Optimizing

Optimize PDF document for archiving

Apply the optimization profile for archiving to reduce the file size while following the archive-typical imperative of preserving all information. Redundant objects are removed, embedded font files are merged and reduced to the subset of used glyphs. Resources are optimized and images are compressed depending on their type.

C# sample:

// Create the optimizer
using (Optimizer optimizer = new Optimizer())
{
    // Choose the optimization profile for archiving
    optimizer.Profile = PDFOptimizationProfile.eOptimizationProfileArchive;

    // Open input file
    if (!optimizer.Open(inputPath, ""))
        throw new Exception(String.Format("Input file {0} cannot be opened. " +
            "{1} (ErrorCode: 0x{2:x}).", inputPath, optimizer.ErrorMessage, optimizer.ErrorCode));

    // Save output file
    if (!optimizer.SaveAs(outputPath, "", "", PDFPermission.ePermNoEncryption))
        throw new Exception(String.Format("Output file {0} cannot be created. " +
            "{1} (ErrorCode: 0x{2:x}).", outputPath, optimizer.ErrorMessage, optimizer.ErrorCode));

    // Close input file
    if (!optimizer.Close())
        throw new Exception(String.Format("Input file {0} cannot be closed. " +
            "{1} (ErrorCode: 0x{2:x}).", inputPath, optimizer.ErrorMessage, optimizer.ErrorCode));

Optimize PDF document with Mixed Raster Content (MRC)

Reduce the file size for documents containing large images, e.g. scanned pages, while maintaining the readability of text. This is accomplished by separating the images into a foreground, background and a mask layer. The foreground and background layers are heavily down-sampled and compressed. The textual information is stored in the mask with a lossless compression type. Additionally, redundant objects are removed, resources are optimized and embedded fonts are merged.

C# sample:

// Create the optimizer
using (Optimizer optimizer = new Optimizer())
{
    // Choose the optimization profile for MRC
    optimizer.Profile = PDFOptimizationProfile.eOptimizationProfileMRC;

    // Set MRC foreground and background layer resolution
    optimizer.MrcLayerResolutionDPI = resolution;

    // Open input file
    if (!optimizer.Open(inputPath, ""))
        throw new Exception(String.Format("Input file {0} cannot be opened. " + 
            "{1} (ErrorCode: 0x{2:x}).", inputPath, optimizer.ErrorMessage, optimizer.ErrorCode));

    // Save output file
    if (!optimizer.SaveAs(outputPath, "", "", PDFPermission.ePermNoEncryption))
        throw new Exception(String.Format("Output file {0} cannot be created. " + 
            "{1} (ErrorCode: 0x{2:x}).", outputPath, optimizer.ErrorMessage, optimizer.ErrorCode));

    // Close input file
    if (!optimizer.Close())

Optimize PDF document for printing

Avoid printing-related challenges with PDF documents. Reduce the overall file size and merge and subset fonts in order to create smaller spool files and reduce the printer’s memory usage. Convert colors to CMYK. Do not remove or alter any information, such as image resolution, that is needed for a well-defined reproduction.
