Large PDF file size on one machine (Read 2071 times)

David Waldmann Active Member Live to work, or work to live? Posts: 1924 Gender:	Large PDF file size on one machine 07/03/13 at 08:18:30 DBA/Evo seems to generally be very efficient in making PDFs, i.e. the ones that get emailed as Acks, Quotes, Invoices, etc. Every computer in our system typically creates file sizes of around 7-12 KB for a 1 page document, except for one which creates file sizes of 1,153 or 1,154 KB every single time. Any ideas??!

Do you have other PDF generators installed that are different? Shouldn't matter but just looking for differences.

kevind Active Member I was more than willing to "pony up", how b'out U? Posts: 639 Gender:	Re: Large PDF file size on one machine Reply #8 - 07/11/13 at 10:09:05 David / Bethany: Look for a file named PDFWrite.rsp on the rogue Machine. If it exists, Rename it to something else and see if your PDF's shrink.

BethanyW Browser Posts: 46	Re: Large PDF file size on one machine Reply #10 - 07/12/13 at 04:48:51 Also for the record, when I use CutePDF to print the files they're only 30 KB, not even close to 1 MB, so I'm inclined to think that isn't the problem.
