How do you shrink a pdf file?

  • So I just created a pdf that is 28 mb and I need to shrink it down to 10 mb. Is that possible? I have no idea what compressing it even means! By the way, I own a mac os x.

  • Answer:

    if you are trying to shrink it for email dont bother. just upload it to a file hosting site and send the recipient a link to it.

Before building the pdf, shrink the file size of the pictures in there, they don't have to be larger than maybe 100kb to 150kb. Most cameras give picture files that are well over 1mb.

If you use the full version of Acrobat open the file and go to File>Reduce File Size. This will strip out all unnecessary data and may very well achieve what you need to.
