Reason I have asked this question is that I want to experiment with these
programs.
Have you seen some of the new manuals published by Sony?
These are monster manuals but in size they are small. I want to find out how
they do that.
I have found that I can combine schematic sections with Adobe Photoshop
Elements.
What I am doing now is to clean up the sheets, that is to remove all the
noise in them.
It seams that the less noise in the drawing, the smaller the compressed JPG
file.
You get the idea.
Any way, I am just being nosy as to how Sony does it.

Just for the sake of knowing, I just zipped a folder containing a
service manual consisting of six PDF files totaling over 12MB using
Winzip, the resulting zip file is 1.5MB. That's the only way I know to
make a large PDF file small for storage or for upload/download. I think
from now on whenever I upload a manual to the members area I'll zip it
first, anyone can unzip it.
