Adobe Acrobat 3D Version 8

Quickstart: Reduce PDF file size

Reducing the size of PDFs improves their performance—particularly when they’re being accessed on the web.

  1. Choose Document > Reduce File Size.
  2. Select the version compatibility you need, and click OK.
  3. Specify a filename and location, and click Save.

If you’re certain that all your users use Acrobat 8 or Adobe Reader 8, limiting compatibility to the latest version can further reduce file size.
