Just the cropped stuff, without touching the metadata and links.
When I saved the file... it was... 163 MB. 
What happened to increase its size over 10 times?! Do you have any idea what I could do?
I still have the original 13,5 MB file, so we can experiment. I've tried removing hidden information again (without the extra cropping, which were just edges of pages and so on), and it got larger again - only 26,2 MB this time, but the thing that should've reduced its size still doubled it. And the strangest thing is that the same Acrobat did manage to reduce size by removing hidden info from some other files, so I'm completely at a loss here.  |
I have no idea. I'd have to try it myself. If the file does not contain any sensitive information, you could upload it to a free cloud service and post the link.
