Hi!
I'm trying to do "subj" and it works from command line but not exactly how I want it.
Command:
-convert 84778_BOL.tif C:\out.pdf
5 page tif (6mb) becomes 60mb pgf
I played with quality/depth and it didn't do difference.
Then I found this forum and similar topic (converting other way around). So, I tried
-convert 84778_BOL.tif -resize 50% C:\out.pdf
and got 15Mb which is still pretty big. I see same documents converted somehow else with acceptable quality at 250Kb.
Is there any way to "compress" output PDF or something?
Thanks in advance!

Answering my own question.. -compress zip is what did the trick!!

Found interesting thing..
If I used resize together with compress - size of output file went up. Strange.

Not strange. Resize will merge colors to generate a nice resized image.
All those extra colors will cause compression to not compress as well so larger file size.
Of course if the image size is a lot smaller then the file size should go down!
For a not so good looking resize with high compression use -sample instead of -resize.
Either that or reduce the number of colors using -colors.
