App to Re-Size Large PDFs - chopper - 11-13-2013
Preview's ability to re-size PDFs is a bit limited. Anyone know of a decent hopefully freeware app for this purpose?

What do you mean by resize -- physical size or size in MB?

You can build an Automator action that will reduce the image sizes in PDF files - these make up most of the space inside a PDF document.

There's also the excellent PDF Shrink by Apago

There's a 10 day trial available, so you can get a feel for how it works. After that, it's only $35.

Hi, I wonder whether some PDF manipulaters can help with the PDF reszing problem? I am also testing with the related projects these days. I hope you success. Good luck.
Best regards,
