Import several graphic size page files

Greetings, all.

I have 96 tiff files (created in Adobe Illustrator) I want to import into InDesign. The document is a graphic novel, and tiff files are pages. The goal is to make a PDF for reviewers.

So my questions are:

  • What is the best way to get the 96 files in InDesign? One at a time? Is there a faster way?

  • Would it not better just to use Acrobat to create the pdf file?

  • Wouldn't be better to use the native Illustrator files rather than the exported TIFF? (The Publisher requires the TIFF as their deliverables). Again, this first step is to create a PDF for reviewers.

Any help would be appreciated.

  • What is the best way to get the 96 files in InDesign? One at a time? Is there a faster way?

In general, your questions, all boil down to what I would call 'workflow design' and the fastest way is not always the best. My understanding is that put you up your dialogue balloons, make your registration and a) first export PDF for review, b) then implement the changes of the examiner and then c) be responsible for the final output of flattened TIFF. Is this correct?

One way would be to first ensure that your 96 pages of art are all mentioned in the order (maybe with numbers at the beginning of the file name) and then drop them-> up all at once. You will still need to scroll and click once for each of the 96 files, but you'd have to the file-> place 96 times. However, if your 96 pages could be combined into a single PDF (not hard if you have Acrobat Pro installed) then you could combine everything in a PDF file quite easily and use a script like the MultiPageImporter to place the PDF at the same time. That would be the fastest way, preventing another script which will put all the TIFFs 96 at once. On the other hand, if you are responsible for the latest release of the final TIFF, then combining in Acrobat could encourage other problems that don't appear until later - for example, if these TIFFs are part of a color management workflow. (I'm guessing, here. I don't know.)

It's just a piece of your workflow. All of this must be considered carefully if you want that your final product to appeal to all those involved. If I did not like about the color, here is what I would do:

(1) use Acrobat to combine all the TIFFs

(2) place that PDF link with the above script

(3) the work my speech bubble

(4) to export a PDF file to my reviewers

(5) for the reviewer changes

(6) when the file is finalized - export a fresh PDF

(7) use Acrobat to save the entire under PDF... you guessed it, TIFF.

However, I mislike using Acrobat in this way. You were asked quick, however. I have no way of knowing how this workflow would mess with other parts of the workflow of the editor. The only way to build the workflow that could work for everyone would understand what the requirements of the Publisher are, and how to make sure the original art makes the process completely unchanged.

There may be a script there to place several TIFFs that I don't know. I know a handful of Javascript, but it is obvious that the importer of several PDF page to which I've linked is pretty well focused on PDF and not easy to adapt. However, I have no doubt that a multi-TIFF-importer script would be much easier, and if you use this workflow again and then writing or commissioning of a script (or just hard asking a favor script) would probably be in your best interest.

  • Can I change the size of my page file?

    Leaving the page set to automatic file size is usually more effective.  Any improvements you might see by increasing the size of the file would be minimal, at best.

  • Try to calculate the size of the PAGE file

    This is an academic exercise. I am trying to determine why my PAGE file size is what it is. Currently, he is registered to 28,000,331 bytes. (He's alone). Here are the facts:

    3 dense dimensions, stored members are 17 * 20 * 5, for a total of 1,700 * 8 = 13 600 bytes.

    The actual maximum blocks are 19 800. The maximum reported are 24 750.

    I have disabled compression for ease of calculation.

    There is only 1 block no missing.

    I use SER60 as my guide in the section estimate disk and the memory required. However, when I use the planned calculation:

    Number of blocks * (size of data block expanded + 72 bytes)

    I don't get anywhere near the number of bytes listed for the PAG file. I realize that I am not to mention the rest of the database files and do not know if this calculation is only for the PAG files or all files. I am not very interested in the size of the entire database, just the file PAG. So my questions are:

    1. is the calculation provided for all files or just the file PAG?

    2. If the answer to 1 is Yes, is there a separate calculation, that I can use to determine the size of the PAGE file only?

