Hi help77,

What is the error message that you get when you try to reduce the PDF file size? And, are you using PDF Optimizer in Acrobat, or using the Save As Other > Reduced Size PDF option?

I look forward to hearing back from you.

Best,

Sara

Sara - the message reads “an error was encountered while processing images”. This occurs when trying either the Optimizer command or Reduced Size PDF option. I should note that this does NOT happen when I use an older version of Acrobat on an my PC Windows.
