How to comment on large pdf without slowing down?

I am using the commenting and annotations function to highlight and draw textboxes on a large pdf. I have found as I go through the document the more of these I do the slower the function becomes (now taking appox 9-10 for each function, ie, to highlight, then to draw box, then to write in box) and am only about a quarter of the way through. Is there a better/quicker way of markup up documents?

Thank you for your response.
I should have explained better and we have continued to work on this. The initial work was done on a machine without a lot of memory. After moving to a machine with more memory, Acrobat is able to handle some files. But on one with 7700 pages it get a message "And error was encounted while processing images". And when that dialog is closed another comes up saying "Insufficeint data for an image" and then the hourglass stays up. It seems like it runs out of memory.
In terms of what errors are in the file, what I do know is that Acrobat will put up the dialog saying "An error exists on this page. ... Contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem".
I have tried the Preflight. I have tried the compliance with the Acrobat 5 and it doesn't find any errors. Some errors are reported on PDF/ Is there a way to find out what causes the initial reported error. There are a lot of individual repairs that can be made, but this seems to be too much trial and error. That is why I used the Save As Optimized, which does seem to work on smaller files, but does fail on the larger ones.
Thank you for any suggestions,
Jeff

You shouldn't disable Spotlight completely; Apple's App Store relies on it to keep track of updates to software you've downloaded and permit you to update them when they're available. Instead, in Spotlight preferences, uncheck everything in "Search Results." Spotlight will still run for OS and App Store purposes but won't be useful for your search needs any longer. Instead, check out EasyFind in the App Store. It's fast, flexible, and will search external drives Spotlight hasn't indexed.

How to Optimize/Correct Large PDF files

I have several large PDF files (>5000 pages) that were created with errors. I don't have the option of having them corrected. If I use a smaller file I can correct the errors using the Save As Optimized command using the default settings. However, when I try this with a larger file, Acrobat runs for several minutes and becomes non responsive. Is there another command or even Adobe product that would be more appropriate for accomplishing this? Since I have a number of these files, a program that could be batched would be better.
Thank you,

How to convert a large PDF into smaller files

How does one convert a large PDF file into smaller files and not get odd page breaks. Need to get the page breaks at the headers. Just looking for instructions for an end user of Acrobat Pro who reports getting random page breaks and couldn't get help from the Adobe help desk. I was directed here when I tried to contact support ... Figure this forum may have information. ... thanks.

You can't. If you split the file into pages it will remain in the same layout the original has. PDF files were not meant to be edited in the way you're describing.

How do I export a PDF without the print bleed extra "stuff" around the edges?

I know my question wording sucks, but I didn't know how else to put it.
I created a document in ID for print with a bleed. When I export to PDF, the image is not cropped to the finished size of the page, but includes the excess background images that I extended beyond the page bounds for a bleed. I am now trying to export a PDF that can be sent in email and will not be printed, and so I would like to export a PDF file that does not have any of that extra stuff (I have turned off the printer's marks) around the edges. But my PDF has the excess stuff and a red outline around the actual page dimensions. How do I export a PDF that is cropped to the correct page size (8.5" x 11")?
I have attached the PDF I have created with the excess stuff and the red outline around the page size so you can see what I mean.
Thanks!
Bryan

Hello,
i have a problem exporting as a PDF also, i have done this before successfully and i have unchecked all the boxes to turn off bleeds etc, etc... however the bleed area is still coming through. I have tried saving the file under another name, closing down and reopening - nothing seems to work. I'd be very grateful if someone could offer some advice on this.
Thanks!

How do I print large PDFs from Adobe on Linux?

Hello. I am writing this request with an issue involving Adobe Reader.
I am having difficulty getting large PDF files to print from some standalone kiosk machines. The machines run off of a Linux OS, and a delay occurs each time a large PDF file is sent to the printer. I believe this issue may involve the actual machine units (which each have a CPU speed of about 1.33 GHz), but would like to determine if there are any alternate issues or solutions that anyone may know of.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Importing audio files without slowing down site?

Being new to mac and iweb, i have found that with my photo gallery web site that when i attach an audio file to play when a certain page is viewed that my site load time is dramatically slowed down.
Anybody know how to speed it up?

