All, To be honest this is a test piece of code because it started out just
re-writing a pdf out so the output is exactly the same to see what happens and
even then the filesize jumps up.As far as practices go it makes sense but
ultimately not my main issue or priority at the minute. Has anybody else
experienced the same issue? I am using version 5.2.1 (the latest as far as i
can tell).

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] PDF merge - filesize after
I’m a java guy, but I’m curious about this method signature: static bool
RewritePdfFiles(string pdfFile, string outputFile) if you are trying to merge
PDFs, shouldn’t you be doing this: static bool MergePdfs(// an array of PDFs,
string mergedPdfFile); or maybe even static [bytes or a stream] MergePdfs(// an
array of PDFs); and let the caller deal with the output? From: Nick Bannister

IList<Dictionary<string, object>> master = new List<Dictionary<string,
object>>();

int totalProcessedPages = 0;
try

added.");

// step 1: creation of a document-object
pdfDocument =
new iTextSharp.text.Document(pdfReader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(1));
// step 2: we create a writer that listens to the document
//pdfWriter = new iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfCopy(pdfDocument, tmpFile);
pdfWriter =
new iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfSmartCopy(pdfDocument, tmpFile);
pdfWriter.CompressionLevel =

pdfWriter.SetFullCompression();
// step 3: we open the document
iTextSharp.text.pdf.

pdfWriter.SetPdfVersion(version);
pdfDocument.AddCreator(
"Cad-Capture");
pdfDocument.Open();
//}
}
// step 4: we add content
if (pdfReader != null)
