Print Issue in 2.038

Post by docu-track99 »

The print function is still very slow and creates PDF's that are 20x larger than the original PDF. We are waiting for the Viewer SDK which I would assume will have the same problem. We will not be able to release this to our customers until this is fixed. Could you kindly update me as to where this issue stands?

For first, it is not correct to compare print job with source PDF file. I can make 1kb PDF file which will produce huge print job (even from Adobe).

By the way, yes, PDF-XChange viewer has troubles with printing, and it is because we are using GDI+ for this task. Now we are working on new printing engine and hope it will be introduced into build 39.

Thanks for your patience.
