You don't. Both PostScript and PDF are programatic formats. This means that there isn't, say, a description of the lines on a page stored in the file, but a program describing how to draw them. Conversion is thus, difficult. Specifically, ghostscript is converting from one _programming_language_ to another; and you are worrying about the size :) -- Crutcher Dunnavant, Red Hat OS Devel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> passwd: anoncvs, cvs -z6 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/rhl login cvs -z6 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/rhl co printconf _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
