Making PDFs Fillable - Why are they 3xs the size of the Original w/Acrobat Pro 9
What I'm Doing:
I have been creating documents out of InDesign that I export to PDF Format and then go into Acrobat 9.0 Pro to make fillable. In Acrobat 9.0, I'll begin with a PDF that is around 1M. Normally, once the fields are added it may increase to file size of about 1.3M.
What Has Changed:
Yesterday, I replaced on of my fillable PDF documents that was previously more pages with more fillable fields with an updated PDF (using replace pages and deleting the extra pages). The PDF I replaced the old document with went from 1.3M to 4.3M. Even when I went to Advanced and Optimized the PDF to remove fields etc. the file remained over 4M.
What Doesn't Make Sense:
A colleague who has an older version of Acrobat Pro, opened my fillable file and just resaved it and it went back down to 1.5M. He did nothing to it but open it, save it and close it in his version.
Help!
Does anyone know what is making my fillable PDF so bloated? Is there somewhere besides PDF Optimize that I should using to make the file size smaller?
I think he did us Save As. I tried it, just to see and it didn't change the size for me. I called Adobe for help and they suggested I use "Document, Reduce File Size" which did reduce it from 4.02M to 4.01M.
Reduce File Size:
I tried Reduce File Size again and chose to reduce to Acrobat 4.0 and later, but received an error that there was an open embedded OpenType font.
Unembedding:
So, I unembedded all of the fonts, which brought it down to 3.85M.
Reduce File Size:
Then I ran Reduce File Size again and it went to 3.84M.
Save As:
Then I did a "Save As" and it went to 3.70M.
Result:
Still not as dramatic as my colleague's save from 4M to 1.5M.

I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users. Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS. When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!
Hello RumDog,
I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
Where are my iTunes files located?

Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
You can then:
Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?
Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
To change that select:
Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
Menu > View > Hide Layout

Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken?
Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken? For example, try searching for SocketChannel and then clicking on any of the returned links, in particular click on www.oracle.com/technetwork/servers-storage/ts-4222-159193.pdf.
This is the second time I have tried to search for Java information and both times found broken links.
Does anyone know where I can find more information on using a SocketChannel?Kayaman wrote:

They have a huge investment in it and would need to replace or discontinue a number of products that they paid quite a bit of money for.
On the other hand in might just be that they don't much about providing support that doesn't lead to revenue. Thus support contracts have a support channel while public links get little support. -
In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button" And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?
These two things need to be remedied in their upgrades because It's become such a bother I've had to revert to older versions of PS.Yea, and it's a pain to get to. What was the rational for removing the print size button? With the magnifying glass tool selected in older versions of Photoshop you would get a button that says "print size" right next to Actual pixels, Fit Screen, Fill Screen. Now I have to go out of my way and dig for it if I want to see the print size. Of all the buttons you could have taken away, why not fill screen? I never use that.
Besides the point I just downloaded the Oct Upgrade for PS and surprise! Nothing has changed and these are two big black eyes on newer versions of Photoshop. The Brush preview window is unchanged in CC but in CC2014 it's basically worthless. If you apply a texture to a brush you can't properly see the scale of the texture, the spacing, scatter, etc... -
I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list. I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?
Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads. -

Why won't Lenovo refund my money? Why are they ignoring me?
I ordered recovery media on the 30th of July and I never received them. I am pretty sure they wrote the address wrong. They took long amounts of time to reply to my messages about not recieving the media and I ended up installing Windows 7 myself and then all the necessary software and drivers. I made it clear to them in 2 messages that they were far too late and that I didn't want the recovery media anymore and I wanted a refund instead, but they ignored both messages completely and sent me a message saying that they were going to ship it free of charge. I don't want it. I made this very clear.
Also, I can't believe the nerve of them saying 'free'. No, I paid €37, and I didn't get what I want and will not get what I want, because I paid for it to be shipped in 3-5 days like the website says, not nearly a month later. Getting it nearly a month later is a completely different service that I never paid for. I have therefore not gotten and cannot get what I paid for so I want a refund. Why are they ignoring my messages? I sent yet another message yesterday and got no reply. That is 3 messages they have ignored now.The download is huge, 1.6GB, so it will take a while to download and if it fails, clear your browser’s cache and try again, or try a different browser.
There is nothing on the page that will prevent you from downloading it multiple times. If you are getting an error it is likely your internet connection or some internet security software or something else blocking. Did you watch the download and did it completely successfully or did it just stop?
On the page with the Try link there is a link for when you’re having problems downloading, which it seems like you are:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-download-problems.html
There are phone numbers for Adobe but usually it is an exercise in frustration talking to someone in India who has a script they will lead you through, not unlike what it says on the help page, just slower.

