Reducing generated pdf size

Hi,

I have a simple xdp containing only text fields set to read only. A xsd data connection have been set up and the fields are bound to this. Topmost subform are set to repeat when encountering a specific elemet in the xsd.

All works fine when a limited amount of xml is sent to the adobe server. However, when I try with bigger xml files the server times out.

I have noticed that files generated by Adobe LC is generally much bigger than whats generated in a product like Jasper reports. I've tried setting up a similar report in Jasper an after about 3 minutes it returnes with a generated pdf file containg about 700 pdf pages (Adobe LC timed out presented with the same xml-file)

Sending just a small snippet of the xml to Adobe LC Server and Jasper yielded following results:

PDF-size from LC Server: 1MB
PDF-size from Jasper: 150KB

There is no difference in the visual appearance of the pdf files.

(The 700 pages pdf from Jasper reports had just a size of 1MB.)

My questions are:

1. Is there a way to reduce the pdf file size generated by Adobe LC server? (Using a service or somehow?)

2. Can I tweak anything on the server or else where that would make the big-xml job complete without timeout?

Kind regards

Lars
