Recompress Images tools seems to do nothing

Post by eleigh »

Verions 9.0, build 352.0

I have tried multiple permutations of settings in the Recompress Images tool. Every time, the files are simply copied or re-saved unchanged. The features of Recompress Images appear to be undocumented, so is it an unfinished feature?

Since the Optimise PDF tool works as expected, this isn't a problem; it's just not useful.
