How do I reduce a Pages file size so I can create a pdf for e-mailing?

I recently upgraded from Tiger to OS X Leopard. In Tiger, I was able to reduce file size and create a 700 to 800kb file by going to print/color sync/quartz filter/reduce file size/save as pdf. But in Leopard those options can't be accessed from my pages print menu. Any suggestions? Thanks TH

Hi t.h.leeds,
Welcome to Pages discussions.
Another way to reduce the PDF files size is: Print > PDF, Compress PDF. As I create a PDF for e-mailing that's what I do, works well. 99.99% of folks don't print PDF's, they either file in a folder or delete. Viewing on their monitor that Compress PDF appears as it should.
A side note; by using this discussions Search feature in the box that reads "Search Discussions more Options" you could have found the answer to your question. Doing that would be faster than awaiting for an enduser as yourself to respond.
These Discussions are user helping user, not Apple employees answering the question. Questions will be answered when a user such as yourself finds time, desires to, knows the answer along with the time to respond.
Again, welcome to Pages Discussions, have fun here.

    Hi Sir,
    Thanks for your reply.
    But in that case user need to download 2 applications right. I need user to download my parent application created using Flash and that package contain one more ipa created using Xcode, so from my parent app only user should able to open my 2nd app. Is there any way to do that?
    Ps:  I am not talking about in-app but 2 individual apps inside one package.

    How to Reduce AI Vector file size: An Adobe illustrator Tutorial
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5m3TKrXE3g
    My AI file size was not going under 1 MB even by deleting extras so what I did is I opened a raster small image of 100 kb with Adobe Illustrator. then deleted the image and saved the file as AI. Then I Copied the whole vector content of original AI file that was bigger then 1 MB with ctrl+c command and pasted it in the new file created with raster image. and saved it. Wow the new file size is only 137 kb now.
    Thanks

  • Reduce pages file size while maintain picture resolution

    How do you have a small pages file size - <10mb - and still have a high resolution of my pictures in the doc

    The two are rather mutually exclusive.
    Quality, Number , Size - pick 2.
    You have not told us how many images, how large in dimensions and whether you are going to commercial print or convert it to pdf and email/post it.
    So it is hard to know the target.
    You can trim away the unmasked portions of the images in Preview and bring them back into Pages.
    You can ensure there is exactly the resolution you need in final size in the document, 150dpi for HG pdf for screen, or 300 dpi for print. Preview can adjust resolution.
    If this is meant for screen and not print you can resave the images as jpegs as lower quality in Preview. Be aware that this is a compromise, smaller size is lower quality and ultimately noticeable. The process is lossy.
    Vector (drawn) objects remain sharp and are very small compared to bitmap images, so use pdf or font graphics where possible.

  • Index file increase with no corresponding increase in block numbers or Pag file size

    Hi All,
    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue and/or can help explain why it is happening....
    I have a BSO cube fronted by a Hyperion Planning app, in version 11.1.2.1.000
    The cube is in it's infancy, but already contains 24M blocks, with a PAG file size of 12GB.  We expect this to grow fairly rapidly over the next 12 months or so.
    After performing a simple Agg of aggregating sparse dimensions, the Index file sits at 1.6GB.
    When I then perform a dense restructure, the index file reduces to 0.6GB.  The PAG file remains around 12GB (a minor reduction of 0.4GB occurs).  The number of blocks remains exactly the same.
    If I then run the Agg script again, the number of blocks again remains exactly the same, the PAG file increases by about 0.4GB, but the index file size leaps back to 1.6GB.
    If I then immediately re-run the Agg script, the # blocks still remains the same, the PAG file increases marginally (less than 0.1GB) and the Index remains exactly the same at 1.6GB.
    Subsequent passes of the Agg script have the same effect - a slight increase in the PAG file only.
    Performing another dense restructure reverts the Index file to 0.6GB (exactly the same number of bytes as before).
    I have tried running the Aggs using parallel calcs, and also as in series (ie single thread) and get exactly the same results.
    I figured there must be some kind of fragmentation happening on the Index, but can't think of a way to prove it.  At all stages of the above test, the Average Clustering Ratio remains at 1.00, but I believe this just relates to the data, rather than the Index.
    After a bit of research, it seems older versions of Essbase used to suffer from this Index 'leakage', but that it was fixed way before 11.1.2.1. 
    I also found the following thread which indicates that the Index tags may be duplicated during a calc to allow a read of the data during the calc;
    http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1038502076/1038565646/index+file+size+grows+with+same+data+-
    However, even if all the Index tags are duplicated, I would expect the maximum growth of the Index file to be 100%, right?  But I am getting more than 160% growth (1.6GB / 0.6GB).
    And what I haven't mentioned is that I am only aggregating a subset of the database, as my Agg script fixes on only certain members of my non-aggregating sparse dimensions (ie only 1 Scenario & Version)
    The Index file growth in itself is not a problem.  But the knock-on effect is that calc times increase - if I run back-to-back Aggs as above, the 2nd Agg calc takes 20% longer than the 1st.  And with the expected growth of the model, this will likely get much worse.
    Anyone have any explanation as to what is occurring, and how to prevent it...?
    Happy to add any other details that might help with troubleshooting, but thought I'd see if I get any bites first.
    The only other thing I think worth pointing out at this stage is that we have made the cube Direct I/O for performance reasons. I don't have much prior exposure to Direct I/O so don't know whether this could be contributing to the problem.
    Thanks for reading.

