Does it seem unreasonable to anyone but me that a Scribus document<br>
that occupies 2.5 MB should balloon to 52.6 MB as a pdf document?<br>
What is the typical expansion when preparing pdf's from Scribus?<br></blockquote><div><br>The way you put your question is quite humoristic ! The fact is the P in PDF stands for Portable and this tells a lot to what's happening. The pictures are included into your PDF but they are only linked to your Scribus file. So, yes, a .sla file can "balloon" (I like this expression) to just about anything when we turn it into a PDF, depending on what is linked to it (the .sla file).<br>
