Are you comparing an iText generated uncompressed copy with an iText generated compressed copy? I doubt, I think you're probably comparing some external generated PDF to a iText-generated compressed copy of it. Note that PdfCopy can produce bigger output stream than the input stream. But then, yes, in some cases you can wind up w/ a bigger file when compressing data. It all depends on it's randomness. -hwh BTW: Is there any reason you don't mention the version of Ghostscript you're using? Anyway, I think current Ghostscript should compile just fine on Solaris 10. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
