We have had a few complaints from home users on some of our Online =
mapping, i.e., viewing PDF maps on our P&Z Agenda Website. Takes too long =
to open files if files open at all. So I asked for a 'test' downloading =
the file(s) at home and then opening the files rather than opening from =
our Website: no further comments from that suggestion.*
The Webmaster suggested the following: reduction in file size: remove =
layers: export at lower res. The export at lower res actually 'crunches' =
the text: the less detailed views wouldn't work either (not that much =
smaller size and don't remove basic features that were previously provided =
in a public process: looks like you're trying to hide something!
The question: Does an alternative software (ESRI or Web Design) further =
reduce PDFs for publication on a Website without any loss in detail and =
resolution? The typical size of the PDFs I create range from 0.2-0.8 MBs: =
with DOQQs, that's up to 20 MBs/PDF. In either case the Webmaster has a =
system problem with posting that range of PDFs.
* Note: I only have an Internet viewer at home, no high speed connection. =
If you would care to 'test' the download please do and please forward any =
findings, good, bad, or not? Just scroll down the Agenda list and click =
any PDF 'Location Map' at http://www.co.hernando.fl.us/plan/2004Agendas.htm=
Thanks!
