Hi,
I need to get small PDF documents with pictures.
Therefore I try to understand the way how FOP uses pictures, and what
determines the resulting size of the PDF document..
As an example, I generated a PDF document with FOP. It contains 20 pictures
and a few lines of text.
The sum of the sizes
You're probably working with an older version of FOP. Recent versions
include direct support for embedding JPEG which results in smaller PDF
files.
The files are bigger in your case because the JPEG gets decoded and
compressed pixel by pixel using the Flate algorithm.
