PDF download gigantic, please decrease size

[Andrew_Adkins]

A fairly simple PDF exported from Coda came out to 500 KB

After decreasing the size using Free PDF Compressor, the pdf came out to 50 KB

Half a MB for every pdf is a little large. It would be nice if there was a compression option or some work was done to reduce the size a bit.

So I figured out what was going on. Even though the images on the table look very small, the entire full sized image is contained within the pdf. This could be useful, but also might not be desired. An interesting quark.

Hi, @Andrew_Adkins.
I had the same issue as you. Take a look at my post bellow.

Launched: Save a Page as PDF

Hi, I’ve just discovered that instead of using “save as PDF” or printing to PDF, you use Microsoft print to PDF you can get small file sizes specially when you are printing a table with lots of thumbnail pictures. The difference is huge. A table with 32 pictures, at first had 35MB, which is impractical to send as email attachment. It all came down to 330KB when using the Microsoft virtual printer. For me, it’s a very useful tip and I wanted to share with the community.
