What information in those PDFs is superfluous in your context and can be thrown away? Regards, Michael PS: Knowing nothing about the PDFs in question it is hard to tell whether or not they can be compressed at all. There of course are some techniques like * replacing images with lower-resolution or lower-quality replacements (but you have not told us whether there are images in those PDFs and whether they may be downgraded); * removing embedded fonts if you know they are available to the target audience PDF viewers and provide the required information (but you have not told us whether there are such embedded fonts); * re-compressing the streams at highest compression setting and switching to object streams (but the files may already use those settings); * hunting for duplicate objects like identical header images included separately in the file (but you have not indicated whether there are such duplicates)... -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/Reduce-PDF-file-size-tp4660118p4660119.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions iText(R) is a registered trademark of 1T3XT BVBA.
