HI,

We are doing some CD label design with Illustrator. I noticed that we
can print the .ai file to .pdf and greatly reduced the file size (from
22M to 1.5M.) As I know, .pdf is also vertor based so quality will
remain the same for vector based graphics.

So it is good enough to send just the pdf files to print shop? This
will greatly reduce our efforts as we can now just email them the
files.

Eric.
