Hi everybody,
since several years I use fop to produce PDFs. Now the request was to
produce PDF/A documents. So I embedded all fonts necessary for the
productions of the PDF.
After some test and some errors I was able to produce PDF/A complient
documents (at least FOP didn't throw any exceptions any more). But the
problem is, that the size of the files increased 10 times (from 25,3 kB
to 248 kB).
The fonts where embedded as True Type fonts in the fop.xml
<fonts>
<font embed-url="XXFont.ttf" kerning="yes" metrics-url="XXFont.xml">
<font-triplet name="XX" style="normal" weight="normal" />
</font>
...
</fonts>
I tried to convert the file with Acrobat. There the file size has grown
but not that much. Does anyone have any suggestion how to reduce the
file size? Do I make any errors when I include the fonts?
The mass of file we have to put into the archive will be a problem when
the file will be 1/4 MB of size...
Thanks
Tobi
P.S. I'm using FOP 1.0, JDK 1.6.0_13 and Windows Vista....