    I haven't tried Direct I/O for quite a while, but I never got it to work properly. Not exactly the same issue that you have, but it would spawn tons of .pag files in the past. You might try duplicating your cube, changing it to buffered I/O, and run the same processes and see if it does the same thing.

  • Pages file sizes in Lion

    Anyone have any idea how big files will get using AutoSave/Versions in Lion or if there are any safeguards to prevent the file size from spiraling out of control?
    For example, I write short stories and novels with Pages (I used to use Word 2004 pre-Lion, but that's a Rosetta app), and the files I deal with are just text and formatting. I have one .DOC file from before my Pages adoption that is only 120K, and I have a .pages file that is much shorter in word count than the 120K .DOC file, but as I've been working on it for the past two weeks, that .pages file has grown to 236K, nearly twice the size of its longer .DOC counterpart.
    What worries me is when I end up working on the same file for a couple of years (think 150,000 words or more), how big is it going to be then? Does AutoSave/Versions act like Time Machine and only keep the most recent X months' worth of edits to keep the file at a reasonable size? Or am I going to end up with a text file that has ballooned up to 20 or 30 MB in size because of the several years' worth of versions it has kept that whole time?

    Hi Matt,
    the problem is that a pages 'file' isn't a file at all: it's a folder full of smaller files. Your finder is probably set up NOT to display folder sizes (I believe this is the default since it uses up system resources/CPU calculating them all).
    Go to Finder>View>Show View Options then check the box at the bottom: 'calculate all sizes'. If your pages docs are all in one folder, then you can limit this preference to 'this window only' and save the system calculating folder sizes everywhere. The finder will now display your pages 'file' sizes (you may need to close the finder window and reopen it).
    Hope this makes your yinyang feel better.

  • Essbase cube/pag file size reduction-bitmap compression

    We are seeing some huge pag files in our essbase cube, and Oracle had suggested changing to bitmap compression to see if that will help.(currently, we have 'no compression')
    That said, what is the difference between using RLE versus bitmap encoding for BSO cubes?
    Would like to hear other's experiences.

    (currently, we have 'no compression')^^^You are going to be very happy. Very, very happy.
    You can read the Database Administrator's Guide -- just search for "comrpession".
    Here it is: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/dstalloc.html
    There are a bunch of caveats and rules re the "better" compression method -- having said that, I almost always use RLE as the method it seems the most efficient wrt disk space. This makes sense as this method examines each block and applies the most efficient method: RLE, bitmap, or Index Value pair. I can't see a calculation difference between bitmap and RLE.
    How on earth did you get into the position of no compression in the first place?
    Regards,
    Cameron Lackpour
    Edited by: CL on Jul 18, 2011 10:48 AM
    Whoops, a couple of things:
    1) After you apply the change in compression in EAS or via MaxL, you must stop and then restart the database for the setting to take affect.
    2) You must export the database, clear it out, and reload it using the new compression method -- the change in #1 only affects new blocks so you could have a mix of compressed and uncompressed bliocks in your db which won't do anything for storage space.
    3) The only way to really and truly know which method is more efficient is to benchmark the calculation (think writing to disk which could be a bit slower than it is now) and compression methods is to do it. Try it as bitmap and write down sample calc times and IND and PAG file size, then try it as RLE and do the same.

    how do I save a pages file to a word doc?  My save as disappeared!

