Stupid question probably but is this possible and if so how and with what formatt?

not clear what you're reducing, but the best option that I've found, apart from reducing the file using the image size option, is to use Illustrator to do my reductions. Almost all formats come out quite well with it.

If you use Image, Image Size, and unclick the resample box then proportions and quality are all constrained (you see the line connecting all three of them). When you size down, then you end up with higher quality. I was told somewhere that was the way to do it -- then at the end set the quality you want.

you need to find out at what size and dpi the file is being used at!

If its being placed into a Quark file at 100% in a box 50mm x 50mm, and then being printed at 304.8 dpi, then use the image size facilty to adjust the file to these measurements!

Anything bigger than that size is needless as the postscript rips on back ends just take the res they need!

If its 1200mm x 600m, being printed at 200dpi then adjust it to this, ect, ect!
