally arbitrary though...) on-screen without super visible pixelation. Essentially, I think I'm looking for a way to create a high-quality "picture" of this illustrator document without significantly altering its appearance in print (priority) or on-screen. The requested format is PDF, but I think that's flexible if an alternative is better. I don't have a target file size, just hoping to find a mechanism that allows me to play with it until I find the minimum MB for maximum print quality.
Don't know if it's useful, but part of the reason it's so large is that I had to consolidate it into one file, so I had to embed raster images and a couple fonts (although I later just made outlines) that were links while I was actively working on it.
Thanks in advance for any insight!

Thank you! That was a great recommendation. "Smallest File Size" seems to bring the raster images all the way down to 150 dpi, which is a little low for my purposes, but I'll continue to play around with the other options in that dropdown menu.
Thanks again for your time.

That's all good and fine, but what have you tried codewise? Let's see what you have so far and we can go from there.
The easy answer is "an assignment" and a desire to pass the course without actually needing to read and comprehend information.

Clips from JVC Everio camcorders have always had this problem with Premiere Elements (all versions). You need to select Interpret Footage.
See this FAQ from PE version 2, step 3. Like I said it has been this way with all versions:

You might be able to use this tool to change the header of your MOD files so they are seen as 16:9: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/DVDPatcher
Or use this program (SDCopy) to download the video's from the cam, it will allow you to copy straight from the cam to your PC and auto renames and corrects the aspect ratio.

How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please?

How can I make address labels, preferably matching Avery sizes, in Pages please? Please don't tell me there is no labels facility!!

If you have your addresses set up in Address Book, the logical place for them, that is also the logical place to print them from.
Pages will only use one data set per page, although there are ways around this. But then that wasn't your question.

How can I make my flash Webpage displayed same size on any screen resolution?

Hi,
How can I make my flash Webpage displayed same size on any screen resolution of my computer? Whether it is 1024 X 768 or 1280 X 960 screen resolution, the size of Webpage (Flash Webpage) should always be same so that user don't need to use horizantal scroll bar to view all the content.
And secondly, how can I scroll my webpage vertical on moving with my mouse like in the following link: The below link also shows that it's webpage size is always same on any screen resolution.

How can i make a file a .jar again?

You have not said what your target size is nor how many photos you have or how large on screen. Nor what version of Pages you are using. Nor whether it is just for looking at on screen or you require a good print.
Reducing file size is a combination of things that can be done with no loss of quality:
1. Crop and reduce resolution of images in a 3rd party application, Preview will do.
and those that will reduce quality
2. Menu > File > Reduce File Size
3. Menu > Share > Export > PDF > Good (Good is not very good unfortunately)
Use vector (drawing) pdfs in place of bitmap (photo) images can save considerable size. Preparing photos in other programs also allows you to control the image quality of jpegs and tricks like slightly blurring them prior to saving.
Pages is not very efficient in this regard and there are limits to what you can do. Lots of images, covering a lot of the page does add up to a bigger file whatever you do.

How Can We make video files of images in Flex

Hi
Can Any body tell me how can i make a video file of images in flex.Please tell me wether its possible in Flex. to combine images to make a video file.
Regards
Vineet osho

Ok,
Let me take this example.
Supposing A vendor with 3 AP open items, B vendor with 2 AP open items.
When making a payment proposal, SAP shows only 2 lines, namely, collected by vendor code.
Looking at DME file, however, it shows 5 lines which means all individual open items.
What we want to make is 2 lines in DME file, which means grouping invoices by vendor in a DME file.
Hope it makse sense.

How can I make my Apple TV more reliable? It takes a day to download a HD movie on a T1 to play later, but when I try to play the movies, Apple TV can't, and says try again later. Doesn't the day download time put the HD movie on the Apple TV device?

How can I make my Apple TV work? I downloaded two movies, to play later, on April 4, 2014. I tried to watch them this evening only to get a message they are not available and to try later. How long can it take Apple to download the movies? I encourage anyone thinking about buying an Apple TV to get a different media player that is reliable. Apple TV is not worth the money, nor the time it takes to download movies, nor the effort trying to get your money back when Apple TV fails,and it failsl oftern.. Apple never seems to have a problem charging for the movies, but it frequently has a provlem delivering what people pay for.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router.
Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

How can I make .PDF files not display inline in an Outgoing mail?

I want Mail to NOT display PDF files in outgoing messages. It will keep the icon placeholder if it's more than two pages, but not for one page PDFs. How can I stop this? It makes formatting kind of difficult.

How can I make Keynote files read-only (eg: to share with students)?

I would like to share some keynote files with students, and I would like to set them up as read-only, so that the students can tap the screen, read my presentation, but not alter it. I've tried to set the files up as read-only on my iMac desktop, but when I load the file onto my iPad, it's still editable.
Any ideas re: how to make Keynote files read-only?
I've tried to export the files as PDF and load them into iBook, but some of Keynote's basic "build" functions won't work this way. Specifically, I have files set up with questions and answers (ie - a question appears, and you have to tap the screen to see the answer, but this "build" function seems to disappear when I get it to show up in iBook).
Any ideas how to make Keynote files read-only? I am happy to use another program, but I want the students to tap the screen in order to see the answer to a question.
Thanks!

as long as $PATH is set, you shouldn't need to reconnect them (i think). if you send the list of apps through | awk -F '/' '{print $NF}' | that'll strip the path
/edit: added the "(i think)" part

How can I search for files with more than one keyword?

I´ve created some keywords, and some files in my folder are tagged with two, three or more keywords.
Is there a way to search for files using more than one keyword on the search field?

Use the Find command (menu Edit) and in criteria at the right side is a plus sign to add another criteria and set it to your custom wishes.
make a choice in results and you should be OK

How can I make the new update more colorful my mother can't read the white pages with tiny lines we hate it

How can get the color back on my iPad 2 retina my mother can not read the new white pages with tiny line or the text messages

You can go into the settings and make the fonts bigger, also in the accessibility, make the contrast better and fonts bolder.
There is also the 'invert colors' but it's not the best thing since it inverts everything.
unfortunately this doesn't seem to be a good update for those with visual issues.

You can let Apple know. They won't answer but at least you can be added to the talley of those that have issues.

How can I sort all files and folders by size?

Due to lack of space I need to find the biggest files and folders on my Mac OSX Mountain Lion, but "Size" is not in the Find options.
And I don't know the wildcard to sort all files and folders by size in Easyfind.

There are applications out there which are designed to show you files and the space they use. Some of these applications and some strategies for making more room on your disk are given below.