Which version of Dreamweaver should I be learning. CS6 or CC? Why are they different?
Which version of Dreamweaver should I be learning. CS6 or CC? Why are they different? I am learning CS6 in school, I wanted to practice at home so I joined Creative Cloud. Although both versions are available, I understand that the DWCC is the most recent version and CS6 will be faded out. I'm half way through CS6 and now see there are a lot of differences in the format of CC.
Jon has the best answer here, though nancy's absolutely correct. I have seen no instruction manuals for the Creative Cloud version of Dreamweaver.
Fact is, while there are differences, if you learn CS6, Creative Cloud won't be too much of a stretch. I would suggest that there are lots of differences between Dreamweaver MX (released 29 May 2002) and Creative Cloud (released this year). So, if you're looking at an old MX tutorial, it's probably a good idea to purchase a different book and tutorial.
Dreamweaver is, essentially, a code editor. This is absolutely crucial for you to understand. It's not like Adobe's InDesign, a drag-and-drop WYSIWYG page layout tool. The Worldwide Web is entirely based on HyperText Markup Language, which is in its 4th version, with a 5th proposed and on the cusp of being agreed to. Dreamweaver started supporting HTML5 with CS 5.5 (version 11.5).
So, if what you do is go out and buy books on HTML 4, XHTML and HTML5, you will be learning what is really required in Dreamweaver. As to the Dreamweaver interface, it's a bunch of panels that can, pretty much, be ignored. If you edit in Split View, you will see your web page as you build it (but it won't really be correct unless you switch to Live View, which does not update as you edit). And you still have to check everything out in a browser (two or three would actually be good).
So, do your tutorials on CS6 because they'll pretty much give you a good enough idea about how Dreameaver CC works, but learn HTML and CSS. Otherwise, you'll find yourself hopelessly lost.

I am new to mac. just purchaased it 3 weeks ag along with MS office for mac, i notice that all my outlook email are in this finder folder, can i delete these email files from this location? why are they there anyway?

I am talking about the icon on the docking row, that's the guy with the smily face. When you click on him it brings up a bunch of files of what I seem to have store/created on my Imac. There are hundreds of emails and some other documents. I tried to delete a few of them when I first got the MS office but it did not like that, it said it have to rebuild oulook. Why cant i delete these files? is this Apple version of Window outlook PST files?
These file extenssions are listed as
olk14_message or even or ccontact. I wish I could send a screen print but I dont see that on the key board. Maybe I should have stuck with windows..
Oh the ...olk14_message's. Do not delete them behind Outlooks back, i.e., from the finder. Those are the various messages that you sent, received, or deleted in Outlook. They are indexed by Outlook so if you delete behind Outlook's back Outlook will get confused trying to access those messages.
You can delete them however using Outlook itself. In outlook select a mailbox (Drafts, Sent Items, Deleted Items, etc.) by clicking on the mailbox on the left. It will show you the messages in that mailbox. You can now select all or selected items in that mailbox. The click the Edit menu and select Delete. You will get a dialog asking if you really want to delete the selections. Answer "Delete" and the messages will get deleted.
The olk14_message's you are seeing are the actual messages shown the Outlook mail boxes. When you actually delete them the way I just described the corresponding olk14_message files will also be deleted.
Note Outlook's Deleted Items mailbox is where all deleted messages go when you click the Delete tool in the Outlook toolbar. Thus using the Delete tool from the toolbar does not permanently delete the messages. So if you been using that for months or years you are going to have a very large Deleted Items mailbox. And every one of those items in there is going to have a corresponding olk14_message file for that message.
So if those olk14_message files you are seeing are from the Deleted Items mailbox you can get rid of all those corresponding olk14_message files by selecting all the messages in Deleted Items and using the Edit menu's Delete.
Alternative ways to the Edit/Delete to do the permanent delete is select (all) the messages to delete and control (right) click to bring up the Outlook contextual menu and select Delete from it.
Finally if you use the Delete tool in the toolbar for messages selected in the Deleted Items mailbox you will be able to permanently delete those too. It's an exception since using the tool on the Deleted Items means there's no place to put those messages except to "oblivion".
So, in summary, using the Delete tool in the toolbar on messages in every mailbox except the Deleted Items mailbox just moves messages to the Deleted Items mailbox. But using the Delete tool on items in them Deleted Items mailbox permanently deletes the selected items in there. And only permanently deleting items removes the corresponding actual ...olk14_message files. -
