Hello All,
We are using IText 2.1.3 as part of our application to fulfill a
critical business use case. As a module implementer i am very impressed with
the IText library and more importently my client.
There was one problem we are facing regarding to Pdf size is becoming very
large. I am working on deeply from past few days to find the alternatives to
reduce the IText generated pdf size. I found one java tool to compress the
pdf file in sourceforge.net ie,. Multivalent20060102.jar and when i ran the
original Pdf generated by IText in this tool surprisingly the size reduction
is about 87% without loosing the quality of images.
When i ran the tool it gives me the following output.
C:\>java -cp Multivalent20060102.jar tool.pdf.Compress -compact -jpeg -old
original.pdf
file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/BSrinivas/Desktop/original.pdf, 1226715
bytes
PDF 1.5, producer=iText 2.1.3 (by lowagie.com), creator=null
additional compression may be possible with:
-compact
=> new length = 158388, saved 87%, elapsed time = 1 sec
When i created the Pdf without images there is no much compression by above
tool. I am wondering did i made any programatical mistake in adding the
images. I have attached the pdfs generated by IText "original.pdf" and when
compressed using the tool "original-o.pdf"
can any one help me in inspecting the original.pdf file in what metadata
causing the pdf size to became huge.
