Recommended image resolutions / ratios for PDF files

Hello

is there a recommended image resolutions / ratios for PDF files? As if I want my image to 100 x 100 pixels, should its JPEG source or what is 500 x 500 pixels? I want to make a good impression / about zoom, but without compromising the size of the file.

Thank you!

I take this to mean that you expect people to print on a desktop printer, is not that you are planning to print 10,000 on a press.

In this case, you can safely downsample at 150 dpi to reduce the file size without seriously damaging the image quality to print (but use a high quality zip or jpeg compression).

  • Photoshop as default application for PDF files * question *.

    Hi all!

    I've recently updated PS, AI and Acrobat.  I used to have the parameter so that the PS was the default program to open all PDFs. Since the update, it is even more allows PS to be a default eligible opening application for PDF files.

  • Downloads window blank and nothing download - only for PDF files?

    FF 25, Mac Mountain Lion.

    Last week, stopped download PDF files and the downloads window is empty. Tried Safe Mode and clear memory cache, as well as Disable selectively module DownloadHelper. Nothing has worked. Acrobat plugin is not used, I've always had PDF files in Acrobat itself opening.

    It seems to affect only PDF files.

    I do not have reset FF because it's so invasive and time-consuming. Any other solution before I resort to that (or switch to Chrome)?

    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not to open PDF files with the internal PDF reader to Firefox), do the following:

  • Impossible to access from Firefox 19 update plugin Acrobat for pdf files

    I don't like the new pdf viewer, which keeps throwing warnings and is not nearly as usable as the Acrobat plugin. I wanted to go back to the old plugin Acrobat installed with Adobe Reader XI. I searched these forums and the support files and tried the following, which none worked:

    1. Tools/Options/Applications, change pdf to 'use Adobe Reader'. This measure of reader, but not the plugin. There is no option for "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". This option IS sometimes listed Acrobat file as Adobe Acrobat Forms Document.

    2 followed all the advice on this web page, which none worked: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them

    3 reinstalled drive XI. Did not help.

    4 disabled plugin Acrobat to restarted ff... Reactivated it. Restarted. Did not help.

    5 changed pdfjs.disabled to true in topic: config. Made no difference.

    I'm pretty annoyed that I have to waste all that time to go back to something that has worked well. Just another update lame FF that should not happen. You guys are the deployment of updates too often without enough input from users. And what has become of the idea of opt in for optional features instead of just forcing on us. Will seek to use IE, where the plugin works fine.

    I think I solved my problem. I have disabled the plugin for Nitro Pro 7 and the Acrobat plugin is now visible again for pdf files.

  • How can I use windows search to search for pdf files containing a specific word?

    I have a folder with several pdf files. When I use windows search for a word that I know exists in one of the files, I get no results. It does not work when I use the content: either.

    How can I use windows search to search for pdf files containing a specific word?

    Do I need to install something to activate search within .pdf?

    If you use Win7 32 bit, the iFilter is bundled with Acrobat Reader 9. On Win7 64-bit, you will need to install it separately.

  • Define the quality of compression for individual images to export a PDF file?

    When is export a PDF in the ID file, you are given an option to downsample and compress images. My problem is, I want to compress images more than others. For example, a photo in the paper could be much more than a sous-echantillonnees png logo. Of course, I could go and pre-sous - sample each image to the right size in photoshop, but it may involve sort of. Is there a way I could exclude at least one particular image of compression?

    Hi Graham,

    If this is all for a PDF file, which should be light for web downloads and not for print jobs we can do the following:

    1. export a PDF file with different settings Downsample

    2 merge PDFs with Acrobat Pro

    Using the functionality of layers:
    A. import as layer
    B. flatten layers

    To get the different resolutions of individual images, configure the images that you do not want to see with a separate export for re - print.

    If this idea will work or not work depends on the structure of your page layout. And it might be a little automated through scripts. The extent of automation can be low or high. If images that shouldn't be downsampled can be identified by certain rules, legal regimes may or other means such as styles of object applied to the container used frames per etc., it could be high. And also individual export can be done by the script.

    Kind regards
    Uwe

  • I imported an EPS layered file in FrameMaker, but ONLY the EPS image appears in the PDF file. How to do everything to appear?

    I imported a file .eps (a barcode) in FrameMaker and found that the omitted PDF everyting but the .eps image.  How can I get FrameMaker to recognize the text and images in the file FM, as well as the image of layered .eps file in the output PDF file? To test this, I also converted the .eps file (in PhotoShop) for a TIFF, JPG and GIF, PSD and imported of each in the doc of FrameMaker and created a PDF file.

    When I imported the FM and PDFd .psd file, all of the text and images of the file FM appeared, but the bar code has low resolution.

    When I imported the TIFF records in FM and PDFd, nothing appears in the PDF file except the barcode image and the text block, to which it is linked. The bar code has low resolution.

    With a JPG image, everything appears in the PDF but the barcode has low resolution.

    With a GIF image, it appears in the PDF, but t barcode a low-resolution.

    First thing you should try is to create a PDF file of the EPS file using Acrobat only. If it does not come out as expected (in the PDF file), then you know exactly where the problem is. Create a PDF file of the EPS in Photoshop is not a good test.

    You also need to update your version of FM12 - you have a patch behind.

  • Previews of the Windows Desktop for PDF files icon

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 and use a large number of PDF documents.

    My problem is that only some PDF document files that I leave on my desk display the image thumbnails.
    Others show just a generic Adobe logo and a red rectangle that says PDF.
    It seems random, on 60% images, logos of 40%. I contacted Adobe and sought in several forums, but can't seem to get an answer.

