When you make changes in a document to make it smaller, be sure to "Save
As..." to replace the original. The original may contain extraneous data
that you deleted, but are still in the file for to allow an "Undo".
There's only one level of "Undo" in AppleWorks and Graphic Converter,
but it may be enough to bloat the file.
My tools are a G5 iMac running Mac OS 10.5.2, AppleWorks, and
GraphicConverter. Somehow, even though I've tried to bring down the
file size of the photos to about 400KB each in GC, pasting them into
AW and using the iMac Print function to create the PDF, the file size
seem to ballon up.
