 Hi Clive,

 Compression works principally by finding patterns of repeated bits

 many times the pattern is repeated. So a file with a lot of spaces

 trying to compress contains little repetition such as an executable  
 program file, then you will get very little compression.

 What was the file you were trying to compress?

Hi Ronnie

We will try ColorSync, we did as suggested using Preview but it  
doubled the file size??

 Hi again Clive,

 I forgot about using ColorSync Utility. If Preview does not reduce  
 the PDF enough try ColorSync Utility.
 I remember using it a long time ago and it did significantly reduce  
 the size of a PDF file.

 ColorSync Utility.app From finder select the Go menu, and  
 select Utilities.
 In this folder you will find the ColorSync application.

 1. Open ColorSync.app
 2. Go to the File menu and select open. Find the pdf file you want  
 to shrink and select it.
 3. You will see the first page of the pdf file in a 'preview  
 window', and at the bottom of the window you will find a drop down  
 menu with Filter by the side of it.
 4. Use the drop down menu to select Reduce File Size, and then  
 click Apply.
 5. You can then close and save the document, which will now be a  
 smaller size.

 Hi Clive,

 Just adding to Carlo's comments.

 Open the PDF in Preview and then save it (as a PDF) again; the  
 resulting file will usually be significantly smaller than the  
 original with no difference in quality.

 Preview Save dialog includes, in the Quartz Filter pop-up menu, a  
 Reduce File Size option.
 However, this option uses compression, so it reduces the quality  
 of images and text in the resulting PDF.
 If you simply re-save a PDF, without this option, no compression  
 occurs.

 How does this work if Preview isn’t actually compressing images?
 The program is simply using OS X’s built-in PDF-processing  
 features to strip PDF files of all the unnecessary bits: preview  
 images, metadata, and the like.
 This feature is especially useful for PDFs created in Adobe  
 Illustrator and InDesign, which tend to be unnecessarily large  
 because of program-specific components and other non-vital data  
 these applications save inside each PDF.

 Cheers,
 Ronni

 Hi Clive,

 The effectiveness of compression of a PDF will vary wildly  
 depending on the content. Large PDF files normally contain a  
 large number of images or a few very large images. If you have  
 access to the source of the PDF you can choose to compress the  
 images at a lower resolution and thus cut down on the size  
 dramatically. You can also purchase tools which will compress the  
 images in a PDF even if you do not have the original source  
 document.

 Hi Guys

 I have just tested a 1mb PDF in preview and it reduced it by two  
 thirds, so export, format PDF, then use the Quartz filter to reduce  
 size.  Of course it will depend on the PDF you are using and your  
 mileage will no doubt be different.  The best option is to go back  
 to the original and work on it there.

 Depending how important this problem is to you, here is one of

I presume you mean it's an iPod Touch. Other iPod models are unable  
to download software by themselves.


The quickest way to tell about your Netgear device is to examine  
it. If it has a connection in the back to take an antenna, or if  
already has an antenna attached, then it is clearly a WiFi Router.  
If there's no antenna, it does not handle WiFi.

Hi Clive,

It sounds like it could be a hard drive failure. Under what  
circumstances did you start the re-install of OS X, was there a  
problem reading or writing files or did you just want to upgrade?


Cheers,
Carlo

Hi Clive,

I will be out of contact for most of the rest of the daylight hours  
today. I am glad to hear that repair permissions is running now.  
After it runs, verify the disk if you can. If both go through OK,  
you may be clear of problems. On the other hand, you may have an  
intermittent disk hardware problem that will show itself again at a  
future time. You may need to keep an eye on it for a while to see  
if problems recur.

While I can't say for sure what is going on I can say that I have

I believe it is the IDE controllers.

The main 100MHz bus sometimes hates second drives attached to it  
and in my opinion will affect the boot drive's performance if it  
does work anyway.
Depending on model there is a 66MHz bus which is often vacant, good  
for dumb storage but I would not have software there due to the  
speed hit on this slower bus.
The 33MHz bus that the optical drive is on also can take a HDD but  
the speed.


I made these issues go away by purchasing an ACard 133MHz (2 port,  
supports 4 drives) IDE controller from Daniel Kerr. Sonnet make  
good ones too.

I use this alone, I'm out of love with those onboard controllers ;-)

2008-06-24 Thread Clive Slater

Hi Ronni and List

Thanks for the amount of time you have put into this, just one  
question when I go to send a email to the list with an email embedded  
it bounces back saying that it is two part or alternative how come  
you can do it.


Many thanks

Lost Emails

2008-06-23 Thread Clive Slater

Hi Group

G4 OSX 10.4.11

Last week Mail 2.1.3 crashed and all previously received and sent  
emails do not exist any more only this message


The message from Kristie Walker email address concerning FW  
Comments from cargo force web site has not been downloaded from the  
server. You need to take this account online in order to download it


I am presuming that they are gone for good. Not Good!!
Is there any way to get them back.

TIA

Regards

happened to make them all disappear.


Thanks

Clive,
your mail may still be on your hard drive and only the index gone .

Check under   USER - Library - Mail for Pop mail ( I assume you  
are using Pop mail )

and see how big the folders are .

If you have size the mail is still there .

In your Mail drop dpwn menus under  mailboxlook for  
and action   rebuild 


It may take a few minutes

You need to browse to the desktop fodler, or the folder containing

I would use Indesign, it's very user friendly. Your friend would find  
it very difficult to get anything published from word.
