printing to a pdf file with probably shrink the file size. iirc, you're trying to shrink the size of a formular and i fear that there is no "free" way to shrink such a pdf file (acrobat pro may be able to do it). this is one of the cases, where scribus could, need for a person stepping in and wanting to implement a "light" pdf export for scribus. Or a company should finance it... it's one of the features which would clearly improve scribus but which won't be implemented in a near future because the current situation is good enough (and the priority is to fix things which are not good enough!) ciao a.l.e
