Very large document = very high memory consumption -> crash?

Post by Matchay »

Hi,

one of our tests produces very large reports (might be even more than 4K pages - but most of it is a simple text). Pdfsaver is using up a huge amount of memory to produce such a document - and in most cases causes memory issues, usually ending up in a crash and missing document (I have a dumpfile of pdfsaver.exe which has about 1.6GB). Is there a way to avoid this? Can we turn off an optimization setting or something to make the pdfsaver use less memory?

Regards,
Maciej

We are working on this now and hope to have some modifications in the next release in perhaps 14 days time or so.

Thanks for your patience.
