Takes a long time to Generate a PDF from Frame 9. Why?

It takes approximately 1 hour to generate a PDF from a 200 page Frame 9 doc (PDF file size Standard). There are lots of xrefs in the doc (more than 1500) but taking one hour to generate a PDF seems unusual. I remember the Frame 5 days when it took only minutes to generate large PDFs.

It might help to know your system configuration. I have experienced such long times for PDF creation, when using FM9 in Parallels/Win XP Pro and saving to a shared volume on the same Mac. Now we are saving all documents (including PDFs) to a server, and we're back to PDFs in minutes

  • When using photos from the "Media" option in Applescripts and other apps, it takes a LONG time to load the photos from iPhoto...

    It also happens when using the Media option in programs like iMovie. Has anyone found a solution for this problem?

    That is long...
    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    If it is...
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there.

  • Opening PDF files in Reader itself takes a long time

    When I try opening PDF Files in Reader itself, this process takes a long time (more then 2 minutes for opening PDF files).
    When I try opening PDF Files directly from My computer, My documents: no problem (direct opening).
    Running Reader XI on Windows XP SP3.

    Hi,
    According to your description, you want to open pdf file in the Adobe Reader directly from document library.
    I suggest you do as the followings:
    1. In SharePoint Central Administration site, click Application Management->Manage Web Applications, select the web application for the site. Click Authentication
    Providers, select default zone, and select Yes for "Enable Client Integration?".
    2. click Site Settings-> Site collection features->"Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" click Activate
    3. set the default open behavior for a document library by using the document library settings page.
    4. Enable the “Adobe Arcobat SharePoint OpenDocuments Component”add-on in the IE11.
    5. Add your current site URL to the trusted web sites in IE11.
    There is a similar threads for your reference:

  • PDF documents take a long time to load on T520

    I bought my T520 this past summer and I have been happy with it, except it can take a long time to open PDF docs, between 5 and 30 seconds.  Whats up?  How can I fix this?
    My system:
    T520
    Core i7
    SSD
    4GB RAM
    Thanks for 

    Either adjust some settings or uninstall it. The issue is probably you have turned on some 'features' unknowingly. Some of the slow down are OCR, User Readibility (for the impaired eyes) etc, Adobe is trying to convert words into text to be read out?
    The other possibility is that you are opening a PDF file that has a large gigantic pictures (vector based) or that the fonts are 'special'. These take up lots of calculations. To test this, download a small PDF file and see if the slowdown still occurs. If it does, something is wrong with the internal structure of your PDF file
    My suggestion is to download the latest Adobe reader X and install this version, it's faster than the default Adobe 8 or 9 that comes with the lenovo.

  • AP Trial Balance - File is massive and takes a long time to open up

    Hello,
    We are upgrading from 11.5.10 to 12.1.3 and are running into some serioud problems with the Accounts Payables Trial Balance report in Detail Mode.
    1. The Report takes upwards of 10 minutes to open up - and in many cases does not.
    2. On further research we see that the report output file is > 500MB whereas comparable 11i Trial Balance files are only 19MB.
    3. We tried running in various formats Text, PDF, HTML with no luck.
    4. In fact HTML and Text formats gave “Authentication failed” errors when we tried to open the report.
    My questions are:
    1. Why is there a such a large increase in file size? Is this expected going to R12?
    2. Is there a way to speed up the opening of the large files or create smaller files? - (summary mode, and smaller date ranges are not options as per business needs). Even a 2 month date range give the same problems.
    3. We noticed that the XLA_TRIAL_BALANCES table has 36,521,125 records...LARGE.
    4. We compared the ap_liability_balance records between 11i and R12. We have 29,171,382 in 11i and 37,769,034 in R12. But this is expected as we purge regularly in 11i production and I don't think this difference (about 30%) in the size of the tables should cause such a large difference in the size of the report files (nearly 2000%!!!).
    5. Why are we getting Authentication failed errors? Just for these reports?
    Of course we opened an SR, but you know how SRs go :-) and this is a time critical project with our deadlines nearing.
    Any help or pointers from the experts here is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Hussein,
    Thanks for your prompt reply and my apologies for the substantial delay in mine.
    We did some trouble shooting since then.
    We repolved the problem by choosing a pdf format instead of the seeded RTF format. This opened up the output in a couple of minutes because the pdf formatted output was about 50mb vs the RTF output which was 300MB+.
    But the ORIGINAL problem still remains. The xml tagged .out file is still huge with a size of nearly 1gb!
    My earlier questions here now boil down to the following questions.
    Q1. Is the huge XML Publisher's .out file expected in R12?  It really is massive!  The text file from 11i was just 19MB
    Q2. Oracle does not seem to offer the option to format the output in plain text ...We see PDF, RTF but no plain ugly text.  I would expect plain text file to be much smaller.  How can we get the output in plain text?
    1.Yes our stats are upto date. Let me emphasize that we do not have a performance problem with the report itself. The issue we are having is opening up the output.
    2. The authentication error is resolved. It was because of formatting the reports incorrectly.
    3. We did not use the usual tuning procedures such as tkprof because we do not have a performance problem.
    4. We checked the OPP file and there are none. I reiterate, The report does complete without issues. It is just that the output takes a long time to open up in the RTF
    I will appreciate if others  can share any experiences if you have faced this situation and how you have handled it.
    Thanks in advance for your time!

