scripting pdf


  • Subject: scripting pdf

I scan documents with my HP scanner

the files are PDF files which have the ADOBE icon
and the files are huge    no less than 1 MB for 1 page

when I open the file in viewer and print as PDF
the new file; exactly the same as the original - same quality
etc etc;  is about 50 - 100 KB

this task however is laborous and should be scripted

any ideas as to how to proceed ?

a droplet would be my start

open the pdf file with viewer

print as pdf to location x
