Reduced File size at target

Hi folks,
I am getting an strange error in my scenario.
The scenario is very simple, File->XI->File.
I am using --
1. File Content Conversion in source and target CCs.
2. Multi-Mapping in MM.
The source file is 7 MB, which is not at all a very big file for PI 7.0 SP12. The message passes through the XI properly, but the file created at the target is only of 4 MB !! A lot of data is getting lost in the target file.
What and where can be the problem? Please don't send the links for the blogs on sizing and other related stuff.
Will really appreciate your inputs. Many thanks,
Neetesh

Hi Satish / Sriram,
I am reading the whole file at one go.
As I have mentioned in my query, the message passes through the XI properly. It must be somewhere after it goes of the IE and before the receiving adapter writes it to the destination.
Thanks

  • Reduce file size with action wizard

    (German version below)
    Hey,
    I got two questions for action wizard in Acrobat XI Pro.
    I try to reduze file size of many PDFs using acion wizard. My tests worked fine but now I got some problems I try to explain now:
    1. I add a directory with many subdirectorys to my process list. Adobe now adds not only PDFs to my list, it also adds JPGs, DOCs etc. That means I have to delete every single file I not want to convert to PDF cause I only want to reduce file size of excisting PDFs. Is there any possibility to only add PDFs in my processing list?
    2. If a PDF is opend by any other user I get a information about it. This info I need to acknowledge every time it pops up cause my process interrups. Is there any possibility to ignore this info?
    I´m happy for any help i can get here. Thx.
    Regards

    Hallo Leute,
    ich benötige Hilfe beim Benutzen des Aktionsassistenten im Acrobat XI Pro.
    Ich versuche bei sehr vielen PDFs die Dateigröße zu verringern. Dazu habe ich mir eine Stapelverarbeitung per Aktionsassistent erstellt die bei meiner Testumgebung auch super funktioniert. Leider habe ich noch einige Probleme für die ich Hilfe benötige:
    1. Wenn ich einen Ordner mit sehr vielen Unterordnern und verschiedenen Inhalten einfüge möchte ich eigentlich nur die PDFs verarbeiten. Leider fügt Acrobat auch alle JPGs DOCs etc. hinzu. Ich muss also alle unerwünschten Dokumente herausfiltern, da auch keine sortierung vorhanden ist. Bei mehreren Tausend Dokumenten nicht leistbar. Gibt es hier eine Möglichkeit nur PDFs in die Stapelverabeitung aufzunehmen?
    2. Sollte die Verarbeitung mal laufen kommt es hin und wieder vor das die PDFs durch einen Benutzer geöffnet sind. Ich bekommen hier eine Meldung von Acrobat die ich erst bestätigen muss bevor es weiter geht. Da das Programm eigentlich über mehrer Tage/Wochen im Hintergrund laufen soll passt mir das gar nicht wenn ich alle Stunde überprüfen muss ob die Stapelverabeitung noch läuft.
    Ich hoffe es gibt jemanden der mir helfen kann. Ich bin über jede hilfreiche Antwort glücklich.
    Gruß

    For starters, let's refer to your original post: "this is indeed a serious problem and step back in functionality..."  This statement is a quite ridiculous assertion, unnecessarily dramatic, wholly inaccurate, and unhelpful.  Your statement "is this a joke" and "I know Acrobat tends to choke...etc..." is just pure gibberish and polemical.   It is quite easy to feed any application enough data to cause a performance failure, but one would really need to question one's motive and prudent use of one's time at this point - unless you are tasked with stress and load testing the software to determine minimum working requirements.  
    'Batch Processing' is, since Acrobat 9.x, dead and gone, Acrobat 11's approach is to aggregate many hitherto unavailable tools and commands and allow the user to create custom workflows.  More interactivity has been built into the process, which may or may not be desirable in each case depending on the workflow context and requirements.  But we have obviously moved away from the concept of processing a large number of files and towards a more targeted and effective processing of smaller sets of files.  The default Actions we deliver with Acrobat 11 reflect this intention.
    The feature "Batch Processing", which was an Acrobat feature from A5 (I believe) up to A9, previously had been hidden in Menu/Advanced/Document Processing/Batch Processing has been wholly replaced by a completely overhauled framework called Actions, now part of the Tools panel, and will be immediately accessible when Tools is called in the UI.
    Thus the obscured Batch Processing may have been a tool considered and used by an extremely small set of users to do exactly that, i.e., batch process a large number of files, but had been fairly inflexible, generally speaking, and buggy.  We were very well aware that if we were to overhaul the feature, add a considerably larger number of available tools and commands in Acrobat, provide wide possibilities for customization built towards specific workflows, and bring it to the forefront, we were going to sacrifice some of the aspects of batch processing a large number of files.  Not calling it "Batch Processing" anymore - because it isn't - may be an indication of this intention.
    Personally I have used and tested Batch Processing periodically during various Acrobat projects, but I don't remember encountering the "Reduce File Size" command - which is a subset of Save and file optimization -  to use within a batch sequence.  I may be wrong, and your screen shots would be welcome here.  In fact go ahead and construct a batch sequence that (1) uses 'Reduce File Size and (2) applies file type filters to it, and post it either here or to me privately.  I would be happy to be wrong.  But regardless, we are grateful for positive input that points out defects, allows us to improve the functionality of the product, providing the intended changes are reasonable, and that the communication of said issues remain respectful of this process and of the individuals we depend upon to implement these changes.  The tone of your response comes very close to rendering a proper consideration of this issue irrelevant.

  • 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.

    Hi,
    Are you facing the issue with any pdf file?
    Please try updating Acrobat to 11.0.7 and check.

  • 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.

  • Reducing File Size

    I have a 39 page document scanned from an HP color printer that is 13MB. I'd like to reduce the file size by eliminating the color but not by reducing the resolution of the black text. There are no images. It is not clear to me how to use PDF Optimizer to reduce the size. "Reduce File Size" does nothing. I'm using Acrobat 9 Pro 9.1.0.

    That's good to know. Could you make a suggestion on how to use Preflight for this purpose? There are many options available.

  • Reducing file size produces a larger file (?)

    I have a 3.8mb pdf (created in Acrobat 9) that I'd like to reduce in size. It's text only (about 450 pages) and when I select "Reduce file size" Acrobat X goes through steps to optimize it for the web, and it comes out 5.1 mb. Not really much of a reduction in size if it's now a meg and a half larger than the original. Is there a better way to do this that I'm missing here?

    There are many things that could cause the issues. Under the Optimize option (or wherever it went in AAX) there is an audit function that allows you to see where the storage is going. You could compare before and after optimization to see what was happening. You say 450 pages is not much, but that all depends on what is there. If it is a lot of graphics, it could be huge. If you use a lot of different fonts, that can cause extra storage of all those fonts. So there are many variables and sometimes they do get bigger -- happened to me too. Unfortunately, when you are trying to make things smaller, you are often under the gun and don't have time to diddle around. Good luck.
