The only thing that comes close to what you want is to create your
PDDocument with MemoryUsageSetting.setupMixed(...) as parameter.
What you should do is to care to not have anything duplicate. So if you
have a company logo on every page, create your object object only once.
Same for fonts. And try to have only one content stream per page. (We
recently had a guy who had a huge number of content streams and wondered
why his PDF was so big).

All,
We use PDFBox on a server that must handle many transactions with
(somewhat) limited memory. I'd like to limit the amount of memory used
to generate our PDFs, which we then serialize to byte-array,
base64-encode, etc. for ultimate delivery to some endpoint.
I can obviously limit the number of bytes produced by using a
size-limited OutputStream passed-into PDDocument.save(OutputStream),
but I'm wondering if PDFBox has any facilities within it to limit the
size of the object-tree in memory (or estimate its size, and we can
stop operations when it reaches a certain size) so that we don't end
up with a multi-GB object-tree that then fails to serialize to byte[]
because it is too big.
We are building our PDF documents from scratch, starting with the page
definitions, fonts, etc. then adding titles, paragraphs of text, etc.
It's all fairly straightforward, and we have full control over the
whole process up to and including the call to
PDDocument.save(OutputStream).
We are manually constructing our pages as well, so I suppose we could
simply limit the number of pages, but I'm more concerned about the
size of the memory used and not the number of pages.
Is there anything in PDFBox that can help us with this? We can always
count e.g. the number of bytes/characters we have written to the PDF,
but that seems less important than what is going on inside of the PDF
structure itself.
