The file size of the Word/PDF conversion is 97kb, and the OO/PDF conversion is 402kb. I use a personal limit of 300kb for document size when I send out the newsletter, otherwise it takes too long for the dialup users to download the document.
I would like to know if there is a way to get around this. I tried to zip the file and the resultant OO pdf file was 397kb. I don't need to zip the XP/pdf, it is small enough already.
Hi Mark, maybe you could try ps2pdf: in OOo you print "to file" as a postscript file. Then in a console cd into the directory where you saved the .ps file and type ps2pdf your-ps-file.ps your-pdf-name.pdf I don't know about the sizes (just give it a try), but I experienced that pdf's produced this way are much better quality than directly using OOo's pdf functionality. regards Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com erotic art photos: http://www.bauer-nudes.com/en/linux.html Madagascar special: http://www.fotograf-basel.ch/madagascar/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
