Topic: compressing pdf's

I know your feeling concerning large file sizes.
I'm not strongly promoting this software since
I think we were guinea pigs for a lot of bugs, but
ActivePDF.com has a toolkit that allow you to flatten
PDFs and really decrease the file size. This depends if you have fields set in your PDF. I am developing a FDF to PDF process. Our PDFs were very large and this toolkit flattened (not really compressed) the files by 2/3.

Hope this helps.
