It depends on your settings. If 0.20.5 is run at default settings, I would expect the PDF to be just under 2MB. A short test of my own confirms that (one JPEG of 929'406 bytes results in a PDF of 930'622 bytes). Maybe not all your images are really JPEGs or maybe you configured an ASCII85 filter for JPEG images or FOP, for some reason, decodes your JPEG images which can make them bigger. Without seeing the resulting PDF I cannot say what has happened on your side. > Is something in FOP increasing the resolution of the output if the images are > inserted? No, FOP inserts all images as is with no up- or downscaling. > Or is this something which is fixed in fop 0.93?