    You have SCADS of extensions and the things running. McAfee, Intego, Orbicule, CleanMyMac, and others I've not ever even heard of. My first recommendation would be to remove all of these and see if things improve.

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 takes a long time to run 'X11.app' (with system log)

    Hello everyone, English is not my mother tongue so may not be exactly correct, sorry about that.
    Background:
    I have a MacBook White (13-inch, Mid 2009) that isn't unibody, and was running Leopard 10.5.
    I did a clean installation and now Snow Leopard 10.6.2, with iLife, iWork, and many many apps.
    I am the only one who will use the Mac and my user account is as the 'admin'.
    I previously had a problem concerning X11 too:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2343732
    *What I've done:*
    (1) rename my HD to 'Michaels_Home' under 'Get Info' from Finder (I can't rename in Disk Utility though)
    (2) press return (enter)
    (3) change my home folder path to the '/Volumes/Michaels_Home/Users/Michael' (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=Tips/relocate3/relocate3.ht ml)
    (4) restart
    (5) log in and open X11
    (6) problem solved!!
    ==========
    *BUT NOW* I have a problem after:
    (1) log in as the root user, and use command +ditto -V xyz xyz+ to copy my home folder from '/Volumes/Michaels_Home/Users/Michael' to '/Users>Michael'
    (2) change my home folder path to the '/Users/Michael' (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=Tips/relocate3/relocate3.ht ml)
    (3) use the Mac OS X Snow Leopard USD$29 disc to boot my Mac up
    (4) delete the 'Michaels_Home' partition (I had 3 partitions: (1) Macintosh HD (2) Michaels_Home (3) Windows XP Professional)
    (5) resize the 'Macintosh HD' partition
    (6) boot from Macintosh HD
    (7) find that there's a problem about X11
    _The problem:_
    it takes a *long time* for X11 to start.
    When I try to open the 'X11.app', the X11 icon begins jumping on the Dock, but nothing happens.
    Jumping and jumping... finally, it doesn't jump any more, with just the X11 icon on the dock.
    What's more, there is no white dot under the icon, which means the app isn't running at the moment.
    I right-clicked the icon, it shows me 'application not responding'.
    So, I open the *Activity Monitor*, and I can see there are 3 apps related to X11 are running:
    (1) X11
    (2) X11.bin
    (3) xauth
    *At the moment now, if you would wait for about 1.5 min., X11 will open.*
    Please see below for the system log (from 'FREEZING' to 'WORKING')

    So what actually causes this problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    It turns out that there's something wrong about permissions.
    Here's the fix:
    (1) log in as the +root user+
    (2) type +chown -R Michael:staff ~Michael+
    (3) log out the +root user+
    (4) log in your account
    (5) done!
    Hope this thread will help those who encounter the same problem as me!

    Hi
    Hope you have resolved this already, otherwise, generating cost collectors would mean you are allowing cots to be posted into RE-FX using Settlement units. If there are no costs to be posted with an SU, then you do not need to run RECSSS.

    Hi, original poster here. I did not realize this would generate more discussion so I never checked back. I still had my warranty, so I took it to the store and got it repaired. The original problem I had was a screen with this icon flashing when I attempted to boot it up:
    When I took it to the store, they told me that my computer was unable to communicate with the hard drive. I had this same problem three times in two months where this screen reappeared. Each time I went back to the store and they said the cause was different, but they were all hardware issues that physically made it impossible to communicate with the hard drive. After the third time, they simply replaced my laptop and I haven't had the same problem.
    So in short: The reason you can't reinstall or move anything when you encounter this screen appears to be because nothing can communicate with the hard drive in the first place. You can't reach the disk or anything on it. So I don't believe it's possible to do anything besides take it to a physical store and have it fixed.

  • In attempting a slide show in PSE 08 w/275 pics, PSE warns .. take a long time, sends me to Bridge.

    I am attempting to create my first slide show in PSE, version 08.  I have a Mac OS with 199.03 GB available.  I have selected and organized 275 photos.  When I select "PDF Slide Show" under the CREATE option, I am warned twice that it will take a long time.  Then I am sent over to Bridge where these photos appear, all organized.   Nothing happens.  Is there something going on in PSE that takes a long time and I cannot see?

