Hi there,
Our company is running Axapta 3.0 SP4 (KR2).
We generate a number of documents out of Axapta every day in PDF format and have found that the file size is way too big. For example, a single A4 page is approx 430Kb.
I initially suspected that it might have something to do with our company logo (the JPG stored in Axapta) so I reduced the file size by lowering the resolution and saving in PNG format. No effect. I then removed the logo altogether and it had no impact at all on file size.
If I print one of these PDF files using a PDF print driver such as CutePDF the file size is only approx 25Kb.
So I am certain that Axapta's internal PDF generator is massively inefficient, creating PDFs more than 15 times the size they should be. Our customers and vendors have complained about the file size and also that sometimes the PDF files we've sent are corrupted.
I'm really hoping that there is a patch that has addressed this. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?
Regards,
Peter.
