You can also reduce file size in Preview by (1) opening your PDF file, (2) click “Save as,” (3) renaming the file, (4) save again as a PDF, but click on the “quartz filter” at the bottom that says “reduce file size.” Pretty easy.

Even though I wrote this ages ago, it’s still useful. I squish PDF files every week, and the Mac does it for free. Cool! I think I’ll update this article with easier-to-follow steps, though…

This just saved me $300 – that’s all I needed acrobat for, getting scanned PDF’s to a reasonable size. This posting works like a charm. Thanks for sharing it!
