Compress PDF file with embedded images

Having business related documents on a Enterprise Content Management (ECM) platform, for the sake of governance a set of usage policies has to be in place. Basic examples of these are:

  • File size constraint: a submitted file cannot be larger than an admissible threshold.
  • file type unification: a single file type, or a reduced set of types, should be enforced.
However, scanned files converted into PDF without OCR turn into files with huge images embedded into them. This can turn a simple document unfit to submit into the ECM.
Fortunately I found a solution on this post here. I  tried the Irfanview solution and it worked fine.
HTH.
