I have a word document that has 9 images in it...the images total to 339KB but the file size of the word document is 1821KB....
other than linking the pictures (rather than having them embedded) is there any way to get the file size smaller (ie closer to the 339KB)...
thanks
EDIT***
here's more info that will hopefully help...
i'm scanning pages from a book
the book has text and images
i run it through OCR
when the ocr saves the file (note: different example than one above) it's 776KB
if i go into word and just make a minor change (eg add a carriage return at the end of the document) and save it shows up as 2276KB....
any help would be great...i'd hate to have these large sizes if i could prevent it...