    Take a look at NUMBLOCKSTOEXTEND in the technical reference on Essbase.  We had a long conversation that addressed this issue on Network54 recently: http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1374608752/11-1-2-2+Fragmentation

    Short answer is that Essbase allocates file space .pag in 2048-block pieces, which is the default value of NUMBLOCKSTOEXTEND 11.1.2.2.  Calculate how many blocks (including header block 72 bytes) integrate 28,000,331 bytes and you will see that this is almost exactly 2048.

    With compression on it more difficult (for me, at least) to understand how Essbase arrives with the size of the average disk blocks to use as the size on the disk with compression on is not constant.

  • File size/page # limits

    Hi all, using TCS2 on Windox 7 64-bit.

    Everyone knows the limits of size of file with this product? I'm a link (by reference) a book of FM 1200 + (and growing) composed of many chapters, etc.. And I find that HR is slower and slower every time that I update (which is normal I guess). However, it also seems to be crumbly (more prone to random crashing) Gets the biggest of my book of FM.

    A what anyone here found that after a certain number of pages or the size of the file, this process simply doesn't work anymore? I want to know rather than later, that the tool will not scale with my projects.

    Thank you

    Yes, provided that you have enough power that you garden for updates, files, and program will keep blowing.

  • Problem with MSINFO32. EXE and Total/available vs Page file space virtual memory reported

    I am running Windows XP Professional SP3 with all installed updates, latest hardware drivers, etc.. It is a CLEAN installation on a material brand new, completed a week ago.
    The "/ PAE" switch is enabled in the boot.ini file.

    When I run MSINFO32. EXE, the summary of the system is the following:
    System model: System product name
    System type: X 86-based PC
    Processor: x 86 family 16 model 4 Stepping 3 Mhz-AuthenticAMD ~ 3515

    Username: username MYUSERNAME01\My (redacted for privacy)
    Time zone: Pacific Daylight Time
    Total physical memory: 8 MB 192,00
    Available physical memory: 2.60 GB
    Total virtual memory: 2.00 GB
    Available virtual memory: 1.96 GB
    Page file space: 7.07 GB
    File: E:\pagefile.sys

    Right click on 'my computer' and selecting 'Properties' shows exact needs to be visible to a 32 bit OS... 3.24 GB of RAM. So, how MSINFO32. EXE is able to detect all of 8 GB is totally beyond me. But this isn't my problem.

    My BIG PROBLEM is the virtual memory. If I open the root of my drive E:\, it shows the swap file to size: 4 096 MB. And that's how it is in 'my computer' > 'Advanced' > 'Performance' > 'Advanced' > 'virtual memory' > 'change'.
    Custom size:
    -Initial size (MB): 4096
    -Maximum size (MB): 4096
    Total size of file for all readers:
    -Minimum authorized: 2 MB
    -Recommended: 4978 MB
    -Currently allocated: 4080 MB

    Why is-MSINFO32. EXE, statement my total virtual memory 2 GB and the size of pagefile 7.07 GB? Neither is correct! Can someone explain just what the heck happens here? My research on Google, many other people report the same total/available virtual memory amounts, with wildly different hardware configurations. I changed the size manually and rebooted several times, without result. I had the pagefile, sitting in a 5 GB partition, and then he moved on to another drive with plenty of space and assign "System managed". Divergence still existed.

    The material is as follows:
    [|] ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 BIOS v1702 [|] AMD PhenomII x 4 (970 Black Edition) [|] Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8 (x 2) mode modules together ~ 800 Mhz & calendar 8-8-8-24 [|] Integrated graphics card Radeon HD 4250 with 128 MB + 512 MB memory [|] ASUS VE248H 24 "1080 p HD LED monitor [|] Drives from Maxtor 6V250F0 (x 4) 250 GB SATAII 1.5 Gbps [|] LG BD - DL Optical Drive WH10LS30 [|] Creative Labs X - Fi Platinum Sound Card [|] Logitech LX 700 keyboard/mouse wireless [|]

    I changed the speed / "timing" on the RAM to run ~ 666 Mhz @ 9-9-9-24, and the problem persists. As far as I know, he is not actually detrimental to the system; that is, it does not regularly, crash or anything. But the fact that MSINFO32. EXE cannot obtain such a right basis is VERY disturbing for me. There is no state what operating system says it is, then what fundamental problem may arise at some point in the future? Or is already there, hidden and wait a moment when the system load is high until it rears its ugly head and denounces all?
    I wonder if I should completely eliminate virtual memory? Or at least reduce the pagefile to 2 GB or close? After all, I can't imagine many running programs as long as 3.24 GB (RAM available for the operating system) is not sufficient to contain all this. I guess only he pourrait happen, however, is why I'm reluctant to totally renounce virtual memory.

