Selecting similar images in PDF and having to store them once in the PDF

Post by timefliez »

Hello, I have a client that is using the same images in a 100k page document. Is there a way to extract all images that are the same and store them inside the pdf as a reference? That way the RIP isn't processing 100k different images.
Thanks in advance,

Optimised save, either in PitStop Server or Acrobat, will do this automatically as long as the images are indeed completely the same on a PDF object level.

Thanks, I will give that a try.
I do see the 3 options:
"Optimize for file size and web download"
"Optimize for file size only"
and
"Disable optimized save"

The latter is what I had selected. I will try the others to see how well they optimize.
