Re-Saving A PDF Document In Adobe Acrobat:
There are many applications available that create and read PDF files. Adobe Acrobat however was the first software program capable of reading and creating PDF files. Sometimes simply opening the file in Acrobat and choosing Save As can recover a corrupt PDF document.
From the File pulldown menu choose Save As. In the example above Acrobat Reader Professional was used so the Reduce File Size option is available.
Note: When saving the file adding R2, R3, etc. to the end of the original file name will help to differentiate the original from the new version(s). When trying to reduce the file size the new version(s) can be opened and Reduce File Size can be used again to further reduce the size of the file.
