Reduce size of all buttons in a menu???

Hi,
In an iDVD '09 project, I want to reduce the size of the buttons in my scene selection menu.
How do I get them ALL to reduce to the same size together?
Thank you.

I want to reduce the size of the buttons in my scene selection menu
The only way I can think of doing this is to use the same number of characters (including spaces if needed) for the text in each button.

Very large file 1.6 GB..sports program for school. lots of photos, template where media spots saved and dropped photos in..trying to get it to printer swho says its too large but when reduces size loses all quality...HELP??

Please help...large file my sons Athletic program. Had noto problem with Quality last year..this new printer said file is too large..too many layers, can I FLATTEN..He reduced size and photos look awful. It is 81 pages. Have to have complete before next friday!! Help anyone??

At that size it sounds like you have inserted lots of photos at too large a size and resolution.
Especially for a year book style project, first determine your image sizes and crop and fix the resolution to 300 dpi, then drag them into the publication. Pages does not use external references to files and rapidly grows to quite large size unless you trim and size your images before placement.

Reduce size of all items and text

I have 2 30-page A4 booklets in which I want to reduce everything by about 15% to increase white space by widening the top and outside margins. The booklets include text and some images, all of which I want to reduce proportionally. I thought of increasing the page size then somehow reducing the PDFs, but I don't know if this is possible.
I need to hand over simple PDFs and can't ask the printers to print them out to a different size (it''s complicated, but I can't rely on them to do this correctly)
Any ideas?

Your best bet is probably to import either the .indd you have, or a PDF made from it, into a new doc, scaling and postioning in the new size and spot.
You'll find a nifty script that I think can automate this for you at http://indesignsecrets.com/zanelli-releases-multipageimporter-for-importing-both-pdf-and-i ndd-files.php

New update changed menu size and now have to scroll to see all. Reducing size of menu

The new update has changed the menu size of tool bars and any menu screen opened. Now have to scroll down and sideways to look at it. Can not fit to the screen.
How do you change the resolution of the menu boxes and tool bars?
My screen resolution is 1920x1080
The menu/tool bars font size I can read from a mile away.
Everything was fine until the update.
I'm running windows 8.1 pro with all the latest updates installed.
Even when opening Adobe the screen showing open what use to be small and take about 1/4 screen. now it takes the whole screen and only just fit on the screen.
I can not find anywhere to adjust display size of the tool bars and menus.
Does anyone know how to overcome the very large displaying of all tool bars and menus in the latest release?

Sorry Adobe Acrobat XI
This shows the size of tool bars to the actual program. They use to fit on the screen.
This shows the preferences box extend to the right under the windows task bar and to close down or select anything under the task bar I have to grab and slide it side ways.
This shows the setup crop box extending off the bottom of the screen and there is no way to scroll down or to grab and move the box up so the controls I cant get to (OK or Cancel or page range etc)
Before the update all boxes and menus fitted on the screen

Only the first page is printed reduced as setup. All pages afterward are full size with information cut off. Recent problem. Can print from Safari just fine. How can I get all pages to be reduced size?

As this is the forum for PPC (pre-2006, non Intel) iMacs I assume that is what you have.
Try pairing the remote again:

The side menu that had the iCloud "download all" button in it is gone and I can't get it back?

This is my first Mac. I have iTines 12. I signed in to iTunes and I was going to download each song that was in the cloud by individually clicking on it, but noticed in the side menu that there was an icloud button that could download all my stuff in the cloud at once. I went to click it and double click or something and the menu turned into it's own window. I didnt like it so I closed out both itunes iwndows, quit itunes and restarted it and the menu with the Icloud download all button has not returned. My brother swears I'm making it up, haha. Ive tried everything!

Hey There daniellaaaaaa,
First of all, congratulations on your new Mac! Like most people, one of the first things you want to do is to get all of your music from your old computer into the new one.
The article below explains how to do that. My personal preference is the suggestion to back up your old iTunes library to an external drive first. This is preferable to downloading only your iTunes Store purchases from iTunes in the Cloud.
I'll provide information for both scenarios below for you:

Did Lion's iTunes remove the video menu options to increase size and reduce size?

