Bill Welch document

I'm not an Adobe Acrobat expert, but I believe you can significantly reduce file size by options concerning backward compatibility. I believe that the program is up to version 22 or thereabouts. If you set the option to be compatible to version 9 or later the file size will be much smaller than if you default to version 1. Since a version 22 reader is a free download, someone who just wants to read your documents doesn't need backward compatibility.

I agree with Brian. I did not see an answer to the question of maximum file size that could be posted in the Files section. Do we know what that is?

Since I only have a few of these, I’d like to see all made available.

Dropbox is a good idea. I think you don't need an account if I create a special link to share with everyone here, which lets them into the file set in my dropbox. I've attached a list of Bill Welch files (I'm sure there are more) - You can see some of them are quite large! I'll get a round tuit... :-D Tim O'Connor On 5/7/2022 1:07 PM, Dave Parker via groups.io wrote: Have the Admins set a size limit for uploaded files? I see that the largest one so far is 16 MB. --

Have the Admins set a size limit for uploaded files? I see that the largest one so far is 16 MB.
I don't have Bill's article on plastic cars, but would note that his Feb 2008 piece on the FGEX consortium, which is 81 pages, is only a 11.9 MB file. PDFs usually aren't that big. I just took my largest, most photo-intensive PowerPoint clinic with a file size of 121 MB, and converted it to a PDF that is only 15.6 MB. Many (most) email apps allow attachments up to 25 MB. YMMV of course. -- Dave Parker Swall Meadows, CA |

WeTransfer is also a very good service … easy to use … and free.

I have a number of Bill Welch PDF files but they are huge - much too large for email or the list. On 5/7/2022 12:35 AM, Jared Harper wrote:
