How do you improve menu resolution?

I'm using a high quality .png for my menu. Looks great, but after DVD burning, the menu looks low res and washed out, especially on a comp, and seems to kind of vibrate if you look closely. Looks terrible. Is there a setting where you can adjust the menu resolution to the highest quality? Or is there perhaps a method of using overlays to improve the quality? What am I doing wrong?

The size of the file is 6.3MB.
It is the pixel resolution. If you are using CS2 (do not recall if it is also in CS) there are the proper templates for NTSC-DV etc with aspect ratios. Otherwise you will need to set up a 720 x 534 template then rescale to 720 x 480 without constraining proportions (this is NTSC 4:3) The user manual suggests (for NTSC 16:9) 864 x 480 resized (without constraining proportions) to 720 x 480)

How do you change the resolution of a Photo?

In iPhoto, how to you reduce the resolution of a photo in order to reduce the file size? This makes it easier to email because of the smaller file size?

Let's say I have a photo with a resolution of of 3264 x 2448 pixels.
Tat's not a measurement of resolution, that's the dimensions (length x breadth) of the photo, expressed in pixels.
Resolution is a vague term most used to describe the density of pixels - i.e the pixels per inch.
1) I want to edit it and reduce the resolution to 1024 x 768 pixels.
No, you want to reduce the dimensions of the image to 1024 x 768
2) Do this within iPhoto without using the export feature thereby keeping the edited photo in iPhoto?
You can't. It can only be done on export. Why? When you edit a photo iPhoto preserves the original and makes a copy of the file containing the edit. As most people reduce the dimensions, file size or resolution for a specific purpose (to upload it for instance), it's thought best to export it, upload it nd then trash it.
Of course, you can simply import the export back in, if you have a burning need of it in iPhoto.

How can I improve screen resolution on tablet

I loaded Firefox for Android on my Motorola Zoom. I set it to request the desktop site. When the site comes up it is very blurry. Not sharp and crisp like other screens on the tablet. If I double tap to zoom in the resolution gets better. How can I improve the resolution? The basic Android browser is very crisp.

How can you tell what resolution a movie is?

How can you tell in iMovie 09 what resolution a movie is?
The only two have used were HD and standard, but we are not sure which in our collection are which.
Is there an easy way to tell?
Thanks.

Easiest way is to open the clip using QuickTime Player. Then click Command-I to open the inspector.
(Or click WINDOW/INSPECTOR)

HI all how do you improve quality of pdf presentation yet keep MBs using adobe cs2

Hi Adobe experts . How can I improve the presentation quality when
downloaded of a pdf presentation created in adobe cs2 and keep the MB size down/ have it at
3.67mb too slow when downloaded

You would have to lower the compression quality of the JPEG embedding. Aside from that, you might be able to remove unnecessary data from the PDF by using the optimization features in Acrobat.

How do you make the resolution clearer in Acrobat documents?

I scanned in documents into pdf files inorder to be able to read them from the computer. But parts of the document are not clear and hard to read. I figured out how to get higher resolution by converting the document to word. But when it converted there were lots of typos and the format had changed. So I was wondering if there is anyway to make the resolution higher, or just make the document clearer overall, without converting it?
Any suggestions would be helpful!

Hello,
If you don't mind, could you send a few example PDFs to us at [email protected]? FYI, we may not have an immediate solution, but we'd like to take a look with future improvements in mind...
Thank you!

How to increase/improve the resolution ?

Hi there,
I have this old video & I check the resolution is only something like 400 x 288. If i use it on my sequence (which is set at 1920 x 1080), it will be very blur.
Any recommendation to increase/up/improve the old video to 1920 x 1080 ?
Thanks

There is nothing you can do.
The video will always be of 400x288 quality so it doesn't rally matter how you enlarge it.
You could try using the Brightness, Contrast and Sharpness controls to imprrove the appearance though they might make matters even worse.
It's something you will have to try for yourself but you will probably find that it has been a waste of time.

You need to rescan at a higher resolution. My suggestion is to scan in your scanner's software. Scan to TIFF the import the file or files into Acrobat. The resolution needed depends upon the application. For most situations 300 dpi is more than enough.

