PDFs massive file bloat

Serengeti (Rhino WIP)

Hi, @stevebaer
I just tried to email a client a pdf and the file was 70 megs for a three page pdf.
There must be something wrong both with Beta 7 and rhino 6 as they are both generating huge files. I looked over older pdfs with 6 pages from august of last year and they were under 6 megs. I tried both vector and raster and get the same huge file bloat. Also one file that was six meg a week ago now bloats to 50 meg.

I’ll need a file to try and repeat what you are seeing

I suggest opening it in Illustrator to see what is outside the printable area.

Thanks for the hint but I no longer use illustrator. I did do a select all and zoom selected in Rhino’s paper space and nothing was detected outside of the printable area. I did open the pdf in Photoshop and it also showed nothing outside the printable area.

It happened to me that Rhino was attaching objects not visible in paper space. Reader didn’t see them either.

Thanks Piotr do you think I would see them in Photoshop ?

No way, Illustrator only.

Hi Steve,
One last minor glitch you might see in the uploaded file that I see in both V6 and V7 is that picture frames
change to a darker gamma when set to raster printing. In vector nothing changes.
