I don't know if it is an Evernote BUG or design flaw, but in either case it needs to be fixed. Please report this as a bug using the EN Support Ticket (link below).

Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,117 Posted September 17, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted September 17, 2014 flyee, what version of EN Mac are you running? What Mac OS? I'm running EN Mac 5.2.2, and I don't have an option to view PPT inline. EDIT: Ok, after about 10 min I have the "inline" view option, and EN has created a PDF 126X the size of my PPTX file.

flyee 4 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 @JMichael I currently use 5.6.0b9, but the problem occurs far more earlier (before EN migrate to "new" database). OS is 10.9. Link to comment
Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,117 Posted September 17, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted September 17, 2014 flyee, since you're on the Beta circuit, can you upgrade to Beta 10 and test with a new Note with a new PPT attachment? Jack claims it's been fixed: Yes JM, that was fixed in an earlier beta. You'll find that they get generated at a reasonable size. It was a bug in OSX's quicklook.Those PDF previews were likely generated by an older version of Evernote. We generate them once and leave them (even if they're huge). Link to comment
cuco 2 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Attaching my vote for the same issue I reported here. https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/67211-en-database-grows-huge-32gb-single-15mb-note-is-3gb-in-database/ Link to comment
flyee 4 Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 JM, Jack, and cuco: I've updated to beta 10 and try on a new ppt note. It seems right now, the generated pdf is about 8MB for an 11MB ppt. I'm deleting all caches and re-caching everything. Let you know later. It should take a while. Link to comment
flyee 4 Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hi JM, Jack and cuco, THANK YOU GUYS !! Great news! Beta10 definitely fixed this bug! After re-caching, the biggest inline preview is about 4x the original slides. Link to comment
