I wonder if anyone has experience with PAGES in iWork?
I am at the hair pulling stage............
Working from an empty template except for a masthead and other
common details (start size about 1MB) I have a 30 page document
that comes out at 7MB. I have checked every picture and graphic and
I cannot account for that size. The text should not account for too
much size?
I make a PDF by the export function in either Best, Better or Good
modes and end up with 5.6MB. I open in Acrobat 8 Pro, re-save and
can shave off a bit, but not enough. Note that Acrobat will NOT
open from Pages - you get a Macintosh error msg
Can any one help? I have used the template before and achieve a 2
- 3MB PDF end result.

Hi Bill,
When you export to PDF
Best - the resolution of images isn’t scaled down.
Better - images are downsampled to 150 dpi.
Good - images are downsampled to 72 dpi.
When you export to PDF with "Good", is the file size still too large?
