Hi,
Are you facing the issue with any pdf file?
Please try updating Acrobat to 11.0.7 and check.
You might also want to repair Acrobat and see.

Reduce File Size doesn't work!

When I click the (new) option 'Reduce File Size' in Keynote '09 the app prompts a estimated new size which is smaller than the current size. When I click on 'Reduce' the app doesn't do anything except for showing an error report which tells me something like: "..the file size was not reduced", for all of the files included. They are just regular .jpg/.png and .psd files. Did anyone else notice this bug..?

I'd say if it is a very large file with multiple large images, it might not be actually freezing, just taking its sweet time.
It's why I leave Activity Monitor running when I use iWork applications.
This way, I know ifd the app is dead or if it's heavily busy.
Either that or it has nothing to do. It trims and reduces the resolution of bitmap images to 72dpi. There will be a fair bit of work if you have transparency in the document.
It doesn't do a very good job IMHO and to reduce the file by 90% is a big ask.
The 'Reduce FileSize' feature isn't linked to the 'export to PDF' feature.
As explained, before applying "Reduce file size" it's good practice to "Reduce Image File Size".
This will drop the parts of the pictures which aren't displayed.
The asked task doesn't imply a reduction of the pictures by 90%.
As I already wrote several times, it's more efficient to crop images to the really used area *_before inserting them in a Pages document_*.
A Pages document is huge by nature because the Index.xml file describing its contents is highly verbose.
If the document was saved with the 'embed Preview.pdf' feature active, the size of this PDF is adding a lot of used space.
I'd print to pdf and reduce the quality in Acrobat Pro.
Most of us don't own Acrobat Pro.
I feel that it would be a bit silly to buy an application whose price is : 450$ as a complement for a 80$ set of applications.
Before doing that, I would
(a) crop pictures before inserting them
(b) try to enhance Pages behaviour for free installing enhanced PDF filters.

Why is "Reduce File Size" in the "File" menu always disabled?

I have a rather large presentation file, about 100Mbyte, and Keynote has become almost impossible to use, because it has become so slow.
Have to wait about 5 seconds for each letter to appear on screen after typing! Almost impossible to use Keynote under these conditions.
So I tried to use "Reduce File Size" to reduce the presentation file size by compressing the images, but "Reduce File Size" is always disabled!
Anybody else having such problems?
Gerhard

OK, sounds like memory will be fine, so let's look at some other stuff...
Is it only one particularly keynote presentation that slows up for you, or does keynote behave in the same way even if you start from scratch and create a new presentation?
If it's just the one presentation then there's probably some content (possibly video) within it that KN takes exception to. Sometimes a single problematic slide or piece of content can slow down the whole app.
Is the problematic presentation one that was imported from Powerpoint? If so, import it again and look carefully at the import error/warning logs.
Before you start keynote, start up activity monitor - which will give you an indication of what programs are using all the CPU/memory/disk bandwidth etc. You'll then have an idea of whether it is KN maxing out on CPU or whether anything else is dragging the system down.
Another thing you could try would be to log in to a different user account on your machine (create one if necessary) and then try opening the presentation from within this different account. If this works for you then it suggests a problem with the keynote plist file in your original user account.
I don't know if it'd be acceptable to you, but if you could post a link to your problematic presentation then I could download it and try it out on my normally reliable Keynote on one of my computers. (Make sure that you've ticked the box to embed all media in the presentation)
Hope some of this is helpful,
Mike.

Hi,
First get the backup piece size its trying to allocate for file "/home/oracle/DBBACKUP/Oracle10g1/Full_Backup/DB_Backup_201401128366598241"
= 12839996*16384
= 210370494464/1024/1024/1024
=195.9GB
Its trying to allocate ~196GB for the file.
1. Make sure the RMAN backup piece won’t exceed the O/S permitted filesize limit.
2. But we can restrict the RMAN backup piece using the MAXPIECESIZE option.
You restricted it to 120GB but actual requirement to allocate backup piece file is ~196GB.
I think you need to change the MAXPIECESIZE and give it a try.
Please update if it succeeded or failed.
Thanks & Regards,
Gayu

Reducing file size #2...Preview, Quartz Filter vs Adobe Pro Optimize

Questions on reducing a pages to pdf file…I will post each question seperatly.
2) I read that you can reduce file size of a pdf in preview with a quartz filter. I created my own filer and it worked as expected. But, I also have Adobe Acrobat Pro, with save as PDF Optimized. The pro seems to have much more capability than the quartz filters.
Is one better that the other to use? The adobe optimize (standard settings) took it from 20 to 6 megs.
THanks, Bob

The Adobe Acrobat settings you chose are probably using .jpeg to reduce the file size.
.jpegs are lossy. ie You lose detail and sharpness the more you compress the image.
The Quartz filters are usually of very high quality, but they are a black box and you need to understand what the settings are in each one. Quartz filters are extremely powerful, fast and as I said usually high quality but I suggest you experiment and see if they meet your needs.

