I have an HP J5780 All-in-One device - and use the HP Device Manager<br>
software under Mageia - When I scan a document into a PDF, the<br>
converted document is rather large (5MB) in comparison to the same<br>
document scanned under Windows 7 and the HP scan-to-PDF feature (465Kb)<br>
- Just wanted to know why is this and can I influence how compressed or<br>
compact the PDF document is under Cauldron?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Do you scan at the same resolution? </div><div>The best compression would be to use OCR to get text instead of images but I wouldn't trust it to be accurate</div>

I used to scan with "Acquire Images" or XSane and then paste the scanned<br>
graphic into a LibreOffice document and then create a PDF directly or<br>
use ps2pdf14 to convert a "print to file" postscript output to PDF<br>
(which results in a comparatively small PDF)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Why not generating a PDF directly from XSane?</div></div>
