I'm running ID3 on 10.5.7 I have a file which is over 100pp and is very vector graphic heavy. My PDF's are coming out at 7.4MB on the smallest file size setting. I know I can raster the whole page but this makes alos makes the file size to big. What I want to do is have a half way setting and rasterize the vectors only and retain the text.
Is this possible? Can someone explain to me how to achieve this without going back and saving out all images from Illustrator as JPEG's and replaceing them in InDesign?
Export PDF Rasterize Vectors but retain...There was another thread about this just yesterday. http://forums.adobe.com/message/2090197#2090197
There was a comment in this link http://indesignsecrets.com/creating-smaller-pdfs-from-a-vector-dense-book.php that seemed to indicate you could rasterize the vector graphics, but not the text, by adjusting the balance in the flattener.
Export PDF Rasterize Vectors but retain...Thanks for that Peter.
The only solution which would potentially answer my problem would be the transparancy setting one. The problem is that even with the transparancy setting set to 1 the vectors don't rasterize. They only rasterize with it set to 0. Problem with this is that all ID text is also converted making the file larger than necassary. As I have over 120 vector files placed and amends are yet to follow from the client, changing the AI files to tiff or JPEG's is not an option. Looks like this is one for future versions of ID.
Thanks again.
Set the transparency of the vector files to 99.9%, then use your flattener style of 1.?Use an object style so you can change them all back easily.
