Optimize PDF

[Daniel Shaw]

I currently own a pdf copy of the Pathfinder Core Rulebook, and wanted to know if there is a way unlock the pdf to optimize it for use with a kindle DX. The Kindle DX displays it well, but page turns take a long time since the pdf is not optimized for the reader. Compressing the file or reducing the quality would help tremendously, but I know that the PDF is locked to prevent tampering. Is there a way that Paizo support might be able to provide me with an optimized copy or provide an option to unlock the document properties in Acrobat for this purpose?

Thanks.

No, it can't be unlocked. But, if you go here you can find a downloadable PDF version of the PRD.

I've been searching a bit through the messageboards for threads related to the problem of the Core Rulebook pdf's speed. I've noticed since the most recent update of the Core Rulebook pdf the speed of searches in the pdf has reduced dramatically. The new pdf searches through the file a page at a time at a rate of about 1 or 2 seconds per page, whereas the previous version finds the first reference to any word, in any area of the text within only 1 or 2 seconds TOTAL!
