Okay, I'm with the program now. Disk spanning, not compressing. Got it!
I've learned my new thing for the day. Can I go home now? :-)

Question: doesn't PDF-ing a doc frequently compress it about as much as
it is going to be? I've found that once I PDF, zipping the file rarely
gains me anything.

No need to hack the PDFs up - though I admire your Viking approach :).
Instead, use WinZip or the Windows back up tool, both of which have
disk-spanning features.
You may already have WinZip installed.
