Do AI native files in Indesign cause large PDF exports?


hello all:

 

i novice @ indesign exporting pdf, have 45 page document want save web viewing only.... it's design portfolio.  there lot of ai graphics have placed in document (about 20 ai files) , when export pdf indesign smallest file size setttings, can down 10 mb. have ton of jpegs in there, 72 dpi resolution, cut down on size of pdf.

 

so question is: can pdf file size down more if take ai files , save them jpegs , re-place them in indesign document again jpegs versus ai files?  native ai files bloat indesign document?

 

thanks everyone!

no. in fact opposite true. less bitmap images (jpegs) have better. vector artwork (assuming ai files vector) small in filesize , pin sharp in pdf not need compressed.
