typically lossy, a process that permanently removes some pixel data. You can apply lossy JPEG or JPEG2000
compression to color images at various levels (minimum, low, medium, high, maximum). For JPEG2000
compression, you can also specify lossless so that no pixel data is removed. Compression for monochrome images is
lossless, except for JBIG2 compression, which provides both lossy and lossless modes of compression.

Fonts panel
To ensure an exact match to the source document, you should embed all fonts used in the document. If an exact
match is not needed and you prefer a smaller file, you can choose not to embed fonts for roman text and East Asian
text (Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, and Japanese). Text in these languages is replaced with a
substitution font when viewed on a system that does not have the original fonts. The Fonts panel of the PDF
Optimizer contains two lists for fonts, fonts that are available for unembedding, and fonts to be unembedded.
Certain fonts aren't available for unembedding and don't appear in the Fonts panel. To unembed fonts in a document,
select one or more fonts in the Embedded Fonts list, and click the Unembed button. If you change your mind about
unembedding a font, select it in the list on the right and click the Retain button.
Transparency panel
If your PDF includes artwork that contains transparency, you can use presets in the Transparency panel of PDF
Optimizer to flatten transparency and reduce file size. (Flattening incorporates transparency into corresponding
artwork by sectioning it into vector-based areas and rasterized areas.) PDF Optimizer applies transparency options
to all pages in the document before applying other optimization options.
If you select the Acrobat 4.0 And Later compatibility setting, the Transparency panel is enabled and all transparency
in the file is flattened during optimization. This ensures compatibility with Acrobat 5.0 and earlier, which doesn't
support transparency.
When you create flattening presets, they appear with the default presets in the Transparency panel.
Note: Transparency flattening cannot be undone after the file is saved.
Discard Objects panel
The Discard Objects panel lets you specify objects to remove from the PDF and lets you optimize curved lines in
CAD drawings. You can discard objects created in Acrobat and in other applications. Selecting an object removes all
occurrences of that object within the PDF.
In the Discard Objects area, you can select from these and other options:
Disables all actions related to submitting or importing form
Discard All Form Submission, Import And Reset Actions
data, and resets form fields. This option retains form objects to which actions are linked.
Makes form fields unusable with no change to their appearance. Form data is merged with the
Flatten Form Fields
page to become page content.
Removes any actions in the PDF that use JavaScript.
