Houston we have a problem..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

One of the PC’s here in the office just went from having over 400MB free on the C: drive to 4MB free in a matter of a few minutes. Apparently, using the graphics software to create a .pdf out of scanned documents left behind a handful of 99MB temp files, not to mention the 25MB final .pdf files. I got rid of those and then did some quick user training in how to scan something in different ways than a bitmap, and use the PDF Writer print driver to make .pdf files out of them. 50KB files work a whole lot better than 25MB ones!

 

User training, the job that’s never finished! 🙂
