Re: [iText-questions] Compression not working?

[Gonzalo Vásquez Sáez]

The problem that we have is exactly what is described in te article you pointed me (as matter of fact, I've just also bought online iText in Action, first edition, as waiting 6 months for the second edition won't work for me right now). So: we are having duplicate company logos on the header of several pages, and they are ALWAYS inserted as new images. So now I rephrase the problem: how do I traverse the PDF document structure, to find out the duplicate images and replace them with references to the single copy I should have within the document?

Go to http://www.manning.com/affiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=223_212 and open chapter 2 (that's a free chapter). Go to page 43 and read the section about "Adding the same image more than once to the same document". If that's your problem, you should redesign your application. You should take away the cause of your problem; you shouldn't try to fix something you've done wrong in the first place.
