[QUOTE="Khaalis, post: 1452638, member: 2167"] 1. The system you recommend in the thread - PDF995 then using the GSV convert. I may be getting my hands on Acrobat6 and will try that as well if I can get a copy. 2. Resolutions as follows (Size, Resolution) JPG1) 535x625, 72 (Grey Scale; 8 Bit Depth) JPG2) 600x812, 72 (Grey Scale; 8 Bit Depth) JPG3) 299x345, 72 (Grey Scale; 8 Bit Depth) 3) I only processed 600 and 300. I will try 120 & 72 tonight and let you know. 4) Yes I fiddled with all 6 actually. These I did one at a time and all 3 at a time. DownsampleColorImages, DownsampleGrayImages, and DownsampleMonoImages. (Set them to true) but the picture quality degraded too much. These I tried to alter but saw no immediate changes but will try again. Find ColorImageResolution, GrayImageResolution, and MonoImageResolution Thanks again for the help and suggestions. [i]{EDIT}[/i] Worked on this more. There is no 120 Main Res only 300 and 72. Raw Word Doc = 434Kb Raw PDF convert using PDF995 = 1.74 Conversions @ All 3 Downsamples set to True Main 72 / Color 72, Mono & Grey at 96 = 2.02 Main 300 / Color 72, Mono & Grey at 96 = 1.73 Main 600 / Color 72, Mono & Grey at 96 = 1.73 Main 300 or 600 / All 3 72 = 1.68 (but the graphics are very poor) Main 300 / Color & Mono 72, Grey 96 = 1.68 (acceptable graphics) 1.68 seems to be the lowest I can get it. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
