I went back to the original docs and did my resize there then I copied &#38; pasted into the larger doc to be pdf'd. dopdf print and the result was from a file of 1666kb output was 896kb. Yahoo! issue resovled.</p> <p>My life can go back to its normal state of relative happiness. Good job! </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-623 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 07:56:36 +0000 Softland 623@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>If I understand correctly, the problem is that a word document of 1594kb results in a pdf of 2499kb, this happening with the previous version and with the current one too. However another doc of about 20mb results in a 2mb pdf file. </p> <p>I don't see anything abnormal here, because it all depends on what the word doc contains. If it has images that were resized in it (not externally) than the pdf will include the entire size, that's why the increase in size instead of decrease. You can see some tips on reducing the size of the pdf here - <a href="http://www.novapdf.com/kb/reduce-pdf-file-size-152.html">Adjust images in the original document to reduce the size of the resulting PDF</a> (the first part of the article applies to dopdf too, and that should help reduce the size of the pdf). </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-622 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 04:49:28 +0000 wsnedden 622@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>pdf out from dopdf is larger than the original. When source file (.doc) was 1594kb output pdf was 2499kb. I reinstalled 6.2.287 and re-ran a 21,163kb file through dopdf and the result was a file size of 1961kb [a good compression!).</p> <p>Reran original 1594kb file again and got same result as previous i.e. 2499kb. It seems like there should have been some compression not an expansion???</p> <p>Anyone got any clues as to why this might be ok? </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-620 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 23:41:56 +0000 wsnedden 620@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I recently downloaded the 6.2.288 and after running it for a .doc file type that was 1594 kb the pdf result has 2499 kb. I did NOT check the "embed fonts" check box. I think it did it anyway!!?? I haven't looked yet, but I am going to try to download the prvious version. Has anyone else had this problem? The previous version generated a pdf with 2038kb from a file that was 18,000kb.</p> <p>Is this a bug? </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-608 Mon, 16 Feb 2009 08:23:17 +0000 Softland 608@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>glad you've solved this </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-605 Sun, 15 Feb 2009 13:13:48 +0000 Francisco Faz 605@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Forget it... reinstalled and all is OK now... mea culpa! </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-file-oversized-in-62288#post-604 Sun, 15 Feb 2009 04:54:35 +0000 Francisco Faz 604@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>In this new version 6.2.288 the PDF file is more big as before (5X at less)... please check this... </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links-and-images-in-dopdf#post-348 Fri, 24 Oct 2008 07:53:52 +0000 Softland 348@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <blockquote><p>Does doPDF permit links and/or images in its PDF files ?. </p></blockquote> <p>Yes, images are converted in the pdf file (I think that's what you're asking). Links are converted too, if they're in a visible format (not hidden links) like <a href="http://www.novapdf.com">http://www.novapdf.com</a> for example (but <a href="http://www.novapdf.com">novaPDF</a> with a hidden link won't be converted).</p> <blockquote><p>Is Files PDf's protection allowed?</p></blockquote> <p>No, doPDF doesn't protect the PDF file. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links-and-images-in-dopdf#post-344 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 14:02:31 +0000 romerriera 344@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Does doPDF permit links and/or images in its PDF files ?.

In order to have those files together you would have to import the 1-3 word files into the powerpoint itself in the order you want them in the PDF. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/merge-files-in-one-pdf#post-153 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 18:24:50 +0000 ninabaker 153@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I have a question about merging 2 or more files into one pdf. Is this possible with DoPdf? How would one do this? I need to create one pdf with a powerpoint handout and 1 to 3 word files.</p> <p>Thank you. </p>
