.pdf file too large
We have a new scanner in our office. For some reason, it seems that it
produces .pdf files with a much, much larger number of bytes. Now, many of our files can't be sent to certain recipients because of their size. Do you have an opinion as to why this is? Could it be because the scanner is not as high-end pricewise as the previous one? Is there some kind of magic I can perform to get the files smaller in size? Thanks for all you do!!! |

Sorry. This isn't a Word issue but a scanner or an Adobe Acrobat question.
Don't have an opinion. You might try asking in a relevant newsgroup. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

There is a newsgroup for Acrobat. They might have some suggestions for you.

Charles Kenyon shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.newusers:
Sorry. This isn't a Word issue but a scanner or an Adobe Acrobat question. Don't have an opinion. You might try asking in a relevant newsgroup. Correct answer. However, check the dpi settings on your scanner. A lower dpi setting gives smaller files with lower quality. Try to find a balance between file size and acceptable quality. -- Amedee Van Gasse using XanaNews 1.17.4.1 If it has an "X" in the name, it must be Linux? |
