Scenario 2: Using Plot Lines with Shadows and color fill -> 9,973 KB initial print (looks crispy and beautiful) -> 3,769 KB optimized (looks okay and all the line work is still crispy since those are vector based, but the pixelation becoming more noticeable because the color fill is all image based). My biggest beef is with things like my company logo. Scenario 1: Using Plot Lines with Shadows and no color fill -> 3,060 KB initial print (looks crispy and beautiful) -> 1,800 KB optimized (still looks pretty good but shadows are a little more pixelated and referenced image files don't look as good). ![]() Using Nitro Pro to optimize as much as possible after the fact Using Chief's built in Save As PDF for initial print set at 600 DPI Working with a pretty basic 12 page plan printed at 24"x36" with 20 cameras The issue is far more complicated than just using the right PDF printer or optimizing the file though. I have been using Nitro Pro myself for a number of years. Most PDF editors have an optimization/file reduction feature built-in. Anyone know of a good "third party PDF optimizer?"