    I know it's just a nuisance, but it bothers me little. (I think it's the same thing in Vista Ultimate x 64)

    Hello Wayne,
    Please contact the Support of Adobe® support with AdobeAcrobat® Professional 9.0 Web.
    I understand that miniature previews for your PDF files do not always see your Microsoft® Windows® Vista® Ultimate Edition
    64-bit operating system.  Thumbnails in Vista are determined by the operating system and
    not by the default program to open the file. Some people have been able to display miniature systematically by previews
    setting the parameters of Visual performance for Vista. For more information on setting these parameters, you will need to
    contact Microsoft or your computer manufacturer. I hope this information helps with your problem.
    If you need help with this problem, update your web folder with all the details, including what measures you have applied
    and error messages that you receive. Alternatively, you can call Technical Support to the (800) 642-3623. We are available from 06:00 to 05:00
    Monday - Friday, Pacific Time.Kind regards, H

    (Yes, good luck with the phone support!)  and I tried to adjust the Visual settings, giving you all the logos of Adobe, or a mix again.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Hey, Wayne Claus.

    I found the following on the Forums of Support from Adobe , which implies to me that it is a problem with Adobe and 64-bit operating systems:

    Marin85 on forum.thinkpads.com has found a solution to this problem. Seems that the problem occurs on 64 bit systems. Win 7 32 bit version creates the miniature .pdf automatically with Adobe Pro v9. However, this is not the case with Win 7 x 64. Note that on Vista or XP, but it might be the same number of 32-bit/64-bit.

    If the thumbnails are not be generated automatically, in order to create a thumbnail preview instead of the regular pdf icon, you just browse to a folder containing PDFs OF IN ACROBAT READER and select the 'Tiles' of the 'Open files' window view Acrobat then creates miniature previews for the PDF files in that particular folder.

    I knew that I had seen something on this problem elsewhere and see that it's an Adobe problem needs to be addressed! I found the link when looking for an answer to a different question. See Finally, a fix for the bug to preview PDF in Windows 64-bit by Microsoft MVP & Tech, Ed Bott author.

  • How will I know what the resolution is a PDF file?

    Hello. Can someone tell me please how to tell what the resolution has PDF? Thanks in advance.

    PDF files are not images, but vector documents. They have not a

    single resolution. They can contain images with different resolution settings.

  • How do you prevent image selection in a pdf file?

    I try to avoid the selection of an image in a PDF file. In my file, it is possible to click and select an image that gets in a blue color. I would like to avoid that, creating a file that looks like this: http://www.dcc.ttu.ee/lap/lap5760/jy992d48301-j_fx.pdf

    Note that I speak not the encryption or the security option, but an alternative where we cannot yet choose the image of May. I am well aware that this will not copy the image (there are always print to the screen, in any case), but I just want to avoid the possibility to select the image in any case for an academic article.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    The file you linked to is guaranteed... So if you want that your file the same behavior, apply security as well.

    Another option is to export your file in a format of image and then re - generate a new PDF file from these images. That would be 'flatten' in a way that would make the unselectable original images, but I think it's a long way to go for this small difference.

  • How to hide the names of names/path of images embedded in a PDF file?

    I created a PDF to a Word document, and the problem is that the PDF document is the file names and path for all images incorporated into the PDF document. I do not want the information posted. I don't want to send the PDF to customers and ask them to read the names that I attributed to these images, it's messy. And I lost many original image files so that they exist only in the Word document, so I can't go back and rename them. I searched the internet for an answer, but I could not find one any where.

    When you create (accessible) PDFs coined the word, placed bitmap images will use the file name as 'ALT text' If you do not set something else for the text to say, because an image without ALT text is a failure against the accessibility standards. You cannot change this default action, so you should put your own text that's significant in the ALT field for each picture - that's what you should do anyway if the PDF conforms to standards.

    You can can set the text in Word, but this depends on your version where dialog boxes - Google for it - or you can change/remove it in Acrobat by using the navigation pane of tags on the left side of the window (right click on the sidebar if it is not visible). Explore the structure of tags to find the "

    " tag you want to change, right-click, and choose Properties, then put something in the "Alternate text" field This process is not something you can automate easily, but if you don't need labels at all, you can save without tags (or print to PDF).

  • place an image on an imported pdf file?

    I have 106 pdf generated by a genealogy program. They need an image added to each of them. I can do in the genealogy program, but it increases the size of the pdf file by about 5 times the size of the image, so they are more than 10 MB each. These are for the print output and the printer wants the pdf from InDesign. My plan was to open the pdf files in InDesign (asked here about this earlier) as well as docx pages that are also in the book, and then export them for printing. Is it possible to add the images while the files pdf is open in InDesign?

    I need to preserve the quality of the page layout for my final pdf (table with a very small font). I have Illustrator, and I can open PDFs in there and export or save as a number of file types. It would be a better route to add photos? Printing doesn't seem so clear to me when I do like eps or have, but maybe open it in InDesign would have a different result.

    I have CS4 Web Premium (64-bit Win7), plan the InDesign trial download, once I have all ready to go, images cropped, pages etc. So I can't experiment right now, just read what I can find. I don't want to download the trial version and then run out of time. I don't decide if I want to buy until I got this road project. And I REALLY want this project went! Thanks for any advice.

    If the image must be the same size and in the same position on each page, by all means put an empty block on the master page. Apply properties of scaling on the empty picture frame to save time. You can then place your images into the placeholders in the pages of the document without the need to substitute.
