Amyuni Print size 200mb v 3mb for adobe

Post by mcmullank »

I am printing a pdf file using VB. When you look at the spooler, the print size for the document is 205mb. When I print the same document using acrobat, the file size is 3.05mb

Is there a reason that the print file is so large in creator? I have also found that if I run the code again, the file size is then 98mb

What is causing this??

Code:

If vDetails(Me.Tag).Type = 9 Then
Me.pdfViewer.StartPrint "", True
For i = 1 To Me.pdfViewer.PageCount
Me.pdfViewer.PrintPage i
Next i
Me.pdfViewer.EndPrint
Exit Sub
End If

Hello,

I suspect that the situation you have described can be improved by calling the ClearPage() method after printing a page.

The ClearPage keep only one page in memory.

With AxPDF
.StartPrint("", False) 'prints to default printer

For intCtr = 1 To .PageCount
.PrintPage(intCtr)
.ClearPage(intCtr) 'clears page from memory
Next
End With

Hope this helps?

Hello,

I have the same issue as posted above. I have clearpage() after printpage() in the for loop, but my print spool is around 90mb for 16 pages. Also some pages are being printed being either having a half inch cut off the right side or a half inch on the left side being crammed together and some text overlaping. Is there anything else i can try?

Hello,

I suggest that you send a sample of the PDF document you are trying to print to support@amyuni.com.

We'll take a look at it.
