I have a file that doesn't have a lot of stuff in it, but the file size seems to be quite large in proportion. Is there a way that I can use DBList, and export the data to a spreadsheet? It would be a lot easier to search through than the F2 way.
View 4 RepliesI have successfully printed a dwg to a pdf but instead of its file size being 450k it is 1.4 m. This makes sending pdfs via email too cumbersome. It seems that even though the outcome is B&W somewhere along the line "it" thinks it is Color. I noticed that in Page Setup I no longer have the option of "DWG to PDF.pc3".

View 1 Replies View RelatedIve got this blank DWG with a file size of 4MB... ive ERASE > ALL on all layouts, then PURGED a few times, i cant see any layer filters. The STATUS command says it has 241007 objects. but i cant find or get rid of them.
Take a look at this DWG and let me know how i can clear it out and reduce the file size?

When I choose the Liquify option from the Filter menu, the Liquify tool opens and I have access to the custom set of Liquify tools. Unlike almost any other tool where you select a brush size, the Liquify tool requires you to modify the position of a slider rather than selecting the brush size dynamically by right-clicking.
The problem is that the brush size selector control goes from 0 to 15,000px diameter. In order to make effective use of a 15,000 pixel liquify push tool, you'd have to have a really large image. Perhaps there is a case where someone at some time used a 15,000 px diameter nudge brush in the Liquify tool, but in my nearly 20 years of using Photoshop, I have never come across the need for a brush that large.
Regardless, because the selector uses a linear scale, it is really difficult to select a small brush size (say less than 100px) without manually incrementing the slider.
I would really like to see Adobe standardize the tool size/preset selector so that it is always available via the context menu (or equivalent) and that an option exists to enable relative slider values or percentage slider values in incremental selectors like brush size. Percentages could be setup where 100% was the largest side of the current image and then brush sizes could be selected via percentage of your image (of course converting to pixels, but the scale would be percentage-based). Even an exponential scale that favored the smaller values would be useful. Or perhaps, movable caps that would allow you to set your own Max and Min values that would rock.
I might be able to select more appropriately scaled brushes in the Liquify tool when I am working with images where a 15,000 pixel brush head is unreasonable.
why I have a part file that is almost 12MB in size yet it contains absolutely no features? I would attach the part but it's too big to upload.

I want to scale a layer so that it's 10% of the width of the full image. It's going to be part of an action, so I can't just do the math, and do it manually.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to prepare a very simple poster (one color for back ground and one for the font, no further editing at all) but it has to be around 50x50inch size which is big. I have never worked with such a large images before hence my question.
When I click 'new' and then set print size to 50x50 and 150ppi resolution the file size is around 250mb. Does it really have to be this big? It seems like my laptop cant handle files this big.
Is there some way around it? Vectors? Inscape?

Is my illustrator running slow? I have an i7 3770K, 16gb ram, gtx 660i 2g, h100i, ax1200i and maximus formula v. I'm running dual 24" 1920x1080 monitors. File size is 800x600 pixals with 5 layers and 100+ paths in each layer. Is the program running slow because the file is too big or is there a problem with illustrator?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have used Gimp a bit, and before that PS quite a bit. I have never had to use the size constraints for sizing a file to fit a large format printer. I will be getting one any day so I would like to be prepared as much as possible. When I was at another shop, the owner used one of the cropping functions to set the finish print size and then she could move the box around to locate the best print area and remainder to be cropped. She was using PS. I would assume I could do it also in Gimp, but have not found a way to do it yet. What am I missing. Even if the printer software will do it on the printer, I would like to be able to show my customer on a PC monitor what they might expect.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis problem transfer from one file to another by copying some of it's content to another file. Any command were done just to try to reduce a file but still isn't working.
The problem became serious when each file became at-least 200mb per 2D dwg. Our Tech support said it was a kind of Number virus where it alters the log in each file to have a bigger file size.
Though this happens only in CAD, and certain files/projects were affected. The old and previous file unused where still intact. Only those new ones that we are currently accessing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been working on 3D models and noticed when i take a circle and extrude it along a path (usually a spline) it adds a lot to a file size. The objects are used as electrical conductors on power poles. After a few city blocks of this the model file size becomes basically unusable.
So my question is why does extruding a circle along a curved path increase the file size so drastically and is there another alternative to keep the file size down?
when i bind the xref's the file size is increasing up to 50mb. the size of the file before binding is 4.5mb. i tried all the options whic ppl given in the discussion here. purged(all regeapps,zero txts etc.),wblock even some lisps. but all in vain. even i tried to audit but it took 2hrs and nothing happened. this dwg containing only lines poly lines, blocks, txts etc. no images and not even dence hatches also. 1500 drawings like this. i have to submit the softcopy soon.

Last month, I was drafting a simple 2d floor plans for my school assignment but the cad file size became huge and started to crash. After consulting my lecturers, I did a few things to attempt to solve the overly huge file size.
1. Redrew the drawing from scratch
2. Purged both old & new drawings
3.Auditted both old & new drawings
4. Saved each floor plan as a separate drawing so as to reduce file size
However, the same problem occurred and the new drawings also became too huge & slow to work with.
I got the CAD file 18 MB in size although I do audit, purge, recover, wblock but cannot fix this. The problem was resolved when i created new file in ACAD 2011 and copy all information to.
I mean ACAD 2013 may contain something affect to file size.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBy working in millimetres instead of metres will slow things up with my file. My 0,0 point refers to the actual survey co-ordinates which I need to continue to use as regularly share my file with the surveyor and we need to be working on the same 0,0 point. Because I am working in mm 0,0 is therefore further from my drawing that it would be in m. Will changing to metres make a significant difference to me? My file has 34 layout pages and even more viewports which I would have to re scale if I changed the units in my drawings or is there a simpler way of doing this than rescaling the drawing by a factor of 0.001?
