Acrobat to the Rescue

This story is about adding digital images to a Word document to be posted in an LMS - Blackboard then D2L. Originally the Word doc was exported as a PDF (Acrobat) file and posted to Bb. One of the documents was only 34 pages but 77 MB in size - WOW.

Using Acrobat Pro's Advanced > PDf Optimizer menu, the file slimmed down to only 2.1 MB. Now students can easily access the file online or quickly download it.
