PDF size 9 mbt is possible

[Yoni Dagan]

Hello,

We have a problem with export to PDF. We are exporting a report of 4 pages. Most of these pages has textual information and only one picture of PNG (~50K). However the PDF file is 9Mbt. Does it sound resonable? How can we make it much smaller

Thank you

Hello Sergey,

You can check out this KB article and see how much difference does it make when disabling the font embedding.

Hello Sergey,

What error do you receive? The font embedding setting would make a difference depending on the report size ( e.g. 1000+ rows) and depending on the exact font used. That is why we kindly ask you to send us the report and exported pdf, so that we can review it locally and advise you accordingly. You can open a support ticket, zip and attach your report there.

Sincerely yours,
Steve

Hello Sergey,

This is just a quick follow up, as we've noticed what is causing the problem in your extension settings. You have mistakenly entered RTF for the extension name with fontembedding instead of PDF. Change this line:

<Extension name="RTF" visible="true">
to
<Extension name="PDF" visible="true">
....
