[iText-questions] slow printing of pdf document with jpg images

[dott. Giacomo Galletto]

Hi,   I search through the mailing-list threads to search about a problem similar to mine but I didn't find anything. I'm generating PDF documents simply adding a JPEG image for each page. The document is created in a very fast way and it is perfectly readable with Acrobat Reader 5 or 6. The problem is when I try to print the document: the printing process is very slow: about a page per minute. Any of you had experience about this problem? Your help would be very appreciate. Thanks a lot.     The code I use to create PDF document is:   com.lowagie.text.Document document = null; PdfWriter pdfWriter = null;   try {      document = new com.lowagie.text.Document();      pdfWriter = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(path + "document.pdf"));                  document.open(); } catch(Exception ex) { // Exception handling here... }   if (document != null && pdfWriter != null) {                           boolean open = false;                               for (int t = 0; t < images.size(); t++) { // images is a Vector of byte[], each for every JPEG image to include in the document                 com.lowagie.text.Image immagine = com.lowagie.text.Image.getInstance((byte[])images.elementAt(t));         immagine.scaleToFit(formato.width() - 30, formato.height() - 30);                                          if (!open) {            document.open();            open = true;         }                                          immagine.setAbsolutePosition(3, 0);         document.newPage();         document.add(immagine);      } document.close();
