Howdy David, thanks for the reply… well, I've toyed with the settings in that box. I thought originally it was keeping images at full resolution even after I shrunk them. A typical 1 page document for me might come out to be 5 megs as a pdf using default “High Quality Print” settings.

I modified those settings to reduce all images over 200 ppi to 200 ppi, and the result is a smaller PDF, but only a bit… say 4.8 megs. So I guess it's not the images. A fully optimized PDF of the same document is 400kb, and the images are still 200+ resolution.

So… anything I can do within that dialogue to come close to that 400kb result? Maybe a javascript plugin to export in a different way?
