Not a great user of pdf2swf myself, however.. .. I could supply you both with an example where the exact opposite is the case. Converting thiis particular pdf ( a music score of a concert study by Liszt, so there is a fair deal of graphic content in it - one which I'd normally render via Lily anyway ) gets dramatically reduced in size. So, rather than just general griping, how's about, - checking via verbose, exactly what sort of image content may possibly be responsible for the size increase of the resulting, swf. - which ( if any ) isn't - posting an example or two. This is after all, an open source project, which thrves on user feedback and testing. jooi, the above-mentioned Liszt pice contain pbm images. Regards, Chris. a demonstratin example?
