I think that I will give up my intention to use the perl script to reduce the size of my template pdf and find another way to solve my problem. It seems to me that the perl script is made for an UNIX environment and maybe I need to install something like cygwin or SFU on my Windows based PC(?). UNIX/Linux and perl script are not areas I'm familiar with, so if not somebody has a simple solution to reduce my pdf file size on my Windows platform, I will find another solution.
But anyhow, thank you for the answers. /Regards Christer From: "a.l.e" <ale.comp_06 at xox.ch> To: Scribus User Mailing List <scribus at lists.scribus.info> Date: 2010-03-22 15:55 Subject: Re: [scribus] Too large PDF Export file Sent by: scribus-bounces at lists.scribus.info hi christer > Thank you for the answer.