Reduce File Size in Acrobat Pro (9.5.5) Corrupts Graphics in PDF Documents - shows up as black image

Whenever I use Reduce File Size in Acrobat Pro (9.5.5), sometimes some of the images (not all) get corrupted and show up as a black image in the new document.
Actually, the new reduced document looks okay when viewed in Acrobat, but the problem shows up when viewed in the Preview application on the Mac.
I'm using Acrobat 9.5.5 with Mac OS 10.8.6
I've tried re-importing the graphic into a new graphic box, which didn't work. Thinking there may be some type of corruption with the actual graphic file, I then tried viewing the graphic, then taking a screenshot of it to create a completely new file, and then re-importing the new graphic file into the original document (created in Adobe In Design 5.0.4). I then export the new document as a pdf, and brought it into Acrobat Pro to do the Reduce File Size. Same thing happens - black box appears where the graphic was.
I then tried using the Reduce File Size within the Save As function of the Preview application on the Mac - while the graphic remains intact, many of the other graphics in the document are "reduced" too much, to the point where the image quality is seriously degraded, and therefore not usable.
Any other ideas?

Hi Anoop,
I can share the graphic file, but not the pdf which contains it (as it contains confidential information) - thanks!

How do you reduce file size of a PDF if Save As doesnt work?

I have been trying to reduce the size of a PDF, using the Save As > Optimized PDF method.
I have also tried Save As > Reduced Size PDF.
This is on a file made up of 20 pages of full page Jpegs. (These were generated by the script in Photoshop that generates Jpeg files from Layer Comps within the document.)
If I use Reduced Size PDF, I get a greatly reduced file size but the image quality suffers greatly. (Lots of artifacts and blurryness)
There are no options to choose the level of compression I want.
If I use Optimized PDF method, I cant seem to reduce the file size no matter what I set the Jpeg compression to.
Is there some way to cut the size of the file down but not lose so much image quality?
Any suggestions?

Part of the problem here is that the files that are produced when I run the script to output files from layer comps are very big.
If I "save for web" for each layer comp, I wind up with way smaller Jpegs. Thus a much smaller PDF.
So the question is: Can you make the script, Layer Comps to Files, create smaller more optimized Jpegs? (Like you get when you save for web)

How to set option in Scanning for Reduced File Size

I am scanning from a Fujitsu 6230 scanner in Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.4.1. My scanning options are Color, 300DPI,Letter, High Quality, with Optimization options of Custom Settings of JPEG for Color/Grayscale. The scanned files are very large...1852KB per page. After using the Reduce File Size option and selecting Acrobat 8 and later, the file size is reduced to 187K. Is there a way to preset the Acrobat 8 or later setting....rather than having to do the two-step?
Also, if I use Fujitsu's scanning interface I get far higher quality pdf's, with small file sizes, and lower scanning resolution......but without the option to append to a pdf, an option I use frequently. Apparently their program for converting the scanned image to a pdf is more robust than Adobe's. Is there a way to use their image->pdf engine within Acrobat?

Hi Boatseller,
I will put this in simple way.
Can we set properties in biztalk wcf_custom adaptor like
1. <security authenticationMode="UserNameOverTransport"
2. enableUnsecuredResponse="True"
or
includeTimestamp="false"
3. <textMessageEncoding
messageVersion="Soap11"/>
<httpsTransport/>
I am unable to find these properties in BizTalk wcf_custom adaptor properties. It will be great help if you could guide me in right direction . My problem is to receive response message into orchestration which is not having header. But the response is coming
from web service. I saw that in fiddler.
Also, If there is any steps to make these properties available in machine config, please share
Thanks in advance

Issues in Reducing file size on Acrobat 9.3.1

The text has been merged or split on Acrobat 9.3.1 Pro by using the option "Reduce File Size" or "PDF Optimizer". There is no issue in the earlier version of Acrobat (7.0 & 8.0). We are using the Mac OS between 10.4.11 to 10.6.2. I have attached screenshots for your reference; please look at the Word "Issues" has been split after reducing file size on Acrobat 9.3.1. Is there any other way to do Hi-Res PDF to Low-Res PDF without any issue? Kindly help me out to sustain the best process in future.

