I'm using reporting services to generate pdf files, they have images and tables and a bunch of other bits.

I heard that PDFsharp was much better at saving pdf files and producing smaller files, however when I saved the files using PDFSharp the files ended up twice the original size.

Has anyone got any ideas why this might happen?

Thanks

How do I do that?

I thought it was on by default.

The debug build creates (by default) "verbose" PDF files to make them more readable to humans.
The release build creates compact PDF files.

The line that makes the difference is in class PdfWriter:
Code:
#if DEBUG
      layout = PdfWriterLayout.Verbose;
#endif

I'm afraid there is no way to change this behaviour at runtime.
Remove this line if you want compact PDF files even with the DEBUG build.