Question: How do you remove Menu Items from showing up in LC

Hello everyone:
If someone can please point me in the right direction in how to convert app.hideMenuItem("Toolbars"); to the XFA SOM?
I am creating the form using Adobe Distiller from an access report. I change the Interface Options in Acrobat to hide file and toolbar menus, but when I convert it to LC, the options are removed.
I also scripted app.hideMenuItem("Toolbars"); in the Page.Open event using Acrobat and when I convert to LC the code does nothing at the subPage1.Initialize event. Not even when I reopen the converted form in Acrobat does the script run...
What is the best method of hidding menu items using LC Designer?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,

Ivan,
Here is what liitle I know on this topic.
The attached doc was created when Designer 7 was released and it has a table of the Acrobat JavaScript APIs and there equivalents, if any, in Designer. According to that doc, app.hideMenuItem() is supported in Designer and there is no Designer JavaScript equivalent.
My brief look at this matter leads me to believe security constraints since Reader 6.0 have changed the rules.
I recommend you take a look at trusted functions and context in the Acrobat 9 SDK.

How do you disable menu bar icons from being moved?

The students at our school have discovered that if you hold down the Command key and click on certain menu bar items (such as the icons for Displays, Sound, Date & Time, Keyboard Layout, etc.) it is possible to move them around. It is also possible to drag them out of the menu bar and they disappear in the normal "puff of smoke" which you get when dragging items out of the Dock. Is there a way of disabling this nifty little feature, or at least of having it reset at login?
We are using Workgroup Manager (XServe, OS X 10.4.8) to manage the setup of the student computers, and I cannot find a setting relating to management of the actions I have described. The problem is that we have enabled a Vietnamese keyboard layout. The students can select it when needing to type in Vietnamese in Word 2004, and then set it back to the normal layout (Australian, in this case). Occasionally they forget to set it back to normal. Then, if a student in the next class decides to command-drag the keyboard layout icon out of the menu bar, the Vietnamese layout either becomes the default (with no way for them to change it back) and/or sometimes "kicks in" without any discernible reason when trying to connect to the server, making logging-on a challenge (the layout re-maps some of the characters). Any suggestions would be appreciated. We have already tried enabling access to the "International" System Preference, but some students then go out of their way to add every keyboard layout (there are dozens of them!) and/or change the language settings - have you (as a mono-lingual person) ever tried to navigate through menus when they are in Chinese, Arabic, or Hungarian? We would like to be able to somehow "lock down" the icons which are displayed in the menu bar (top RH corner) so that they can not be deleted or, alternatively, re-appear at next login if they have been deleted.

Go to Settings>General>Auto-Lock and set a longer interval.

How did you improve the wiki today?

I've noticed that, while the Arch Wiki has some very good and very active editors, it doesn't have many of them and they simply cannot do much more than fix what they've already got. Other than new translations, merges, and formatting fixes, there isn't much going on and, more importantly, not much new content being added. This seems to be because the same people edit the wiki day in, day out (no offense to our regular editors) and, of course, have a limited area of subjects they are comfortable with. To encourage new users or even old ones in redoubling their efforts, I thought that this "bragging thread" might be a good idea. The idea is simple: just create a short post in reply to this stating any contributions you have made to the wiki or even contributions you are planning to make. The reasons for this are many:
It will help to encourage other people by seeing the volume of work being done.
You and others can learn from it by discussing any difficulties you have.
It is a good way of keeping track of where the general trend of work is going, and having people talk about their ideas in their own words is much more useful than manically checking and re-checking the "Recent changes" page.
Most importantly, it gives you an excuse to brag about your work.
If you are new to editing the Arch Wiki or wikis in general, here are some documents that could help you:
Help:Editing -- general Arch Wiki editing guide
Writing Article Introductions -- guide on writing article introductions
Writing Article Overviews -- guide on writing article overviews for summaries
ArchWiki Cheatsheet -- a useful cheatsheet for various formatting and style options
If you are unsure about where to start, the list of "Request" categories might be a fertile ground for improvements.
Now that you have everything you need to know, get editing, and don't forget to tell us all about it. Just a few words or a note is fine.

