Hi all,
I've got a PDF I'd like to print out, I need to email it to someone to print it, but it's too big to send. I need to email to, I can't share it or give a link to download it.
I need to strip off about 6-7MB...
Any ideas how I can achieve this?
Many thanks,
Ben

Can't you compress it (Zip etc.)?

Ah ha! That might be an option... Sas, I'm not sure I could dropbox it...The guys in the printing room asked for an email, so that's what I'll give them...Bit a zip/gz/bz might be a good way to go

Ace, zip -9 and a few seconds later and it's just over 7mb smaller!

Grrr, the mail server seemed to see the 19mb zipped file as something over 25mb  I ended up splitting the document in two...

FTP? What’s wrong with using that? Email isn’t meant for such large files.
