Differences Between Acrobat XI Standard and Acrobat XI Pro PDF File Reduction Capabilities

Hi all, I am looking into purchasing Acrobat XI but not sure which version I should get. I have worked with Acrobat 8 Standard and remembered that I cannot reduce PDF size by clicking Reduce File Size under Document if the PDF contains images so I am looking to upgrade. I have tried Acrobat XI Pro Trial version and messed around with Save As Other >> Reduced File PDF to reduce my PDF files and that seemed to work well. I've read that in Acrobat XI Standard, one can reduce PDF files by using Save As >> Reduce File and the resulting PDF file will be similar in size to the PDF file that had been reduced by the PRO version. Can someone please confirm this, thanks in advance.

Hi sraja,
Yes, that option is available in both the Acrobat Pro and Standard versions, and the results will be similar, if not the same. Acrobat Pro offers additional optimizing capability, as described here: Acrobat Help | Optimizing PDFs.
I hope that helps!
Best,
Sara

  • Difference between Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat X?

  • Difference between Acrobat X Pro and Acrobat X Pro - English, Francais, Deutsch

    We are in the middle of redeploying Acrobat X Pro across some of the workstations in our organization. Previously, we had made an AIP. We're uninstalling this and redeploying using the bootstrap method. The weird thing is, our network inventorying software is listing a different name for Acrobat: "Adobe Acrobat X Pro - English, Francais, Deutsch." The rest of our machines simply say "Adobe Acrobat X Pro." What is the difference between these two? Why are the names different? We are deploying the 10.0 installer and applying the 10.1.2 quarterly patch.

    It really depends.  If it's a true Adobe distribution then it's the ENU (English Only) distribution.  The "...- English, Francais, Deutch" distribution is just that.  It is the distribution that will load English, French or German by default depending on the OS language that it's installed.  There are other features but that is the basic difference.

  • Combined PDF page display speed difference between Acrobat 8 Pro and Acrobat X Pro

    I have encountered a display speed issue with regards to combining Tiffs with Acrobat X Pro.  The Tiffs are between 200 KB and 600 KB.  Tested the issue by using a series of Tiffs originally combined using Acrobat 8 Pro but used Acrobat X Pro to combine them.  When I open the combined PDF files using X, I can cycle through the pages of the one created using 8 significatinly faster (i.e. about as fast as I can click) but the file created using X is significately slower.  Note: PDF file size is smaller using X (30.9 MB) than same combined files using 8 (46.1 MB).  Any ideas on what might be causing this issue?

    Found a Tips & Tricks document for Acrobat 8 which indicated the default Monochrome Compression setting for Acrobat 8 is CCITT G4.  Recreated the combined PDF file from the original Tiffs using X Pro with the modified setting and works like a charm.  Thanks for the point in the right direction.

  • How can I Append the same (altered) web page to the same Acrobat 9 Pro PDF file more than once

    The Acrobat 9 Pro utility in IE 8 of the Windows 7 Pro OS has a selection to "Append to Existing PDF," however it only allows appending the same web page one time only.  if the majoriety of the page data content is changed by selecting list item at the top of the page, I need to (re-)add the page with new content to the same (selected) PDF file, however the utilitiy does not allow this due to its maintaining a special index of each page base on the page URL or name.  Can the this index or the page itself be changed whenever the page is altered to make Acrobat think it is a new page? 

    I don't use IE, but I would suspect you can clear the cache or such to reset this option. You could also just open the web site directly in Acrobat and play the game there.

  • Is there a difference between the macbook air and the macbook pro?

    i know the specs but are there some differences where you can tell me about??

    The differences are pretty obvious if you've read the technical specifications comparison. Which MacBook Pro are you comparing the MacBook Air against? There are additional differences if you're comparing between 13, 15 or 17" models.
    The most obvious differences:
    Optical Drive
    Ethernet port
    FireWire port
    i5/i7 CPU architecture
    Dedicated GPU (15 & 17 MBP)
    RAM and HDD upgradeability
    Backlit keyboard

  • Is there any way to save an Adobe Acrobat X Pro pdf file as a Word file WITHOUT section breaks?

    I need to save (export) several pdf files as Word files. I need the Word files to NOT have  section breaks. Is this possible to do?  I have tried the options in the Settings (Retain flowing text; Retain page layout) but it does not help.

    Actually when thate are saved as Word what you see on the screen is what you get in Word. Where the lines end show as returns so you may have to hand remove all returns to join all parts of a sentence. So there may be  section breaks or page breaks that you have to remove.

  • Difference between Report Template "Standard (PPR)" and "Standard"?

    What is the difference between Report Template "Standard (PPR)" and Report Template "Standard"? What does PPR mean and what makes it different? Why would you use PPR rather than just standard?
    Thanks,
    Linda

    Hello,
    PPR (Partial Page Refresh) is just a term used to describe some AJAX pagination and sorting functionality, it's just a holdover from before the term AJAX existed.
    You can just change the template and on your report to enable that functionality. In 3.0 it will just be on off switch in your pagination options.

  • What's the difference between wcc system components and standard components

    hi Experts,
    My customer has a question on the difference between wcc system components and standard components, I didn't find it from doc, anyone can help on answering this?
    Best regards

    Hi ,
    System components are those which are providing the basic functionalities on UCM server by default . Standard components are those which are provided as-in on the server but need to be enabled per case basis . For example Framework Folders which is not necessary for the basic functionalities but is needed if user wants to .
    This guide gives the administration level overview for UCM  : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10792/toc.htm
    Hope this helps .
