Re: Image size publisher 2003

I put the old one back over night that I first backed up, because I could
not get site to work (wrong place on server)
As soon as my head hit the pillow at bedtime I relished what was wrong so
first thing in the morning I rectified the problem
putting updated site as your instructions, and I"m happy with it, it could
be better but its acceptable and can be easily updated
Actually the pub file I was given is 39megs not 18 , and was reduced to 3 on
compression
I don't have the pub 2000 file, but I opened up the 39 meg 2003 file and all
images are set at 50%

What is pub 2007 like anything new worthwhile?

Thanks again for all the help

John

John,

Check one more thing for me. Assuming that you have a copy of the original
Pub 2000 file, open it in Pub 2003. Then go to one or more of the images,
and select it...just click on it once. Then go to Format > Picture, and
the Size tab. Look under Scale, and tell me if that picture is at 100%, or
what.

Hi John,

I haven't had much time, but I did look at the site while you had the Pub
2000 version up. (That was smart of you keeping the backup HTML) It
appeared to me that even in that version, the image quality was lacking.
Yes, they loaded fairly quickly, but I suspect that when the originals
were inserted they were not at 100% size, or something. Anyway I see that
you have the Pub 2007 version up again.

It appears that compressing the Pub file was successful, and helped to a
point, with the overall size of your HTML output reduced to 3 megs. Good
job.

Did you also uncheck the VML and PNG options?

Are you satisfied with the quality of the images as they look when viewed
on the internet now, in the Pub 2007 version? If yes, are you just
wanting them to load even more quickly? From my perspective, they look
pretty good...once they load.

Let me check on a working assumption...you were given a Pub 2000 file,
and have been updating this file with Pub 2003, correct? You do not have
access to the original images?

I ask this because from my experience when I have opened a Pub 2000 file
in Pub 2003, and then tried to produce HTML files, I have ended up with
some unpredictable results, especially with images. Answer the above
questions, and I may have a workaround that I want to test to see if
perhaps it would help.

As to your other question about being able to change just the Rates page,
there are several possibilities. If you are using HTTP uploading
protocols, and your webhost has FrontPage Service Extensions, and are
using the incremental uploading option, then if you made a change to the
Rates page, in theory only those changes would be uploaded, not the
entire site. I say in theory, because I am quoting David Bartosik
here...I haven't tried it myself. Go to Help under Publisher and type in
"incremental" to read about this feature. He has also said that you have
to go through the upload process a few times before it starts working.
Read more here:
http://msmvps.com/blogs/dbartosik/pages/80555.aspx

You also have the option of pulling that one page out of your main
Publisher file, and producing it with a second Publisher file, and
building the site with multiple files. This would mean that you could
then update the Rates page without touching the main site. To see an
example of this approach, here is a link to another poster who has built
both an English and a Spanish version of his website with two Publisher
files, and linked the two together. Click on the English button in the
upper left corner to see the English version:
http://www.somoscapazes.org/index.html

Here is an article by David Bartosik explains the method: "Building a web
site with multiple Publisher web publication files":
http://msmvps.com/blogs/dbartosik/archive/2006/01/16/81264.aspx
If you want to pursue this approach, there are several ways you could
apply it to your site.

I want to thanks you David for all the help
I followed your advice reducing images pub file was 18 meg after
compressing it is 3 megs
When I pre view as a webpage it works great, but when I upload to server
it does not display, its a server setting or somethig

Since I could not get it to work I uploaded backup that I made before I
started screwing arround
everything works now fast as they are small jpg's, but of course its not
updated
the only page they ever need to change is the rates and dates to update
the calendar bookings
is there a way I could just change this page without exporting the whole
site to web
or an easy work arround?

John, I think I/we have overloaded you with too much information. You
do not edit the images AFTER you Publish to The Web, and produce the
HTML. If you do not have the original images, then forget about trying
to optimize them before inserting them into your Publisher doc.

Let's back up and take this step by step.

1. First step is to open your Publisher file, go to Tools > Options >
Web Tab and uncheck "Rely on VML..." and "Allow PNG...".

2. Then read the article: "Compress graphics file sizes to create
smaller Publisher Web pages":
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011266301033.aspx Then
compress the graphics in your Publisher document as per that article.

3. Use FTP to access the web host server, and delete all the old
Publisher HTML files. This would include your index.htm file and the
index_files folder.

4. Go back to your Publisher file, and Publish to the Web, produce a
new index.htm file and index_files folder and use FTP to upload these
new HTML files.

5. Post back when you are done, and we will look at your site again.

How do I make publisher publish jpg instead of png?
Just relized reason for being so slow
I only have publisher file, not the seperate images
If I import png then pub exports png is that how it works?

In Firefox they load much much faster
Can I convert them from png to jpg in irfranview then substitute file
after I have published, or must I import jpg's into pub first?

So far I like 03 a lot...so does my printer buddy. He says it's got
more
commercial stuff. I'll find out soon enough I have to finish my
non-profit's
Playbill in 30 days.

The copy I have came with Digital Imaging 10, which I haven't
installed yet.
If I doo I think my machine will be on image editing overload, but
am
tempted to try it. What can I say? Hi my name is Rob and I'm a
software
junkie. Hi Rob!

I have Elements as well. But, still end up going back to PS6.

Oh,,,dang I just realized we're wayyyy ot on this..sorry.
