Bug description:  Output file size using pdf lib

Description:
------------
Hi

I'm converting an Oracle Forms/Reports application to the web using PHP. 
I'm using the pdf lib to generate the reports and using the pdf_show_boxed
routine for all output. The reports are all text, no pics of any kind. The
 problem is that the output from even a one page report is huge, 380k
compared to the identical Oracle report output which is around 6k.  I know
you can't tell a lot without the specifics but.. My code is tight and
doesn't seem to be calling the routine any more than necessary, the output
looks fine, the generation response time is fine... but the file size is
huge for a small report.  Got any ideas on how I can reduce this? Does the
pdf_show_boxed routine generate a lot more output than other output
routines I could use? Any advice would be appreciated. Other than this I'm
very impressed with the functionality of this stuff!

Thanks,

Mike
