Why does Convert to PDF increase a Word doc size by 5x into PDF?
The PDF that Word 2003 makes increases the file size of the doc. What
explains this odd about face? Has MS sabatoged the standard or have I yet to see a setting in Word 2003 that will return PDF to its place of small virtue? -- Purpose of life is happiness--Dali Lama |

Why does Convert to PDF increase a Word doc size by 5x into PD
Word 2003 of the Office: Student and Teacher Edition does have the Flash
Paper menu, which contains the Convert to PDF function. The PDF generated from that conversion are 5x the size of the original Word doc file. Thus, the PDF become a GDF: Giant Document File or a CDF: Cumbersome Doc File. Please explain why MS would choose to allow that "turning PDF on its head." -- Purpose of life is happiness--Dali Lama "Graham Mayor" wrote: Word 2003 has no function for creating PDF files? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org David Faubion wrote: The PDF that Word 2003 makes increases the file size of the doc.

FlashPaper is an Adobe product, not a Microsoft product. Please explain
why you think MS owes you an explanation for how an Adobe product works.

Hi,
Do you mean to say that Flash Paper is bundled into the WORD 2003 as a third party plugin or add-on? Nevertheless, Microsoft did let me know about a free fix or work-around to return PDF to its small file-size supremacy: http://www.filedudes.com/word_to_pdf...oad-16088.html -- Purpose of life is happiness--Dali Lama "garfield-n-odie [MVP]" wrote: FlashPaper is an Adobe product, not a Microsoft product.