    Anyway. Responses of all appreciated. Gimme a solutionand I will give my first-born. Or at least the neighbors...

  • I have a lot of activity of page file and page faults with 2.5 GB of RAM memory

    Hello

    I tried to find the reason for the slow performance on my pc and the limiting factor seems to be the activity of page file and errors of memory page. It is Win XP sp 3 with 2.5 GB of RAM and a processor 2.8 GHz (core). The task manager has never really shown a problem, memory use was rarely higher than 30%, around 10% page file use (I have the initial value, 3.5 GB 4 GB max) and CPU rarely hits 100%, but even when the task manager has revealed no particular problem the system shuts down sometimes for several seconds on starting the program or file to open. To follow the reason down I have installed a more detailed tracking software, which shows up to 1200 files page per second being transferred to or from the virtual memory and up to 8000 page errors per second during these breaks. This could be the cause, and if I can change all the settings to make more efficient memory management?

    Thank you

    My copy/paste standard when someone thinks PFs is / are part of their performance problem (but it's probably not...):

    I'm guessing that you see in the Task Manager and you have chosen to display the column of Page faults?

    If this is the case, given that the column of Page faults is not normally displayed if you activated, perhaps you are looking for some performance issue.

    A Page fault does not mean that there is a problem.

    A Page fault means generally that the application needs some data that are not in physical memory (RAM) at the time.  When the application needs some data that is not in the local memory and must recover from the paging file on the hard drive which is a way, you will see an error Page generated.

    Sounds kind of bad because it has the word 'Fault' in there, but it is really normal.  If you call your task manager after a reboot (do not use any browser), all applications are likely to have at least some page faults, even if you just restarted and "did not" do anything yet.

    Some applications may generate a few hundred or a few thousand Page Faults on a restart and then does not change.  The only thing in the task manager that will have zero Page faults is the system idle process, but this is a special case.

    Knowing what is a Page fault, you can understand that if your system does not have enough RAM for your operations, XP will need to move out to the pagefile often to get things he needs things there can be not in RAM when he needs.  Whenever she does this, you will have a Page fault.  The less RAM you have, more your applications will have hit the swap file to get their data, but you should be able to control some of this and you may even not notice "" the faults of Page at all--they happen all the time.

    So, one might think that if you turned off your pagefile and ran without a paging file, you would see zero Page faults in the Task Manager.  That sounds good, but this isn't the way things work.  XP works best when you have a system managed pagefile size (generally) the value if you probably won't work without a pagefile.

    You would always see Page errors in the Task Manager is because there are hard and soft Page faults Page faults, and you would see soft Page faults.

    A hard Page fault would be access to the disk paging file.  A soft Page fault would be just a shuffle or the reorganization of the things that are already in memory.  The Task Manager just them put everything in the column Page Fault and you can't make a difference.

    Given that the Task Manager offers two types of page faults in a single column you will need else with more granularity (such as performance monitor), tools that allow to separate Page faults in soft Page faults and performance monitoring of hard Page faults.    If you turn off your paging file and use Perfmon to split the Page faults on different types and follow them separately and have no pagefile, you see zero hard Page faults, but still see soft Page faults as a separate counter.

    I ran XP for a l-o-n-g time with only 256 MB of RAM and was quite satisfied with her for several years once I dialed things.

    Most your system and applications run, Page faults accumulate so that application until the application ends and restarted, then the Page counters error starts to the new and will keep goes upward, upward, toward the top and up - it does not mean necessarily you have a problem and PFs are not likely to be the cause of your performance problems.

    I do not think that you will see top-down but you can start them by restarting the application.

  • I have two 2 physical HDD (logic 1 = 2 partitions, 1 with partion unique); on all the page files will improve performance, or is an annex of page file?

