Acrobat DC Pro mac bloating files

[jiporter]

Is it normal for Acrobat DC to bloat files after commenting is added to them? I began with a smallish file (under 10 MB). It grew to 40MB and is now over 100MB after a few days. One factor: I sometimes use PDF Express with iPad to add comments. I've noticed some interference occasionally in going back and forth. I know that even in Acrobat Dc alone you get bloating but not to this extent, or rather I haven't seen this happen to this extent. Thoughts appreciated. Latest version of Acrobat DC Pro and El Capitan (both).

Hi jiporter

Sorry for the late response.

The file size increase slightly when you add data on it. It depends on the what data you add to the file.

Could you please confirm the dot version of Adobe Acrobat DC Pro you are using.

Can you share both the files with and without comments, so we can check it on our end?

Regards,

Meenakshi

I perform lots of markup (annotations: underlinings, highlightings, and bookmarkings). Doubling or more of a file's size over time is common for me (comments can add up to a thousand-count or so in a file). I also work with iPad apps to perform these as well as Acrobat desktop. I wonder if the apps are adding to the bloat problem; or is this just natural?
