This document contains known issues for Acrobat DC not covered in the Acrobat and Reader documentation. Adobe identified the following issues at the time Acrobat DC was released. Separate help documents or release notes cover issues that arose since the release. If an update fixes an issue, the version number is noted. Bugs associated with an issue in this document appear in brackets [ ].
The known issues related to macOS Mojave 10.14 are covered in Acrobat and macOS Mojave 10.14 compatibility.
The same issue is happening to me. I've found a fix, but it's somewhat of a pain to do this every time one prints. Open the task manager before printing, then when you print to Adobe, an 'Acrobat Distller' App will appear at the top. In Acrobat, you can view and interact with high-quality 3D content created in professional 3D CAD or 3D modeling programs and embedded in PDFs. For example, you can hide and show parts of a 3D model, remove a cover to look inside, and turn parts around as if holding them in your hands. The past seven days have seen the avid preparations for the launch of The Coalition's latest Gears of War title, the arrival of a couple of new Insider builds, and more. Be sure to catch up below. That question does not have anything to do with transparency. Anyway: I am not aware of any automated solutions that can do this. If you have Adobe Acrobat Professional and an image editing program, you can configure Acrobat to edit the scans embedded in your PDF using the image editing application.

I had to add bleeds and enlarge an eight-page complex PDF. Traditional methods of working directly in Adobe or within InDesign were not feasible. I had to bring the PDF into Illustrator.
They involve what I think are very high-resolution JPEG images; there were many layers, various clipping masks etc. The original PDFs were huge: 1,250,000 kb!
I successfully worked in Illustrator to create the correct size, I then placed them in InDesign to ensure the correct size and the bleeds and get an eight-page PDF. Exporting to PDF took way too long and crashed InDesign. It may be even too big to work on our digital press.
Using the pre-flight option in Adobe crashed the Adobe PDF reader. Saving as a PDF to reduce file size in Adobe did not significantly reduce the file size.
What are my options? Is there some way to unilaterally flatten all the layers in Illustrator before I save it as a PDF to place or even just save it as a PDF that I can then combine to send to the digital press??

The best compression technique I use for making PDF's smaller without loosing quality is saving it using the Adobe PDF Preset: PDF/X-1a:2001.
How it makes the file smaller is by defining a set of rules that forbid the use of certain PDF functions that are irrelevant for printing purposes and to enforce others that do improve its usefulness in prepress.

This is a little cumbersome, but works for me sometimes. It should lower the file size and allow you to retain the ability to select/copy/paste text in PDF:
- Separate all text from image layers in AI file. Turn off text layers.
- Open document in PS to flatten and save each page to a separate PSD or JPEG file. Be sure to select Crop To: Bleed Box.
- Go back to AI and turn text layers on and image layers off. If there is lots of overlap or effects on text, you may need to place some on image layers.
- Place AI file (now only text) and PSD files into ID.
- Export ID as PDF. File size should be much lower.
If you aren't worried about the text being selectable, you can open the PDF directly in PS and eliminate the step of separating the text from the image layers in AI (being sure to Crop To: Bleed Box) for each page. Just place each flattened file into the INDD and then export to PDF.

In my experience the large file size is due to Illustrator saving extra data help the file be easily editable when you re-open it. The most reliable method I have found for getting rid of this data is to save the file from Illustrator as a .eps or .pdf, and then open the file in a program call 'Inkscape' (https://inkscape.org/en/download/). From Inkscape I re-save the file. The majority of the time this removes most of the extra data (I tried doing this to two example files on my computer and it turned a 30MB file into a 10MB file and a 2.60 MB file into a 0.29MB file). This method is not perfect and will not always reduce the file size to what I know the file size should be.

When you save your file from illustrator to pdf make sure unckheck illustrater editing capabilities, embed page thumbnails. Also check compression to downloadable sample to 150dpi.Make sure the pictures used are also to a minimal size (image size).

I often export PDF files from Illustrator to use them as resizable vector icons in Xcode.
An iOS app should be as lightweight as possible, and PDFs are really hefty comparing to PNGs. For example, a simple monochrome 32x32 icon PNG usually takes no more than 1 KB, while the same PDF icon can easily take 200 KB! (I tried Fazaal Naufer's solution and got the 600 KB icon!)
I tried different options and through the long path of experience I came up with this profile:
Minimalistic (iOS).joboptions.
It's an Adobe PDF Preset, you can chose it when saving a file as a PDF, but first, you need to download the file and put it to the following folder:
The idea behind this profile is to turn off all redundant functions. As the result you can get the icon taking only 40 KB. I believe, it can be improved further.

I had a really large document just 2 pages but the file included a lot of clipping masks and transparencies.(at 25MB) What I do is rasterize the whole page and then save it as PDF/X-1a:2001. Because, I find that if you don't rasterize it, you will see the outline of your text boxes and if you place a png you may see the border around the image... just didn't feel comfortable with those this lines.. So after doing those steps, the file was down to 5000kb. Much better!!
