I agree that it shouldn't, but a quick test of generating a single page with a diagram actually showed a small difference in final PDF size. First I imported the original PDF, then I replaced it with an EPS created from Acrobat 5 (Level 2, binary, preview, embed included fonts). Everything else was exactly the same. The PDF graphic was already cropped to the size of the actual graphic (no margins). The difference is size was small (less than 10%), but I guess the difference is in the way FM converts the imported PDF into an "internal EPS", as compared to the EPS created from Acrobat 5. There's probably a slight difference in EPS characteristics. Dov, does that sound plausible? > Dumb question du jour! Yep, I admitted to that fairly quickly :-) ___________________________________________ Thomas Michanek, FrameMaker/UNIX/MIF expert Technical Communicator, Uppsala, Sweden mailto:Thomas.Michanek@xxxxxxxxx http://go.to/framers/ ___________________________________________ ** To unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx ** ** with "unsubscribe framers" (no quotes) in the body. **
