adobe digital editions converter

I have a question concerning the software adobe digital editions converter - once you convert your ebook to pdf format the file is so large ~30,000 kb or so how you reduce the size to around 1,000 kb so it is more manageable. I can see the software seems to take a picture of each page but I cannot figure how to convert it. I appreciate any help with this.

Sorry, I am not very good with computers. I am talking about when you convert a kindle file to pdf with adobe digital editions converter. The file is a very large pdf file and I would like to know how to make it smaller.

You need to browse in the Kindle Forum here <> , perhaps post this question there. I am just a little confused as to why you would need to convert to PDF; but anyway don't mind me, someone with more savvy will be able to assist you. Good luck!

Welcome to MobileRead..

I also don't know why you'd want to convert to PDF... Maybe you can enlighten us?

Adobe Digital Converter takes a book with drm and converts it to a pdf file which is very large. I am trying to figure out how to take the large pdf file and make it smaller. Since the software seems to take a picture of each page I am guessing that is why the file is so large. Sorry I am very limited with my computer knowledge.

there are other ways to remove drm that doesn't leave you with a pdf file. Google about and something will surface ....
