Comparing PDF file sizes Consider file size when planning work flow or publishing documents online. Larger files (especially 24-bit color ones) take more time to capture, send over networks, and display on-screen. The two charts on the following pages show the file sizes resulting from the import and capture of an 8 1/2-by-11 inch page containing text, line art, and a photograph.These charts show how the PDF Output Style you choose can effect the size of the final PDF file. Note: The Capture plug-in uses PDF Writer to create PDF files, but you cannot change PDF Writer compression settings to reduce the size of captured files. The Capture plug-in always uses the default PDF Writer compression settings.
