FM > PDF bloat

[Joe Malin]

Could it be that both of the problems are due to multiple facets? You
may have your FM set to create FrameImage facets whenever you copy in a
graphic. That may generate two copies of the graphic.

	I am having a similar problem. I have a 618kb JPG that has to be
copied into the doc (can't be ref'd - long story, unusual case), and it
balloons the FM file from 299 kb to 25,669kb when I insert that meager
618kb JPG!  Any suggestions anyone?
	 
	Thanks,
	Rene Stephenson

	I have a Frame file that contains both imports of PDFs of
Illustrator graphics and Illustrator files. One of these graphics in
particular causes tremendous bloat.

	

	That AI (Illustrator) file weighs in at 1.9 MB. The PDF of the
same file is a svelte 101 KB. If I import either the Illustrator file or
the PDF'd Illustrator file and Save As PDF (standard job option at a
measly 600 dpi or even at 1200 dpi) the file balloons out to 11 MB.

	

	If I produce a postscript file (from Frame) of the one page
containing the graphic, the results are the same. The postscript file is
1.3 MB, which in turn distills into a 12 MB PDF. Bizarre.

	Any ideas on what to do?

	

	Vital statistics: Frame 7.0p579, WinXP Pro SP2, TimeSavers 3.6,
Nav Asst. 2.3.2, Forms Asst 1.7.
