How do I reduce the size of a pdf scan?
-
I have a HP Officejet scanner/fax. If I scan a 3 pages, it turns out to be like 7Mb- it used to only be 700kb or so. I think I downloaded an update that changed my settings. How do I set my settings etc. to make a scan of a few pages as small of a pdf as possible? And fyi, I am not scanning it as a picture- if I use the HP Solution Center (the go to icon for my scanner), I select "scan a document" then I select "document to file" (which has a picture of what appears to be an Adobe icon). Then it scans, and save to file ... Any advice?

Should be a setting where you can select "Resolution" and "Quality." Lower them and the file size should decrease.
