hi, hope I'm asking this i the right place... ! I'm creating a graphic design portfolio and i want to make it as easy as possible to view.

the 14 page pdf i have at the moment is too big to view onscreen, is there any way to resize the document, -or - is there a particular paper size that suits viewing onscreen?

thanks in advance,
ned .

I am not sure I completely understand your need: on screen viewing in most of the reasonable PDF viewing tools has as a default strategy to make the page fit inside the document window (you can increase the likelihood of this by adjusting the "Initial View" settings in the PDF, in Acrobat see File -> Document Properties -> Initial View).

Or are you rather not referring to page size, but to amount of data/file size? And not to onscreen viewing but online viewing over the internet? In that case, PDF Optimizer in Acrobat Professional might be your friend, it has numerous options to bring down file size.

Thanks Olaf, thats just what i wanted to hear. i thought that too, but i created the document, US letter i think i used, 8.5 x 11 inches, and when i opened it in preview (and acrobat) it didn't fit the screen.

its a portfolio, so i want to send it to employers, and when they open it have it fit their screen.
I'll tryout the things you said :]
