We are investigating memory usage when generating a PDF with a very large table using the mail-merge functionality of Aspose.Words for .Net. The size of the dataset may be as large as 50.000 to 500.000 rows.
Is it possible to generate the PDF in a steaming manner or restrict the memory usage.
I can send the data in a streaming manner to Aspose using my own implementation of de IMailMergeDataSource.
@ITVendor A responsible developer is on vacation now. I will provide you more information when he will return. However it is unlikely that Aspose.Words will provide streaming mail-merge to PDF without building a full DOM in memory. As a workaround you could try to mail-merge your data by chunks and save it to several PDF files. Then combine Aspose.Words output PDF’s into a single file by third-party PDF processing tool like Aspose.PDF. If you will have more questions or will need with suggested workaround help with please feel free to ask.
