set LOC=C:\Program Files (x86)\PDFRead
set OPT=-p prs505-p -i pdf -c "Mythology" -f "lrf" -m "portrait-full" -r "none" --no-dilate --dpi "600" --colorspace "rgb" --colors "256" --optimize
let me know what you guys think and if i should change something, decided to keep color as new reader will be coming with color.
thanks!

I think you would benefit from the dilation (i.e. don't use --no-dilate) that PDFRead does especially if you get the update in post #1 of this thread in the file 'pdfread-MinFilter5-mod-bin.zip' and use 600 DPI.
The dilation
bolds the text so that any reduction in size from it's original dimensions, say, 3000x4000 down to 520x640 can still retain
some thickness of the original text.
Just experiment on a small page range like
--first-page "31" --last-page "31" to see which setup you prefer.
The 'optimize .PNGs' will help with the resulting filesize without too much of a processing hit.
See these sample conversions of page 31 of a Archive.org (merryadventureso00pyle2.pdf) scanned book.
