Acrobat Distiller 4.05
Frame 6.0

Why does a Book with 50 files distill to a PS file of 18 MB and output to PDF at 9 MB. No graphics in the book?

Other books produce a PS file of around 17 to 18 MB but result in PDF files of no more than 1.5 MB in size.

The frame files are all set to optimize. The job settings are also set to optimize.
