I have an 11 x 17", 600 dpi PSD file that I need to convert to PDF for my printer. The file includes a fair amount of text that I would like to preserve; however, if I do not rasterize the text before saving, the resulting PDF is *huge* (200 Mb – as large as the original PSD). Rasterizing drops the file size to a fraction of the original (10 Mb).
My first hypothesis was that this problem resulted from the use of fonts without embedding permission. I rasterized those fonts, but the problem persists.
Any suggestions? What is causing the extra 190 Mb in file size?
Thanks!
