I modified the e-book default settings (saved it as e-book(1)) and set the resolution to 72dpi and still it takes a long time - some presentations are 40 slides in length and PDF in about 30 seconds, this troublesome one is 35 slides and took about 30 minutes and even with the modified settings, it is still very slow. I don't know how to explain this but if a presentation is created whereby each slide has a "custom" background, even though they all appear to be the same background, could that affect the size of the presentation and PDF? Just searching for ideas. --------------------------------------------------------- Julian Rickards Digital Publications Distribution Coordinator Publications Services Section Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines Phone: (705) 670-5608 Fax: (705) 670-5690 > -----Original Message----- > From: Greg Onder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 2:27 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [PDF-Basics] Powerpoint PDF bloated > > > > PDF-Basics is a service provided by PDFzone.com | > http://www.pdfzone.com/ > __________________________________________________________________ > > Jules, > > Sounds like the Distiller job option is set for Pressoptimized, which > creates the largest file sizes of the default settings.
