Size of HUGE files

When I edit a photo in CS5 of LR3, files range from 25MB (RAW) to 250MB!  I don't know how to remedy this situation.  Any thoughts? Thank you!

RAW is a no rendered file so the file sizes are smaller. When you view the raw data in RGB color spaces, the file may grow in size. If you open the images in 8 bits/channel, they will be larger than than raw. If you open in 16 bits/channel, they will be much larger. This is normal and there is nothing you can do. Ideally, you want to keep your images in their State gross until you NEED the RGB rendered files-usually reserved for your final hero images. It's one of the advantages of Lightroom workflow.

  • PNG images are converted to the size of huge files

    Hello

    I used InDesign and Word to generate subtitle images that I put then in first CS6 in the form of PNG images with alpha channel. So I have 800 + PNGs in a folder in my project, and I'm carefully their calendar on my video track as a base image. As I'm trying to change my project, I get a message no. hard drive space left. I check my HD and I went to have 600GB of storage to 100MB. I discovered that most (not all) of my 20-30kb PNG images have somehow converted into 2-4 GB a piece when the first is open! I have recorded the images so that they are open first to Kbs, and immediately I look all slowly convert them to these huge file sizes. Please can someone explain what is happening? And how can I remedy this situation?

    I'm on a Mac OS X 10.10.5. Adobe CS6. The files are named "legends # .png ' if it makes a difference (so it's a bit like a sequence). My video is 45 minutes long with many discounts, graphics and audio samples at HD1080 containing approximately 8.5 GB media. The project file is around 53 MB.

    I tried to use for the parser in the metadata tab for legends, but I decided against it, because I don't like the style and the lack of control of the legends in the first. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I get a message when I want to quit smoking that first is save metadata. 20,000 x it might first save metadata in each of my PNG images that would make is it original size? Help, please!

    Thank you very much in advance for any help!

  • 2015 CC 19.1.0: anyone getting the size of huge files even on base vectors?

    After more than an hour with chat support I do not have an answer. I had made a few very small and basic flat icons for an InDesign document and noticed that the PDF has been exporting a lot larger than I expected. This is when I noticed all my files icon Illustrator were 600-700 KB each. I checked the files and there is no extra information hidden inside, I saved them once again with all kinds of compression/compatibility parameters passed around, saved as a fresh copies... nothing worked. Support had me trash my settings file and disable GPU performance, but the two did nothing.

    During the conversation of support that I did a test of a simple black circle of 1 "x" 1 file and it saved 1.6 MB. What the devil? Cat of support received the same result on their end. normally I'd expect an output something like this file to be < 100KB.

    My icon base coming to 652KB: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3235553/icon_education.ai

    Yes, this is the expected behavior. As I already wrote: the color profile has 1 MB. That aside, and you get a lot less filesize. When designing for in fact generally pointless printing a color in a file profile HAVE.

    Also: when there is work in the file, the file will get at least twice as large, because part PDF file contains as well. Please look at this subject files HAVE:

    No, the many new features and services have nothing to do with it.

    And no, a feature request cannot decrease the file size. Because everything is how it works.

    Delete unused elements of brushes, symbols, graphic stlyes and swatches panels also will save filesize. There is even an action for it.

  • (Huge) Increase in the size of the file

    Dear people,

    I just downloaded a video on youtube in a 1080 p .mov file that is about 80 MB.

    After that, I opened the file with Adobe AE, deleted the soundtrack and cut about half of the video because it wasn't what I needed.

    After a 'normal' export, the file is now 7 GB +.

    Can someone explain why and how this happened and how can I remove the sound and cut video without having to deal with these huge increases?

    See you soon!

    Dave is right. You should use first.

    That being said, your basic understanding of the works of the AE on a fundamental basis is wrong.

    You made a video uncompressed to After Effects. It will be bigger than the VERY compressed video from YouTube. AE works with video information completely inflated for each pixel in each image. The size of the file of the incoming video is not relevant. AE will still work with completely full frame, uncompressed information. If you give a highly compressed video source, it decompresses while you work.

    Think of it this way, you can take nothing in your project but a 23 kb JPEG and make a video with her and the result will be a huge file if you return an uncompressed video.

