Print at Home ticket design size conundrum

Graeme Ellis
$organization

Hello everyone,

I wonder if you can help.  We're in the process of putting together pdfs for our print at home tickets.  The pdfs that come out of Word are about 110k in size however, when they've gone through Adobe Professional to add in the form fields, they're coming out at a whopping 790k per page!

Is there something we're doing wrong as I wouldn't expect the pdfs to grow so big when we add in the ticket data.

Thanks for your help

Grae

    I don't think you are doing anything wrong - ours are quite large, but we always make sure that we compress them in adobe afterwards and reduce the size that way.

    Hi Caryl,

    Even after compression they’re coming out as nearly 800k which just seems super massive.  Are the Tessitura fields really an additional 600k or so?

    I don't think so, I don't think any of ours are that big after compression. I can't think what would be causing it especially.

    Hi

    I had the same problem. I used a Nitro Pro. The compression did the trick!

    Hope this helps!

    Hi Graeme,

    I found that the more jpg's we used, the larger the file. I removed as many of them as I could and typed the policies directly onto the word doc and that greatly decreased the size of our templates.  I also compress when I save the word doc as a pdf and again after adding all the fields to the pdf. (I'm not sure if this helps or not but was told at one time to do it that way.)
