can paste a description from the Clipboard.
Pages
All Exports all pages in the current document or book.
Range Specifies the range of pages to export in the current document. You can type a range by using a hyphen, and

presets.

Options
Embed Page Thumbnails Embeds a thumbnail preview for each page in the PDF, increasing the file size. Deselect this
setting when users of Acrobat 5.0 and later will view and print the PDF; these versions generate thumbnails dynamically
each time you click the Pages panel of a PDF.
Optimize For Fast Web View Reduces PDF file size, and optimizes the PDF file for faster viewing in a web browser by
restructuring the file for page-at-a-time downloading (byte serving). This option compresses text and line art,
regardless of the settings you have selected in the Compression category of the Export Adobe PDF dialog box.
Create Tagged PDF During export, automatically tags elements in the story based on a subset of the Acrobat tags that

and adjust tags in the document before exporting to PDF. See
