Audit the space usage of a PDF
Auditing the space usage gives you a report of the total number of bytes used for specific document elements, including
fonts, images, bookmarks, forms, named destinations, and comments, as well as the total file size. The results are
reported both in bytes and as a percentage of the total file size.
1 Choose Advanced > PDF Optimizer.
2 Click the Audit Space Usage button at the top of the dialog box.
Optimize a PDF
Note: Optimizing a digitally signed document removes and invalidates the digital signatures.
1 Open the PDF Optimizer dialog box.
2 To use the default settings, choose Standard from the Settings menu, and then skip to step 6. If you change any
settings in the PDF Optimizer dialog box, the Settings menu automatically switches to Custom.
3 From the Make Compatible With menu, choose Retain Existing to keep the current PDF version, or choose an
Acrobat version. (The options available in panels vary depending on this choice.)
4 Select the check box next to a panel (for example, Images, Fonts, Transparency), and then select options in that
panel. To prevent all of the options in a panel from executing during optimization, deselect the check box for that
panel.
5 (Optional) To save your customized settings, click the Save button and name the settings. (To delete a saved setting,
choose it in the Settings menu and click Delete.)
6 When you are finished selecting options, click OK.
7 In the Save Optimized As dialog box, click Save to overwrite the original PDF with the optimized PDF, or select a
new name or location.
To optimize several documents at the same time, use the Output options for the Batch Processing command.
