I do it the hard/easy way. Look through your document for the largest image. While doing that, guesstimate the average size of your images.
Put all images you are using into a folder. Download Fast Image (JPG) Resizer for Java at http://fir4j.sourceforge.net/ This will... mass resize all JPEG/JPG images in a directory resize images resize + crop images resize + fill with background color to get the desired image dimensions rotate images Resize images somewhere half way between largest and estimated average size. Pick your favorite statistical method. Most images will be of better quality. If you are concerned about watermarking, it will help there too. Re-Import into document. This assumes you have not linked to images. If images are linked and in same directory, re-size all images into sub-directory and paste sub-directory extension to URL/address. Hope this helps.
