While I do have the full Acrobat 8 Pro, by the time I found this thread the file had been removed from your host. So unless someone gets me the file, I can't help. For what I put on the web (and the hosting service I noted above is one of the ones I use, but not for donwiss.com) I use Advanced -> PDF Optimizer. Acrobat is a little confusing. There are several places where optimizing appears on the menu. >Many webmail providers have a limit of 10MB or smaller on email >attachment. As far as I know all e-mail systems limit attachments to 25 MB at 7 bits, or less. A PDF is 8 bits. So even on the best e-mail systems the limit becomes around 20 MB.
