Tool
This special tool allows you to "resample" your PDF files for maximum
compression which saves disk space and allows you to Email PDF files that
otherwise may be too large. The tool uses a special method to compress PDF
files (mainly black and white non text scanned images) that would far exceed
compression you might get with a standard compression program such as
WinZip. WinZip may further compress the PDF a little smaller afterwards
but you may see up to 90% compression with this tool. You may need to
check quality if you decide to permanently save the compressed and resampled PDF
files. Also, please contact tech support via Email should you decide to
use the "Multiple" automatic mass change for all PDF attached to
cases.
