.PDF Files in FCE

When I bring a text based PDF file into my Final Cut Express project and burn my project onto a DVD the text is jagged and can't be read. Is there any way of fixing this? I've tried converting the file using BMP and JPEG compression but it still doesn't work.

The text in document files is almost never suitable for video. Most books as printed in sizes like 8-12 point. That's garbage in video, where you really don't want to go below 24 point.

  • Using PDF Files in FCE HD

    I am editing a presentation for a construction company using a lot of floor plan overviews and then zooming from room to room as they present. They have been giving me PDF files to use. Per there request I had to clean up some items (I used Illustrator CS3) they didn't want. I tested just one PDF file in FCE before I got any deeper into the project and when I zoom in(I need to zoom in quite a bit to show individual sections of this floor plan) the text and images on the file lose their sharpness. Is there a certain file size I should be starting at or do I need to change the file from a PDF to some other format? Oh and the video is not HD.
    Any help would be great.
    -Jeff

    Depending on the size of the most zoomed in section start with an image size three or four times the DV frame size so you never have to scale up the image.

  • Importing pdf file

    I have imported a book on pdf file into FCE, but the pages turn rapidly and don't match the sound track. I have tried to slow this down by modifying the speed of each page but the speed symbol is grayed out. Do I need to convert this file to something other before I import it to FCE? Or is there a way to match the page turning with the audio track that I am not aware of?
    Thanks for your help

    Can you please explain how I would do that? I would love to have that work...

  • Manipulating photoshop files in FCE...  HELP!!!

    Hi all,
    I am going nuts!! I am not a photoshop expert, but I am doing a job that requires some graphics be imported into FCE. What I need to do is stack multiple clips of the same image on top of one another, one by one, so that they eventually cover up a screen underneith.
    The image that I have from photoshop is a .pdf file. When i import it in and put it on the timeline, i am seeing the white background around the object. I obviously can't have this because as i stack the images I will begin to see the white background that is attached to each image. Does anyone know how I would remove this white background so that I only have the object itself showing up on the canvas???
    I REALLY, REALLY appreciate your help. I've been messing with this for hours!! Thanks,
    Karen

    Hi Tom,
    I have tried to do this as well. I have another post... down the list a little bit that addresses what happened. .pdf was the only one that preserved the original colors... If you don't mind checking out my other post, I'd really appreciate it.

  • Filename in Save As dialog when saving PDF file

    I have a web site serving up PDF files. Without going into details, the URLs of the PDFs are not just your basic URL but look simething like this:
    http://www.domain.com/WorkFlowApp/Clients/demo1/secure/Promo%20Cover%20Cool-MedH i.pdf?userId=55b64ad5-28a2-490e-b3d6-4944099a390f#collab=CollabService@http://ww w.domain.com/ICCollab/IC_Service.asmx?WSDL
    In this case the actual filename is "Promo Cover Cool-MedHi.pdf"
    While viewing in Safari (OS X), if the user saves the PDF to their local machine, the Save As dialog comes up and the filename field is automatically populated. The problem is, instead of using just the filename, the field contains this:
    http---www.domain.com-WorkFlowApp-Clients-demo1-secure-Promo%20Cover%20Cool-MedH i.pdf?userId=55b64ad5-28a2-490e-b3d6-4944099a390f#collab=CollabService@http---ww w.domain.com-ICCollab-IC_Service.asmx?WSDL
    I know when performing the same action on Windows using Internet Explorer, the Save As dialog box filename field is populated correctly with just the filename (although it shows up URL encoded as Promo%20Cover%20Cool-MedHi.pdf, which is OK).
    I'd like to be able to force Safari to use just the filename in the Save As dialog box. Has anyone come accross this problem and figured out a solution?

    Hello Ebnul.nao
    I am having this same problemwith trying to work this out.
    Did you succeed in the end?
    I will really appreciate your help if you did

  • I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.

  • PDF File Size - any way to compress further?

