Pdf seems slow to redraw on ipad

Hi,
I've developed a portfolio pdf that's portrait and for ipad viewing – approx 60 pages. I want to keep the res high so there's some zooming capability for when clients want to see the finer detail.
Problem I am having is once saved out of Indesign (and have tried various way and settings) and dowloaded through acrobat reader on ipad 3 I am experiencing a redraw issue.
Approx 3 to 5 seconds to load a page after a swipe to go next. Then when zoom in takes while to sharpen and blurs or even not show page content until screen moved or touched to refresh.
I use it to sit and go through my work with clients on a one-to-one basis but busier creative directors just like to quickly flick through pages as know what they are looking for.
With the redraw and sometimes having to move or touch the device to get it to render as blank looks a bit unthoughabout and awkward which wasn't a way i'd like to sell myself.
It could be so good and get good comments when people see but the glitches are a big down side.
I have this same pdf saved at ipad size that I can view on iPhone 5 (through reader app) and it's pretty perfect and instant page turn.
Any suggestions or settings that will give me excellent res and more instant content rather than white pages for 4 seconds?? Would be appreciated.
Have tried flattening layers of PSD's and jpeging in Photoshop then reimporting in indesign as well as lower res flat files and also screen settings and 144dpi images. Nothing seems to solve.
Likewise tried interactive and print res. Print res a better result.

  • Slow gui redraws in timeline panel

    Hi everyone,
    After Effects is an absolute pleasure working with and it is one of the most used Softwares in our Animation Studio.
    As compositing lead I'd like to ask a performance related question, that would greatly improve our speed.
    We work on Workstations, that apart from single core performance are quite fast as I would think. (see above)
    Working in the timeline panel with dozents (hundrets) of layers though is quite slow and laggs when the left part (with all the text, blendmodes etc) has to be redrawn.
    Interestingly it is not the amount of layers that is crucial: Havin 50 Layers is as slow as having 200 Layers. The amount that is shown slows the redraw down.
    Turning off columns eg layer colors, blendmodes, etc speeds up the redraw considerably, but is not an option since its slows or workflow. Decreasing the size of the panel speeds it up considerably, but we need the overview.
    Now I would think the graphics cards we have are quite top tier and suspect opengl performance would be the crucial factor here. Though I also read somewhere these redraws are  dependent on cpu single-core performance.
    My question now is quite simple: I would think redrawing gui or parts of it even if there are lots of texts and buttons on it would be feasable and fast on such systems. Is there something we can do to improve the performance? Loosing parts of seconds and seconds everytime we scroll or click on layers adds up to a lot of time (and ultimately frustration ;-) )
    Looking forward to your replies!
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Hi Szalam,
    We dont have the cards in the same workstation. I meant we have both type of cards on different systems. Both have the lags.
    I am talking about split second lags .. when i scroll up and down for example, it updates the panel every half second or so.
    When there are only few layers in the timeline panel it updates it instantaneously and probably dozents of times per second. (selecting, expanding, etc)
    Timeline panels refreshing every half second doesnt seem like much of a lag, but makes working on large comps quite unprecise in our experience ;-)
    Actually this thread I found states our problem exactly (though no solution):
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5300130
    One thing I noticed is that one cpu-core goes up to a hundred percent when scrolling the timeline on large (simple!) comps. Is this the problem, that the updates cant be calculated fast enough by the cpu? We also have workstations with single-core speeds of 3,6ghz, they have the same problem... mh
    Thank you!

  • Slow screen redraw when I click playhead and zoom out in Logic 9 upgrade

    The arrange mode is slow to redraw when I click the playhead in the ruler area and drag up (zoom out). The slider thingy at the bottom of the screen works totally fast like normal. I just upgraded to Logic 9 (v 9.1.1). Might this be a known problem or is it coincidental? Any tips?
    Also, it seems to be hang only when zooming out to the bird's eye view. Zooming in seems to be fast as ever.
    Thanks!

    Calendar, Safari, address book, pages, numbers and sometimes, ProTools
    Depending on what those programs are doing (e.g., how many windows they have open), they could be consuming a lot of resources. Activity Monitor is a good way to get a handle on this.
    I don't think the problem has anything to do with your Magic Mouse.
    As a test, I would try a new user account. Create a new OS X user account (in System Preferences/Accounts). Login as that user (via Apple Menu > Log Out). Same problem?
    which keybaord commands do you use?
    Mostly these:
    ⌃⌥← Zoom Horizontal Out
    ⌃⌥→ Zoom Horizontal In
    ⌃⌥↑ Zoom Vertical Out
    ⌃⌥↓ Zoom Vertical In
    Z Toggle Zoom to fit Selection or All Contents
    I like how Pro Tools has R & T
    I think that's basically the equivalent of the two Zoom Horizontal commands.
    I thought Logic only has the zoom shortcut via cmd something or other and clicking.
    That's also useful. Hold down ⌃⌥ and drag over an area of interest. When you release the mouse, you zoom in. To zoom back out, do ⌃⌥-click in the background area.

  • First page only when opening PDF (interactive) in Adobe Reader on iPad.

