Is there a way to "compress" a PDF file that includes too many images
to be sent at present via eMail ?  Assuming that all parties concerned
have access to WINZIP program ?

I have been told that a newsletter will be sent via USPostalMail
rather than via email because this issue contains too many images and
is a very large file.   I would like to suggest to the newsletter
author to send as a compressed file that I can unzip at my end, if
that is at all possible. 

Regards,

Zipping probably won't do much.  The shrinking should be done at the 
time of PDF creation where you control graphics quality.  (At least when 
you use Acrobat and/or Distiller...).

The alternate is to post the file somewhere, so that its URL can be in 
the e-mail.
