Hey guys,
I have to make a few .PDF forms for a site. I need a small file, 36Kb or around that size, single-page. How do I make a .PDF ? I could use photoshop, by the file always ends up too big. Also, any advice on making a .PDF is appreciated. Mac OSX if it helps.

If you want to optimize the pdf it's best that you get your hands on Distiller. The install usually creates a printer profile too - so you can print directly to pdf or use Distiller on it's own.
There are a number of options for output in distiller's settings - and you can customize the hell out of it too (for web, for print etc).
My suggestions is that you go here: http://www.adobe.com/products/ac…
and buy Acrobat Professional.

or you could just get a simple free print-to-pdf post script printer thing for yourself. did i mention FREE?
yeah. make your file in whatever program you want, choose to print, choose the pdf post-script thingy, and it prints the file as a pdf. pretty small files too.
yeah!
