We have just started looking into sacnning documents for electronic 
reserves. I would like to hear from anyone that uses Acrobat Capture 
2.0. When we scan a document into pdf format the file size seems to 
be large. A five page article is about 500,00 bytes. My question is 
how does one reduce file size but at the same time the quality 
remains the same? Is there a particular format that is better then 
another. Thanks
