We have a 50 page two color print catalog that we PDF and use for download from our web site. I am in the process of creating our third version of it.
When the first version was created years ago using Acrobat 3 or 4, file size was about 1.5 MB. The second version (and the one presently residing on our web site) was created using Acrobat 5 distilled out at 2.3 MB. Now, using Acrobat 8 Professional with the "Smallest Size" preset, the smallest size I can get is 14 MB.
What gives? Why has every successive version of Acrobat given me a larger file of the same size 50 page catalog?
Is there anything I can do in Acrobat 8 to reduce the 14 MB size to something in the neighborhood of its present 2.3 MB size. (You can see it if you like at http://www.azusaeng.com )
(FWIW, I believe the first version of the catalog was created in PageMaker, the second in Quark Epxress and my present version is InDesign.)
Thanks in advance.
Peace Jimmy
