Questions about PDF

Questions about PDF

I have two questions about pdf files:

I want a freeware that really deminish the size of the pdf file with good 
quality.

The second: can you make your own register for the chapters in the pdf like 
letters in a lexicon. I know there are pages at the left but I can not see 
so much in those pages that I can use it.

I want to have some link to the letter of L, for example (think of a 
lexicon).

You can answer to one of the questions if you have an answer of that.

Thak you in advance.

Re: Questions about PDF

I meant that I already have a pdf file that is big. I want some freeware to 
make that already done pdf file smaller.

I would like a spell that turns lead into gold...

Re: Questions about PDF

What do you mean Peter Flynn?

Perhaps you mean that this is impossible. But I mean that I want the quality 
to as good as possible with little size of the pdf-file.

I'm sorry -- post-new-year sarcasm was probably inappropriate :-)

If you have used a decent PDF-generator, then you will already have been 
given the opportunity to adjust the size-vs-quality setting. You can't 
do anything more than that.

If you were not the creator, or if you were using software that does not 
permit optimisation of the size-vs-quality setting, then you need to go 
back to the source document (Word, TeX, OpenOffice, whatever) and 
recreate the PDF with better software, or use images with lower 
resolution or harder compression.

Otherwise you may need to buy some PDF-editing software, or perhaps try 
pdfedit (http://pdfedit.petricek.net/en/index.html -- I don't know if it 
can do this, though).

If you do not have access to the original master document, you're 
probably stuck.

this goal can be achieved by using ghostscript

- First case: if your PDF has only vector text and no images, and you have 
used only black, but colorspace of your pdf is RGB, you can save a lot of 
space turning your pdf from RGB into gray

gs -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=output.pdf -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sColorConversionStrategy=Gray -dProcessColorModel=/DeviceGray -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 input.pdf < /dev/null

- 2° case: if your PDF has images and you can't turn these to gray, use
FLATE encoding to trying compress PDF

gs -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=output.pdf -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dUseFlateCompression=true -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 input.pdf < /dev/null       

if any of these two ways is successiful, you can try to compress your
PDF using the power of

*Multivalent*
- http://www.ziddu.com/downloadlink/1794145/Multivalent.tar.gz

with Compress tool

usage:

java -cp /path..to/multivalent.jar tool.pdf.Compress -jpeg input.pdf

the mighty multivalent has another switch to make a further compression

-compact

but, using -compact option, makes a pdf readable only by multivalent
