I'm working on my dio again. I'm up to page 24 using Comic Book Creator, and I wanted to share my progress with a friend, so I published it to a PDF file. Then I find out the PDF is HUGE!! Like 48 Megs! Ungh! I bought CBC so I could make dios that were more easily portable, no I find that they are HUGE! Now I know why some of you make yours in chapters! Is there any setting or software out there that can crunch the size of these dios? I'd like to publish a "War and Peace" sized Dio that could come in under 10 Megs!

I'm not sure why yours would be so fat unless you are adding a lot of layers or something. My dio's around 24 pages too and I'm coming in at 4.21mb. I'm not sure, maybe your pics are of higher quality or you are publishing them at a higher quality. I seriously don't know, dawg.

[SIZE=5]OOps! retraction....or correction on the post...the file was 4.8 megs!! my bust! and as Graham said "That's not too bad considering how many images it has!" [/SIZE]

Comic book creator still rocks! But if anyone can tell me how to compress PDF's EVEN MORE, I'd appreciate it!

I haven't read it. We talked on chat and he got the size wrong, that's all. He was just worried that it'd be too big.

I was gonna try to run it out to about 250 pages. I have a HUGE story to tell. But I think I'll just cut it into chapters to conserve hard drive space! I'll try and get out the first chapter soon......it's almost done!
