Hi Vignesh,perfect answer by Michael already (thanks!). Just an additional remark: The default is to compress the page content stream and j.writePDFfile ('plot', write_compress=False) will disable the compression. So it will become even bigger, but allows you to view the content in an editor. Now, how to reduce the size? The only option is to try to reduce the amount of data to be included ...

Hi Vignesh You didn't provide a complete example, but I assume that your "j" is a canvas.canvas instance, right? The writePDFfile method of canvas creates a document.page and calls document.document's writePFfile method for you. If you want to specify keyword arguments for the latter when you use canvas.writePDFfile, write them as "write_compress" etc. Michael Am Mo., 24.

Unfortunately, due to the data i have, the resulting file size is large. I found in the manual, about the 'compress' function in the module document but i don't know how to use it. Can someone help me in this regard? I tried "j.writePDFfile ('plot', compress=True, compresslevel=6)", but i get an error message stating there is "an unexpected argument compress and compresslevel" Thanks Vignesh TG _______________________________________________ PyX-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pyx-user_______________________________________________ PyX-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pyx-user