I found a similar problem with text styled for small caps. It was fine in the original PDF, but became lowercase in the reduced file. The reduction process probably throws away characters from fonts that Acrobat decides are unnecessary.
I was able to partially solve the problem by combining multiple PDFs (book chapters) and selecting the smallest file size icon at the bottom of the page. Alternately, I chose a web-quality preset, which also worked. The file size might not be quite as small, but the files were good.

Why can I only "Save as Other... Reduce File Size" a single time for an Adobe X file?

We are struggling with our form editing in that anytime we make a change and save the file size is doubled. As a work around we started using the ...Reduce File Size save as. However, we can only use that once per file. Some of our forms contain several hundred fields that are edited, with the behavior as is we cannot save our work as we go.
Reproduction Steps...
1. Open a file in Acrobat X and note it's file size.
2. Make any kind of change (our work is focued on View>Forms>Edit)
3. Go to File > Save as Other... > Reduce Size PDF
4. Set Version Compatability to 'Retain Existing' and Save
5. File size should be very close to the original
6. Open the new file
7. Rinse and repeat steps 2 and 3
8. Note that when you go to try to Save as the new edit, the Save As Reduce size is grayed out and no longer available for seslection.
Please help!!!!

Just do a standard Save As. The problem is that Save includes the old and new. Save As deletes the old. Also, if you distribute the form it is locked from editing as I understand it.

Reduce file size in Acrobat X

What is the best way to reduce file size? The Document menu is no longer an option. When I try to Save As... Reduced File Size or Optimized PDF, the program crashes.

We aren't Adobe. We're just users like you.
Regardless, this is something that requires Adobe Acrobat and not Adobe Reader. This is the Reader forum.

Trying to reduce file size of my opening page in a flash site

I'm using the Flash CS4 IDE, and the first page of my site takes a lot longer to load than I want it to. So I wanted to go through the varied images / symbols / movie clips / sounds and so on to see where all the memory is being chewed up.
When I go into my library, however, I can see the Name, LInkage, usecound and Type of my elements, but no mention of file size and I can't seem to find any right click menu that lets me add file size to the list of details being displayed.
Is there a way to make it show file size? Or some workaround?
And are there any best practices to reduce file size aside from using symbols for anything that's used more than once and reducing image and sound quality?
Thanks

I was actually using the term pretty loosely. I'm building a Gaia site which works by loading an Index page, then a Nav (navigation) page on top of that, and then lets you load and unload pages as necessary on top of those.
Since the Nav page never gets unloaded it's a good place to park certain content. So it's actually my Nav page that's gotten too bloated. And the coding is handled through a separate Nav.as file (so it's not the first frame of my nav.swf, it's all the varied movie clips I had to incorporate into my Nav.fla
I'm just looking for a way to identify which MovieClips & sound files (only have a couple of short ones) and other assets are taking up the most memory so I can see if I can cut those down.
Also, do unused symbols use up memory or is it only the assets you actually end up adding that count toward file size?
Thanks

Reducing file sizes of multiple PDF's

Hello everyone,
I just got hired at a structural engineering company, and we are trying to go "paperless". I am in charge of scanning tons and tons of our old record drawings. We have an old scanner and the PDF's it creates are anywhere between 10,000Kb to 70,000Kb. After I scan every sheet, I am supposed to use the "Reduce file size" option in Adobe Acrobat. I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and I always make the files compatible with 5.0, which reduces the file size by 1/6 - 1/10. I've only been able to reduce 1 sheet at a time, which again, is time consuming. Is there a way I can reduce multiple files at once? I looked online and found an article here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Standard/WS65C0A053-BC7C-49a2-88F1-B1BCD2524B68.w. html, saying that in Adobe Acrobat 9.0, I can select "Apply to multiple" to reduce multiple files. Is there a way I can do it without upgrading?
Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately, it's not possible if you're using Acrobat XI. In previous
versions you can tell an Action to ignore non-PDF files but this feature
was removed in XI. Also, 35,000 files is way too much for Acrobat to
process. You need a more robust application for such a batch processing
task.

Reduce file size of Movie Clip

My swf file is 1.3 MB. It contains a dozen 72dpi images with
alpha tweening. It is taking awhile to load. Is there a process to
follow of a free software to reduce the file size?

The proper way to reduce file size is keep your images
external and load
them on demand.
