I have a pdf I created. I'm trying to reduce the file size... something I do quite often (by just going to Document > Reduce File Size). However, in this instance, I'm getting the following message: "This PDF file contains attachments. PDF Optimizer will not process the attachments. You'll need to open each attachment and run this command to process all files."
I did not attach anything to the document, so it must mean something that I'm not understanding. I created the file using QuarkXPress 7. I just imported images (vector mostly, but a few bitmapped images). I have never had this issue before, so I'm not sure what to do about it. Oh... and if I just hit "OK" it does reduce the size slightly... from 7 mb to 6.7. Normally it will go down to less than 1 mb.

PS I'm using Acrobat 9 Professional
You can attach other files to your pdf. Good for bundling related files together. To attach a file choose Document > Attach a file...
To see if your PDF does indeed have attachments, click the paper clip symbol at bottom right of application window. A list will pop up. Highlight and delete any unwanted attachments.
