The below method is needed to render embedded fonts, if not included the fonts / text will appear as bullet points.
doc.Convert(new MemoryStream(), PdfFormat.PDF_A_1B, ConvertErrorAction.None);
However, the issue i have with the above method call, is that its takes too long to process. An extra 15 seconds compared to not using the method or using fonts which takes about 3 seconds.
Thank you for contacting support.
Would you please share a narrowed down sample application along with source PDF document and font files so that we may try to reproduce and investigate it in our environment. Before sharing requested data, please ensure using Aspose.PDF for .NET 18.9.1 in your environment.
Hello,
Attached is a demo application that shows the following issues:

We can not find attached application reproducing this issue. Please note that upload limit on forums is 3 MB, if your data is bigger then please share it via Google Drive, Dropbox etc so that we may proceed further to help you out.
Thank you for your response. The file can be downloaded from the below link:

Please, our major issue is the performance of the PDF generation, as it seems to take a lot of time to generate. We have changed the font from OTF to TTF fonts file types. However the time it takes to generate a pdf is still an issue

Please always share narrowed down application for reproducing the problem as there are seven projects in shared solution. Would you please elaborate necessary details about application, program flow and the problem while referencing to respective files.
Please also mention the time consumed by this application for generating the PDF file while mentioning the name of generated PDF file along with the steps to execute this, in order to reproduce the problem. We have tried to Run the application after updating Newtonsoft.Json from 4.5.1 to 11.0.2 and Aspose.PDF for .NET from 18.7 to 18.9.1 but DirectoryNotFoundException occurs. Please share requested information so that we may proceed to help you out. Exception_18.9.1.JPG
Hello Farhan,
Thank you for the response, please can you copy and paste the error / stack trace, so it can enable me address the issue you are having with the demo solution, then i will explain what needs to be done to recreate our issue.

We have managed to avoid this exception and have noticed slow execution of the program. Would you please elaborate the flow of application and other relevant details about it. It will help us if you can share SSCCE application with us so that we may investigate further to help you out. However, below is the StackTrace for your kind reference.

Hello,
We have noticed that the font type MerloRoundRegular is making the pdf generation slow (50 seconds approx time) along with the built in Aspose Convert and Optimze methods. Please is there any suggestion you can provide to improve the time it takes to generate the PDf as well as have the generated PDf below 1mb?

Would you please share a narrowed down code snippet along with necessary data, so that we may try to reproduce and investigate it in our environment.
Hello Farhan,
This is a link of the app that should work in your environment:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/3gruj0p5l88f5kb/ForAspose-Updated.zip?dl=0
Our entire code base takes 1 second, but the below
public static class CreatePDF
Methods:
doc.ProcessParagraphs();
** doc.OptimizeResources**
line 50 and 51
Takes a lot of time, which is a big hit in response time, when a user request the PDF.
Please how can this be improved?
Regards
Sunday
