Howdy,
The PDF option has produced some ideas but not significant.
Perhaps there is a different approach.
The need was to reduce the size of a PC Word document.
for transmitting via email.
Does anybody have any better approach than the one suggested by Edward
Arrowsmith ...
using yousendit . Good ifdea but I can't see yet how they pay
there way .

Hi,
We were asked to turn a PC-using friend's MSoft Word docs into PDFs to
make them smaller (she needs to email them to multiple recipients).
However, the PDF created by printing under OSX (10.2.8) is much larger
(5.2Mb) than the original Word document (2.6Mb).
We tried the same file on our other Mac (OS10.3.3) and produced a
slightly smaller file (5.1Mb).
Does anyone know if this is standard for PDFs created in this way, and
if Acrobat produces smaller PDFs than those created under OSX?
Cheers,
Kaye and Geoff
