Error When Trying to Save a PDF Document

I have a pdf document that is around 107mb. When I try to save any changes to the document I receive the following error: 'The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document.(15)' The only way for me to save it is to reduce the file size. Has anyone ever came across an error like this? And if so what did you do to solve it?

Try doing a save as - each time a pdf is saved, the file size grows (the previous versions of the file can be viewed/restored). If you don't need to view/restore previous versions, and the document does not contain digital signatures this should not cause you any problems.

The Save As gave me the same error. Do you have anymore suggestions?

Thanks,

Might be an idea to audit the space usage of this file - go to Tools>~PDF Consultant>~Audit Space Usage. This should tell you what space each of the document elements occupies - you may be able to remove some elements to reduce the file size, but you have to be careful with this!
