Pdf is very big, compared to original

I just converted a 300 dpi tiff which was 18 x 20 inches to a pdf, and the pdf turned out to be 76 x 126 (approx).  I need the smaller size for printing, according to the company that if producing the document.  Any idea on how to help me?  Thanks.

I figured out the solution!
In Adobe Acrobat Professional, go to Acrobat > Preferences.
From the Preferences window, go to Page Display and set the Zoom to 100% and set the Custom Resolution to whatever resolution your original file is in.
When I opened mine, the Custom Resolution was set to 98 pixels/inch but my original file was at 72 so that's why my pdfs were bigger. Once I set the custom resolution to 72, it worked perfectly and the document width and height was the same as the original.
Hope this works for you.

  • Pictures in form / PDF files very big..!

    I need to build a order form, with a lots of pictures so we can illustrate the use for things in the form. We normally use PageMaker and convert our file it into PDF files and send it out by mail.
    I hoped at acrobat professional 7.0 (Designer 7) could maker those PDF files and people just could fill in the order, and send it back as a PDF file, but when I start to put pictures in designer, the file just goes really big. If I put only one picture in, that are 103 kb, the finish PDF file is 1.4 MB.
    I need to have 50 pictures in my order form, any suggestions ?

  • Print very big JTable

    Hi all,
    i have to print a very big table with 100000 rows and 6 columns, i have put the System.gc() at the end of the print method but when i print the table the print process become too big (more or less 700 kB for page and there are 1048 pages).
    It is possible to make a pdf of my table and this solution is better like the first?
    When i make the preview this take a lot of time for the size of the table, because first i have to create the table and then i preview it.
    There is a way to reduce the time lost for the table generation?
    N.B.: the data in the table is always the same.
    Thanks a lot!!!

    There is a way to reduce the time lost for the table
    generation? Write a table model, extending AbstractTableModel.
    The model is queried for each cell. Usually all the columns
    of one row are retrieved before getting next row. You may cache
    one row in the model: not the whole table!

  • Very Big Cell when export in Excel

    Dear Tech guys,
    I use VS 2008 with VB and CR 2008.
    Crystal report, and export in PDF are OK, but when i export the report in Excel, i have the bellow problems.
    The report is a delivery note with 7 columns and many rows.
    1. In all pages, the page numbers are lost, except from the last page.
    2. After last row, excel has a very big in height (height > 300) row. Because of this, excel creates a new empty page and at the bottom of the new page i see the page number (Page 5 of 5).
    Can you help me with this problem??
    I have this problem after the last update (Service Pack 3).
    Visual Studio 2008: 9.030729.1 SP 1
    Crystal Reports 2008: 12.3.0.601
    Thank you in advance.

    Dear all good morning from Greece.
    First of all, i like to thank you for your quick respond.
    Dear Ludek Uher,
    1. Yes, this is from a .NET (3.5) application with VB.
    2. I do the export via code.
    3. From the CR designer i have the same problem.
    Dear David Hilton,
    The photo, is not working.
    I found the option "On Each Page" from the CR designer and i changed it. Now i get the page number on every page but i can see that something is wrong with the page height and with the end of the page of the report.
    I will try to show you the problem of the Excel file, after the option "On Each Page":
    Header........................
                      Field1     field2    field3 ......
    row1 .......
    row2 ......
    row3.....
    row56 ......
    {end of page 1}
    {new page 2}
    row57
    row58
    row59
    Page 1 of 4 (the footer of the first page must be in the first page, but it shown in the second page)
    row60
    row61
    row62
    {end of page 2}
    {new page 3}
    row110
    row111
    row112
    Page 2 of 4 (the footer of the second page must be in the second page, but it shown in the third page)
    row140
    row141
    row142
    {end of page 3}
    {new page 4}
    and go on.....
    I hope this helped.
    If i change the margins from Page Break Preview in Excel, the pages are OK. So i thing that something conflicts with the end of the page. The report does not understand the end of the page.
    If there is a way to send you the file or screen shots, please tell me how.
    Thank you in advance again.

