Hi Guys, I have a PDF file that is 2mb (20 pages). I only need pages 1-10 of the Document. I print it to PDF pages 1-10. The result is a file that is 12-14mb. Any idea why it is doing this? It has previously decreased the size of the document to 1 mb.

Acrobat Reader can't create PDF files. How does you print to PDF?

Yes, it's for Windows only.

Apple has locked this feature on MacOS.
