Not sure who Gordo is  ;D

But good to know, I only did it to my final pdf
as it was super bloated and those kind of files can hang up at Digital Output.

What if I do a zip pdf after the jpg pdf?
see above

yeah doing that keeps the images jpg so I'm assuming that is bad

Ah! so if I make a pdf and then put that in a saddle stitch template
and make a new pdf it will lower the quality?

see that is good info, I didn't think of that, I thought only editing the images would cause a problem

Thanks David!

You know those super huge files?
One day the copy guy was having a problem with a file
and I resorted to making a .jpg compressed pdf
This makes a considerably smaller pdf and it worked.
I would never edit a .jpg pdf, and I name it 123456_jpg.pdf
I did a test and don't see any difference in the prints.
Is there something I don't know that would cause a problem?
would there ever be a color change?
I have been doing Zip compressed so many years now.
This is helpful on large files that need to be converted to cmyk in the pdf process also,
device cmyk makes a huge file of big files.
I have the image quality to maximum on my setting

These particular data files were not for mailing
They were for cards, badges, and envelopes
the customer redid the data with shorter titles for the badges.
the didn't like the small font they ended up with.  ;D
