How to reduce the pdf file size?

[Former Member]

Hi,

This is how my scenario goes...

I have an interactive form, wherein I have a submit button that attaches the PDF form in a mail. The size of the form seems to increase drastically when it gets attached to the mail. Ratio is something like this 200KB - 1MB.

Please give me a suggestion on this

Hi Sathish ,

I want to check the size of the pdf created by me before sending an email.Did you get any solution foe your below query?

You can get the size of the pdf file by binding a context attribute of type binary to the attribute pdfSource of the interactiveForm ui element. Then check the size of that attribute with

byte[] pdfBytes = wdContext.currentContextElement().getPdfSource();

if (pdfBytes.length < 100000) {

//do something

}

See if that helps!
