    Default PDF Compression

    I've used Adobe but am sick of paying for it and was looking into some free programs. I tried Primo PDF and like it but the compression isn't great.

    Does anyone have another free program that can compress reports down nice and small?

    Adobe makes the finished product about 20% the size of the original. An average report is about 2mb in Word and ends up about 400kb. Something close to that would be nice. It's not a huge deal but I like to keep the reports as small as possible for storage. I also hate the calls from the little old ladies with a 56K dial-up connection who complain it took them 3 days to download the report

    Also, CutePDF free download does not place a watermark (advertising that you are using the free download) on the pdf document like most of the others do.
