Hi,


We are getting out of memory exception when we try to optimize large PDF documents (Above 200MB) using below code.

pdfDoc.Optimize();
pdfDoc.Save(filepath);

Below is the exception Trace:

{System.OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type ‘System.OutOfMemoryException’ was thrown.

Hi Chenna,


Thanks for using our API’s.

Can you please share your input/resource PDF, so that we can test the scenario in our environment. As our forums only permit uploading file upto 25 MB, so for larger files, you may consider uploading them to some free FTP and share the link with us. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

We are having the same issue when trying to convert larger HTML documents to PDF. Aspose.pdf appears to be unable to produce a PDF file larger than 400KB. I hope ASPOSE implements a fix for this soon! If not, we will have to switch products for our HTML-to-PDF conversion requirements. Other than this bug, the product (ASPOSE.pdf) works nicely for our needs.

Hi Talil Ahmed,

Any update on this issue (Issue ID: PDFNEWNET-38895)?

We verified this issue in last release of Aspose.Pdf for .NET v10.6.0 (Released on 13-Jul-2015) and the issue is still exists. This issue is very critical for us now. When can I expect this issue will be resolved? Or Do I have any workaround for this issue?

I really appreciate your response on this issue.

Thanks

Hi Chenna,


Thanks for your patience.

We have further investigated the issue PDFNEWNET-38895 reported earlier and it appears to be a known issue. Please note that Linearization process is made over entire document and requires operation with all document objects. This algorithm can not be applied to part of the document and thus it can not be split into “stages”. That’s why large documents will require large amount of memory to load all document’s objects.

We are afraid there is no significant update regarding PDFNET-38895, formerly PDFNEWNET-38895, and increasing the RAM is only possible solution to avoid OutOfMemoryException for now.