The files used in those flash player examples are just the mp3 files from iTunes. You upload them to the Music folder on your iDisk (or to a folder on your server), copy the code from the demo page, paste into an HTML snippet, get the URL to each audio file and you;re ready to go.http://discussions.apple.com/images/status/ball-05.gif
With iTunes I suppose you could reduce the bit rate and sample rate to lower the file size but that will reduce the audio quality. You can do the same with more control with Audacity, a free audio editing application. If you take the time to learn how to use an HTML snippet you'll get superior results.

How to upload files in cluster without bringing down the cluster.

Hi,
Here is my problem:
My weblogic portal 7.0 application should run in 24x7 environment. The production
system is running in a cluster mode with external staging. Both the managed servers
are pointing to the same application sync database.
So to give a solution to this problem, we are trying to bring down one managed
server down and apply the patches into that managed server without bringing down
the other. Since webflow files and entitlements needs to be synchronized with
the portal database. If we perform a sync on the portal database, there might
be a chance that it might corrupt the existing portal database state. Our deployment
would not be complete unless we perform a sync on the other managed servers. So
we could not able to update the latest pathces into the cluster without bringing
down the cluster.
What I would like to know is "Is there any work around to get rid of this problem?".
I would be delighted if any one provides the solution.
Thanks & Regards,
Ratnakar

Hi Ratnakar,
When you perform sync you do it against the admin server which in turn does it
to the managed server. If you want to apply any changes to webflow you can do
it on the live system itself. I mean apply the new webflow and entitlements and
do the sync on the live system. Also while doing sync there are two modes. One
mode will sync only the modified changes and the other will apply all of it. You
can opt for the first option by which you can sync only the modified changes.
This may bring a small disturbance but it will be unnoticed.
The other option is to have two separate domains(each having one admin & one or
more managed servers) which may be having two separate portal databases. In this
way you can apply patches to one domain while other domain may provide the service.

Shaan

Hello there! Does anybody know RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll. What is it and how can I remove it because it slows down my computer. Thank you.

Starting my computer this morning I immediately was informed by Norton Security that RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll is safe. I don´t know this data and I want to remove ist because it slows down my computer. Has that something to do with Firefox? The Information of Firefox-Troubleshooting shows the following detail:
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0.1
Can you help me?
Thank you in anticipation.

To whom it may concern here the answer I received today from Norton Support:
''I would like to inform you that the RadioWMPCoreGecko 5.dll files was downloaded as an update for the Firefox browser which runs in the background and Norton program does not have any control on the downloads till it is safe.
If the download is safe, Norton program will notify you and will block, if file finds to be suspicious.''
Now I know what it is, but nevertheless my PC is still rather slow.

How can I save a PDF without specifying the directory?

When I try to save changes I made to a PDF (highlighting and/or commenting), I'm prompted to specify which directory I'd like to save to, and I have to verify that "yes, I want to overwrite the existing file that has the same name". I just want to save the changes I made to the file I made the changes in. Is there a setting I can change to skip all the hassle?
I'm using Adobe Reader XI and windows 8.1.
Thank you,
Ted

I don't think it is a good idea to put it in /usr/bin at all but if you must, isn't it safer to move it there, as Trilby suggested? And change the permissions appropriately? That doesn't strike me as especially wise but it seems better than symlinking to an executable in your home directory from /usr/bin.
One way to mitigate security threats is to limit the PATH root uses. So for an ordinary user, you might include /usr/local/bin or ~/bin. But for root, you wouldn't include these. This makes it a little bit harder to run something malicious as root inadvertently. If you start symlinking to executables in your home directory from /usr/bin, you defeat this. For example, I use this PATH for root:
/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl
So root can't even run stuff under /usr/local on my machine without explicitly giving the path. But if I symlinked from /usr/bin to stuff under ~/, there would be no point in the restriction.
EDIT: but I just realised sudo can... damn!

How to split a large PDF into many smaller PDFs

In my wanderings, I couldn't find an answer to this question. Thus my post.
I have a large, 20 page, pdf. I'd like to split that pdf into 10 two page pdfs. How can I do it?
The 20 pager is a pdf of a number of account statements. The account statements varying in length from 1 to 3 pages. I'd like to split the pdf so I end up with one pdf per account.
In advance, thank you for your help

Hi.
It's simple: open the PDF, go to File, Print, and in the print dialog select Copies & Pages, enter the range you want, click PDF/Save as PDF.
Good Luck.
