Thank you again for the answer. Considering I'll use fo:external-graphic, is
there easy way to determine page size in style? For large attachments (100
pages) having many fo:page-sequence will not slow down the rendering
process?
Thanks,

Lucian Opris

fox:external-document doesn't allow any additional content besides the
full-page images. You'll have to determine the page sizes yourself and
use normal fo:page-sequence elements to set up the image for full-page
display.

The PDF size increases that much because there is currently no easy way
to cache the already transferred PDF objects so they are not transferred
again for each page. I've experimented with that some time ago but had
to disable that feature because of massive problems. I may revisit this
at some point (no current plans). If you have to add larger PDFs to a
document I suggest you do that as a post-processing step using Apache
PDFBox.
