PDF File Size 1

[EMoore12]

Does anyone know if there are any size limitations on PDF files? Currently, I have a PDF file that is 82.6 mb and is growing. I have not experienced any performance issues but I was curious if there was a limit as to how big a pdf file can be.

Thanks,

...Erica

No limit in the spec. Only practical/system limitations. You'd have a chore, for example, serving that file over the web.

If you re-save the document in Acrobat, it will clean up a lot of the "old" xrefs, etc. to result in a smaller file size.
