My printer, who is generally fussy about PDF specs told me that as long as its to x-1a standard, there'll never be a problem.

If I'm designing an A4 advert, I set the paper size to A3, which leaves loads of room for the bleeds and crop marks etc.

An average full page colour advert usually ends up at about 2 or 3 mb, which is fine for email. (Though oddly if you design the same advert using Quark Xpress the PDF ends up smaller. Weird. Must be the layers etc)

How much CRAP written in one message!!!
No one listen to this person please...