Thank you to everyone who has participated so far, I highly encourage you to keep updating the thread with any meaningful changes (i.e., anything more substantial than changing "teh" to "the"). Even just small formatting fixes might provide information to people reading this thread about good formatting practices. There are also lots of really clever things that you won't see in any editing guides or the cheat sheet. For instance, the keypress tag: {{Keypress|Text}} .
Other examples of good things people never do include:
Adding a summary (it can be a valuable resource for someone just trying to learn about the content of the page and can contain links to useful information).
Using the AUR package tag (f.e. {{Package AUR|broken aur package}} ), which dynamically creates a link to the page for an AUR package.
The note tag (f.e. {{Note|The only useful information on this page.}} ). Using the note tag for a note is a good way of making sure that people will notice it if they are just skimming the page.
By that token, you should also use the warning tag when you have something possibly critical to say about a possible danger (f.e. {{Warning|This fix may make your desktop eat your children.}}
Another good tag is the "tip" tag (f.e. {{Tip|Something copied verbatim from a technical blog.}} ).
Overusing headers. Yes, this is a good thing. Like XML and violence, if they aren't working, you aren't using enough. The table of contents is a valuable navigation tool, and adding even fairly redundant headers can be something that a reader might find useful.
These things are useful for providing valuable information to the reader who, again, might just be skimming the article. Very few people are going to have an in-depth scan of a page consisting of few headers or anything breaking the page up and nothing but miles of block paragraphs, simply on the off chance that it might help to solve their problem. Most people will try to use the table of contents to go directly to whatever section might help them, then will skim through looking for code blocks, tips, notes, warnings, etc., to see if that information is valuable. Once they've ascertained that, they will probably read in more depth.
Remember, it's better to over-format a page than to under-format. One of the advantages of the Arch Wiki (and wikis in general) is their easy readability -- they're good for someone who might just be skimming along looking for an easy fix or relevant information.

How do you improve the speed of processing and printing of PDF from CAD in indesign?

I work for an engineering consultancy company and for a long while I have suffered with using PDFs files generated from AutoCAD when placed within an InDesign report. There are three issues that arise:
The files take a long time to process when preparing the InDesign report. (This is mainly in high quality preview mode)
The files take a long time to export to PDF
(The most annoying one) The files take a long time to process and print when sent from the PDF to the colour laser printer. So much so, a single page from InDesign that contains a PDF generated from CAD can take up to 15 mins to print.
I have tried converting the PDFs to jpegs prior to insertion into the InDesign document, but the quality and colour is dramatically reduced thus them useless. Is there any pre processing on the PDFs generated from CAD that I can do to reduce the impact that it has within InDesign and in the post processing?
We also get missing font warnings that arise from the inserted PDFs from CAD that may or may not be an issue. Your advice here would also be appreciated.
I would be the first to admit that I am not the most advanced user of InDesign though I am sure that my workflow could be improved to alleviate the situation.
Your assistance would be appreciated!

Thanks for your quick response.
I have tried both options you have recommended, but unfortunately the file size doesn't seem to be the issue. Most of our CAD files (except for when they contain raster backgrounds) are around 0.5-2Mb which isn't massive compared to some jpegs. The PDF optimization process does make a small difference to the file size but only in the region of perhaps 5% reduction.
If it helps the most awkward file I am using at the moment has this audit result, pre-optimization. This is typical of the CAD files produced by AutoCAD. As you can see the content streams take up the highest percentage that doesn't reduce that much even when the optimizer has all options engaged.
What do you think?

How do you change the resolution size of a mp4 file?

I am looking for a free (really free, not just a trial for 30 days free) program that will allow me to change the resolution of a mp4 video.
If this is a "parameter" setting issue in DW what would be the parameter and the value?
The video is here: http://www.argraph.com/Sirui-P-Series-Monopods.html#psSeries.............a little past midway down the page.
As you see the words SIRUI and the tag line cannot be seen in their entirety.
THIS is the way it should look.....
The second image represents a youtube link but my boss said he cannot see it on his laptop or tablet
and insists that I use mp4 because it works with all formats; iphone, android, pc and mac.
I tried doubling the size of the file and it worked but was SOoooooo big that it blew the page out so I suspect that I
have to resize the file.
Ken? Nancy? ANYBODY????? Seriously as always any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

1. As far as HTML5 support, if they have a browser made within the last few years (I think since about 2009), it supports html5. The page I linked to gives the versions where all of the major browsers started supporting the <video> tag.
2. The "your browser does not support..." text is what appears on screen when a viewer uses a browser that doesn't support HTML5 (like IE8).
If you still plan to support the old non-html5 browsers, the best thing to do is to place a fallback video using the old <object><embed> method in that "your browser does not support" location. That way, if they don't have an html5 compatible browser, the fallback video will play using whatever plug-in they have installed to deal with it. It would look like this...
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
<object width="320" height="240">
<param name="movie" value="myvideo.swf" />
<embed src="movie.swf" width="320" height="240"></embed>
</object>
</video>