Did Lion's iTunes remove the video menu options to increase size and reduce size?
Is the ability to shrink or expand the video window from a menu item now really gone?

Itunes has not changed in Lion in this regard, you can still go to fullscreen from the menu, and use your input device to make the video window larger and smaller. does that help?

How do I reduce the size of all elements in a Motion project proportionately and simultaneously?

I have created a complex Motion project with many elements. Does anyone know how to reduce the size of all elements proportionately and simultaneously in order to shrink this down to a corner logo? Thanks

Sure.
In the Layers pane, IF all of your layers are already in a single Group (if you're really a beginner, then you probably just have the one group), all you need to do is select the Group "layer" containing your design elements and clone it (type - k) -- you'll get a new layer in a new group if it's a top level group of the project called Clone Layer. (If you have more than one group, select all of them --- however, if there is an FCPX Placeholder-drop-zone-looking-layer with a label like Effect Source or Title Background, don't select that -- you'll need to command-click select just the layers that make up your logo design). [You can alternately select *everything* and command click the layers you do not want to include in the Clone.]
Creating a clone of anything in no way changes that object or objects. A clone is like a composite viewer for objects/layers -- like a tv screen is to broadcast signals...
Uncheck the Cloned Group (or selected objects - if still selected, unchecking one will uncheck all of the selected layers) to inactivate it (this will not affect the clone visibility.)
Select the Clone Layer.
Use the Properties > Transform tools to scale and position the clone layer (changing the blend mode to something like hard light, overlay or similar, and adjusting the opacity makes for a nice "watermark" [corner logo]).
HTH (hope it's clear enough!)

Email button "actual size" attaches reduced size

I recently noticed that when I use the "email button" in iphoto to email a photo and select "actual size" it ends up creating an email with the photo at a reduced size, however this does not happen when I attach photos using the photo browser button in Apple Mail. For instance I attached a 4.5 MB image directly from iphoto using the email button the image in the email ended up being 2.3 MB even though I selected actual size. I then opened Apple Mail and composed a new message, I selected the same photo with the photo browser button, dragged and dropped it and it attached at actual size. Is there any way to attach at actual size using the iphoto email button?

LN,
Thanks for the info. When I email the photo via the iphoto email button and select actual size, actual size is also selected in the email and the file size is still reduced. In addition the size reduction varies from email to email. For instance if I try to send the same 4.5 MB photo from iphoto it may make it 2.3 MB in one email and 3.0 MB in another, both times actual size was selected in iphoto and the email? Any ideas? Thanks again!

Can I use Organizer to change the .jpg size of all photos in a folder in one batch process?

We're using wa-a-ay too much disk space for a growing photo collection. My daughter is a camera freak with four kids -- need I say more?
In my current test folder the sizes of the original photos range from 2.3 MB to 4.2 MB. I picked one photo at random and printed the original and then three more, saved by PSE9 as .jpg files at maximum, middle, and minimum quality settings on plain letter-size paper, and again on 4x6 photo paper. It takes a magnifying glass and a calibrated eyeball to detect a difference on the plain paper, and it's even more difficult on the photo paper. I think I should relieve the pressure on the hard drive's capacity by reducing everything to a more reasonable size; after all, the minimum-quality print takes up less than one percent of the disk space as does the maximum-quality print.
I have a hunch that I can accomplish this in a batch process with Organizer, but that's all I have is the hunch -- not the know-how. I would like someone to step me through the process.
I also expect a lecture on why I shouldn't do this. Go for it; I'll listen.
Thanks, Bud