  • AC3 audio is VERY low compared to apples menu presets

    AC3 audio is VERY low compared to apples menu presets,
    The original aiff files are at a good level, concert footage professionally recorded, nothing peaking, nothing too low.
    THe AC3 is at minus 10DB on the vu meter, the aiff peaks at 100.
    The apple menu music, which are .mov files, peek at plus 1-2.
    My old version of compressor did not do this.
    I do not have enough room on my disk for all AIFF but I do want to use the Apple Menus and provided music.
    Any thoughts?

    You can increase the Ac 3 "reference level" to 0 dB (it should be -27 dB)
    Reference level? There is no such thing - I believe you are referring to Dialog Normalization, and it is extremely unwise to set this to zero... it is most certainly not a good way of increasing the overall volume of the file. -27 happens to be the application's default value, but it in no way means it should be set to -27. There are a few factors you need to consider when using AC3 encoding...
    The DNV setting is the amount of attenuation that the file will get, according to a formula:
    attenuation = 31 + DNV setting
    Therefore if you set the DNV to be 0 you will alter all AC3 streams by 31 Db, which is enough to make it unplayable without serious distortion:
    0 = 31 + (-31)
    If you want to get the exact same audio levels out of A.Pack (or Compressor 2, if you are using that) then your DNV setting should be set to -31. This means there is absolutely NO attenuation to the file, meaning you get the same levels out as went in...
    What I recommend here is to edit the audio in an application such as Peak and get it sounding exactly as you want it. When you encode to AC3 set the DNV to -31 and set the compression to 'none' (not film standard or anything else, there's nothing worse than badly applied compression). These settings then give you a basic output which is nearer to what you start off with. The other setting much talked about is RF Overmodulation protection. This is useful to turn on if you think the player will be sending the output signal to an RF input on a TV rather than through scart or something else. It certainly used to be the case that such signals were boosted by 11db, causing overmodulation. The setting is a way of preventing that hapening, but as more and more folk have stopped using RF as an input it makes sense to turn it off. If in doubt, turn it on, but listen to the output file and see if it is acceptible.
    As for the basic bitrate, for a stereo file, lower it to no less than 192kbps.
    Now, if you want to run a few tests, then keep all the settings above and encode the same 10 second piece of audio. Change the DNV to -31, then -20, then -8 and then 0 and play the resulting files back and listen to what happens each time.
    Head over to http://www.macprovideo.com and download some of the tutorials there for A.Pack. They have been created by Martin Sitter (who has helped and guided me more than once) and will give you a far better understanding of AC3 encoding than anything else I can think of. You will pay for them, but it is a wise investment if you are at all unsure of how to get the best audio onto your discs. Let's face it, audio accounts for at least 2/3rds of the experience when watching TV - it is as well to get it right.

  • What is the easiest way to create and manage very big forms?

    I need to create a form that will contain few hundred questions. Could you please give me some advise on what is the easiest way to do that? I mean for example is it easier to create everything in Word (since it is easier to manage) and than create a form based on that?
    My concern is that when I will have a very big form, containing different kinds of questions and with many scripts, managing it during work will be slow and difficult, for example adding a question in the middle of the form which would require moving half of the questions down which could smash the layout etc.
    What is the best practise for that?
    Thanks in advance

    Try using Table and Rows for this kind of forms. These forms will have the same look throught with a question and and answer section..
    In the future if you want to add a new section, you can simply add rows in between..
    Thanks

  • Improve the performance in stored procedure using sql server 2008 - esp where clause in very big table - Urgent

    Hi,
    I am looking for inputs in tuning stored procedure using sql server 2008. l am new to performance tuning in sql,plsql and oracle. currently facing issue in stored procedure - need to increase the performance by code optmization/filtering the records using where clause in larger table., the requirement is Stored procedure generate Audit Report which is accessed by approx. 10 Admin Users typically 2-3 times a day by each Admin users.
    It has got CTE ( common table expression ) which is referred 2  time within SP. This CTE is very big and fetches records from several tables without where clause. This causes several records to be fetched from DB and then needed processing. This stored procedure is running in pre prod server which has 6gb of memory and built on virtual server and the same proc ran good in prod server which has 64gb of ram with physical server (40sec). and the execution time in pre prod is 1min 9seconds which needs to be reduced upto 10secs or so will be the solution. and also the exec time differs from time to time. sometimes it is 50sec and sometimes 1min 9seconds..
    Pl provide what is the best option/practise to use where clause to filter the records and tool to be used to tune the procedure like execution plan, sql profiler?? I am using toad for sqlserver 5.7. Here I see execution plan tab available while running the SP. but when i run it throws an error. Pl help and provide inputs.
    Thanks,
    Viji

