This is great, thanks. I originally stated that there were 120 or so images in the PDF. Turns out there's only 40, but a where images are side-by-side in the original PDF, or have text to the left or right side, the images extracted out as many thin horizontal slices. So, although the down sampling managed to make the file less than 10% of the original, the images that exported as slices now display in the final pdf all sliced up. Very odd. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
