Why is a 4MB Pages document converting into a 20.7MB epub file?  How can I reduce the size?

I'm using Pages 4.3 to create epub files.  It converted a 112-page, 4 MB Pages document to a 20.7 MB epub file.  Yet when I converted the Pages document to a mobi file (for Amazon ebooks), it's only 3.6 MB.  Obviously I can't use a 20.7 MB file.  Why is it doing this and what can I do about it?
Thanks for any information.

Video files.
Please take note that FLV is not much better than regular
video. In fact it's
larger and lousier quality. So you could import MOV to flash
and keep it as SWF.
This would keep the file smaller a bit. Than you can always
load these files
in run time, swf and flv. Making main movie small and just
stream the content when
needed.

  • Why is my word and pdf files so large? How can I reduce the size?

    My document contains mostly photos from a database via a path to the actual jpeg photos on disk.
    There are 39 jpeg photos + a small amount of text with each photo.
    The 39 jpeg photos on the disk add up to be 5.79 mb.
    If I export the crystal reports document as [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Non Editable] the, the file size is 36.8 mb.
    If I export the same data as a [Microsoft Word (97-2003) Editable] the file size is only 3.1 mb.
    That is a difference of 33.7 mb! Why?
    Also, when I export the same data to a PDF file it is much larger than I think it should be; 12.7 mb.
    Why is my word and PDF files so large?
    How can I reduce the size of the word and PDF files? (without reducing the photo quality).
    Are there any tools to post process the Word or PDF files to reduce the file size?

    You can't, extra size is to hold the details

    Hi jsamx,
    You can hold down ctrl key on your keyboard and then use your mouse scroll to zoom-in or or zoom-out of the page.
    Alternatively, you can go to view menu -> zoom -> Dynamic zoom.
    Does this helps with your query?

  • How Can I Determine the Size of the 'My Documents' Folder for every user on a local machine using VBScript?

    Hello,
    I am at my wits end into this. Either I am doing it the wrong way or it is not possible.
    Let me explain. I need a vb script for the following scenario:
    1. The script is to run on multiple Windows 7 machines (32-Bit & 64-Bit alike).
    2. These are shared workstation i.e. different users login to these machines from time to time.
    3. The objective of this script is to traverse through each User Profile folder and get the size of the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder. This information is to be written to a
    .CSV file located at C:\Temp directory on the machine.
    4. This script would be pushed to all workstations from SCCM. It would be configured to execute with
    System Rights
    I tried the script detailed at:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2005/03/31/how-can-i-determine-the-size-of-the-my-documents-folder.aspx 
    Const MY_DOCUMENTS = &H5&
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
    Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(MY_DOCUMENTS)
    Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
    strPath = objFolderItem.Path
    Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strPath)
    Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size
    The Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size command in the script at the above mentioned link returned the value as
    '0' (zero) for the current logged on user. Although the actual size was like 30 MB or so.
    I then tried the script at:
    http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/VB_Script/Q_27869829.html
    This script returns the correct value but only for the current logged-on user.
    Const blnShowErrors = False
    ' Set up filesystem object for usage
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    ' Display desired folder sizes
    Wscript.Echo "MyDocuments : " & FormatSize(FindFiles(objFSO.GetFolder(objShell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments"))))
    ' Recursively tally the size of all files under a folder
    ' Protect against folders or files that are not accessible

    On Error Resume Next
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:04", objFolder.Path
    FindFiles = FindFiles + FindFiles(objSubFolder)
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then ShowError "FindFiles:05", objSubFolder.Path
    Next
    Else
    ShowError "FindFiles:03", objFolder.Path
    End If
    End Function
    ' Function to format a number into typical size scales

    aLabel = Array("bytes", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB")
    For i = 0 to 4
    If iSize > 1024 Then iSize = iSize / 1024 Else Exit For End If
    Next
    FormatSize = Round(iSize, 2) & " " & aLabel(i)
    End Function
    Sub ShowError(strLocation, strMessage)
    If blnShowErrors Then

    End If
    End Sub
    The only part pending, is to achieve this for the 'My Documents' folder within each User Profile folder.
    Is this possible?
    Please help.

    Here are a bunch of scripts to get folder size under all circumstances.  Take your pick.

    In CS6, why the file size remains same after croping? And how do I reduce the size after each croping? Thx

    Select the Crop Tool and check the box [  ] Delete Cropped Pixels and you should see a reduction in file size.  With the box unchecked, the data is still maintained in the document, you just can't see it.

  • How can I change the size of a pdf source file, or, convert it to Word?

    How can I change the size of a pdf source file, or, convert it to Word?

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • How do I reduce the size of a picture that I dragged into a document

    How do I change the size of a photo that I dragged from pictures into a document?  It's huge.

    Try putting your cursor over the document, hold down 'control' and click.
    What are the available options?
    Of course, the exact method will depend on what program the document you've opened belongs to, Word, Pages, Libreoffice, etc?

  • How can i make the size of my document that i created smaller so that i can email it easier

    The 5 page document I created and need to send is 1.7MB.  I need it to be 250KB to send using the format requested.  All the info needs to be sent.  How can i shrink the data by such a large amount to enable the document to send?  I am on Windows 7 and using AcrobatXI

    Depending on the content you may be asking for a lot. From within Acrobat the two options to do this are PDF Optimize or Reduce File Size. The location of these options vary among menus based on version. In some versions they are under the File>Save As options (AA XI). The PDF Optimize also has an audit that helps you determine the source of the bloat. If you used WORD to create the PDF, a first step in a smaller file size is to print to the Adobe PDF printer to avoid all the tagging and other markup. Of course, that is a compromise if you had wanted the bookmarks and all.

  • I received a PDF document with jpegs in it....how can I take the photos to iPhoto

    I received a PDF doc with jpeg photos within it.  How can I move photos to iPhoto??

    Here's how to get a pdf file or any file into iPhoto as a jpeg file:
    1 - open the file in any application that will open it.
    2 - type Command+P to start the print process.
    3  - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
    Note:  If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
    Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
    Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
    Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
    4 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
    5 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
    That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of each page of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto.

  • How do i reduce the size of a document?

    HP Photosmart Premium 
    Mac Book Pro

    Hello,
         you may be able to reduce the document size to print on a specific paper size using several methods, depending on what application your printing on.
       For example, you can modify the 'Page Setup...' options by hitting COMMAND+P t bring up the Print Handling Dialog, and ensuring the paper size (e.g. Normal) and the "Scale" is set 100% (or smaller).
      Other dialogs/apps/printers may provdie a 'Scale to fit paper size' checkbox as well.
     Let us know if you have a particular application in mind.
    Hope this helps
