Jaggies On The Web Page

[Joe Wood]

How about Plans Pages where I email them about 15 Pages, each to be printed on 8.5 x 11" paper? Should they be png or tif?

do I need to export them at 6000 pix wide, then resized to what size? I'd like to keep file size down, for emailing.

These are nice. Why not send pdf files? Are you using LayOut?

[Joe Wood]

No just exported jpg images. Resized to 2000

I don't like pdf because when viewing them all in a folder you can't click Next to view the next pdf.

Here is your model exported as pdf
pdf = 56K
tif = 1107K
png = 409K

Just for show, I zoomed in with the pdf reader and then took a snap shot of it and saved as png.

Personally - I think you could create a catalog of pdf's. It certainly is smaller.

what pixel width were the tif and png? I like to be able to scroll thru the images.

[Joe Wood]

I Export> 2d pdf with that last image I posted and it's 305 kb, that's alot bigger then yours.

Do I have these export setting correct?

[Garry K]

I turned off Edge Profiles in the model and also during export.

Oh Profiles Off much better thanks for the great graphics advice,
but with that image above I'm still getting a 304kb pdf, why is yours so much smaller at 56k ?

[Garry K]

I opened the example_corner_construction.skp file in Sketchup version 16.1.1449 64 bit.
The skp file was saved in Sketchup 8.0.1

The only other thing I did was as I said earlier - Turn off profiles.

Other that that I did nothing to reduce the file size.

I tried that same beam connection skp and got 56k too, so my other elevation file must have more 'data' on it.
