Thanks John but what way are you talking about?? (Maybe Jan's post but 
his comes AFTER yours??)

I produce using Scribus 1.4.0 RC5, My number of pages are between 30 and 
50 each month with photos, and it is A4 size in colour. My 'Max Image 
Resolution' is set to 100dpi and my Compression Method is set to 
'Automatic' and Quality to 'Maximum'.

Last month's issue came out at around 30Mb - after the 'pdftops' & 
'ps2pdf' conversion the file size was just under 3Mb!! This is what is 
available for the Members to download from my Server. (Many of the 
Members are in Africa where Bandwith is a problem and Net speed dismal!!)

Thanks to John and Jan!!
