Thanks for this tip…and I feel like a dumbass for not knowing this as much as we print to PDF and send proofs to clients.

hi,
i have a “little” problem with the optimizing a pdf.
i need a version for acrobat 4.0. When i create Bookmarks and links and when i optimize it for version 4 the bookmarks and the links are away. I tryed to avoid this with the configuration oft the optimize tool – bout the behaviour is always the same.