    We have are using the Crystal for .NET export method to export a report to a .pdf file, and are having an issue with the pdf file size on a report that contains images.  The images are stored in a SQL2005 database as blob or varbinary(max).  The report executes a stored procedure that selects data (including images) to produce a quotation.  There are input parms to decide which images to print (for example A, B or both A&B). Both types of images can appear at the line level on the quotation. Type A images print in the main report, Type B images are in a subreport.  Both the main report & subreport execute a stored procedure to select an image type.
    Our issue, when both Type A and B image is selected to print on a 293 line quote.  The PDF file size is 44.23MB
    When Type A only is selected, the PDF file size is 2.64MB
    When Type B only is selected, the PFD file size is 43.95MB.
    There are more Type B images that would print at the line level than Type A, but is there any way to compress this down further as it is too large to email.

    You mention that you are using Crystal for .NET, but not what version; CR for .NET 2003, 2005, 2008. 2010?
    Applying the latest fixes for the correct version of CR would be the first thing to do.
    Next, I'd have a close look at image B as it appears to be the one adding the most "bulk". How is this image different from image A?
    General tips re. images:
    Save the files a BMPs.
    When .jpg image is inserted into Crystal Reports it is converted into bitmap format and as the result of the conversion the report may loose some quality, scale and other issues may arise... E.g.; Crystal Reports is not so good a graphics management tool
    When an image is saved as a .bmp, then there is no conversion required and thus the quality of the image should be preserved.
    Best practice: save the image with high resolution and required size as a .bmp format then insert this image into Crystal Reports.
    Resize the image to the smallest possible size and downgrade the DPI to 72. This will ensure your image is as small as possible and Crystal Reports will have to put in the least amount of work to display it.
    Have a look ar KB [1241630 - Exporting a Crystal report (XI) to PDF generates a big PDF file|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233343331333633333330%7D.do]. This KB, may apply to your version of CR, or not. In any case, you will have to use the KB as a guide and determine what the appropriate registry entry would be for your version of CR.
    One more thing. Many people like to use jpg files as they are smaller than bmp files. However, as far as Crystal Reports is concerned, this is inconsequential. The report file will be the same size if a file is inserted as a jpg or a bmp. This is due to the jpg conversion to bmp Crystal Reports does internally.

  • How to read,dispaly and open pdf files

    Hi, I am very new to Java butI have VB6.0 background. My current requirement is to read pdf file names from a directory, then
    show them on a form in a list (with their path in background pointing to the actual pdf files) and then once a user clicks any
    file name, open that file on the form.
    For example:
    My pdf files are in a directory as following:
    C:\myreports\user1\
    report1.pdf
    report2.pdf
    report3.pdf
    C:\myreports\user2\
    report1.pdf
    report5.pdf
    The output on the form should look like this if user1 has logged in the system. Side note: I am able to get userid of the logged in person in a variable.
    My Reports:
    . Report 1
    . Report 2
    . Report 3
    When a user clicks Report 1, it opens on the same form in pdf format.
    Thanks
    S.yhong

    For the first part (Listing thepdf files in the directory) you can use the java.lang.File class.
    File f = new File("path to your directory");
    File files[] = f.listFiles();
    then process the files array to find the files with extenction pdf
    You can also use a file filter object and make the listFiles method return only the pdf files.
    Please read the documentation about the File class for more info about it.
    */ For the displaying the pdf part is it good enough if you load the accrobat reader and with it. In that case you can do that using the Runtime.exec
    Also you can search for free java based pdf viewers I am sure there must be meny.
    And also the JTextPane might support pdf but I am not sure about it.
    EDIT:
    Just to say that this is my 1000th post :)

  • How to open a popup win within a PDF file (c:\test.pdf) as Column Link

    I have a interactive report based on a Table (EMP). I need to create a column link that opens a pdf file within the employee curricula
    All the curriculum are stored in a windows folder, and in the EMP table there is a field named PATH containing the full path name.
    Thxs,
    Giuseppe.

    Hello, Sebastian
    I've tested your suggestion and in effect it works.
    I think is good solution if the files are readonly (pdf, images, etc).
    In my case the files are updatable by the end user.
    Consider that I'm using the following configuration:
    APEX 4.0, DB 11.2.0.1 and EPG
    This means that:
    a. All the files need to be loaded in the XML_DB via PL/SQL or via WebDAV (let's say in... /i/mydocs)
    b. When the end user opens the file via the "Column link" this is read-only in the browser, to modify it, the end user need to save updated version in (/i/mydocs), replacing the existing ones, .. and this is a bit complicated .
    Any other suggestion will be appreciate.
    Regards,
    Giuseppe.
