PDF Compression not optimal (comparison with Webtools)

Hi Aspose team,

please find attached project with test project and documents where I compared compression between Aspose components and one of free Web tools.

- Original document (1.pdf) has size of 16.780.369 bytes
- Web tool compressed document (1.compressed (WebTool).pdf) has size of 6.731.730 bytes
- Aspose compressed document (1_compressed (ImageQuality 60).pdf) has size of 12.284.689 bytes
- Aspose compressed document (1_compressed (ImageQuality 10).pdf) has size of 10.044.083 bytes

Test documents are in BIN/DEBUG folder

Can you please try to figure out why Web tool (by comparing documents) has such a smaller size?

As you can see Web tool document does not have noticeable document quality reduction.

Through experimenting with ImageQuality I noticed that 60 is really border below which images will be noticeable bad. Even better would be to use ImageQuality of 70 but that will anyway increase document size.

Main point is like above written if you can find out why Web tool compressed file is almost 40% smaller.

Btw. I somewhere in forum red that in case when Adobe did compression you noticed that Color Palette? was changed thus document size decreased. Is it here also the case? What else is different?

If you can improve compression that would be excellent for my company case (probably some other customer will have same interest).

Hi Oliver,


Thanks for your patience. We have a good news for you, we have implemented two new properties in OptimizationOption class, RemovePrivateInfo and MaxResolution in December 2016 release of Aspose.Pdf for .NET i.e. 16.12.0. These properties will further improve the PDF document optimization feature. With new release you can use these properties as following.

document.OptimizeResources(new
Document.OptimizationOptions()<o:p></o:p>

{

LinkDuplcateStreams = true,

RemoveUnusedObjects = true,

RemoveUnusedStreams = true,

CompressImages = true,

RemovePrivateInfo = true,

ImageQuality = 50,

MaxResoultion = 75

});


Best Regards,

The issues you have found earlier (filed as PDFNEWNET-39316) have been fixed in Aspose.Pdf for .NET 16.12.0.