    You can't do any of that in the mac version even if you have 2 photos. The so-called slideshow is basically a multipage pdf document that displays transitions as it turns pages. That's it.
    EDIT By "turns pages " I mean "changes from one page to the next".

    Follow the thread posted to generate an execution plan. Ideally you run your statement with SQL tracing enabled and run the tkprof utility on the trace file generated as outlined in the thread.
    Without further information it's just guess-work. And by the way, as already mentioned, use the TO_DATE function for DATE type literals or use the ANSI DATE literal format: DATE 'YYYY-MM-DD', otherwise you are depending on the NLS settings of the client executing the query. So:
    Could you please post an properly formatted explain plan output using DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY including the "Predicate Information" section below the plan to provide more details regarding your statement. Please use the \[code\] and \[code\] tags to enhance readability of the output provided:
    In SQL*Plus:
    SET LINESIZE 130
    EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <your statement>;
    SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY);Note that the package DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY is only available from 9i on.
    In previous versions you could run the following in SQL*Plus (on the server) instead:
    @?/rdbms/admin/utlxplsA different approach in SQL*Plus:
    SET AUTOTRACE ON EXPLAIN
    <run your statement>;will also show the execution plan.
    In order to get a better understanding where your statement spends the time you might want to turn on SQL trace as described here:
    [When your query takes too long|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=501834]
    and post the "tkprof" output here, too.

  • Filter value selection in Queries takes a long time

    Hello BW gurus....
    I have a problem here. When a user tries to run a consolidated query it takes a long time. what are some of the performance tuning that can be done. My other issue is that once the query is run and the user tries to change the filter values say hes trying to restrict Cons group it takes like 30 min for the options to come up or even more than that and eventually fails. Is there any thing which i can do to improve the performance of these filter value selection option. we are on portal EP 6.0. I know this has nothing to do with interface but the crux of the problem is in the back end.
    Any help is really appreciated
    thanks

    The Only Posted Values in Navigation generates a query that must examine most to your cube to find all filter options that correspond to your query.  If the cube is large and you don't have much in the way of other restrictions, this can take a while. The benefit of this option is that the user is only presented with filter options that are in the domain they are interested in.
    If you switch to either of the other options, the filter options are quickly deteremined by examing either the dimension or master table.  The downside is that those filter options may not be in the data the your query would exclude, e.g.
    Lets say you have a query on Bus Area and Cost Center.
    - Master Data for Cost Centers = 0001 - 9999
    - Cost Centers in your data are 0001 - 2999
    - Only Cost Centers 1000 - 1099 in Bus Area 10.
    If you have an input variable to select only Bus Area = 10 and run the query, then want to filter on Cost Center:
    - with Only Values in Navigation, the user would only see Cost Centers 1000 - 1099 in the filter selection list.
    - with Only Values in InfoProvider, the user would see Cost Centers 1000 - 2999.
    - with Only Values in Master Data, user would see 0001 - 9999.
    This may or may not be acceptable.  If a user chooses Cost Center 2000, the query would copme back with No Available Data since ther are not transaction with Bus Area = 10 and Cost Center 2000.
    Now lets say you are using CALMONTH, chances are the user would understand that if they select a November of 2006 while in August, they wouldn't get any data. They might understand what Cost Centers to expect back in Bus Area 10, but they may not be as familiar with all the values for all Characteristics.
    Like everything else, there are pros + cons.

    Hi Hussein,
    Thanks for your prompt reply and my apologies for the substantial delay in mine.
    We did some trouble shooting since then.
    We repolved the problem by choosing a pdf format instead of the seeded RTF format. This opened up the output in a couple of minutes because the pdf formatted output was about 50mb vs the RTF output which was 300MB+.
    But the ORIGINAL problem still remains. The xml tagged .out file is still huge with a size of nearly 1gb!
    My earlier questions here now boil down to the following questions.
    Q1. Is the huge XML Publisher's .out file expected in R12?  It really is massive!  The text file from 11i was just 19MB
    Q2. Oracle does not seem to offer the option to format the output in plain text ...We see PDF, RTF but no plain ugly text.  I would expect plain text file to be much smaller.  How can we get the output in plain text?
    1.Yes our stats are upto date. Let me emphasize that we do not have a performance problem with the report itself. The issue we are having is opening up the output.
    2. The authentication error is resolved. It was because of formatting the reports incorrectly.
    3. We did not use the usual tuning procedures such as tkprof because we do not have a performance problem.
    4. We checked the OPP file and there are none. I reiterate, The report does complete without issues. It is just that the output takes a long time to open up in the RTF
    I will appreciate if others  can share any experiences if you have faced this situation and how you have handled it.
    Thanks in advance for your time!
