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

Since installing Lion I keep getting the error message 'there was a problem connecting to the server. URLs with the type 'file:" are not supported"' How can I fix this?

Not a nice answer!
Posting "Check the 'More like this'" area and not simply providing the answer is a great way to make these groups worthless.
You're ignoring context. On the old Apple Discussion Groups I never posted replies like that, instead giving people relatively detailed answers. The new Apple Support Communities made things worse by introducing certain inefficiencies. Then came Lion. The flood of messages that came with Lion required a painful choice for any of the people who had been helping here: (1) Give quality responses to a few questions and ignore the rest. (2) When applicable, give a brief answer such as the one that you found objectionable. (3) Give up all the other normal activities of life and spend full time trying to answer questions here.
People who needed help with Lion problems seemed to have trouble discovering existing message threads that described how to solve their problems. I never posted the suggestion of "Check the 'More like this' area" without verifying that the help that the poster needed could be found there. Even doing that, what I posted saved me time that I could use to help someone else.
The people helping here are all volunteers. None of them is being paid for the time they spend here. They all have a life outside of Apple Support Communities. It's arrogant of you to demand that people helping here spend more time than they already do.

PDF files open in colorsync and can't be printed

In the last couple of weeks any downloaded PDF files open in Colorsync instead of Preview. I can't print them from Colorsync. I have repaied premissions. I don't know enough about computers to toss preferences, and I'm not sure which file to toss anyhow. It sort of feel like I've "lost" Preview, although the file is still on my hard drive. I appreciate any help any of you guys can give me in advance.
Mike Ryan

Thomas:
If I look for Preview in "find" it goes HD>Applications>Xcode tools>Preview.pkg. I Went through an install routine and then tried to open a PDF file using control/click. That lists the default program as Colorsync with option of Virex, Safari, Epson (scanner) or "other." If I select "other," and then "applications," I can't find Preview. I guess I just don't understand these applications very well. Preview used to open everytime I downloaded a PDDF file. thanks for trying to help. I guess I can always call Apple.

PDF files open in PSE, how to turn off?

I want PDF files to open in Adobe reader. They automatically open in PSE8. How can I turn this feature off?

Sorry bout that folks. I figured it out. You change it with Adobe Reader.

Pdf files associations... how can I change them? [SOLVED]

Basically when I double-click a pdf file from nautilus, gimp opens. I have the gnome-extra packages installed (document viewer for exmaple reads pdf files, no), but I have no idea how to reset the file association from gimp to document viewer. Thanks!

If not, some current gnome user might be better able to assist you. Sorry.
GOT IT!
Right-click the file>properties>Open With Tab
Thanks!
Isn't that exactly what I had suggested in my first post in the thread??

Adobe PDF file is damaged. How can it be fixed

One of our staff created a PDF file and for some reason it is damaged. I tried to open it with Adobe Acrobat Pro, but no luck. It is a VERY important manual. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Simon,
There's no way to recover a damaged or corrupted pdf.
Some 3rd party pdf viewers are able to open the pdf bypassing the corruption in fonts or pdf structure. You can try using one of those and print to Adobe PDF printer to flatten the document and use Acrobat to open it.

How can I ask Siri to turn on my Bluetooth device wireless speaker?

I want to ask Siri to turn on my Bluetooth wireless speaker device. But all she will do is turn on Bluetooth. She won't ask for a device.

I don't think Siri support for auto Bluetooth is official yet. It sort works in mine, a Fiat 500, but I have to use the home button on my iPhone to enable Siri, the voice command button on my steering wheel doesn't do it. I would say keep checking the Siri/iPhone page on apple.com for info on when auto kits will be supported.

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

How do I get my PDF files onto my ipad

I spoke to apple in February and they helped me put ove a hundred PDF files onto my ipad. When I open acrobat under the heading of documents is where all the files reside. I even made subfolders. Well, I forgot how to do it and called apple again today and they told me with the new ibook update, all pdf files get placed under ibooks. not only that, I cannot make subfolders. Their only suggestion was to get an account with acrobat and transfer them that way. I uploaded the files here, but now I cannot figure out how to get them onto my ipad. Any help would be appreciated.

You can either select GoodReader at the bottom of the iPad's apps tab when connected to you computer's iTunes - it should appear as one apps that support file sharing (there is info on file sharing in the manual which can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad). Or the app itself supports wifi transfer via you wifi network - just touch the wifi symbol (next to the camera) at the bottom of the app on your iPad, and you should be given an address to use on your computer's browser so as to transfer files to/from the app.

How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad

How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad?

You can email them, you can use DropBox, SugarSync or another cloud service or you can use iOS file sharing.
But in all cases you need an app on the iPad that will open and save those types of files. iBooks, Adobe Readers, Good Reader and Save 2 PDF will all save PDF files.
Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro and the Apple iWorks apps will open and save the MS office files. You can Google - "iPad apps that are compatible with Microsoft Office files" and you will find other alternatives - or search the app store for more.
You can read this as well for some instruction on getting those files onto an iPad.

Launch your internet browser
Open https://files.acrobat.com/
Log into Acrobat.com with the same Adobe ID as you used on your iPad
Your file should be available
Select the file and select the Download icon
You can download the file to your hard drive
Another option is
Go to you PC

You should then see your PDF in the listings
Select to open
Once open you can save to your desktop

Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

Hey ilyaz20360341,
Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
Hope to get your response.
Regards,
Anubha
