If a PDF is too large to be sent via email the file size may be reduced, as long as its layers haven't previously been compressed.


Open the large PDF file in a pdf viewer:


1) Click File

2) Click Print


3) Change Printer to "print to PDF"

4) Click Print

5) Choose a save Location

6) Name the File to be reduced

7) Click Save


- After the save is complete, attach the newly created file to an email


NOTE: if you notice that the file is the same size or larger than the original, then the original file was already compressed.