    You've asked a SQL Server question in an Oracle forum.  I'm expecting that this will get locked momentarily when a moderator drops by.
    Microsoft has its own forums for SQL Server, you'll have more luck over there.  When you do go there, however, you'll almost certainly get more help if you can pare down the problem (or at least better explain what your code is doing).  Very few people want to read hundreds of lines of code, guess what's it's supposed to do, guess what is slow, and then guess at how to improve things.  Posting query plans, the results of profiling, cutting out any code that is unnecessary to the performance problem, etc. will get you much better answers.

  • Database Log File becomes very big, What's the best practice to handle it?

    The log of my production Database is getting very big, and the harddisk is almost full, I am pretty new to SAP, but familiar with SQL Server, if anybody can give me advice on what's the best practice to handle this issue.
    Should I Shrink the Database?
    I know increase hard disk is need for long term .
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Finke,
    Usually the log file fills up and grow huge, due to not having regular transaction log backups. If you database is in FULL recovery mode, every transaction is logged in Transaction file, and it gets cleared when you take a log backup. If it is a production system and if you don't have regular transaction log backups, the problem is just sitting there to explode, when you need a point in time restore. Please check you backup/restore strategy.
    Follow these steps to get transactional file back in normal shape:
    1.) Take a transactional backup.
    2.) shrink log file. ( DBCC shrinkfile('logfilename',10240)
          The above command will shrink the file to 10 GB.(recommended size for high transactional systems)

    "NEVER SHRINK DATA FILES", shrink only log file
    3.) Schedule log backups every 15 minutes.
    Thanks

  • Optimize delete in a very big database table

    Hi,
    For delete entries in database table i use instruction:
    Delete from <table> where <zone> = 'X'.
    The delete take seven hours (the table is very big and  <zone> isn't an index)
    How can i optimize for reduce the delete time.
    Thanks in advance for your response.
    Regards.

    what is the size of the table and how many lines are you going to delete?
    I would recommend you to delete only up to 5000 or 10000 records in one step.
    do 100 times.
    select *
              from
              into table itab.
              where
              up to 10.000 records.
    if ( itab is initial )
      exit.
    endif.
    delete ... from table itab.
    commit work.
    If this is still too slow, than you should create a secondary index with zone.
    You can drop the index after the deletion is finished.

  • How do i open a VERY big file?

    I hope someone can help.
    I did some testing using a LeCroy LT342 in segment mode. Using the
    Labview driver i downloaded the data over GPIB and saved it to a
    spreadsheet file. Unfortunately it created very big files (ranging from
    200MB to 600MB). I now need to process them but Labview doesn't like
    them. I would be very happy to split the files into an individual file
    for each row (i can do this quite easily) but labview just sits there
    when i try to open the file.
    I don't know enough about computers and memory (my spec is 1.8GHz
    Pentium 4, 384MB RAM) to figure out whether if i just leave it for long
    enough it will do the job or not.
    Has anyone any experience or help they could offer?
    Thanks,
    Phil

    When you open (and read) a file you usually move it from your hard disk (permanent storage) to ram.  This allows you to manipulate it in high speeds using fast RAM memory, if you don't have enough memory (RAM) to read the whole file,  you will be forced to use virtual memory (uses swap space on the HD as "virtual" RAM) which is very slow.  Since you only have 384 MB of RAM and want to process Huge files (200MB-600MB) you could easily and inexpensively upgrade to 1GB of RAM and see large speed increases.  A better option is to lode the file in chunks looking at some number of lines at a time and processing this amount of data and repeat until the file is complete, this will be more programming but will allow you to use much lass RAM at any instance.
