Sorry. This isn't a Word issue but a scanner or an Adobe Acrobat question.
Don't have an opinion. You might try asking in a relevant newsgroup.

We have a new scanner in our office. For some reason, it seems that it
produces .pdf files with a much, much larger number of bytes. Now, many
of
our files can't be sent to certain recipients because of their size.

Do you have an opinion as to why this is? Could it be because the scanner
is not as high-end pricewise as the previous one? Is there some kind of
magic I can perform to get the files smaller in size?

Thanks for all you do!!!
