However, his first attempt was with a 49Kb PowerPoint presentation which, when he printed to Distiller, created a 35Mb!!! PDF. Can anyone suggest why this occurred and how to get around it? I don't have a copy of the presentation and he is in a meeting at the moment so until he is out, I can't provide a copy of the presentation.
In addition to the comments provided by others, there are two things that can be used in PPT that can cause bloat when creating PDFs...
1) Gradiants, esp. as the slide background.
2) Transparency - either from images or drop shadows.
