Problems:

1. You haven't told us what you are using to convert.

2. As you probably know, in different parts of the world, dot and comma mean different things in numbers. So I dont know how to read 3.689 MB. Is it "nearly four megabytes" or "nearly four thousand megabytes". If it is "nearly four" this is far below any Acrobat limit. It is is "nearly four thousand" it is over 30 times too large for some services, and fine for others.

The Adobe product is "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC"

USA, decimals -- Similar downloads of the 50 page document (10-15 pages

each) with photos say--

1.1 MB

606 KB

783 KB

1.2 MB

thus the total of 3.689 MB

still thinking deinstalling and reinstalling may eliminate bugs that may

have occurred. OR

maybe my subscription just doesn't allow this

Reader is not capable of creating PDF files on its own. You're probably subscribed to a web-based service, like PDF Pack.

Hi RichieWms ,

Please provide the Exact dot version of the software & OS installed at your system .

Check whether is there any update available for the software after going through "help > check for updates "

Using which application the document was originally created .Is this happening with the other documents as well.

Regards,

Yatharth--

As I said, I am a novice that usually does one small conversion a month as

a draft for a newsletter so pictures don't jumble.

My 3.7 MB WORD document when attempting to convert says "exceeds 100MBs"

I have Windows 10 operating system which has messed some things up since

loading it 2 weeks ago. I did go into Tools and found Adobe Reader DC and

"modified". It said "optimizing performance". I then went to Adobe HELP

and did the same again for Adobe Reader DC. No luck

Same answer. Thinking I should deinstall and reinstall--had to do this

for AOL after loading Windows 10.

It sounds like you're trying to convert the file via an online subscription. The Acrobat application has no such limits.
