RE: [Swftools-common] pdf2swf - How to reduce the swf file size?
Hi Matthias, Thank you very much for your help. I tried using only the subpixels=1 option for some of the other pdfs and got a very good result. Also I used the --flatten and subpixels=1 options for some of the pdfs, but it is effective that much. Some pdf pages having the size 5MB to 15 MB(single page). In that case the swf size is around 2 MB. I cant use this much size swf file in my application. Except the below options, if any other options available?. I am in trouble because of this size problem.

I used the --flatten option also, it created the output SWF file size is 1036 KB. Well, try to combine the two, and also lower the jpeg quality a bit more: pdf2swf --flatten -s jpegquality=30 -s subpixels=1 file.pdf -o file.swf It might be, though, that the file size is due to vector graphics- in that case, lowering the jpeg quality won't have any effect, and poly2bitmap is indeed your best bet.

It converts everything except text into a bitmap. Is there any way to reduce the SWF size without affecting the image quality?. You might want to try --flatten: pdf2swf --flatten file.pdf -o file.swf . That helps sometimes. Greetings Matthias

Hello Matthias, Thanks for your quick reply. I tried the below mentioned options, but it is not fine. My PDF page (1 page) size is 3218 KB. To reduce the SWF file size I used the option pdf2swf -s subpixels=1 -s jpegquality=50 file.pdf -o file.swf, but the output SWF file size is 923 KB. I used the --flatten option also, it created the output SWF file size is 1036 KB. So both of the options not use to reduce the SWF file size. If any options available like -O1 or poly2bitmap without affecting image quality, it will help to all.
