> Hello,

> We're using PDF forms (AcroForms) as a template for
> generating document and we're facing a problem. The document
> generated with the form is much bigger than the same document
> created from scratch using the iText API. We share an ADSL
> connection and most of the time the generated PDF is > 400KB.
>
> I've done a small test with Acrobat Pro 7.0. Starting from an
> empty PDF file (filesize about 8Ko), I've only added a text
> field with basic font Arial and the filesize has increased to
> 200KB. Why so many differences of size just for a single text field?
>
> When the form is filled and flattened, the filesize does not
> change a lot. Is there a way to remove with Itext data
> relating to Acroforms when we flatten the form?
