I then took my final draft Word document that I intend to send out (produced on WinXP [4500kb] that produced a pdf of 140kb) and saved it as a word document in linux from OO. It came out as 3.6MB. Yeah, MB, not KB. I took that document and printed it to postscipt (2.7MB). I converted that to pdf and it came in at 2.2MB.
Can you tell me which software you used to produced the document in Windows? I would like to do some testing. The files size you are getting looks fishy to me. The OO one I expected to be larger, but 3.6 MB is insane. The one you produced from Windows XP is smaller than I expected- are you sure fonts are embedded (you can check that in the document properties in a pdf reader)? Charles
