What version of Acrobat? Are you saving to .ps and then distilling or creating the pdf directly from the Adobe menu/icon in PowerPoint? If you setup distiller manually at one setting, without setting up the Adobe conversion/distiller settings from PowerPoint's Adobe menu and you create the pdf from PowerPoint, it will use the PP settings, not your manual distiller settings. I could be way off, but without knowing I'm throwing everything out there. ~James __________________________________________________________________ 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?
