Hi,
the size is caused by the font being embedded in the document. The
FlateDecode is a compression, it makes things smaller.
You might want to not embed the font, or embed only subset (used
letters). Better to use 0.9.3, where the related things were improved.
See the PdfDocument::CreateFont() variants, each of them has
bool bEmbedd = true
argument. Set it to false to not embed the font. But beware, some PDF
viewers may fail to show the text when the font is not embedded.
Yet another option is to use one of the built-in fonts, instead of
system fonts, for example instead of Arial use Helvetica. The names of
base 14 (standard) fonts can be found at the end of
PdfFontFactoryBase14Data.h.
Hope it helps,
zyx
