Hi Justin,

The problem here is that the later versions of Word produce extremely
verbose postscript files en-route to the PDFs. Older versions of Word
generated much more compact output.

For compactness, you would probably do better to have postscript files
generated professionally. These could then be converted to relatively small
PDFs.

Cheers

Hi There,

I've got a huge task of pdf'ing 13000 mail merge documents... however that
part of the process i've been able to automate. The problem is that the
pdf's
that are generated from the post script files are exceptionally large! The
problem appears to be because of the tables in the documents... Is there
any
way of making the word document tables more efficient? especially with the
use of dotted lines!
Thanks in advance!