    My laptop has two 2 750 GB HDD (plus a 8 GB SSD Express Cache). The first HARD disk is partitioned into 2 letters two logical sectors (~ 275 GB & 375 GB {more system/recovery NTFS partitions 2}), assigned drive C (main system partition), and D (logical partition) and the second physical disk E (750 GB). Win7Pro64 created a pagefile managed system on the C drive, but not on readers D & E. Y has an advantage, or more importantly, a disadvantage to the creation of swap files on the D & E readers?

    I am not opposed to using all the 375GB logical partition on drive D as a swap file if this can help performance, and/or create a pagefile on the E drive the same size as on the C drive, once again, to help performance.

    Can someone help me with the best approach?

    Also, I have an Intel i7-3610QM with 16 GB of RAM and a GPU Nvidia GeForce GTX G675M with 2 GB of RAM.

  • Available Page file is reduced

    Several days, I checked my current configuration of the system and I got 100,00% available page file, and my page file size was 19, 213.5 MB. But today, once I updated my setup, both of them are smaller. Is this normal?

    Your page shrink file is nothing to worry about. It is used like Windows virtual memory for you sure have enough memory available for programs and processes. Honestly with 16 GB of RAM, you can turn it off and just run on the cylinder itself, however it depends on what you do with your computer.  Its all managed by Windows, so I don't worry about this.

  • What is the best format to import to an indesign book files

    I am reproducing a family cookbook and will place small blows to head to their family members or their children next to the recipe.  I intend to scan and import about 150 pages of the ancient book of recipes and use the pages but will place photos, adjacent to the recipe.

    I tried this with indesign cs3 import pages as PDF and ran into memory important problems and have now upgraded to cs6 but would make good sense for the first time.

    So bottom line: if import a large number of scanned documents is it better to analyze as JPEG or PDF files or is there a better way.

    You have Acrobat Pro? If so, I'd run all these pages however scanned OCR and conversion of text before placing them.

    But I wonder what you are doing that you are out of memory because placed images (as opposed to glued or placed and nested) must use only enough space for the pointer on the image and a preview of the screen. What resolution did you use to scan pages? What color mode? Which was exactly the memory problem you experience?

    Regarding the image format, you should see the same size of file that you use tif, jpeg, PDF or psd to your images if all other factors are the same.

  • You can print several slides per page (instead of 1 slide / pg) with eprint?

    I have a HP Deskjet 3070 with technology eprinting and my computer is running Microsoft Powerpoint 2010.

    I would like to customize the way my powerpoint slides are printed when I send it to my address of email eprint as an attachment. In particular, I would like to print several slides per page for the purpose of taking notes. Is it possible for me to do this? Thank you very much.

    Hi yeeyucai, it is not possible to control print settings outside the color/shades of gray and paper size, when you use ePrint by sending your file as an attachment to an email. I don't know if your computer is a laptop and if there are times when you need to print your Deskjet 3070 remotely, but if so, then you can do this by installing the driver Mobile HP ePrint. Once installed when you try and print from Powerpoint you will see HP ePrint listed as another available printer and when you choose this option, you can search your Deskjet 3070 by email address and set the number of pages per sheet for whatever the desired number. Obviously if your computer is a desktop, there is little value in installing the driver, unless there are other active ePrint printers you sometimes send content to.

    Let me know if this makes sense or you need help with the Setup program.

  • How you import several sets of text delimited by tabs in your form?

    Is there an easy way to put in the data from a text file of data values (separator: tab) with multiple instances of each variable?   In my current project, I want to make the name, address, phone, etc. of the data from the text file to a few hundred people in a PDF form that I create and format to my characteristics given.  I know that I can import text and select the instance of the variable I want to fill the similar named fields, but I was wondering if I could correctly name or create the fields on the form so that it would automatically fill each subsequent instance variables with the next line of data?  In this case, I would like to end up with a well formatted address book.

    Thank you!

    It is possible, but not just a simple data import.

    Each form on the page of several PDF field would need a unique name not repeated on another page of the PDF file. Fortunately, the standard Acrobat form includes the 'model' object and this object can be created or used to add a new page with the template added for each field on the new page form and form fields automatically renamed with a string to prefix to the number of the page. So if one were to import a line of your file delimited tab in the model, we could then reproduce the model with data from a new page and rename the fields so there would be no conflict of as named fields.
