BIG PDF files with LOTS of images

[Matthew Baker <mbaker@zeus.gmd.de>]

Hello,

This massive monstrosity I have been working on for the past few weeks is
finally nearly ready for the printers, who are graciously accepting it in
PDF form.  Now I have a problem: this document doesn't have many pages but
it has a *lot* of images.  Acrobat grows in size with each page and it
runs out of memory before I've browsed very far into the document.  I'd
like Acrobat to clear all it's memory before loading the next page.  The
file isn't that big (only a few meg) so it must be storing all the
embedded JPEG images internally as uncompressed bitmaps.  Is this problem
related to PDF storing images globally so that they can be reused (I'm no
PDF expert but I have vague recollections of it doing this)?  If so, can
that be turned off in context so that the images are deleted from memory
after use?  And does this have anything to do with the preset option in
externalfigure (which dumps TeX errors when I play with it)?

One more question: what does one do to make PDF bookmarks?  From what I
can tell, I just need something like

\placebookmarks[section]
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\setuplist
  [section]
  [criterium=all,
   interaction=all]

which I try but it doesn't seem to do anything.  I get promising looking
entries in my tui file with bm:: as the name of the list so I figure I
must be close.

Many many thanks for your help.  This should be my last question for a
while...

Regards,
Matthew
