What can I do to keep jpg compression in pdf files due to useing Preview 7.0?
Preview is saving it's own version of file and file is 6 times larger than it was before.
First it happened after puting notes, now it's enough to open the file.
Info:
Preview 7.0, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), autosave without jpg compression
how do I get Preview to be the default application in opening pdf files?

What is the best compromise between size and qaulity when recording from DVD to HD, if editing is not required ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I right click a folder and select "Compress", it goes to about 99% and stalls... Doesn't budge, no beachball, it just doesn't move forever. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.2, anyone else having this issue? I did a clean install.

There are some technical details about this new compression in Ars Technica's Snow Leopard review but no details about how to use it for your own files. So I looked through the Snow Leopard command line tools and found this option for ditto:

do you know a http proxy server software (osx or linux) with gzip compression ? What I want to achieve is connect with my iPhone via this proxy to limit the 3G data usage.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis week I upgraded my Macbook Pro 13 (2011) from Snow Leopard to Mavericks 10.9.2. Initially I had problems with email crashing and Preview not launching. I then found the upgrade to 10.9.4 and installed that. This cured the email issue but I still cannot launch Preview.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have updated my system to OS X Maverick and have lost the ability to "print preview" my files before saving. I frequently save files as jpeg files, as well as pdf. I have found that many of our flyers print better when saved as a jpeg but since the print preview option has been eliminated, I cannot save anything as a jpeg.

I've always backed up the DVDs I've purchased for when the originals get scratched. On a PC I had a decent workflow that involved a decrypter, a compressor, and Roxio burning ROM. Now on a Mac I'm a bit lost. I've used handbrake to rip DVDs to be playable in iTunes and have Burn installed, but there seems to be something missing, namely a compression tool and the ability to keep the original DVDs menu structure, etc. I know about Mactheripper but am lost after that. Shed some light on this for me?

About a week ago my preview program has not been working properly. Whenever i try and put text into my pdf documents the preview program shows the ‘spinning wheel of death’ at the point of saving…(I don’t know what else to call that multicoloured candy-looking spinning thing) It does not freeze up with ALL pdf…just some of them. I was thinking about deleting preview and then reinstalling it..but my mac system does not allow me. One perhaps important thing is: when i edit the ‘stubborn’ pdf files, and then press ‘save’ nothing happens. I have to press save twice…then the program becomes inactive.

Since the last OS update Mail does not like to preview. When I get new mail or scroll through recent messages the preview pane show "Loading.." or just dark gray (no content). If I double click and open the message in a window I get the same result.
Tried Genius Bar. They deleted a plist file and it work for a few minutes. Tried to Rebuild.

I have used the standard "Reduce File Size" Quartz filter but find the resulting files way too grainy. I want to have a filter that is a stand between but cannot seem to make a filter using the ColorSync utility that applies to PDFs. I want a free method to do this of course and am pretty confused as to why Apple hasn't given the user the option to control the output of the PDF in Preview. That is basic PDF viewer material.

I'm trying to add a signature to a document. I've discovered that I can do this in Preview. I've used the FaceTime camera to scan my signature, saved it and I can see it when I click on Tools > Annotate > Signature. I can't add it to my document though. I've read that I need Preview to Show Edit Toolbar but this option is greyed out. The Edit button on the toolbar is also greyed out. I created the document in Word.

I used to open my printer job as the item was printing and it would open with preview and then I could click on it and mail a copy to myself. I since installed the latest OSX Maverick and now my printer job opens with something else and I can't do anything with it except see what I am printing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedRunning Preview 7.0, upon opening a PDF I am able to perfectly use the built-in search feature to search text made readable by OCR. After adding a text-box/annotating within the document, however, the search feature is messed up: the document will return matching hits for my term, but they aren't highlighted within the document body and I get the "funk" alert noise when clicking on results in left-hand results column.
Attempted fix: Printed the document as PDF. Searching this document only will return results if text that I search was typed in one of the text boxes I added.

I use an Olympus OMD-E10 but I cannot see the .ORF RAW on my 2011 iMac with Preview. I get: "Preview currently does not support this raw file format." My Macbook Air reads the files OK. Both run 10.9.4. Is there a way to check that Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.06 is actually installed?

I would like to change the default text substitution settings for my annotations in Preview. Specifically, I want to disable smart quotation substitutions in my notes. I often copy-paste them into Word files, and I want them free of this reformatting. I know how to disable quotation mark substitution in a given pdf, but I would really like to disable this feature for all pdfs by default.

I am a student and I use Preview to read my textbooks as most are available as PDF documents. However, since upgrading to Mavericks I am having trouble with very basic features that worked in Mountain Lion. Specifically, the table of contents no longer seems to function properly. My books are often well over a thousand pages, and thumbnail view is practically useless. I require the table of contents in order to navigate efficiently. My problem is that (since updating to the new OS last night) I am no longer able to hide the table of contents.
I will clarify further. In Mountain Lion, if one were to use preview in full screen mode, the user could select "Table of Contents" from the View menu and then select "Content Only" from the same menu. This would hide the sidebar. And upon mousing over the left edge of the screen the sidebar would pop out, displaying the table of contents and allowing successful navigation. Now, in Mavericks, after going through the same process, mousing over the edge of the screen causes the sidebar to pop out, but only displays thumbnails. Not the table of contents.
The 15" MBP screen is too small to display two pages side by side with the sidebar taking up 1/4 the screen. Hiding the sidebar is the only way to fit what I need on the screen. I am constantly flipping from page to page and need the table of contents handy. Why would Apple break this functionality?
Since i updated to maverick last week i got an issue with the Mac Preview app, it opens the documents ok, but when opening several files at the time, the thumbnails are all scrambled and not showing the miniature of the selected file.
if i click on the thmbnails area and navigate with the keyboard's arrows it allows me to go through the open files, all files open ok but the thumbnails is the only part that is having this issue.
I have deleted the com.apple.Preview from ~LibraryContainers but still having the issue.
In my old laptop (Mac OS 10.6.8) I could see the preview panel on top of the Mail. Now I can not find a way to move it from the left hand side. Now on Mac OS 10.9 I have Mail 7.3 and there does not seem to have an option on where to put it.

For reasons which escape me, since I rebooted yesterday, I have been unable to launch TextEdit, Preview or Pages - they just say not responding when their icon is ctrl-clicked in the Dock. I just checked Numbers and Keynote, which I have never used and after their initial welcome screen, they too became unresponsive. As far as I can tell, GarageBand, iPhoto and probably others in iLife are unaffected, neither are Mail and Safari.
I found that a similar problem was being experienced a few years ago by some people using TextEdit and Preview and it was solved by re-signing the application in Terminal. I have tried that but it hasn't worked. I have repaired permissions and I'm just downloading the Mavericks installer so that I can make a USB installer and re-install OS X 10.9.3.
I am downloading which may save me the trouble of re-installing OS X 10.9.3, I'd be very grateful.
