Saving in earlier adobe formats

[ERH@adobeforums.com]

I can use Distller to create a pdf in earlier versions of acrobat, but when I save those distilled files using Acrobat 6 I can't specify other versions, such as 5 or 4. Can this be done, and does it need to be done for users who may not have version 6?

In Acrobat 6 Pro, go to Advanced/PDF Optimizer to save to older versions (1.4 or 1.3)

Another option is to select File > Reduce File Size... and then choose
your desired compatibility level.
