RE: Faster watermarker for PDFs -- and the compression suggestion

["Pinkham, Jim" <Jim -dot- Pinkham -at- voith -dot- com>]

I tried the compression app and was less than impressed: It took a 53 MB
file and squeezed it down to 49 MB, and took a 4 MB file and
"compressed" it to 4.5 MB. So far I'm having better luck with Adobe's
native PDF compression feature.

Hi Sue,

Watermarking the source doc would be faster. However, in this case, the
PDF comes directly from an archive of active documents in PDF format,
gets watermarked, and goes directly to an archive of obsolete documents.
Source doc doesn't get accessed during this operation.

I'll let you know after I try the apps that Seb recommended earlier
today.

Thanks,

Dan
