This is almost certainly the case but also the file is probably over specc'd if it's primary purpose is web distribution. At only two pages (assuming A4 or Letter size, and a reasonable font, 5Mb is way too big and the PDF could probably benefit greatly from optimising the images within the PDF (greater compression, reducing dpi etc) This can be done from within Acrobat 6, from within Acrobat 5 if Photoshop is installed on the same machine, or by opening in Photoshop and remaking the PDF. dean laffan r e a l w o r l d p r o d u c t i o n s 6 7 l i t t l e g e o r g e s t, f i t z r o y m e l b o u r n e, a u s t r a l i a 3 0 6 5 home/office +613-9419-3966 Mobile 0418-525-315 -- To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html