    Hi,
    I am having trouble opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader on iPad.
    All software is up to date.
    I created the interactive document in InDesign CS6.
    Due to the fact that InDesign cannot export directly to PDF when you want to keep certain functions such as 'Go to page', I used the workaround of exporting to .swf file, loading this in Adobe Acrobat Pro, and exporting as PDF from there.
    The PDF is fully functional and works perfectly on Mac and PC.
    I added the Adobe Reader app to iPad.
    I opened the iPad in iTunes on the Mac, went to the Adobe Reader app, and added the PDF.
    The PDF shows up in Adobe Reader on the iPad.
    Upon opening the PDF, only the first page shows, and none of the buttons work. The file size is correct and so the whole file 'should' be showing.
    Whats going wrong?
    Does Adobe Reader for iOS allow interactive PDFs?
    Also, on a side note, I tried first adding the PDF's using Dropbox, but the 'share' icon in the Dropbox App did not update to include 'Adobe Reader' as an option, having installed Adobe Reader App. It should be there, shouldn't it?
    Hope you can help!
    Thanks,
    Zeen

    Thanks Steve, but I had tried GoodReader earlier and that made no difference. This led me to think that it was something to do with what functions I was trying to have in my interactive file rather than limitations of a PDF reader App.
    It is a bit disappointing, however, that Adobe's own app doesn't support interactive PDFs!
    What I have now done is using InDesign CS6 Folio Builder panel and DPS to convert my interactive document into a .folio. I signed up to acrobat.com and then I was able to upload the .folio to my DPS cloud. On the iPad, I downloaded Adobe Content Viewer (care when searching the app store it's actually called Adobe® Content Viewer). Next I opened the App and it did a sync with my DPS cloud and now the PDF works with full interactivity on my iPad.
    It was free to publish a personal-use .folio using the DPS Folio Producer. ^_^
    I think that I might have been better from the outset creating my  document in InDesign, then exporting as high quality print PDF to Acrobat to add buttons and functionality (instead of creating the  buttons etc. in InDesign itself), then I have a feeling GoodReader would  have been able to read that PDF fine. Regardless, today I created my first working .folio file and have learned a new skill in Adobe =]
    The only problem I'm now having is that some of the images in the .folio are poor quality (I think ones that were link files to the original InDesign CS6 document), however this is not for this forum.
    I wonder if anyone else has been trying to do the same as me. What was your method, if successful?
    Ciao,

  • Why doesn't my pdf files that are on my iPad show up on my iMac or mac book pro

    Why doesn't my pdf files that are on my ipad show up on my imac or macbook?

    Have you copied them from your iPad ? If you are using the 'sync collections' setting then that doesn't copy items between devices/computers, all it does is if you move a book/PDF into a collection on one device/computer then if that book/PDF is also on your other device(s)/computer(s) then it will be moved into the same collection on them.
    If you connect the iPad to the computer that you sync it to and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases then it should copy them over to your Mac's iTunes (that should copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks) - in the iBooks app on your Mac you might then need to do File > Move Books From iTunes to move them over to it.

  • PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?

    PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?
    Before iBooks for Mac came along I simply dragged my PDF to iTunes and synced my iPad. I foolishly installed Mavericks and iBooks on my Mac.
    Now I have no idea how to drop PDF's to my iPad.
    There is a support article but no helpful at
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4227?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    What must I do? I simply want Apple drag 'n drop functionality back please.

    You should be able to add the PDF to the iBooks app on your Mac via File > Add To Library, and if you then connect your iPad to your Mac and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes then it should show on the iPad's Books tab for syncing to your iPad's iBooks app.
    Or you can email the PDF to yourself and use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPad to copy it into the iBooks app.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Slow screen redraw when I click playhead and zoom out

    The arrange mode is slow to redraw when I click the playhead and zoom out. The slider thingy at the bottom of the screen works totally fast like normal. I just upgraded to Logic 9. Might this be a known problem or is it coincidental? Any tips?

    Thanks for your reply.
    I am using Logic 9.1.1. on Snow Leopard. Upon installing Logic 9 recently, I noticed that the seemless screen redraws ( from extreme close up to extreme zoom out) takes over five separate attempts. it's like there's only so much video power to do it one shot like I used to.
    To be clear, let's say I'm very zoomed into a region editing an vocal comp track. Then I want to zoom out to see the whole project from start to finish. I click the playhead in the global tracks area. Then I push up and it shrinks the project to fit the screen. The problem is that it only goes so far before I have to release the mouse where it is and then try another run at it.
    Here's a self-answer:
    My feeling is that Logic has made it a more exacting science of how to manipulate the zoom in and out with the playhead. I actually feel it's faster now, you just have to stay within certain limits and not take your mouse and go too far up into the shorcuts area like I was used to in Logic 8. You have to stay within the global tracks area and your horizontal movements will be very fast actually and very smooth.
    Happy music making

  • All Email seems slow since 4S (not just iCloud mail)

    Ever since I upgraded from my 4 to a 4s all my email seems slow.
    This includes my former mobileme email as well as an exchange server from work.
    For example right now I am looking at an email on my phone that shows as "new" even through I deleted the email from my computer 2 hours ago via mail.app and exchange. I also have sent myself email at this address from my phone and it shows no problem going through but never show up in the other account.
    mobileMe has a smiliar problem but it sometimes doesn't even want to send. I have no confidence I am getting all my emails into my mobile me account. I know at least one person said they got an invalid address when using my @mac.com address, but others seem to have worked fine.
    Anyone else having this issue?

    Solved my problem by loging out from iTunes store and loging back in...
