Generating the TheJalviewTutorial_Screen.pdf -------------------------------------------- Note: before any pdf optimization can be performed, you need to preprocess the raw pdf generated by pdflatex by: ps2pdf TheJalviewTutorial.pdf TheJalviewTutorial_pdfopt.pdf The above command should complete with no errors. The resulting file can be safely operated on with the Adobe PDF optimizer to downsample images without losing any of the special characters (e.g. the double right arrows for menu/submenu paths or the arrow key symbols). The PDF Optimizer setting of Adobe Acrobat 7 was used with the following settings: Compatibility: Acrobat 4.0 and later Images: Bicubic (always). - Color - down to 120 ppi for all above 120 ppi. Jpeg medium compression. - Greyscale - 160 ppi for above 160ppi. Jpeg high compression. - Monochrome - 160 ppi for above 160ppi. CCITT Group 4 All fonts are embedded as a subset Transparency is flattened: Raster/Vector 75 Lineart/Text 150ppi Gradient and Mesh 120ppi All strokes converted to outlines Complex regions are clipped Overprints preserved. Discard Objects: All options ticked except 'external cross references' and 'document structure' Clean Up: Document structure is compressed. All options ticked (Flate, Use Flate instead, Remove invalid bookmarks, remove invalid links, remove unreferenced named destinations, optimize PDF for fast web view)
