I am using a print to PDF solution CutePDF I picked up at http://www.howtogeek.com/201354/ninite-is-the-only-safe-place-to-get-windows-freeware/
There are options as to the DPI so why not drop the DPI to 300?
Hello. I use Word 2010. I can save my Word docs as pdfs. But the resulting files are over 400K. The files I upload must be no larger than 300K. How can I compress mine to make them come in under this limit. I am looking for safe, free compression tools. Thanks.
