Keynote question
« on: January 28, 2023, 04:50:30 PM »
I created a Keynote presentation. About 20 slides with about 2 dozen photos. When I exported the file as a PDF to be emailed it was over 70mb in size. Too large to email.
So, I need to reduce each photo's file size from 3-4 mb each down to 400 kb. But the originals are all over in my 20,000 photo library.
Is there an easy way to gather/package all the images like one can do in Adobe InDesign? I see no linking feature that would help. Suggestions? :-)

I suspect you may have figured out an answer to this by now, but in case you haven't:

Another is using Adobe's PDF settings if you have the full version of Acrobat, which allows you to select the quality of the PDF AND the resolution of the images.
