Ryan was extremely patient and persistent to solve the issue
Ryan was beyond patient with me to solve my issue. I really felt like he was determined to have me understand the instructions he was giving me towards the solution. He used a few of approaches. One of which was sending me a visual with arrows.....That worked!!!! His patience and persistence is refreshing and truly appreciated.

How do I flatten an existing PDF?
Make a backup copy of your PDF file. Open the copy and choose Advanced > PDF Optimizer. Click the Clean Up tab. Select Remove Hidden Layers Content and Flatten Layers, and then click OK.
What does it mean to flatten a file?
When you finish editing all the layers in your image, you can merge or flatten layers to reduce the file size. Flattening combines all the layers into a single background layer.
Is flattening PDF same as compressing?
Flattening will convert PDFs into a JPEG, which might reduce some of the quality – but not by much. Compressing the PDF before you flatten it will make it take up less space without compromising its quality. It might sound impossible to reduce the file size while maintaining its resolution – but it's not!
What is flatten PDF in Canva?
Flattening your PDF converts your design with multiple layers into one. This ensures that all of your design's elements get printed.
