Inflated files PDF of Acrobat Pro

I created last night to PDF using Acrobat Pro 10.1.13 . (Windows 7/64) and they seemed quite large and not very good quality with compression artifacts. The originals were monochrome scans, which are the OCR would be then recorded optimized by using the default settings.

I was doing a similar job on last year and the PDF file was 5, .2MB and the quality was excellent. I saved a copy of the file year after OCR stage. Reopening now and savings "optimized" gives 24 MB! (and poor quality). Save as 'File size reduced' gave 10 MB but garbage quality.then and now.jpg

I keep Acrobat up to date but does not record when he upgraded. I used to use the optimization tool in the tools Panel, but this disappeared in the upgrade to 10 (I think).

How can I go back to the good quality and small files?

Apology & gals guys: stupid mistake on my part: there is a small drop down at the top right of the tools Panel. By clicking on "Document Processing" in this menu, adds another section which includes the tool "Optimize scanned PDF". It's the one that disappeared. It gives the result I was looking for.

  • Problems with the creation of PDFs in Acrobat Pro 11

    We are going to have problems with shared PDF files created in Acrobat Pro 11.0.11 or above.

    When some users to create shared PDF files and send for shared review, they can be considered as shared PDF in Acrobat Pro (yellow bar appears, with shared PDF functions), but not in Adobe Reader 11.0.11 or higher (without shared review menu bar appears, can't we seem to view manually).

    Anyone know what could be the problem? It's only for PDF files created by some users, another shared review, a PDF file created with Acrobat Pro 11.0.11 or superior open fine in drive 11.0.11 or above. I think maybe it's a setting that is not correct for some users...

    Thank you!!

    Hi higi97,

    How are you connected to the internet? You're behind a corporate firewall particularly safe? You're on Mac or Windows? You have an anti-malware software running on your computer which can prevent applications other than your browser to connect to internet?

    You can try the steps below:

    1. close the application of creative cloud.

    2. navigate to the OOBE folder.

    Windows: [system drive]: \Users\ [user name] \AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

    Mac OS: /Users/ [user name] / folder/Library/Application Support / Adobe / OOBE

    3. delete the opm.db file.

    4. launch creative cloud.

    Let us know if this helps,

  • How to resize a page file of pdf with Acrobat Pro?

    Acrobat Pro, how can you resize a page to PDF (21.38 x 26.75 mm ") into a single measure 6" x 9 ", which will be submitted as the trim size? Is there a feature that allows it to be? How does set an all printing options in the print Application dialog box to adjust the size of a page of custom file?

    Pages wide you need to tax a plugin or script in Acrobat.

    Alternatively, you can print them on the Adobe PDF printer using the desired page size, well that which will remove all the file contains metadata (bookmarks, fields, comments, etc.).

  • How change a PDF file created with Acrobat Pro XI after signatures have been applied (as I can in 7, 8.0

    I have a major problem that I need to resolve before we can buy Acrobat Pro XI:


    Currently, with Acrobat Pro 8.1, after all signatories sign a document, we add an effective Date (we add it after they sign since we do not know when the last signature is acquired and we cannot have an effective Date that is prior to the date of the last signatory, moreover, it would be effective before they signed, which is not possible). I am also authorized the latitude (as described in our Documentation control procedure) to make spelling corrections, hyperlink updates and minor formatting changes (using the typewriter and, also, by replacing a page which is NOT signed so page change shows how to repaginate the document or the amendment of a hyperlink that has changed).


    In all versions previous Acrobat we used (7 Pro, Pro 8 and 8.1 Pro), this was easily possible and any changes would be listed on the Signatures tab, which is exactly what we want, is traceability.


    I now use the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI but get the message "this document is signed and cannot be displayed." If I bring the same PDF created from Word 2003 & 2013 using Acrobat Pro XI in Pro 8.1, however, I CAN add the date, use the typewriter and replace unsigned pages, register and leave without compensation or lose any signature.


    My question is this: How can I do this in Acrobat Pro XI, as Pro XI (in the Signature pane) lists also changes made to the document, when it was edited using Pro 8.1? (It's OK that the changes made to the PDF and then mark signatures as "invalid", as the reason why they were invalidated is also listed in the pane of the Signature, for example "form field added," which is usually the Date of effect applied).


    Thanks for any help!

    Thank you, Zildjian, and isakten. You me headed in the right direction. What I ended up doing was just a form text (for entry into force) field, then the required signature fields. After everyone has signed, I can the Effective Date of entry, then save the document and I don't have to sign myself or apply any type of certification. I just have to remember to put the text before form field I have forward the documents. It's the right answer, at least for my situation.

    Thanks again!
