Compressing printables
|

Hi everybody,
I was trying to upload a printable but couldn �t - and then I realized that it was too big; 847 kB.
What is it I do to make it smaller? I have read about it in here but can �t find the thread.
Thanks so much in advance for your help.

If you use pics, they take up less space if you first save them to your pc and then insert them. You can also double click on the pics, then click on format, then compress and OK, OK... It can reduce the size of your wss in a really noticeable way. |

Thank you very much, Anitarobi. I did that and now it �s 658 kB. Is there anything else I can do? |

I had a similar problem and I didn �t want to compromise on any of the activities. So I sent it in 2 parts.

I think I have a solution for you! If you want to upload your file as a picture, first open that picture with "paint", then click "save as", then, in the "save as type" section click jpeg, jpg. This will reduce 20-25 times the initial dimensions. Best of luck!
