We have a system where we incorporate .pdf files into word documents. When we use v8.0 the .pdf files suddenly become very much larger (e.g. the word document containing the v5.0 PDFs, around 29 of them, is 1,224kb but is 2,376kb when we use v8.0 PDFs). The .PDF's are created by printing to PDF995 and then using Acrobat to open them, select a section of the page, and copy/paste them into the Word document.
Has anyone come across this before and, if so, how do we tune v8.0?
