Setting image optimization preferences
If your .notebook files contain large pictures (pictures over 1 MB in file size), your files could open and
run slowly. You can reduce the pictures’ file size without noticeably reducing their quality. As a result,
your .notebook files’ overall file sizes will be smaller and the files will open and run more quickly.
To set image optimization preferences
1. Select Notebook > Preferences.
A dialog box appears.
2. Press Defaults.
3. Select one of the following options in the Image optimization drop-down list:
o
Ask every time I insert a large image to have the option of reducing or not reducing large
pictures’ file sizes when you insert them.
o
Never change the resolution of inserted images to never reduce large pictures’ file
sizes when you insert them.
o
Always change image resolution to optimize file size to always reduce large pictures’
file sizes when you insert them.
4. Press OK.
Manually reducing the size of large pictures
If you selected Ask every time I insert a large image in the Image Optimization drop-down list, you
can manually reduce the size of large pictures when you insert those pictures in your file or
afterwards.
To reduce the size of a large picture when inserting it in a file
1. Insert the picture as described in Inserting pictures on page 73.
After you press Open, the Image Optimization dialog box appears.
