How do I undo reducing my PDF file size?  I'd like to get it back to normal PDF size.

Thank you

Sorry, not possible. This is done via throwing away data (typically image quality) and that data is gone. I think the only options you have is (1) if you have a Mac and use Time Machine, you can go back in time and recover it. Alternatively (2), recreate the PDF.

 

Good luck.

You should always save as (a copy) after reducing the size.
