PDF file gets bigger

[jollyrgr]

When I compress my 2004 powerpoint presentation for a handout to PDF it
grows in size by 4X. How can I make this file size manageable to send
on the interrnet?

Hey Jolly,

There are several options. You can Save As Web Page, which creates a
mini web site for you.

There's a product called Impatica that does a nice job of making things
small.

How are you creating the PDF? The operating system's built in PDF
support doesn't do as much compression as Adobe Acrobat's. Another
option I heard about recently is PDF Shrink by Agapo