You are the one to judge... Will you regret it if you want to use some pictures with the original size and resolution at a later time?
Yes, you can use either the organizer or the 'process multiple files' command of the editor. But first you should think about two questions:
- Are you ready to backup the full resolution and size files before the 'shrinking'? External USB drives with big capacities are available and affordable.
- From what you are saying, the optimal size would be for files resized for 4" x 6" format at 300 ppi in jpeg quality 8 to 10.
Resizing from the Editor: Use the 'process multiple files' command and click the 'Same as source' button. I would not do it without a sound backup first... This can be done folder by folder.
Resizing from the Organizer : Use the 'Export' command. That command leaves the original and puts the resulting files in a new folder. The resulting files are NOT included in the catalog.This means that keeping your organization (categories, albums, tags...) will be tricky; same if you are using a folder organization system.
Another solution with a third party software such as Faststone photo resizer:
- Absolutely do a full backup before
- run the resizing options in the external software so that the files are resized without being moved. That replaces the originals.
- If you are using the organizer, your organization will be kept, but the file sizes in the catalog and thumbnail databases will be wrong. You can regenerate the thumbnail cache by deleting the thumbs.5.cache file in your catalog folder; it will be automatically rebuilt.
That has worked for me in the past... no guarantee for you!

Reducing size of PDF not working

Does anyone know why when trying to reduce a PDF by selecting Save As then choosing Reduced Size PDF wouldn't work on certain documents. I did several PDFs and it worked fine.
I have a bunch more that are over 1 MB and are too big to be emailing so I need to make them smaller. Some appeared to work but the size didn't change others I get a box that pops up with a Conversion Warning... An error was encountered while saving the document.
Thanks

Try File menu >Save As... > Otimized PDF
When Optimizer open click Fonts Tab.
See how many copies of each font style (Bold. Italic, Bold Itallic, etc) yu have.
Remove all copies except one (example if you have 5-6 copies of Helvetica Italic which is frequently Possible) remove all copies except one.
I seen cases in PDF I have created where had as many as 6-7 copies of the same font version in the same PDF and maybe multiple font versions often reducing the size by as much as 75%. (Not usually But havehad it happen.)
Also click on the Tab for pictures unless you plan on printing a business report, 200dpi/ppi is the most you should use.
Save as a slightly different version. Open new version and check the size.

How do I find the total size of all my Music in iTunes 11?

I'm looking to get a new iPod, either a nano or Touch, so I'm trying to find the total size of all of my Music. Since iTunes 11's interface is so different from previous versions, I don't see a way to view that.

Ctrl B to show top menu
View Show Status Bar to show the grey bar at the bottom with the info you want.

How to reduce size or compress PDF files?

Hi guys,
Does someone knows if there is a way to reduce the size of the PDF file with good quality even on Pictures and Scanned documents? I know the option 'export', 'quartz filter' 'reduce size', but the compression is so extrem. Many files can't not been read, the quality is so bad. Is there a additional app, software or extension that let the user play with the compression on pdf files and let it be more personalized like the dopdf V7 available for windows? i am very dissapointed with this. Please help or suggestion. I will appreciate it. Thanks

I have used the excellent PDF Toolkit app for a while, and its preformed well. Occassionaly it makes the document into a negative image...which Im noyt sure why...
Mathishk, im trying your online version out, and am impressed and admire the fact that you have done this.
Well done.
A TRICK i use often. Once all hires images are on the designed document - and its coming in at 15-20mb, just change the link to the images so they are 'missing' then make a pdf.
i.e 'Hi Res images' to HRes images - old'
The screen resolution of images is still great, but file comes in at fraction of the size.
You 'trick' the document to use screen images only. So my 18mb file comes in as 5.2mb.
Just remember to change the images folder name back, so files relink.

When I click on the "import all" button when downloading my photos I get a message that states that the format is unrecognizable. What caused this and how do I change it so I can import my photos?

I am trying to download photos from my digital camera. I have done this many times before with this same camera; however this time when I click the "import all" button I get a message that states that the format is unrecognizable. It doesn't specify what the format is.
What is causing this and how do I correct it? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Aimee

Make a temporary, backup copy of the library and try the following:
launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
select the options identified in the screenshot.
Click to view full size
Launch iPhoto and try importing again.
