Greetings,

I am currently evaluating Spire.Doc. So far its excellent. I am using a simple 75KB .dot file as a test case. I mail merge 300 records. The file size of the file is 5MB+. When I do the same process with Word Automation, the file is a tenth of that - around 500KB.

Do you have any recommendations on how I can improve the file size generated from your software?

Thanks!

Quick follow up guys.

I had an image in this document. When I removed the image, I got a file size that was a lot better (about the same, 500kb). Maybe there are settings that need be applied on images in side the documents?

Thanks!

Hi Tina,

I just downloaded the hotfix 4.1.3, and am still getting large file sizes. I have a basic word document with a small image. The initial size of the file is 39kb. I mail merge 2000 records, which generates 2000 pages.

When I use ActiveX/Word Automation, the file size generated is 343KB.
When I use your component, the file size is 13MB+.

Could you please take a look at that for me?

Thanks!
