We found that when using UPD (XPe FR3) spool size was huge. Installing
correct driver for printer solved this by reducing size up to a factor of
10....We use client mapped printers.

Steve is right, although there's always that handfull of PDF's that behave
really BAD. Not sure what to do about that execpt the obvious: kill as much
graphics as you can, print b&w or just take a picture of your screen ;-)

That is standard behavior and there is nothing inherently that can be done
to change it. This is the reason for third party print solutions that move
the spooling process to the client. So, if this is a real problem in your
environment you can investigate using client side printers with a redirect
print process such as the new UPD from Citrix or Simplify Printing from
Tricerat. However, the if the clients do not locally host the target
printers then you will be stuck with this situation!

Subject: [THIN] PDF's spooling up much larger then actual file
I'm seeing various PDF's send to printers spooling up to MUCH larger then
the actual PDF size. A 100k PDF might spool up to a few megs. This happens
on local computers, not just Citrix, but it's become very obvious with users
on Citrix.
What do I need to do with printer drives to stop this?
