I'm having a Word/Acrobat bloat problem. All of a sudden, the PDFs created out of Word with the Adobe PDF writer have bloated. The Word source file is around 40M. I use smallest file size for the PDF setting. The PDFs used to be around 8M, but have since bloated up to 31M. I use the same file on my laptop and the PDF file is only 8-9M. Both the laptop and the desktop have Office 2003 and Acrobat 6 Standard. The laptop uses XP Home and the Desktop uses XP Professional. I reloaded Office on the desktop to no avail. My next inclination is to remove Acrobat and all it's updates, clean the registry and reload everything.
Anybody got any other ideas..... It also takes up to two hours to create a PDF from a large Word file...seems entirely too long. Have I also told you how much I "love" Word....
