A way to reduce the file size would be Printer Properties -> Paper/Quality (tab) ->Advanced -> Print Quality -> Select dpi for printing (1200, 600, 300, etc)

When I see the glitch and minimize the application and bring it forward again, it seems to re-render the image and the glitch is gone. When printing I don't see the glitch, and when zooming in I see more detail and precision. This seems to be the best answer so far. My PDF is now 265 MB, but looks good and exportable without manually changing the file. Now sending to the printing office for publication. | |

| Jan 27 at 14:05 | comment | added | Z0q | When setting the minimum DPI to 1200 It seems to provide the same quality. However, the newly created PDF is 265 MB instead of the 13 MB PDF that I have when replacing the images manually | |
| Jan 27 at 13:30 | comment | added | Z0q | It is much better, but there are still some glitches, such as letters in sentences being cut off in a line / row. For example a bit from the top of all letters on a certain line, while other lines are in tact | |
| Jan 27 at 13:12 | comment | added | JW0914 | Great solution, but is this available on Adobe Reader or only paid versions of Acrobat? A DPI of 1200 is the minimum to ensure quality isn't lost, 600 will result in subpar quality when zooming in at >100% | |
