Reducing File Size In Adobe Acrobat Pdf For Printing

I used to reduce my PDF file size with Acethinker PDF Converter, it works fairly well for me.

It can be annoying for you and for your PDF viewers, so you should do something about that.

However, if you didnt make the PDF yourself, you can still do something about the file size: compress it using Adobe Acrobat Pro or an online tool (you have plenty of options, some listed here ) By following the steps below you will reduce the PDF file size (compression) without distortions or cropping.

If you plan to print it out, we recommend you to send the original PDF.

Lets get started Open your file in Adobe Acrobat Pro Go to File Save as other Optimized PDF Check the audit for space usage to see an analysis of your PDF, with all the elements that are used in your file.

Youll find the audit request button at the top right side of the popin.

Images are often in a higher resolution that necessary, so they are going to slow down all the PDF-related processes.

If images are a big part of your document, you need to start by fixing their size.

Downsample to lower the resolution of images by merging some pixels into larger pixels.

PPI pixels per inch; how many pixels should be displayed per inch of screen space.

Compression file size reduction made through eliminating unnecessary pixel data.

JPEG and JPEG 2000 are both great compression options for photography.

Quality The Medium quality is recommended for the JPEG compression, as this will not bloat the file size, but it will render a good image quality for your web PDF.

Another thing that you should do to your PDF is to enable the Fast web view.

It will load each page at a time, rather than the entire PDF at once, resulting in much quicker loading.

You can check this option by going to Acrobat Preferences Categories Documents Save as optimizes for Fast Web View OK.

I tried to just the reduce size in Adobe (using the free trial for now) and Optimize tool.

What am I missing Reply Jani March 28, 2019 at 2:55 pm Hi Corrina, so sorry to hear about your problem.

Since I dont have access to your PDF it is impossible to give you very specific instructions on how to re-save your images and re-export, but the first step would be taking at look at the individual size of each image used in your PDF, and try to work on that first.

Thanks for taking the time for making this tutorial, really appreciated.
