Ah!
While you could save the PDF to a file rather than a BAOS, the big
savings will be in calling copy.freeReader(reader) when you're done with
each reader in turn:
for (int x = 0; x < PdfReaderArray.length; x++) {
reader = PdfReaderArray[x];
for (int page = 0; page < reader.getNumberOfPages(); ) {
copy.addPage(copy.getImportedPage(reader, ++page);
}
copy.freeReader(reader);
}
Otherwise you're keeping everything from each reader in memory until you
"copy.close()".

Subject: [iText-questions] Out Of Memory Error Concatenating
Multiple PDFFiles
Is there a size limitation to a PdfCopy object and/or
PdfSmartCopy object? I have tried both, as suggested in iText in
Action, second edition, but get the same error.
I am concatenating multiple PDF files and I am now encountering
an Out-Of-Memory error as I import pages using code similar to the
following:
I have an input of PdfReader[] which contains 16 PdfReader
objects with approximately 457 pages when combined.
Document document = new Document();
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfCopy copy = new PdfCopy(document, baos);
document.open();
PdfReader reader = null;
for (int x = 0; x < PdfReaderArray.length; x++) {
reader = PdfReaderArray[x];
for (int page = 0; page < reader.getNumberOfPages(); ) {
copy.addPage(copy.getImportedPage(reader, ++page);
}
}
Any assistance is appreciated.
