Print jobs are large when printing a form

We are printing a standard form that has 4 tables with drop shadows and a bit of shading. No graphics.However when we print the job one page is 1.2MB in the printer queue!

Whats causing this large size?

Cheers

Subject: Its the drop shadow on the tables that increases size by 10 fold!

I created another form without the drop shadow on the tables and viola! Print size decreases from 1.2MB to 108KB for a one page job!

Nasty little gotcha!

Subject: Its the drop shadow on the tables - remove them

Thank you very much, I’ve had the same problem.

On a N5 client, the print job is 722K but on N6 it is 5.80MB so I’ve removed the shadows on tables and the job is a lot smaller.

Notes 5 doesn’t print shadows, but notes 6 does, this is why the job is bigger, not quite sure why it’s so much bigger.
