Possible to modify Optimize for Web Action?

I'd like to create an action, using Action Wizard, that would allow me to downsample all imagery to 72dpi and apply a medium quality JPG compression. I am using both Acrobat DC and Acrobat 11, and neither seem to let you specify the compression settings within Action Wizard.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

The options are also available in the Action Wizard. Under Save & Export use the Save Tool and specify there the optimizer options.

The Acrobat product has 2 variations, Standard and Professional. Professional adds tools like the "PDF Optimizer" and Batch or Action Processing. The PDF Optimizer is available as a single file processing step and as a Action Process option.

The Optimize tool is under the "Go To" Tools to add.

Right. I am aware of the Optimize tool/function. With Optimize you can set your desired resolution, JPG compression, etc.

What I don't understand is why those options are not available when using Action Wizard.

Since I am not an employee, I could only speculate. I set the Optimizer as needed before enacting the Action. The saved configuration of the Optimizer tool's last setting is used.
