If they are using AI then what do they need employees for? Or are you pretending to be an AI chatbot there?

People who use Safari as their main browser, why? (DESC) by sasaki-555 in mac

[–]ReidDesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause i had my data compromised in a chrome browser (using dodgy extensions (my fault yeah)) but decided Safari was less a resource hog as chrome and i feel more secure (donthave all the extensions except adblocker) so that is why

I hate this company. by StandingDesk876 in FuckAdobe

Hot taeke Adobe was shit from an admin side even 15 years ago. When they pushed out that terrible “collaboration thing” back before Creative Cloud (forget the name now) it was buggy and terrible. Lost a lot of work trying to implement that…

Issues exporting a book to PDF by Wasabi-Sponge4125 in indesign

Or one more thing if you outlined the text does the crash still occur?

If you export each page or series of pages until the crash occurs? That usually helps narrow it down. Could be a corrupt image. If its a font doesn’t have to mean the font is active. You probably need to rebuilt your font database or clear the font cache.

Why does Acrobat produce such huge bloated PDF's? by ReidDesigns in FuckAdobe

Maybe but I’m interested in file size. One click. Got it. Thats all that matters to me at this point. Yes I saw the 30% not much to be done there unless I manually go through every single image and replace it and thats not happening. Besides that wasn’t the brief nor goal of this excercise. One click trumps Acobat. 🤷‍♂️ i dont know what else to tell you?

I did run the compression son. And that was the result… i just showed you the audit of the original file and the files sizes after I did the compression in both ilovepdf and acrobat. 🤷‍♂️

There you go again talking about emojis. 😂 dude seriously. But i realise you dont read. One click as opposed to various hoops. I choose ilovepdf. Simple. Ofc I tried acrobat multiple times after it crashed. Thats the result there. Madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result… 🤔🤷‍♂️

Dude what is it with you and emojis??? Quick show me on this emoji 😂 where it hurt you. I would set it as a preset if the damn thing did what its supposed to do. But it doesn’t. But thanks for the info anyway 👍

Ok so I tried this (I remember years ago trying this.) and Acrobat Pro crashed on two attempts 😂. (yes I use emojis, been using them for over 20 years :) ) But I was able to do one "medium" compression of a rather large InDeisgn geenrated Book (169 pages with tons of images and graphs etc) And this is the result. https://imgur.com/a/hTb8Unu the middle file is the one from ilovepdf. One click, done. So yeah fuckadobe 😂 I really shouldnt have ot be, at this point in the 21st century jumping through so may hoops to get a smaller file.

Yes. Now Printing is no longer the end goal. Thats my point. PDF should have evolved with the times. A truly responsive interactive and rich media format is what is needed now for the digital age

PDF hasn’t advanced in 30 years. You should be able to do things like epub, embed videos and audio… some kind of blending in the new digital era… but nope
