PDF Large size
Question

šŸ‘‹
I’m working with OutSystems 11 where users upload PDF files.
Some of the files are large, and I’d like to reduce their size before storing them in the database.
Is there any Forge component that supports PDF compression in O11?

What is the recommended best practice in OutSystems 11 for handling large PDF files?
Thanks! šŸ™

Hello.

The best way of knowing if there is any Forge component to compress a PDF file is to search "compress PDF files" in the Forge. It will not give useful results, but try "compress PDF". It will return one paid result.

Maybe the usual approach is to store them without looking at the size.


There are multiple PDF compression tools online. Free ones also. So just pick your favorite and post your own component to the Forge as apparently there is a lack of tools.
