How do you compact a word file after compressing pictures? In Word 97 there
was the option to compress a file after editing. The word file I have is 5.3
MB but the pdf conversion is 1.1 MB. There appears to still be a bit of
dead space within the document.

Make sure that Fast Save is not enabled (Tools - Options - Save), and save
the file. (Another frequent cause of bloat is hidden tracked changes... you
might check for that, as well.)
