cfdocument printing issues: cf7 vs cf8
Here's what happens when I create a pdf with
<cfdocument> on CF7 vs CF8:
CF7
The generated pdf is 16 pages and 87.6 KB. When I print the pdf the progress bar in acrobat fills up immediately. The total size in the print spooler is 1.18MB
CF8
The generated pdf is 16 pages and 622 KB. When I print the pdf the progress bar in acrobat takes almost 3 minutes to get to 100%. The total size in the print spooler is a whopping 75.5MB
I am using fontembed="false", but that seems to have no effect on the actual filesize either. Also, on the CF8 document I can click all over the place and get these 1/2" x 1/2" blue cubes that show up. They are exactly like the ones you get if you click on an image, only they are in random areas all over the place. One other thing, when I save the CF8 pdf, there is a progress bar in the lower right that says "optimized for fast web viewing". It doesn't do that for CF7.
What is going on here, and what can be done? Users are not able to print anything out in a timely fashion. Thanks.
EDIT:
If I don't import my 3KB css file, the pdf behaves like it does in CF7, minus the formatting of course