    FAQ: Why my output file is huge?

  • The file size is huge despite the linked files

    Hi, I met a very strange thing.

    I am just placing some raster files in my illustration. I have always used the link option, because I keep my files in good condition and I really like the small files. (The contrary would be the Embed option, which saves the content placed in the file have.)

    But, despite a link to raster instead of embed files, my file have size gets really huge with the placed content. As a general rule, 80 MB with three raster images placed. It includes of course placed in any case files. And they are recorded in a sort of uncompressed format, too; the actual jpg file weigh only about 3 MB in total.

    Even more strange is the fact that if I move the content placed outside my work plan, the size of the file down again normal values (usually 600 kB). Means that the file size is something to do with the preview of the file or something, which (I think) is limited to the artboard.

    This has never been the case with Illsutrator before, has it?

    Is this really how Illustrator should behave, or I have some very odd here?

    InDesign handles content exactly how I like it: no incorporation of all.

    It is the ability to save a PDF compatible file that incorporates the images.

  • [After Effects] Huge file size.

    So I did the short video clip by using simple audio bars and a background. It is 03:58 minutes long in HD 1080 p at 30 FPS and has a gigantic 41.4 Gb file size. Its so big I can't yet play on my PC without it freezing half a second.

    I'm not an expert but I know it's a file size large stupididly for the duration of the video.

    So yes, no matter what way I can lower the size of the file to something under or arround 20 GB?

    FAQ: Why my huge output file, and why didn't he play back smoothly in a media player?

  • Increase the huge file size.

    So I've recently updated for first Pro CC 2015.3. I was doing a video which is 40 seconds long. The only thing in the video is the text and music. I exported using the same setting that I used in first Pro CC 2015. With first Pro CC 2015 the size of the file is usually around 200 MB. With first Pro CC 2015.3, the file size was 4.7 GB. I was wondering if there is anyway to make it back to what it was before. Thank you!

    File size is determined by length, bitrate, and only two things.

    If you want a smaller file, you'll need a shorter program, or a lower rate.

  • Size of the file too large on/after export. Takes too long to download on youtube

    Hey everybody! I still have my question answered so I hope you all can help me with this. I intend to upload my videos to youtube, but there is a problem. The size of the file for the aftermath is far too large, so it takes hours and hours to load up on youtube. The size of origin when it's done export is about 2 000 000 KB... I think this is equivalent to 2 GB! It's huge for youtube. Even after that I have to encode it with media encoder, it is still huge. It does not decrease the size of the file about 2 000 000 KB 500 000 KB, which is in my opinion a GB & half fallen out of the original. But I am looking for the size of the file between 300-500 MB when I upload it to youtube. That's about 0.3 to 0.5 GB. I also used the youtube preset in media encoder export. If anyone can help me identify this problem, I would be very happy. Thank you!

    Oh it's you... with the expression of timecode. Well I see that you move on! close to there. your screenshots are the after effects render settings and output Module that are relevant to make a file without loss is to say good for further editing or encoding later. We were talking about before Media Encoder, which is what you should use to encode the files (NOT the Codec Mpeg4 that we see here). I see that you have about 5 minutes. If you want to download on youtube, you can use these recommended settings table: recommended encoding download - YouTube Help Center settings. under flow, you can see that the recommendation for 1080 video is 8Mbps. you can use these settings in the settings of your SOUL or the preset default value of Youtube, which is twice the speed of transmission. 10 seconds of HD1080 at 8Mbps is around 10 MB of files. 5 minutes will be about 300 MB. If you choose the preset, it will be 600 MB. shipment of 300 MB with a standard 1.5 Mbps download speed will take about 30 minutes.

    If you want to encode your file, you have two options:

    1 make your file using a lossless format: Animation of QT for example - then take this file to SOUL and encode using a setting predefined YouTube

    2. make and encode your files at the same time by choosing your publication by clicking on the composition-> add to the queue of the SOUL. Choose the preset of youtube

    in these two options, you can see about your final file size - this is an estimate

    and after that, you can download your file as expected and win the $$$ that you deserve, if people dig

  • How to reduce the size of a file Adobe Edge animate?

