Print to PDF

Hi there
I have found that the built in ArchiCAD PDF creator creates quite large files.

Lately I have been using CutePDF (File - Print to PDF) This solves the File Size Issue (Usually about 25% of the size) however it is very slow opening some pages (I think its related to certain fill types, 25%, 50% etc)

Can someone recommend another PDF creator which eliminates this problem yet still prints(saves) to a smaller size.

Thanks.

Dwayne

I use DoPDFv7, works well, is free (PC).
BTW, what is your typical PDF file size?

Hi Mark
Thanks for your reply. That PDF seems to have a few issues with random fills turning solid...

My PDF files are typically 5 - 12mb. Clients seem to complain if theyre more than 10mb
