The mecanism consists of modifying the PDF layer file filling static and dynamics fields (page number for exemple) and merge it on each pages on the source file. This mecanism works fine but i ve a big probleme with the final PDF file size.
The problem is that i can't control the layer file and it contains embedded fonts.
Are they fully embedded or subset embed? Are they the same fonts you will use for stamping or different fonts?
To merge the layer in the base file i use a system of stamper, imported file and addtemplate. It think that each time i merge the layer file, the fonts are emebedded again even if they already exist in the final file.
Correct, that is exactly what is happening.
So, how can i do to merge the layer file without including the embedded fonts ?
You don't.
Is it possible to modify an existing PDF file and remove the embedded fonts ?
Yes, but non-embedded fonts are a BAD THING.
How can i share the fonts in the final document (embed the fonts only once) ?
Depends on the answers to the questions above...