    I'm trying to get the zipped file size up to 150 kb or less, and the closest I can get is 439 kb. I tried the following until now:

    • delete unnecessary files before publishing
    • toggled active .png for lower quality .jpg assets where I can
    • published using the "Host on Adobe CDN runtime files" - I read that it can reduce the size of the file of 80%

    I'm pretty new to the software, and there is certainly a chance that I do not have something good. You can view the file here if you are interested in taking a look. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate your insight!

    Thank you

    Yes, I did! First of all that I have lived and made sure I had my images at the smallest possible file size. Then, after the publication in the destination folder, I went in the 'images' folder and deleted the file "thumbs.db" Edge is automatically created. Makes a HUGE difference in the size of the file! Hope that works for you too!

  • Size of the files in InDesign CS6

    I have a document CS6 who has only 43 pages in A4 format and no images or links, just text and simple diagrams. The file size is huge and takes forever to save and open. What is the problem?

    Huge and forever are pretty vague terms. Try one save slot for the same name, or save/export as IDML (see remove minor corruption by exporting) that will remove old change of information.

  • FLA, the size of the file is too big and will not reduce even after the removal of assets

    I loaded a png sequence in a FLA file. This makes the huge file, so I decided to remove them. However, this has not reduced the size of the DFL. I checked the library and deleted the PNGs with no luck. I even deleted all forms of asset library and deleted all the content of the scene and the timeline, but the FLA is still almost 1 GB. How can I fix it!

    I think that there is another bug in Flash.

    I don't know who marked this as "right answer", but he did not work for me!

    I took a whole new folder full of JPGs and then tried the above suggestion. Then for good measure, deleted ALL the content of the FLA file and emptied the library. I tried and then clear the Cache of publish and save as. The FLA file (empty) is always greater than 50 MB!

  • Size of the file - best practices

    I am putting together my first iPad app DPS and looking for a few tips to keep the manageable file size.

    I did a quick project about 6 pages and it came as a huge 28 MB. My document end will be about 100 pages (x 2 for directions)

    I really did nothing to try to reduce the size of the files in the project, I used PSD images with layers and not a not resize to 1024 x 768. Same thing with any jpg I used. I should do? Also, I did not bother to check if the image was CMYK or RGB. Basicially, I was working on the assumption that the images would be optimized in the process.

    I created the files using JPG because I wanted to use the content viewer Desktop and I get PDF's will help with the size of the file. But that will make a big difference?

    Is the largest part of this DPS overload just 28Mo or will it increase proportionally I've added pages?

    You are looking for just best practices.

    Thank you

    Brian

    A few tips:

    (1) we will be re-sample images to the right size, so don't worry if your sourc eimages are bigger they must do.

    2) publish as PDF. This will make a big difference if you have a lot of text content.

    (3) not to publish two orientations. While we do support the feature, this means you have to do twice the work of layout and the size of the file is quite a bit larger. Choose an orientation that works best for your content, and stick with that. The vast majority of our publishers only portrait or landscape, not both.

  • Huge file

    I need to create a file that is l 24.5 ' x 1.5 ' h. If you where to create this file how do you go about it so it does not end one size huge file when you are finished.

    Thanks in advance

    I am not sure that 01:12 is necessarily the mind game. As a thumb is not itself subdivided into 12 parts normally in order to find a thumb can be difficult.

    If Illustrator had developed the scale which would make sense, but it doesn't have such a feature.

    I have half this size. It is perhaps more familiar looking.

  • How can I reduce the size of a file of numbers?

    I have a file that is too big to 650 MB. It is mostly text. I found 1 sheet which is "inflated".  I tried to copy/paste the columns in a new file, but it ends with lines and additional columns that I copied! It seems to me that if I could have something in layers? How can I reduce the size of the file.

    If it's really just the text that seems really strange.  I repeat what you have already done, copy items to a tim in a new file, and then save after each copy and monitor the size of files.  When you see the file size jump exceptionally fast, do NOT save the new file, and focus on the issue.  What are the benefits?  You paste images into a table as a background fill?