    You can Duplicate the file then Save it as a .doc file.
    In Mountain Lion (I don't think this is in Lion), you would click on File then press the Option key to get 'Save As'.

  • How do I keep the same file size, going from tiff to jpg?

    Going from tiff to jpg, how do I keep the same file size? Seems like I am not able to save the jpg´s in 16-bits... Thanks!

    file size? you mean dimensions or file bytes ?
    Jpg is compressed so it won't be the same
    Tiff is losless / lossy format to get the better quality
    as for 16bit jpg the format doesnt support it

    In OS X Pages '09 v4.3, do not be tempted to File > Save... copy as Word document. Instead, you want to export (or Share as Mail), both the PDF and the Word Documents.
    If you choose Share > Send as Mail > PDF (and/or Word), make sure that in Apple Mail, that your composition window has Send Windows-Friendly Attachments selected. You can enable this from the paper-clip icon on the Mail composition window toolbar.

  • Slow Snow Leopard - esp. Parallels or VMWare - 140-500gb VM Page File Size!

    I know that the VM page file size is only the hypothetical maximum VM size that could be used, but immediately after startup on my recently installed (not upgraded) Snow Leopard my VM Size is 140gb. It is not running anything at that point, other than Vuze which starts up at login.
    Before restart, when I was trying to install Windows XP under VMWare, it was over 500gb!
    My MBP 2.4 unibody has been feeling sluggish generally with plenty of beachballs, grinding to a halt under VMWare or Parallels in particular, and I wonder if the VM Size is an indicator of some problem? Examples of Parallels and VMWare problems were that it would take hours to install Windows XP or Windows 7, and eventually just ground to a halt with the install almost finished.
    I have used Disk Utility to check the disk and repair permissions, but maybe bigger guns are needed? I took a quick look at my Xbench results, and the hard drive results were about 40% of the baseline... I have a feeling the hard drive might be churning away on something, slowing everything else down.
    For example, surely it shouldn't take a few seconds to actually show all the applications in the applications folder when you open the folder (when no other programs are running)...

    Sorry, 2gb RAM. When I restarted, the VM Page File Size was 140gb, the free memory was over 1gb, and there were no page in/outs from memory.

  • Max file size OSB 11g can process

    Hi,
    What is the max file size OSB 11g can process? We want to do a POC that picks a file from FTP do some complex transformation and post to another FTP server.
    So in this scenario what can be the max file size OSB 11g can handle?
    Regards,
    Abdul

    Again, there is no fixed limit for message size JMS can handle. It depends on the Heap size available. But, In my experience JMS will reduce the practical limit much more than File/FTP transport. I have seen that you start getting a lot of OOM errors if you try to put very large messages on JMS.
    Also, if you are going to transform the payload after reading via FTP/File transport, then you will need to initialize the complete payload in memory which will restrict the maximum message size which can be processed properly.
    For large Files using Content Streaming is recommended but you can not access the streamed content within a message flow (hence no transformations).
    Another limiting factor is CPU utilization, doing complex transformations on large payload will consume a lot of CPU which will effect any other processes running on the same machine (could be another service instance on OSB itself).
    OSB is supposed to work with lightweight, stateless and fast processing. If you have very complex transformations, invest in an XML Appliance.
    If you need to transfer huge files, then use ODI.

  • 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.

  • Maximum file size data that can be send to MQ using mq adapter

    Dear All,
    What is the maximum file size data that can be send to MQ using mq adapter ?
    The file can be csv, fixed , xml.
    Please let me know if anybody is aware of any limitations
    Best Regards
    Arc

    If you are on 10g then you are looking at a limit of 7MB, although any messages over 1MB will require some tuning.
    You can integrate using the native schema, or xml so you can use csv, fixed length, and xml files.
    cheers
