If it is just staright-thru printing ie. no special features try 'HP LaserJet
4' for a much smaller sool file than the drivers you mention. Will be much
faster printing as well.
Acrobat reader initself should not be an issue, if your using Adobe writers tho
better to user something such as PDF995 whih is more TS\Citrix friendly however
that may still not help with reducing the spool file size.

Subject: [THIN] Printing PDF's get too big
Hi All,
Got a client running PS4 on Win2K3 SP1, with all patches. Unfortunately, due to
their main line of business app not supporting EMF printing, we are unable to
use the UPD. We are finding that their PDF print jobs get very large...much
larger than the original PDF. Being a WAN environment, we have set a policy for
printer bandwidth to 30k. May seem small, but that's all we can afford to allow
per session. So when printing PDF's, many of them create large spool jobs and
take a long time to print. We have tried PCL5e,
PCL6 and PS drivers, all with similar results. Does anyone have any advice on
how we can cut the size of these print jobs? Would moving away from Acrobat
Reader help?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Cheers.
Kind regards,
