Howdy,
The PDF option has produced some ideas but not significant.
Perhaps there is a different approach.
The need was to reduce the size of a PC Word document.
for transmitting via email.
Does anybody have any better approach than the one
suggested by EDWARD ARROWSMITH
using yousendit . Good ifdea but I can't see yet how they pay
there way .

Partly answering my own mail, there is a second website using the same
technique.
You upload your file to Dropload or YouSendIt , they send an email
address to the required party
and it is available for download.
Multiple downloads ????? I don't know yet.

Hi,
We were asked to turn a PC-using friend's MSoft Word docs into PDFs
to make them smaller (she needs to email them to multiple
recipients). However, the PDF created by printing under OSX (10.2.8)
is much larger (5.2Mb) than the original Word document (2.6Mb).
We tried the same file on our other Mac (OS10.3.3) and produced a
slightly smaller file (5.1Mb).
Does anyone know if this is standard for PDFs created in this way,
and if Acrobat produces smaller PDFs than those created under OSX?
Cheers,
Kaye and Geoff
