Modify Conversion Settings

Acrobat Distiller comes with preset conversion settings to optimize a document for an intended destination. If you create a PDF file from a Microsoft Office application, the PDFMaker plug-in has several options available that can be changed using Preferences from the Acrobat menu, or if you own Office 2007 or Office 2010 by choosing Preferences from the Acrobat ribbon. If none of the presets suits the document you’re publishing, you can modify a preset to create and save the parameters as a custom Adobe PDF Settings file with the .joboptions extension. Chapter 11 is devoted to optimizing PDF documents.
